I can't get the white to airbrush properly so I am switching to spray paint.

Cool subject, I've just been watching season one of this show and I have to say it hasn't aged too badly at all 🙂
Although some episodes are a bit silly and it doesn't seem to matter how many people die on Alpha One there is always over 300 people there haha 😄
still though, all good fun.
I shall enjoy following this 🙂

Yes the show is pretty funny. My wife and I watched a couple episodes and laughed the whole time. I loved it when I was a kid, and I had built this model and the one of the hawk when I was a kid. I also built some alien with a car that I think was from the show.

The landing gear continues to challenge me but I have one leg done maybe. Kind of wish now I would have made them spring loaded, wouldn't have been much harder. The foot pad is a ground down plastic part from the kit, the rest is brass parts and photoetch.

Not sure how I will mask this for painting. The bottom of the pod should remain black, the rest silver. Liquid masking compound maybe?

Unfortunately the liquid mask pulled the Vallejo black primer off the brass ... I'm repainting everything with a brush.

Now the tamiya tape pulled the paint off the photo etch. There sure is a learning curve here... Any advice on how to keep this from happening? I used tamiya grey primer as my base coat.
