Spartanian 170 View: Slideshow Mosaic List 1 February 14, 2021
Some reference from the anime series. The design of the Spartanian is not specific all the time.
2 February 14, 2021
This model will be based on Olivier Poplin's Spartanian 170. I'm going to print the decals myself.

1:144 Spartanian is massive! It is made of 3 parts: the cockpit, the main body and the laser cannons.
4 February 14, 2021
The model is printed with "white natural versatile plastic" meaning nylon and selective laser sintering (SLS). This results the surface is pretty coarse and needs to be sanded.
5 February 14, 2021
A lot of Surfacer 500, 1000 and filler spray.
6 February 14, 2021
The cocpit is now better after three sets of filler and sanding. The main fuselage will be more difficult.
7 February 14, 2021
After two sets of sanding and filler i painted the main body with blue to ensure that everything is sanded.
8 February 14, 2021
Almost everything is now sanded and should be smooth enough.
9 February 14, 2021
Stand is from a flea market.
10 February 14, 2021
Two long antenna from 2mm plastic rod. Also some thin rods added to the fins.
11 February 14, 2021
First black primer. Might still need some sanding and additional paint layers.
12 February 16, 2021
Some shading.
13 February 16, 2021
Painted with A.MIG-203 Compass Ghost Grey. I already had that and didn't bother to buy a new color for this.
14 February 21, 2021
Magenda-color comes slowly when I'm masking and painting areas one at a time. The color is 3rd gen AK11067.

Self-printed decals waiting for their turn.

Lunadiver and Spartanian are so similar XD both are Japanese, have similar stands and same grey color.

There are panel lines, some minor wash and satin varnish finished so the Spartanian is now complete!
20 21 22 March 12, 2021
Engine part was impossible to sand smooth. The details are quite minor also.
