Blood for the Baron!

andy on the panther did you spray both the top half and bottom half when it was disassembled? it's just that im doing something with a panther which consists of spraying both halves but i was a bit concerned about when it comes to putting it back together if the back end where the lights are is likely to get damaged when pushing it together?

I didnt spray the bottom half, i know the original is slightly darker gray than I wanted ( which can be seen if you compare it to the painted rollbar) but I didnt think it was worth spraying slightly lighter.

I dismantled the panther and just sprayed the top shell.

oh ok mate thanks for that, i'll have to wait and see how it goes, guess i can always touch it up if it does get a bit scuffed and hopefully the stickers will cover it up anyway

the two parts slide together quite tightly, I think the back hooks on first and then the front end snaps into place. so the front is where the paintrub will occur .... good luck !

andy, was the Bombardier figure hard to do and what figure was it you used to make him?

Bombadier is a simple repaint of Flash, figure and accessories are identical.

cheers mate, do you have any paint references for the colours used on him at all?
