| Hopefully my entry isnt too late as I am in the US and it is still October 31st here. (I forgot about the time difrrerence..way to procrastinate!) I took an old macross kit I had laying around (500 yen) and repaired the landing gear bays, as well as the antennas on the battroid head. I still had trouble making the paint stick, as the plastic had years of oils soaked into it, even after washing it with soapy water and wetsanding! I built this kit when I was about 14, so don't be too harsh. (it sat unpainted for years) It's the arii 1/100 15th anniversary kit The country is Brazil, since their flag is so cool looking. enjoy! | |

well done. Thanks! I really appreciate that . That was my primary goal for the paint scheme, but I did not want to get too literal. therefore, I spread out the elements and tried to balance the colors. Yellow is intense! | |
