00 Raiser- Modest Progress

I'm almost done with the main body of 00. Just need the head and arms. 

Spraying white acrylic is my least favorite thing about this kit. It's either too thin or thick and sprays splattery all over the kit. I don't have that trouble with any other color. White probably has more solids in it and needs more thinning i guess. 

This kit is my first real attempt at pre-shading and it looks ok. I did have trouble with a few of the tiny dry transfer decals and ruined a few of them. I definitely prefer the waterslides. 

After the 00 I need to paint the 0 Raiser. I think in the end this kit will look ok.

small update - 00 raiser

Legs are coming along. Did some shading and covered with Vallejo white. Spraying white is tricky.

Used a combination of kit decals and Samuel Decals 00 set. Everything is covered with Vallejo Matt Varnish. I might have to do some weathering since the finish is not great. Lots of lint in the finish.
