Title: Coleopters and more
Post by: renax on September 18, 2010, 01:36:01 AM
Hi all,
this is the next of this post:
http://www.whatifmodelers.com/index.php?topic=26837.new;topicseen#new

the subject has evolved,
its now more around coleopters.

These models were to help the drawing of comics.
thats why they often dont look finished or very clean.

thank you;

I re-used the idea of an embarked Coleopter in another comic project,

(yes , I know, its a "fantasm" isnt it ?)

The yacht model is Onassis's one, "Christina O"

Its a friend of mine
a very good modeler who did the painting of the
"heavy" coleo;


he also did the submarine deck 1/72 model,
based on studies drawings I did for the comic.
