Raidar
X is a non-transforming anti-aircraft mecha used by the Robotech
Defense Force on the SDF-1.
Raidar X is also known as the Defender ADR-04-Mk X.
The basecoat is an old Testors Flat Desert Sand spray, no longer
in production. The 'eye' is Gloss Green, the knees and ammo
packs are Battle Mat Gray, and the floodlights are Chrome
Silver.
This photo was taken with a flash. The other two are in natural
sunlight.
Weathering is dry brushed Flat Black, with some silver
highlights. Gloss Red was used for the weapon- arm targeting scope.
The
painting and weathering were done without an airbrush. One
method was to apply Flat Black with a swipe of the brush and
then to quickly wipe it off again with a rag. The effect is an
area that looks like a stain from oil or soot buildup from
weapon discharges.
