Hello,

Finished yesterday...

Some new surfaces made of AMMO anti slip paste and new stand.
I've also changed colors a bit to make'em more...contrasting. Burned-up tiles and "new" hull panels were painted with use of DSPIAE masks. Some minor weathering was done with AMMO fluids.
And here it is - not well known spaceship from well known novel series :)

Nice work!  :thumbsup:

I've seen the Glador from time-to-time but this is a nice, fresh take on it.  :mellow:

Nice one. :thumbsup:

I take it that's the Revell kit? Did the stand come with it or did you nick that from something else?

I saw them mentioned in UK Scale Models ages ago - always had a hankering for one, but well... never seen one here, and it'd be silly prices if I ever did.

But that's a very nice job!  :thumbsup:

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.  Revelling in numptytism.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed, badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry.

Its from rather old german sci fi novels titled Perry Rhodan. Kit has no transparent parts, all is done with paints.

Great job on the Glador, especially the hexagonal shading/masking.

Revell-Germany released a series of kits from the Perry Rhodan universe in 1999-2000. Fit varies from stunningly bad to just OK.  The Perry Rhodan Blues Ship is considered a rare kit these days.
