I really love this paint scheme with the dark accent lines, very similar to a cell shader in videogames, almost comic like. I might paint my BOP in a similar way, thanks for inspiration!

Thanks!

I would use 1000 grit sandpaper to give the surfaces inside the translucent piece some tooth to hold paint. It would help if all of the paint colors and their numbers were shown so we could see them. I tried to make a list of them but all I got was the first one.

Yeah, I've since learned to lightly sand clear pieces that I'm painting and want light diffusion.

Build all three simultaneously.

Excellent job I just came across your video

Thanks, I put this one off for a while but once I got started I enjoyed the build.

Just came upon this clip great work! I have 3 of these plus lots of star ships, never did science fiction or space kits before but this may inspire me to get building 🏆

Thank you! I'm actually working on another one right now. Trying to decide what configuration to put it in.

Another really great result. I've probably said this before, but I like the way you edit your videos, to eliminate the tedious details of the actual assembly. You state what you're going to do, show us the result, and fill in the details of what took place. You deserve more views.

I really needed to see the radiator assemblies. Nope. I can never figure out why builder's videos leave out some of the most troublesome things.

Thanks bud, look forward to seeing your build!

This is a really awesome build. I especially like the color choices, I think that the lighter green works really well. I wish that I had done that on my BoP, but hey that's just a good enough excuse to buy another one :)

Thank you! The great thing about BOP is there were a lot of them so I think there lots of ways of painting them.

If you think about it those colors make it screen accurate. And the only time you ever see a grounded Bird of Prey is at the end of Star Trek III and IV.
