Wow.
That was fast.
And the paint slinging is top notch.

Love the lighting effect you painted on it all too.

Excellent, I agree with the others that the color choices and application are awesome and very effective in bringing Gorgo to "life". An outstanding model build!

Beautiful, bold painting. Gee I wish this had been around in the early days of the Aurora kits.
Well worth the half century wait. :wink:
