Batwing 1/24
« on: December 23, 2019, 04:04:24 AM »
Let's just say that it's a plane :)

AMT Batwing is old set , released close to 1989 Burton's "Batman".
Not bad at all but with some fit problems and strange "peeling" plastic.
I've removed all styrene gun barrels and used brass tubing insteag. Vulcan gun is from Master. Whole model is finisched with Mr.Hobby paints and Ammo Mig weathering products.






Sickening, weakening
Don't let another somber pariah consume your soul
You need strengthening, toughening
It takes a bit of dark to rekindle the fire burning in you
Ignite the fire within you

Excellent in detail features (gun residue etc) and excellent in conveying the bad ass good guy message.   8)
