Thanks for your messages guys!

It is still in the same stage. I have been busy on two comission jobs. I will get back to it soon

How soon?

Family health issues kept me away from here last year at this time, so I missed this thread. I'd love to see where you're at with it, even if it's not finished. Now I'm going to pull mine out of the stash to drool over it.

Damn, I'm almost one year late! I have to get back at it!

I'm working a lot for the moty contest and it is about figures this year.

I will dig the outrider from the shelf. I'll keep you in touch

[StevenBills]

Sweet! Looking forward to it!

Thanks for your comment. I got it from Jimi indeed.

You scratch built those characters? Awesome job.

Thanks Donnie, yes I did. I use the characters from the echo base set and I modified them

Here are the next steps:

Wirring then closing the outrider.
It has been really hard not to break the optic fibers.











Then I glued the trench parts.
It was time for the paint: a flat black layer followed by a modified white:
I made a first coat of white, then only the panels.
