And yes, I did have to make a stand to work on the upper body by itself.

I got the other arm on and 3 pistons per arm to control it last night. I am working on the head positioning now.

NiftyVT Posted August 26 Author Share Posted August 26 So I had a little order of operations problem I had to think through. There is a part that goes into the main top carapace armor that once installed you cannon access anymore but you can see it! So I painted it up and then did the airbrush work on the carapace and also brush painted the carapace metal grill. Why brush paint the grill now you ask? Well, paint might just splatter through the grill when you brush paint the fine mesh. A a makeup sponge would minimize this but if anything did splatter or drip onto the part underneath. . . its there forever unless you break stuff. The rectangular rusted up part fits into the carapace underneath the metal gill (yes, in the warhound that grill is actually stamped brass. . .very cool!). Once this part is glued in then I can do the FINAL, super ultra final, putty work which will complete the build! Then its time to really dig into the paint! I am really looking forward to painting up the inside of this thing. The Chaos Warhound interior is insanely cool! If I do end up airbrushing more on the carapace I will be masking the heck out of that mesh with big blobs of airbrush putty lol. Lastly, once I get the final putty work done I will get a ton of detailed close ups of everything and a make a 360 GIF.
