MG F91 2.0 – MAQUINA 2020 entry
Don Suratos’s MAQUINA mecha modelling competition has an out of the box category, which requires the entry not have any customisation aside from painting. For my 2020 entry I entered this custom painted MG F91 2.0. Subtly preshaded matt grey armour, contrasted against a glossy candy orange, among other metallic paints. I also tried my hand at glowing eye and camera lens effects, recreated with brushed on paint. Hope you enjoy, and I recommend you check out the other MAQUINA 2020 entries at the Don’s blog.
