Let's Begin! |
I really like the head of the Nu, it is sleek and mean. The side vents and the three face vents are hollow and allow the inner frame portion of the head to add the color. The only panel lining I did was the frontward facing vents and the side grooves on the head. I also painted the Vulcan Cannons because they were a rather boring white the blended in with the head. Had they been an off white then I do not know if I would still would painted them. Somethings to note; the V Fin, while awesome, feels brittle and very thin. Just be cautious with it. Color wise I love the black thing holding the V Fin down. But... hate the foil sensors that go behind the V Fin and on the under backside of the head.
Rage and Heart Palpitations |
Ah the chest portion. It went together smoothly, feels really light. No negative comments thus far, I mean really? It is the bare chest. The PsyCom (?) frame is a little pain, just because of the foil stickers that go on the underside of it. They are "supposed" to add more a metallic reflection so the frame is easier to see once the armor is on... but honestly I do not see the big difference. I might paint the those parts in the future, if I settle on a color choice.
Waist part |
The foot is nice. I am digging the ankle ball rotation. I want to paint to it a Black Chrome but do not know what I have to do in order to get that the effect. Anyone else know?
A shot of some of the leg *Wink Wink*. Those pistons are really nice, but again, they show and look rather plain unpainted. Leg movement in general is nice. Nothing bad to say yet, nothing wowing to say yet either. Solid legs.
Here is where I am at now. I will be needing to make a run to the store for thinner and paint, so painitng will have to wait. Until then I have been panel lining some of the weapons and armor pieces. Oh when I panel line I use a mechanical pencil. On white armor it looks nice and easy to smudge some shading on. Maybe I will do a page on how I do it and why I like it.
