Anyway I'm working on a HG Amazing Zeta on my 40 for 40, my plan as it is right now is to skip the transformation stuff and go for a fixed pose something along the lines of a Zeta-Cannon. So far it has come together really nicely and the colour separation on this kit is brilliant.
The Schedule:
-I completed the torso at 7:14.
-Completed head shoulder and arms and started removing the seams in the shoulders and head by 8:59.
-Legs, waist were done and the seams in the shoulder and head were polished out by 12:59.
-Weapons and backpack were snapped and I had started to remove the seams in the rifles by 3:00 PM.
-Then I spent a good 5 hours knocking out the ugly peg holes in the backpack that won't be used and their associated kibble, and that gets me to 14 hours in.
-Day 2 was pretty much all about paint
-Base coat and panel line wash was done by 5:00 PM.
-Completed final assembly and matte coat by 6:29 PM.
-In the process of touch ups until time runs out at 10:00 PM.
At this point I'm very pleased with how this turned out from beginning to end, and my modifications on this one were pretty minor so I would have plenty of time and I kept the colour selection pretty basic to match.
Speaking of for this kit I used:
-Vallejo Surface Primer Gray
-Vallejo Model Color Sky Blue
-Vallejo Model Air Camouflage Gray
-Vallejo Model Air Light Gray
-Vallejo Model Air Red RLM23
-Vallejo Model Air Metallic Signal Red
-Vallejo Metal Color Jet Exhaust
-Vallejo Metal Color Dull Aluminum
-Vallejo Polyurethane Matt Varnish
