Hi everyone I've licked my raspberry ripple and it's now finished.


The kit was from Revell 1/72 part of a job lot and came with no decals so I had to raid the spare box.


A great kit which fell together nicely and comes highly recommended . Paints from vallejo and finished and sealed with Klear floor polish/wax .A great sig build idea and I really enjoyed it thanks for looking and any comments left cheers John.View attachment 114760

Top job john , it looks the business . Ive heard great things about this kit and youve really done it justice . That paint job looks mighty tricky but you nailed it , and the base looks excellent too , great build cheers tony

That's an excellent build John! It looks bigger than 1/72 & the base sets it off perfectly :smiling3:


It's making me want to raid the freezer for ice cream!

John,


I love your work on this. Do you have any more info for the build itself? I was hoping that those involved would be able to share our successes and disasters with recreating this scheme.


There's plenty of time for another one!

The build was simple it's a kit that goes together like a dream a credit to revell so no problems or disasters there. The scheme to be honest was very simple just careful masking using tamiya masking tape. Finished of in klear floor polish/wax. I'd love to do another but I'm already behind on the group/sig builds.


Just like to add I really enjoyed this one and it was a good idea and I'm happy that I took part cheers john.

Thanks John.


This paint scheme will be a challenge for me.
