Bandai 1/12 Kylo Ren
This was a fun build. Bandai have kept trying new ways to do capes. Ren's is a soft flexible material that holds really good surface detail. I sprayed it black. Bandai kits are coloured right out of the box but they look a lot better if you paint them. Even painting them the same colour makes them look better. sprayed silver for his mask. Black/grey most elsewhere. He doesn't have a big colour pallet.
My first totally completed of 2018
Not my 'forte', but a nice lookin' rendition all the same.
Thank you sir
Very nice indeed Aaron. R2D2 next?
Thank you. I have R2 on the bench and a Y-Wing to do.
I gotta get started on my Y-wing! (At last we have a good model of one. It's been too long!) I do hope they bring out a B-wing too.
I love it! Keep up the great work.
Like his Uncle Darth, he is pretty much done in basic black or black/gray, as you did! Ha! (Unless he removes his mask, of course.)
Its a little annoying. When you have the painted/unpainted side by side its clear. But with the pallet being so limited it doesn't look like a lot of work went into it.
Nice!
Thank you Robert
Unusual model. If you want to make the model a bit more visual interesting you may try dry brushing some bits using slightly lighter shades of "black" to give some depth to detailing.
I did use a light grey dry brushed on the back of his robe. he is 1/12 so decently large. I think I would have preferred to use my airbrush for the purpose but it was packed away.
I'm afraid that Sci Fi isn't my thing, although I was a fan of the early Dr Who programmes. Whatever, I can appreciate the work and effort put into this model, thanks for sharing with us.
Thank you Sir
