Deciding to model an alternative timeline for the anime series
Last Exile, Rob dressed up Hasegawa’s 1/72 scale Vanship and Vespa with photo-etched metal details from his spares box. He painted he vehicles with custom reds mixed from Tamiya acrylics with salt used to create chipping and oil washes. The brass radiators and steel parts were painted with AK Interactive Xtreme Metal paints. He assembled the themed base with found items held together with epoxy.
