In order to connect the shoulders of the FG Zaku II to the upper arm section of the Zaku Tank I decided to use a Balljoint polycap. The balljoint was made by placing Milliput…
WIP 01: Finally got the kit snapped together. All parts have been sanded and the nubs have been taken care of. I thought that there were a few bad nubs on this MG so more attention and sanding required. Now the really fun stuff can begin.
Thanks man, there seems to be a good few GM sniper II’s so it’ll definitely be interesting to see all the end results. That GM was my first attempt years ago at shading and using block camo.
Fair play to ya, its good to see another irishman doing gunpla, i thought i would never see the day. Have the GM sniper II its pretty unique for the build and simple. I love the swapable hands gesture too.
I cut both torsos in half and sandwiched them together with Milliput. The upper chest section was cut away due to the difference in angle between the two kits which left a gaping hole in the middle that was hard to fill.
I’ve started to work on the GM strike articulations mods: separated the torso in 2, using micro saws, added a ball joint in the middle from the ballden arms, and started moded…
Hi. I will be putting together the MS-06V Zaku Tank which is quite old, so as I did with the GM Sniper Custom and Dwadge Reformation, I’ll be cutting it up and gluing it to a…
Finally my competition kit has arrived from HLJ to Ireland. It’s the new GM Sniper II, I’ve got some interesting choices in mind for this awesome kit. Stay tuned!
Here is my part 2 work in progress sd OO Gundam. Just hand painted the clear pieces then primed the rest of the kit. Next is hand painting parts to appropriate colors and little details.
I have done a lot of straight builds but this will be the first time i will hand paint and panel wash everything. I choose the sd OO gundam cuz im not confident in my hand…
First problem encountered with this resin add-on, thanks to resin shrinkage, the forearm covers no longer snapped into place properly, and the thruster flaps didn’t close a…
Evening spent test fitting the resin parts on my Sazabi.
The fit isnt the best, will take some sanding to sit well.
But I’ll be damned if that isnt impressive looking.
bought the resin parts years ago direct from the caster.
test fitter one of the arms too and it looks like theres been some shrinkage, so will DEFINITELY need a fair bit of work to make them fit -_-
i’ve done a mockup of the dio, and from what i see i need a wider angle, so the kits won’t be so crowed in one another, plus i need to show the better details on the gate … way more things to do … but i’m happy so far 🙂
This is looking great. With regards to space, less is better imho. I am in the camp that prefers compact dioramas – but in the end it is a personal taste thing. The more space, the less focused the action and story, and the more you need to fill. Just keep that in mind when making decisions. From what I am seeing I agree with your decisions…[Read more]
My base kit arrived today, 2 days to get the the UK and then 5 days for customs to release it to me, gotta love our speedy customs service XD
This will have a resin conversion fitted along with a couple of leds, added surface detail and scribed panel lines, and a new weapon unit fitted.
Let the test fitting commence.
Man that’s a lot zeon kits there. Yeah I need to finish my own sazabi. It’s an amazing kit already and findin ways to improve it will be a challenge in itself. I can’t wait what you’re going to do with this one.
Only 5 days in customs? I’m from Poland. One of my last packages (from November 2016) spent 3 weeks in customs. Sent on 2nd of November reached Customs on 8th and was delivered on 29th. I needed to call them many times and they were always saying that they will send it right away.
But fortunately that was one time, usually takes up to 3 days.
Good…[Read more]
