I've been working on Hasegawa's Vanship kit from the Anime Last Exile - Fam, the Silver Wing.
Inside the box are two models, one for the somewhat larger Vanship, which I painted in the version used by Tatiana and Alister, as well as the little Vespa of Fam and Giselle. Which is like mini version of a Vanship, how the aircraft in the world are called. Given the size of this thing, Vespa is a very fitting name., like a flying scooter. The Vanship has a size similar to a WW2 single engine fighter.

I am almost done wit the project, the red Vanship is missing a few final coats of gloss varnish, it's similar for the Vesper.
The decals were really troublesome, while some perfectly shaped to the body of the Vanship, they were also very very brittle. In contrast, the two decals at the silver Vespa's body just don't want to stick to the surface and need a bit more work.

As for the base I cut and glued a sheet of ABS to foam and painted it, so it gives a bit of an impression like it could be part of landing platform, of one of the large airships, shown in the anime.
I followed with generous amounts of acrylic wash and stippled it dry. Might try to fine tune the base as well a bit further.
