Ive blogged this model before, but ive been experimenting with a new photography technique and this is a favourite subject of mine, the IMAI Thunderbirds Excavator. I didn't follow the standard kit instructions and added some interior detailing with grinding wheels and a few accessories, to make it look a little more toy like. I also ditched the supplied figure and added a golden astronaut scale figure from a Tomy Zoids toy, just to bring it into the Spacex realm. Its a cracking little model, about five inches long in the body and molded in colour plastic.
Great work Wotan. Is this 5 inch version the bigger or the medium sized model kit?
ReplyDeleteim not sure which version this is, I have seen an unmade kit of what appears to be a smaller one in a set with a mole of a TB4 or something. I think this may be the medium kit though and there is a larger one available.
