Next up.
As with the Atreides, Good detail,good fit, Wing ball joints a PITA.
I DID NOT GLUE the blades this time so it can be displayed flying or landed with wings stowed.

Tried some BMF on the windsheild as to maybe use it as a base coat under clear blue or green or maybe another color.
Have a good night,fellas.

O.K. Ready for some basecoat. With a bit of help from Mr.H,I have decided to go with some XF-84. Dark iron.
Later,Lads.

Thanks muckers.
Base coat applied. Tamiya XF-84, dark iron. Looks like a dusty black,yeah?

Thanks Jeff, so a chrome paint might give the same effect? Is what I sometimes do with periscopes and lamps, chrome paint with green, yellow, blue or red transparent Tamiya paint.
