Skuld is very cute especailly when she's in SD form! Divert from my normal girls/mech genre I needed something for a gift, and this is it.

 

Kit Review

Seam lines: ?/5   Pinholes: ?/5   Casting: ?/5   Fit: ?/5   Part Break: ?/5   Help

This is a vinyl kit and the fit is ok. The hammer is cast in white metal but the metal was quite soft. When I tried to straighten it, it broke! Needed to repin it.

 

Building

I had a lot of fun doing stray hair, especially when they are part of the character design that calls for lots of flowing hair coming out of everywhere. The hair is made of styrene sheets; they are less easy to get bent out of shape like sheet metal but they are also quite breakable when they're cut in thin strips.

Painting - nothing major, but I wasn't very good in masking and always overspray somewhere. Eventually I handpainted a lot of areas.

The base is a candle holder... it's so difficult to drill into, so I just glue Skuld on top of it, with fingers crossed.

I had the white metal polished to a high shine, but let that be my first lesson to how coating will affect the reflective index of the media! I tried to protect the shine with Mr. Metal Primer and the shine was reduced by quite a bit... so much for the polish work...

I didn't have my DC265 with me at the time of picture taking, so these pictures looks different from others. Actually the DC210 wasn't half bad but I couldn't get the control I needed.
