Sorry guys been a long time since I posted anything on this forum so feeling my way with the upload thing. Hum, maybe I'll just post in straight from photobucket?

Been working on the old girl on and off since 2011. It has Fujimi's own PE plus Veteran models turret set.

Hope you like it?

Hi Jose



If I remember correctly I use Tamiya buff with a slight brown oil wash. Never been too happy with shiny white blast bags.

Regards

Andrew

Wow, what an amount of detail in this scale! That pagoda alone is very impressive.

Congrats!

Beautiful Hiei. I have this in my pile of "to do" kits, though I plan to include the Laffey closing on the behemoth.

You mentioned that you used Veteran's turrets. Is there a big issue with those included in the kit?
