What a beautiful spaceship, and the usual Bandai quality, no glue or paint needed but of course, it looks much better painted.

Then disassembled and separated up into different colours for painting.

Some detail painting, pin washes and weathering really give it a more detailed and realistic look.

@anthonyricco - Amazing, 2 builds at the same time. The space battleship Yamato looks to be a very cool kit. Your progress with the painting looks fantastic.

Thanks a lot Brian @brithebuilder - haha I usually have 3 on the go at a time, 1 x military, 1 x civilian and 1x scifi, that way I never get bored and always have something to do if I'm waiting for paint of glue to dry.

Thanks a lot man, its a really cool kit - I'd highly recommend it.

Thanks a lot John @johnb - yeah love these kits but they really pop if some paint and weathering is done.
