1/200 scale Word of Blake Archer

This is a 1/ 200 scale Macross Gladiator figure model kit, known as the Archer in Battletech. It is painted in the bone gray and white colors of the Word of Blake. The model kit has been modified to have open missile doors. I cut the missile doors of with a hot knife, then put a strip of sprue with twenty missiles drilled into each and put them in the cavities. It was painted gray, washed whit black ink, then drybrushed with lighter and lighter shades until white. Some gold and purple trim was then painted and actuator detail and WoB markings were added. Model was then clearcoated and the cockpit (which, I have opted to put on top) was high glossed. The figure is articulated at the waist, shoulders, hips twice, and ankles.
