In Progress » 1/72 A-Wing » Weathering Part 1 »

Posted on Saturday, August 7, 2010, 1:04 pm, by Michael Fichtenmayer, under Commissions, Modeling, Models In-Progress.

Since the last update I’ve gotten through almost all of the weathering steps. Here’s a breakdown of what I did. First I applied a few tan filters then a gray-brown one. This warmed the color tones and gave it a nice dirty worn start to the finish. Once the filters had dried I used various [...]

I got this little gem a few days ago from rb26 at SSM. The size of the A-Wing (from Return of the Jedi) as you can see is small at this scale, but the amount of crisp details packed into this thing are fantastic. It looks like an injection plastic Fine Molds kit rather than [...]

The 38TX is Now Available for Ordering! »

Posted on Monday, May 31, 2010, 10:38 am, by Michael Fichtenmayer, under Commissions, For Sale, Modeling.

Completed » Panzerkampfwandern 38t(x) »

Posted on Thursday, May 6, 2010, 9:29 am, by Michael Fichtenmayer, under Commissions, Completed Models, Modeling.

I applied the pigments the other day and made a new base so this build is done! The other base was not wide enough so a new one was required… the 38t(x) has a leg-span of about 6″ and the old base was done on a 4″ box. Doh! The figure is from the Dragon [...]

“Not back on it, still on it.”  I got my first sample of the 38t(x) from Mig Productions a few days ago to work up for the box art. It’s been a while since I’ve thought about this project so seeing it in this state was pretty exciting. The casting turned out really nice! (Just [...]
