Second to last: Valkyrie, proxying as Hippolyta. I basically tried to copy @Onionknight's version. His is still much better , but I'm happy with mine as well. I think it's the best gold NMM I managed to pull off so far. Massive props to Mr. Onionknight for the fantastic reference. Bonus Fun Fact If you magnetize her and a Fuzzbot and put both of them on the same base, you get a very cheap and inauthentic Andromeda proxy :P
this paintjob looks great! Unfortunatly i am not a big fan of Valkyries modell (not one design of hers realy hits me, which is sad, for i realy want to like her), but what you made out of it looks amazing. Apart from the great looking nmm shield i fancy the blue of the design most. Magnetizing her to get an Andromeda proxy is a smart idea, although i cannot find a reason to not play the original modell, since it is one of the most beautiful modells of the whole game imo. Still a great idea =)
I wonder, have you tried taking photos of your models against a black background and compare? I would say your Valkyrie paint job is on par with Onionknight's. The only difference is different backgrounds causing the eyes to perceive colours differently.
Thank you! I did in the past, but I found the results with my new lightbox very disappointing, so I'm sticking with the white background for now. Someone once suggested using a black t-shirt, so I might try that at some point. Thanks! You're right about the original Andromeda model, it's great. The reason I'm not using it is because it's been turned into a Zondnautica and a Roadbot, and I'm not a big enough fan of the profile to warrant painting her a second time ;)
Hey guys, I know I still haven't posted a full group shot of my finished O-12, but here at least is a group shot of everything I painted for my space UN last year: That's 21 models, which isn't too bad, especially since that means my O-12 backlog is completely gone. Let's see if the new sectorial CB teased for this year's Adepticon will have me come back to this army or not...
Not really painting anything O12 right now, but I did recently take a little scenic group shot of my finished collection:
Me :D Thank you btw! I found one more thing I haven't shared yet. I added two Madtraps to my collection last year after I found out my Gangbuster kinda needs them. Gave one of them a shield so I can use it as a Tinbot. I stupidly forgot to photograph the front of the shield, but it says "99", in honor of the funniest cops who ever appeared on TV :)
