A model of a combat robot in 1:48 scale from Metallic Details. The D-209 designation is the one the manufacturer itself uses for this subject. The model is supplied as a kit to be assembled and painted.
The subject is fictional, so the model does not rest on historical facts but on impression - and the way it is built and painted follows from that. Science fiction robots of this kind live on the contrast of materials: a combination of matte finish, worn metal, hydraulics and fresh scrapes does more for the result than the most precise assembly. Treating it as a machine after a deployment is rewarding too, that is with traces of service, dust and damage.
First build the model dry and think out which parts will stay separate for painting - on a robot those are typically the limbs, the hydraulic rams and the inner parts you will not reach once they are glued. Apply the base color over a good primer in thin coats. Metal surfaces are brought out with a dark base and drybrushing in a metal shade along the edges, while the hydraulic rams are left in bright metal and protected from overspray. Keep the rubs and scrapes restrained and put them only where they would really arise - on edges, on joints and in places of contact. The model shows well on a simple base with a rough surface.
The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
