WIP Part 4: Gundam Repair Base Diorama

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 |

The scaffolding are already fixed on the wood base. I used Epoxy for filling the wood. Everything is pretty much steady. I find it difficult to remove the excess epoxy around the flooring because it dries very hard as rock.

Update on my Gundam Repair Base Diorama.

If you have remembered on the Part 2 of this WIP, I only have one side of the plyboard.(17mm thick)
Now, I have another half, same size with the first. I connected it in the middle using Wood Glue.
I also used a plywood (4mm thick) just to support the above plyboard.
Of course, I glued them together and put some nails to make it more fix and secured.

I carved through the plyboard for about 5mm. It is where I will be placing the scaffolding I made before.

WIP Part 14: Bandai MG 1/100 Shenlong Gundam EW: Final Flat Coat & Assemble [Finished]

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5 | Part 6 | Part 7 | Part 8 | Part 9 | Part 10 | Part 11 | Part 12 | Part 13 |

I can't wait anymore for my Flat Clear supply. My hands are urging to finish this WIP and I have been in hiatus for over a week now. I can't do progress on the D-Hell restoration because I haven't bought the epoxy putty I needed. Today, I took my excess flat clear used on my MG Blue Frame. I carefully sprayed evenly on the parts just to make sure I will cover all parts because I only have small amount of flat clear. And I guess I put even coats of flat clear just enough to finish them all. Here are some images I took before keeping Shenlong on its box.
