So this one is not my best work.  It was very frustrating to paint.  I recommend painting before assembly but that will only help marginally.  Still debating on whether to put it on a base or not.. I likely wont...

Not sure why you are disappointed??    That turned out very nice and you have brought it alive.

[Clearman 9515]

Agreed.  Any places you had difficultly are not showing.  I really like the way the blues and greens work together.

I think this looks great. I love the stripe and colors and I think the details on the head are excellent.

 

When dry fitting this piece I had difficultly imagining how to approach painting the bits because of how they fit and how tiny some of them are.

if you were to do it again what would you do?

Did you have to pin yours? Mine barely wants to stay assembled (from a test run to make sure I had all the pieces).

If I had to do it again I would definitely paint it in pieces.  The arms are the biggest problem and in order to get to the center of the base with a brush you need them out of the way.  Also to paint the fin on the back.  Those arms are troublesome.  I ended up taking mine apart to paint it properly.  Also the tail piece at the very end you should leave off too and it sort of gets in the way of painting one area.  I mean this model is a painter nightmare lol but all the cool ones are.

Yep I pinned every piece except the tail.

This piece will be my first attempt at pinning. It certainly is noodly without pins.

I agree, I think you did a great job with it.

Looks good to me.  Especially with that stripe.

I really like the stripes on the back--reminds me of garter snakes (I love those little guys).

[Tjrez 1105]

nice job. I like the color scheme

Beautiful!  I love your color and patterning choices. I'd love to have that in my collection.
