Two years of on-and-off work. Hobbyboss + AKAmodel PE set, supplemented with planes from a Tamiya equipment set (OOB plane was inaccurate). Some final notes on the build: - First and foremost I would like to apologise for the use of PE figures as opposed to the ION model ones I have lying around in my stash. My "excuse" is that towards the end of the build my motivation was waning quickly and I was not in the mood to have to hand-paint several dozen 3D printed figures. Next time I will definitely use them! - I opted to paint the Seirans as prototypes although I'm not sure the two specific aircraft I've depicted were actually mounted onto the I-400s. They just looked cooler than the regular green ones and were also a bit easier to paint. - Having shot my models using my smartphone thus far I have just transitioned to a proper camera + tripod setup. I have a rudimentary understanding of the basic stuff (aperture, shutter speed, ISO) but there is still much to learn. Will potentially update this thread with a few more photos soon. Thanks for taking a look at my work and as always, feedback is appreciated ![]() Attachment: Attachment: Attachment: Attachment: Attachment: Attachment:

Nicely done. Really like the color contrast the prototype scheme aircraft brings to the model. |
