The kit looks great. I love the style of plate you use. Makes the kit look meaner and bigger then what is expected. looking forward to its finish!!!

Phew... just finished this! Working on it through the whole night and I'm reporting for work in 2 hours time! Man....I'm deadmeat today.

No diorama this time, just a simple base as support.

It was really enjoyable doing this especially in the modding and scratch building of the cleaver. The more challenging phase was during the concept stage since I have lots of ideas and simply cannot make up my mind.

And I finally learn how to paint some camo patterns. I have to resprayed quite a few times until I was satisfied with the final result.

I have to admit that this is one tough kit to handle being the fact that it is extremely brittle. Most of the parts cracked beyond repair and I have to get another one to replace those parts.

And I guess I'm happy with the final product...

Well enough said, here are the pictures....

Wow, truely awesome finish my friend. I love the details, and the cleaver has made me think of this one as "MS Cloud" in my head.

Dude that Kamp is sick. Amazing detail all over well done sir. Well done.

Captain Obvious · July 01, 2007, 08:52:29 PM

Very, very awesome. So much detail, and so clean and sharp too. You have to do a styrene cutting tutorial some day.

thegreatsze · July 16, 2007, 06:07:17 PM

and all this in a HDB flat, in a country where topcoat almost always frosts - well done mate.

orange · July 16, 2007, 10:56:15 PM

Thanks again guys,

@ thegreatsze - frosting is really a pain in the a$$ when you are rushing to complete a kit!

FichtenFoo · July 17, 2007, 08:32:13 AM

(now that it's over I can reply to all the winners... wanted to avoid that before judging)

Fantastic job Orange. There's only one thing that really bothered me about it and that was a silvered decal. But just one. Very cool though with all the mods and add-ons. Congrats!

orange · July 17, 2007, 08:56:08 AM

Thanks Mr FF.

My only grouse is that I am very bad in time management, always finishing kits at the eleventh hour. I really need to give myself a week allowance or even more after I finish a kit, and try to fix those decals and mistakes.

Thanks anyway! please keep up with the good work you have done for this forum!
