I think I can safely say this is as done as it's going to get. A fun little conversion as well as a bit of a learning experience. Enjoy. ;) P1012867.JPGP1012868.JPGP1012869.JPGP1012870.JPGP1012871.JPGP1012872.JPGP1012873.JPG
 
Excellent the whole thing from start to finish have throughly enjoyed it thank you for sharing. Dave
 
You've done it again Rick, a superb result. How you get so much detail into such a small model is truly amazing.

Hi Jim, I can't help it, I just keep finding pics. with details I see that aren't provided with the model and I have to try and add them to make it a little more believable. Kind of fun actually. Thanks for stopping by. :smiling3:
 
Hi Rick, not my scale for armour but after seeing this I must read up on your post to see how you did it. Really cool and doesn't look 1/72 at all. Well deserved comments from the guys.

Cheers,

...and it looks like it's 1/48, at least! Well done Paul. :thumb2:

Hi Richard, as Paul said it's actually 1-87 scale....so even smaller yet. Definitely modeling outside of the "norm" ;)

Thanks to everyone that followed along on this build and supported my endeavors to render something a little different in 1-87 scale. As I mentioned to Andy T earlier, I think I'll try a Resin Printed Fiat 666 for my next project. I just got two of these from a "Printer" in Poland and the detail looks fantastic so it might be a "shake and bake" OOB model.....stay tuned. :thumb2:
 
I have finally figured out how he does this detailed braille scale stuff. He cheats!!! He builds a 1/35 kit and then uses one of these ..

You can clearly see it works for biscuits and all Rick has done is get the elf to stuff in his 1/35 model :tongue-out3::smiling5::smiling:
