I needed some inspiration and a break from resin armour, so threw this together - it's the old Hasegawa kit, with techmod decals. I've done the kit OOB, not even seat belts, just wanted a quick build. Raised panel lines, but hey ho i've enjoyed doing it, and i'm happy with the dark sea/slate grey camo.

Nothing wrong with that Andy ! I do the same thing as well . A few builds some scratchbuilding and other detailing then the next few builds just out of box even better when no PE parts are used as well !!!

Great looking build ! The blue and grey go very well together for the camo . Also nice to hear from you as well , miss seeing you in the cafe !

That's a nice seagull. I like the camo-shades. It's hard to see where the blue gives way to the green, and that is exactly what camo should be about, right.
