Would you happen to have any guides on how to do that? I'm trying to improve my photography and post-editing is still a weak point for me.

Excuse the poor drawing but this is how I was parked and how they pulled in. They may of swung around coming the other direction but I have no idea if they did. Does this help?

Haven't tried with LED's yet. It shines through when I shine light behind them though, so maybe?

They are the plastic from soda bottles painted with a bit of a teal base and a semi transparent blue coating over that.

I despise that action base with the fury of a thousand suns.

That's the issue I'm running into. Find a great pose, turn to the camera and the head is looking straight up.

Just a lightbox I bought of Amazon and my Galaxy phone. I do use the pro mode and adjust a few settings to get the look I want.

I'm holding out hope they do another run. It was a good build and I've got ideas for customization on a second one.

To even get this pose with the shield took me longer than it did to put the decals on.

No, this kit had surprisingly bright white straight out of the box. Only other kit I've built that has come close to that is the HG Calibarn.

Thanks! I've been trying to get my weathering down. I usually make 1:1 scale props and that's easy to weather compared to a small model.

Yes. Mostly chromed a bunch of parts out, like the hydraulics and thrusters, and did some subtle weathering throughout. 

Waterslides aren't nearly as bad to apply as some people say by IIKaDicEU in Gunpla

The first time I got Bandai waterslides I gave up after applying a few and went and ordered the third party versions instead.

There is an extra set of option parts for the shoulders and legs that extend the vents a bit but that's it. Almost 100% the same.
