Una disculpa porque está en inglés todavia me falta traducirlo al español, , pero cualquier pregunta tengan un poquito de paciencia que si responderé con gusto
Let´s begin with the pieces, not so many, only 19 pieces, but she is HUGE! really HUGE! so wwon't be easy to stand, I will need brass lines 3mm and 2mm and plastic round bars for the weapon, she is heavy and I don't want to add more weight.
Now the sand work, not easy either, even that they are large pieces there are so many places to sand. Now the bubbles appear you may see so many pinholes after the sand work:
I have to fill those pinholes and dont' want to obver sand
If I over sand so many details will be lost:
So now I will cover those lines and pinholes with super glue mixed with babypowder, it is a very good mix and cheaper than the putty
Now I have to sand the extra mix:
Now the drillong work, this time I have to use my dremmel, the drill I will are 2mm and 3mm and has to be a large hole:
To keep the fingers on the hand drilled with 0.5mm
Back to dremel this time with a 3mm drill:
Now the weapon, used a [url=http://www.hlj.com/product/TAM70133" target="_new">3mm Plastic Round Bar from Tamiya, and for the other side added some magnets:
So It will be easy to add the wepon at the end :
The weapon is so difficult to sand, need to get those cool files from Gaia notes, but mean while I have to
work harder, some árts have to be drilled to let them in the right place:
Now lets put some parts together, almost finished:
it is time for a bath, I ususally leave the pieces 2 days in watter with dish soap, after those days now I wash the figure with a toothbrush:
Let them dry about 1 day, after I apply Mr surfacer 1200 to discover parts not sanded or filled:
After is sanded dn thise pinholes filled Mer white bese is applied:
At last piant! first color Flesh:
Let´s continue with heair and clothes:
The weapin and the wings, the first color Iused on was Model Master Classic Black:
The gold color is applied over the black and don't know why but the effect is cooler with the black base:
Now that the paint from the clothes are dried, the stripes are the next step:
I have to add liquid masking, don't waht spots:
For the eyes use this lovely marker:
She is extremely Heavy! so I have to use more brass line that I thought:The base was covered with [url=http://woodlandscenics.woodlandscenics.com/show/Item/FT-GG/page/1" target="_new">green grass
The figure is finished:
