    Just another update before I do more subtle weathering, flatcoating, and adding the waterslides. I’m not willing to drill holes here and there, because Crossbone X2 is really designed as a close-combat unit. In order to achieve what I have so far, I moved around all the joints without topcoating. This achieves natural paint chipping. After, I brushed on artificial edge-wear with a fine-tip brush.

    From the back, you can see that I haven’t finished the back yet. I also am planning to replace the hands, for the simple fact that these manipulators are terrible. Additionally, Bandai should have engineered the shot lance better so the unit can hold it without sticky tack. 🙁

    P.S. Anyone who’s played SDGONA may have encountered me with this suit (in the same color scheme)!

    • The detailing of the yellow parts look really nice bro, if only I had the skill haha

      • I’m not sure if I really have “skill” per se, because it’s really a patience game. I was so close to giving up on them several times as the parts were tiny. >.<

    • nice color scheme, though it doens’t show its advantage in these pictures well 🙁

      • I know what you mean. I decided to take pictures with my cell phone for now (ironically, the 8 megapixel camera isn’t doing me any favors), but I will eventually post higher-res photos when I find my actual camera…probably going to be the next update. It’s in a box somewhere. x_x
