I highlighted the edges, which normally don’t have their own paint shade. The masking was tough, but it really brought forth the joy of painting. I introduce the New Generation Wagtail!

Highlighting the edges is interesting on its own, but what really caught our eye was the amazing level of detail, attention to appearance, and quality painting.
The fabulous balance of the body’s brown and warm grey with off white shows off the builder’s wonderful coloring sense.

The head-mounted antenna, built new, is attached almost straight-on. A little bit of ink wash helps it stand out. The neck projects a forceful image with its custom parts. |
 |
Grey edge highlights on the arms and legs convey a bold look, and really show off the uniqueness of this entry. The light grey joints are also a nice accent. |
 |
To allow for a crouching pose, the legs were moved to attach to the front of the hips. Scrap parts were filled in to remove the appearance of a gap, |
 |
The joint “screws” were replaced with aftermarket parts to increase detail. |
