Here is my take on the Moebius War Machine from Iron Man 2. It's painted with Alcad II polished aluminium and a custom mix of black and Gunmetal from Tamiya that I mixed up. There are a fair few panel joins that caused a few problems down the legs and arms but plenty of filling and sanding sorted most of that. I do wish that Moebius would have included some decals for this and for £45 I'd expect some... no this wasn't picked up in the MZ £10 deal... it was a birthday present along with the black widow as seen further down the page and in another thread. I bodged markings as best as I can and still may come vback to this to add more later.
Anyway on with the pictures.

A great build, with very realistic looking paint job!

Good use of varying shades to break up the otherwise uniform finish.
