Well I have added a few bits here and there but my camera battery died so no progress pics. I do have a pic of the vehicle painted below.






I painted it flat black first then sealed it. I did some random sprays of grey then silver, sealed that. Finally gave it 2 light coats of the blue, no sealer. The small piece in the picture has also had the first step of weathering. I decided to sand away some of the paint to expose the grey and black. No silver has shown through yet. Next the plan is to sand the other pieces, give them a wash or 2, then some drybrushing with silver to bring out the details. I am not so sure about the color blue I have so far. I have since done some more sanding and gave it a flat sealer that luckily toned down the blue. I would say it looks about 2 shades darker now so I think I will go with it.

Oh yeah, thats what it needed. It being all the same color to me now is making it looks tons better to these old eyes. On the front page.

I could see some type of Modified AT-AT Pilot, perhaps similar in style to the POTF2 Cruise Missle Trooper manning up this vehicle. Or perhaps the plan is to make it part of the rebel hideout you have already made? Great work.

She is getting there. Since the last update I have sanded all parts, touched up a few black spots then drybrushed as needed with silver. I have not done a single wash on this. I really like the results of the sanding that exposed the black layer underneath. Here are a few pics with bad lighting...

That looks pretty spectacular there, Mr. Spry!  Almost as if it rolled off an assembly line like that.  Very nice indeed!

LE, this is an amazing creation, I love the design, it reminds me of a mini version of Anakins Transport ship from the Clone Wars. I love the paint appliacation and the image with the droid nxt to it...

If you send me images of it in different angles you might just find it popping up in the X-Wing alliance novel!!!

This vehicle has Star Wars written all over it....

Thanks guys, Glad everyone likes her so far. I still have a few things left to do. First on that list is the windows I need to make then detailing the interior.

Julian, yes, it does resemble the Twilight. The day I pulled it out of the box Jaxon said the same thing. when I am done I will get some outside shots from several angles.
