![]() ![]() The work has started to give the outer shell a more interesting look compared to bare MDF. The armor plating is done using
2mm plywood and some balsa wood.
![]() Slow but steady progress, this will probably take the whole next week to get done...
![]() Measure, cut, sand, glue, measure, cut, sand, glue... repeat 54 times and this is the result.
The top has all the wood work done, just going to add some details tomorrow before it is ready to be painted. ![]() The plates are 2mm plywood while the ribs are balsa wood. The biggest advantage of balsa, it is dead easy to cut so a scissor
was all that was needed. Then just put it all in place with some cyanoacrylate glue.
![]() After some more MDF cutting making a removable front panel the whole unit was painted. First two layers of MDF primer, then
two layers of matt black acrylic and finally a bit of magic (drybrushing with brass and pewter colored paint).
![]() It is quite easy to make a ripple in aluminium mesh, just cut out a small piece with a wire snip and then bend the sharp edges inwards.
