Still not pleased with some of the details on this bugger, but I'm getting bored and want to move on! ?This weekend I'll prime and basecoat (in between bouts of drywalling!).

Very nice.  How did you do the rivets?  I would go insane making all of them.

Looks great!
I even like it better than the original mini as it has so much neat details like the teeth, lots of rivets, gun copulas .....

I love it! So often people just try and do something totally different, and it ends up looking weird, but you've kept the basic design of the official SG model and gone from there. It looks fantastic - can't wait to see it painted!

Thanks for the kudos, everyone!

Vanvlak, the rivets were made using a tool called a "pounce wheel".  More discussion on that here:
