Revell TIE Fighter done

This was a fun little build, even though I just had to re-do the back end as the fit was'nt brilliant;

The base is actually a tin of mints with some lead and car filler put inside to add more weight (the mints were removed first by the way).
The black paper gave some weird reflections in the lens but it worked out well as they look like stars :o)

A productive couple of days!

I've had some time at the bench the past two days and managed to get a couple of projects moved on a bit more. Starting out with the neglected zombie figure and bike rider I undercoated the figures and bike yesterday;

Today the fuel tank and mudguards on the bike were painted, the Revell kit of Vaders TIE fighter was also painted using a mix of Tamiya XF-53 Neutral Grey and XF-8 Blue (near-as-dammit being my guide)

After a pin wash of Mig Dark Brown yesterday the Miniart Personenwagen received a coat of matt varnish today and while I was in the mood it got a blast of a dusty looking Tamiya colour, building it up around the back end;

Quite a productive couple of days for a change!
