Righty, if I've timed this right, this post will go live on day 3 of TFNation. About the time where I shall be waking up to the buffet breakfast.
As I have preparations to make and fun to have, I've moved a few things around for today's post. Yes, yes. It's a big, green, somewhat anonymous, grunt. Obviously I have a type.
First, a brief review. While obviously specialising in the field of "big dude, bigger gun", the Revernova is very competent as a kit. Its not quite as remarkable as the Spinatio, but its doing all it chooses to do well. However, at time of writing, there seem to be no dedicated add-on sets for this, just a partsforming combination of a sort with the Guardonova, which I have yet to get. I would say it does not need any extras, but the absence of a melee weapon or spare hands is still an omission. This kit does however bring moving skirt armour to the range, as well as modified hip joints. Otherwise, if you've built a 30MM kit before, you know what you're getting into here. If you haven't? Well, this a great place to start. It's much Dom inspired, and I love the little domed head & collar.
Intended as a palette cleanser between more involved projects, I
limited myself to minor weathering effects on this one, and so I
don’t have a vast amount to say. I lightly drybrushed with a gun
metal to make it look worn, before applying a brown wash to make it
look dirty. As an additional flair though, I mixed up some homebrew
texture paint and applied it to the feet. It looks good, but it
doesn’t stick too the plastic that well.I decided to let my RPG group name him, and thus he is now "Jeff3y McGunn". I regret nothing.
All in all, a good time. Go get one.
