It's been ages since I've been on Bluesky, a break from social media was needed. I finally finished the 1/48 Batman 1935 vignette, background and all. Super happy with the outcome! FYI base plane is a Dora Wings Gee Bee Early Versionmolded. I modded.

Had a terrific time at Valleycon today. IPMS Wings and Wheels ran a top notch show and I was happy to be able to help judge the Gundam and Mecha/non- Gundam. Lots of firepower on them tables. Posted a short video on my YouTube channel, www.youtube.com/live/EDy2BHA...

Destroid Spartan 2 of 2. To have your work published by peers is an honor beyond measure and I'm so very grateful. As to the model, green is original plastic all the rest is new and scratchbuilt. I'm extra proud of the base which added to the story I was going for.

Last of the older work, 1 of 2. Arii 1/100 Destroid Spartan. What this model taught me over 16 months about patience, perseverance, and pushing bounds. So very grateful for the experience.

More older work. Completed the 1/20 Amuro Ray figure in 2022, Bright Noah in the late 1980s. I need to do more figures...

I dig this look. 😅

Hat was a gift from many years ago. It became a prop over my work bench but recently cleaned and thought I should finally wear it.

If laughing at, mocking, and gaslighting American citizens brings value, and the Trump regime (in which he deeply believes) thinks it does, then yeah. But here in a sane world, not so much.

I second this, the HG Origin and MSD GMs are absolutely fabulous. Any one you choose will do.

The dio assembly. Painting the dio base is all that's left which I'll be doing with my older daughter.

The prop CA glued to the engine shaft. From this angle, I dig the prop!

The painted prop after satin topcoat (VMS) and prior to Tamiya grey pin wash around the center section and hub.

The paints airbrushed to create the effect. They were super-thinned via MLT and sprayed at relatively low pressure.

Dora Wings 1/48 Gee Bee "Batman 1935" dio WIP: propeller is done! Which means the plane itself is complete! Woohoo!

Dude, those are sweet little tanks! Can I ask where you got them?

Total agreement, wish I had the skills to do so but not on my wheelhouse unfortunately. Maybe the new Bluesky version of IG?
