I'll have to try out that lens technique of yours next time. <br /><br />I had a devil of a time with glue fogging up the insides of the canopies on mine, though; how'd you manage to keep it so clear?Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04264386981291406144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519319818452068646.post-33174812691573345542010-03-04T19:17:42.821-05:002010-03-04T19:17:42.821-05:00To do the lenses I just painted them black with a ...To do the lenses I just painted them black with a red gradient that got more intense towards the bottom of the lens.

And I totally agree on the complexity of the model- I think it took me about 3 hours to assemble, 2 hours to magnetize and about 5 hours to paint the damn things... and that wasn't with even close to the level of detail that you've got!<br /><br />Also agree on the enamel spray problem- it led to my GW washes looking all streaky. At some point I'll invest in a spray brush...Maxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12478821172146809894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519319818452068646.post-82049606039041346222010-03-04T17:32:04.813-05:002010-03-04T17:32:04.813-05:00These look really good.

For some reason, one well-painted model looks nice, but two or more just seems to look more than twice as good :D BTW, how did you do the lens effects?
