QS, Sounds like you've been an avid modeler for quite a while. Have fun. PS - please subscribe if you haven't already to help us reach more modelers! -Doug
@@RightOnReplicas just barely got back into it actually. Went down the rabbit hole on youtube and am doing a p47 now. Gonna take what I learned and use it on the robot
LH, Yes and no. when this was reviewed 6 years ago we used some Dupont automotive silver with 10% medium blue in a custom mix through an airbrush. A close match today is Dupli-Color Light Blue Metallic bgm0539. Thanks for watching and please subscribe if you haven't already to help us reach more modelers! -Doug
Weekend build? It’s taking me forever to get this together. I had an orange peel spray paint issue and had to sand off the first coat. Stay tuned... th-cam.com/video/6pB4WjAR5jE/w-d-xo.html
Haha!! I agonized over the color while picking out paint. I was going to 100% screen accurate. I used Blue Angel Blue Model Master paint with a matte overcoat. I think that was pretty close...by the way, I took some artistic license and left off the decals. I also kept the legs silver....live dangerously, lol!!
Since I have one in my Stash I was really glad to see you do this buildup. Thanks.
Thanks Utah - Build 'er up! -Doug
Finally nabbed one of these after looking about on EBay and so forth for ages.

Thanks Charlie, I thought this was cool when I found it at a local hobby shop! -Doug

LM, It's OK. Happens to everyone. Carry on! -Doug
Thanks for the review. I might break all the rules and paint one olive drab as a variation. Maybe mine could be the “Army” version of the robot!
LM, Good luck but watch out for the sci-fi police! -Doug
My robot is done! Thanks, Doug, for the inspiration! Enjoy this 45 second build movie: th-cam.com/video/26H4tKAbDw4/w-d-xo.html
