Bandai 1/144 Star Wars AT-AT
Posted: January 4th, 2018, 12:39 pm
Following seeing the new Star Wars film, I was inspired to build one of the excellent Bandai Star Wars kits. It was a choice between an AT-AT and the Millennium Falcon, but the AT-AT won
As ever with Bandai, the kit is excellently detailed and engineered and the fit is sublime! It is billed as a snap-together kit, and could indeed be built wholly without glue if desired although some of the joints may come apart easily without a little (carefully!) applied glue.
I painted it overall in Humbrol Steel Grey acrylic, with Gunmetal accents and detail, and then used a variety of Flory washes to add some streaking and general grime. It still needs a matt varnish but it's too cold and damp to go out to the garage and spray it at present
