Some of the details are very obviously hand painted. Not that you'd be able to tell from a distance. One question: How the heck would you take that thing anywhere? You'd need to strap it to the roof of your car, and I don't think that would be very safe. Very cool though -------------------- "Nu ani anqueatas" Aban's Illustration The Official Website of Shannon McRandle Registered: Oct 1999  |  IP: Logged Jason Abbadon Rolls with the punches. Member # 882 posted                       The interior section rotates and I think that it is modular at those pieces...but you'd still need a truck and lots of padding. -------------------- Justice inclines her scales so that wisdom comes at the price of suffering. -Aeschylus, Agamemnon Registered: Aug 2002  |  IP: Logged Nim The Aardvark asked for a dagger Member # 205 posted                       I'd rather he did the Babylon 4...

Member # 393 posted                       It does, just to a directory listing though. It's good work, and the hand-painted elements make it almost look more real than a perfect 3D mesh and skin. . . -------------------- Never mind the Phlox - Here's the Phase Pistols Registered: Jul 2000  |  IP: Logged Aban Rune Former ascended being Member # 226 posted                       Oh, I like the fact that it's hand painted and that it's a physical model. I just wish he had used a stencil or something when painting on some of the markings and various greebles. Some of them look good, but there's one picture on there that really looks shaky. Just my opinion. I think it's a great model. -------------------- "Nu ani anqueatas" Aban's Illustration The Official Website of Shannon McRandle Registered: Oct 1999  |  IP: Logged First of Two Better than you Member # 16 posted                       "This page cannot be displayed."
