Suliban Ships have a wood-colored tone. For this model I used Vallejo Model Air Mahagony 71036 (30%) Light Brown 71027 (60%).

On this color I gave a dark washing with: 
+ Mahagony 71036 (10%)
+ Leather Brown 70871 (40%)
+ Glaze Medium (50%)


After drying, I applied a bright washing with Vallejo Panzer Aces 301 Light Rust.


In the last step I have given the model shades for more depth with Vallejo Cam. Black Brown 70822.
For the highlights I have dabbed gently Panzer Aces 303 Yellowish Rust. The window color is a mix of White and Pale Blue.

Suliban Stealth Cruiser - Part 2

Here is the step 2 with the added four outer side envelope segments and the back engine. On the middle of the top and bottom side I cut an octagon (air lock).

I bought the Suliban Stealth Cruiser resin kit in 1/1400. The master is a 3D-print. A very detailed and small ship! It is 8,5cm long.

The only changes I will made ​​is to replace the back engine becaus it is to thick and I will replace the four outer side envelope segments. For that I have already sanded the originals and leave pins for mounting the new ones.
