Ok so finished my fichtenfoo gondola antigravity racer diorama. It looks like the Alchemy Studio gondola has a slight lead on the Industri Mechanika racer. Two photos one as is and one with a bit of photoshopped work to see what it might look like with real antigrav

Slow but steady progress on the industria mechanika / fichtenfoo AG racers. I am waiting for a few items to add. I made the industria mechanika decals (quite a task) and the standard caution etc decals come from my collection on Mecha decals. Also added some heat effect where the thrusters will go

A bit of progress on the @fichtenfoo Antigravity Gondola Racer. A mixture of Mr Color and MRP lacquers, AK markers.

Ok Sat morning - Rigging 95% complete. Now need to add sails to finish rigging. Still a ways to go, rails, crew, stand and a couple of extras I'm adding which aren't included. Starting to look pretty good (I think 🤔)

Saturday 's progress on the catamaran.
Hulls complete and have assembled the three major structures save the mast. Next comes the mesh between the hulls which will be an adventure. Then it's on to rigging, railing,sails, and crew.

Slow but steady progress on the PlayStation catamaran. All decals are on the hulls, other parts and all gloss coated with Gaia X 03. Just added the railing posts on one side of the hull. Had to measure locations and size from photographs of the boat as the kit did not include the railing

Some paint progress on the PlayStation Catamaran. A lot of strip masking and painting. A bit more to go then dealing and detail assembly. Not a lot of parts but complicated paint job.

So started second meeting model of 25. Something new for me, trying to recreate sails. Here we have teabag paper already given a wash of water/pva glue and the styrene being added for the battens. Now what ship is this? More to come when I start on the hulls. (Clue).

First 2025 model, the Suyata Mechanical Dynastes MM 001 part of the Marvelous Museum line. Done as an industria mechanika steampunk version. All of the "shell" body parts are removable and all of limbs and joints are poseable. Painted with Mr Color metals, Alclad metals, AK Xtreme Metals.
