hollowneck Posted June 15, 2024 #97 Posted June 15, 2024 Very well done, Rod! A unique treatment and coloration(s) for this kit from Vanguard. Also, a nice decision to have your model photographed by a pro. After all the work, countless hours involved, I don't consider any of my models completed until I've got a decent set of professional photos in-hand. Congratulations. What's next?
