My scratchbuilt Archelon is finished

Weeeee, finally. It’s been 1½ years since I last completed a model, but finally, I can once again experience the sweet sensation of “a job well done”.

Well enough said. Let’s see some pictures:

Well that was it… Glad to have finally finished this one…

… well I’m off to the next project. More Ma.K. to come……………….

Archelon near completion

I’ve gotten a bit further with my scratchbuilt Archelon, although it might not be that clea on the pictures :D

I’ve done the following:

  • Painting detail
  • A coat of Future
  • Decals
  • Making scratchmarks on the details and decals
  • A coat of matt varnish
  • A coat of dark greyish-blue wash

Here’s some pics:

All that’s left now, is some weathering with pigments and Lifecolor Tensicrome and a base.

Scratchbuilt Archelon almost finished

I’m finally getting close to the finishline with my Archelon, which I started almost a year ago.

Follow this links to see, how it started out…

I’ve only brushpainted this model, and using a wetpalette, so I could paint wet-in-wet …. pretty kewl technique, but I need practice  Grin

All that there’s left to do on this is some details, markings, weathering and a base.
