I bought this model at discount for about 100 yen at the Shinjuku branch of one of the few miniatures and analog gaming stores in Japan, Yellow Submarine. It’s a pretty simple sculpt, and I initially got it purely for testing some new techniques, specifically those outlined in Dallimore’s books on using simple yet effective methods for painting gaming models. In the end, I came to appreciate the model more during the prepping stage. I put more effort than planned in the flesh and the red, but kept the rest very simple. It’s not a showstopper, but I’m happy with the results.
For those interested, the red, green-grey, green, black, and metal were all painted using the respective Andrea Color paint sets.
