Very realistic camouflage; nice job!

Wow! You have some really nasty gaps on the figure. I've made this kit and mine were noticable but were easily cleaned up with a bit of sanding and a small bit of filler. I didn't get the same gaps that you have on the legs. Nice work on the 'diorama' part, I used basing sand on the base of it to give a bit of 'realism' it does look better for it.

Oh, I almost forgot that I started this album here xD Yeah the gaps were pretty bad, luckily most of it was on the less visible leg. I kinda plan on changing the whole pose so it doesn't really matter as much. The Grogu kit was similar btw, needed lots of putty and sanding, too.

Following a new masterpiece under construction!

Markus Helmers
Haha, I wish! I have no hopes for this one yet lol

I can see how "Handy" you are on your mods! If you opt for the grenades, Mando generally has a lot of them flying out - but I can see you doing something awe inspiring like dotting the them with LEDs! On the other hand, a flamethrower will also look bad ass! Either way you go, we win!

I agree with the Capt, as it is now it looks like one Whistling Bird coming out and they normally come in a flock. If the existing cotton wool is 'converted' into a flame with paint/lighting then it'll be just as amazing - either way 👍

Markus Helmers
For now it's just a placeholder. The whole thing is already getting a bit crowded so not sure how well multiple birds would fit, hence the flamethrower idea. But that would be more difficult to light I guess. Will need to experiment a bit.

Markus Helmers
So, as of now I'm leaning more towards the flamethrower solution. The whistling birds only leave a very thin smoke trail with glowing tips. However the wires holding this would also have to be very thin yet be able to hold the fiber optics in place. Thin fibers don't carry a lot of light. This is especially true if you have to roughen the ends to allow for a bit of side glow while being wrapped in cotton. There's practically no light left unless the room is completely dark. Not exactly what I had in mind. Will have to study some YT vids of some of the modeling wizards that do explosions. Any recommendations welcome!
