[ben-grimm]

Hi

I think it'is useless to introduce you this KIT.

With some french friend (Ezechiel, Nico2 .....) with decided to wake up you little french forum by
strating a O.S.S.D project . In french "On Se Sort les Doigts"  Project.

If I translate word to word it mean : "Get your finger out of your ass  ". It's a french expression to say
WAKE UP GUY IT TIME TO MAKE SOME NEW KIT AND PROVE THAT FRENCH GUY CAN MAKE SOME GOOD ONE  .

So Each of the first menber decided to make for the end of the this year some big project.

I chose REMORA.

So some pics below

Sunday work :

- A layer with a GERMAN GREY XF-63 TAMIYA.
I will use this layer to simulate the metal colors on the boat hull.



I decide to start with the little crane.

- A layer with the XF-63
- A layer of hear spray
- A layer of the rust main color : HULL RED XF-9 TAMIYA

Because I want to draw level with this kit I made all my test on this 1/35 Mecha Arm used in a
1/35 old diorama.

So I used "Life color" to simulate some rust color variation.





We can saw the difference between the RED-HULL on the crane



I used brush and blister sponge to this

Looks like your off to a good start, the rusty test on the mech arm looks great.

Will be following with interest

- Some litlle touch of : LEMON YELLOW X-8 TAMIYA

Looks like a fun build. Viva la france, I suppose.

I did the same technic with the boat hull. I will work and the crane before make the deck.
In fact I really don't know the color I will use for the hull.

Fantastic. I gotta know, how did you do that repair weld look on the sheave pin on the crane. I'm amazed.
