Sometimes a scale model is more interesting before it is painted and detailed, rather than after. This is a model of a generator, which will be part of a larger model of an ESS (expandable shelter system). Looking at the unfinished model allows the observer to notice the variety of materials used in its construction.
ABS plastic
Acrylic
Ren board
Evergreen strips
Brass tubing
Update:
OK. Maybe the scale model looks better when it IS finished….
