Скачать или смотреть AMT Batman 1989 BATWING 1/25 Scale Model Buildup

While still utterly addicted to all things Batman '89, I decided to finally finish my old AMT kit that my brother gave me several years ago, and in so doing, wrap up a vehicle for the set!

The model was a pretty much straight up build with no lights or outside extras. Used good old Tamiya's Extra Thin cement for the glue, a staple of all my styrene builds of late, and hand painted it with Vallejo acrylics.

Moel went together pretty smoothly, top, bottom, hull area, cockpit, windscreen, bits.. I went with in-flight also, as I am not a big landing gear guy anyway, and this model comes with a great in-flight stand. SO, off to the races and after a steady build and paint, it came together without too many hitches.

My biggest challenge was the exterior, which usually gets a solid black paintup, and did the last time I tackled this kit a LONG time ago (that model lost to time and moving...) and I felt this go round, I wanted to try to capture that sort of graphite finish the movie plane seemed to have.
Plus, itjust looks cooler and has that Anton Furst style, tarnished Gotham City thing going on with it! Let's call it the '89 Batman movie aesthetic....

Had a blast! Hope you enjoy what I did, and feel free to comment on it!

Til next time,
Les out!
