my FM Gold squadron

[darth_daniel]

Hi everyone,
here´s my Gold squadron by FM. They´re still missing the final matte clearcoat and the droids, and some customisation parts a friend of mine is working on, to correctly depict the different versions of Ys. Luckily those can be added without any major rework/repaint.
I hope you can click through the albums as posting all the pics would take a lot of time.
I only used the yellow decals and the TIE kill marking, everything else, the blue markings as well, is paint.
Let me know what you think of the paint job.

All three together:

Dan, nice job bro, i like! I agree though, you need a Red Jammer lol.
Your paint is doing fine buddy, well in your capabilities now to paint a studio model.....if you know what i mean!

Wow, I never thought I would be impressed by the small scale of the these models but you really made them impressive looking! Great build/paint up bro!

 

[ralphee]

I may snag one of these on seeing these build ups, id like a mini Red Jammer to go along with my studio one lol, again im not a fan of small kits, but they do look very cool, fair play to Finemolds, they have done a fantastic job!

Awesome! Those look really great. :thumbsup
I have GOT to pick up one of these things for my Finemolds fleet!

Thanks guys! Lee, wait some time until Marlon will be ready to sell his upgrade parts. We were working on a list of parts for all the Ys, like vanes, LEM, Lotus part etc, and he´s doing some red-Y specific parts as well. I´ll wait with my 4th kit till those parts will be around.
And yes, I feel fit for painting a SS Y now.

If there were no real-world size references in your shots, it'd be hard to tell they're NOT studio scale! Nice work!

Absolutely right. I didn't realize how small they are. That's beautiful work.
