cobraman Posted April 20, 2016 Posted April 20, 2016 (edited) I always like to throw in something different than a car or truck once in awhile. That being said after a few cars in a row I decided to build this. Moebius Space Pod from the Lost in Space campy TV show. It looks pretty detailed but the instructions leave a lot to be desired. Good kit to practice detail painting on. Will probably create a diorama setting for it when finished. Has anyone built this kit ? Edited April 25, 2016 by cobraman update
slusher Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 Have not built it but watched and loved the show Ray. Very cool looking kit..
cobraman Posted April 21, 2016 Author Posted April 21, 2016 Thanks Wayne. The little detail painting is giving me fits ! Could be neater but it will have to do.
slusher Posted April 22, 2016 Posted April 22, 2016 Looking great Ray, would be cool if it came with Robot and Dr Smith...
cobraman Posted April 22, 2016 Author Posted April 22, 2016 Thanks guys. Carl, funny you mention the robot. I just ordered a same scale kit of the robot to add when I make this a diorama.
bobthehobbyguy Posted April 25, 2016 Posted April 25, 2016 Looking good. One thing I've found to help with detail painting is to use a lacquer for the base and then water based acrylics over that. If you don't like how it looks you can use a qtip with water and redo it.
cobraman Posted April 25, 2016 Author Posted April 25, 2016 Well this one is done. The robot kit should be arriving soon. At that time I will build that and created a diorama using both kits.
wayne swayze Posted April 25, 2016 Posted April 25, 2016 That's pretty cool Ray! Lost in space looking for Cobras!!
cobraman Posted April 25, 2016 Author Posted April 25, 2016 Thanks Wayne. I need to build something different once in awhile.
Badluck 13 Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 I loved the show and love this build,very nice detail work indeed....what did you use for the orange color?? I have the Chariot that comes with B9 robot which I need to do and the color looks dead on...
cobraman Posted April 26, 2016 Author Posted April 26, 2016 Thanks guys. I just used Testors Hemi Orange paint. I got the 1/24 scale robot yesterday so I will build that and then make a dio.
cobraman Posted April 26, 2016 Author Posted April 26, 2016 Correction Mike. The orange is Model Master Hugger Orange. Sorry. : (
