    Hi, Everyone!
    I’m new to the hobby. My latest finished model is Ma.K SUFA Fireball and it’s fourth model I ever made. Currently I’m woking on Falke ship. But I’m not only on Maschinen Krieger – love gunpla and sci-fi too 😉

    • That digital effect on the ship is excellent, how did you achieve it?

    • Thanks Ryan 🙂
      I tried different methods before actual work. Finally I created masks on my computer (in Inkspace, free vector app) and then cut them on plotter. I used Oramask to do it, because everyone recommends it. You need a lot of patience and attention but I think it was worth it.

      • How long did it take to get the masking done and painted?

        • I tried to do this as fast as possible to not to keep the mask on a model too long. But it took me three whole evenings. Around 4 hours for every masking – there were 3 colours to mask – white (underneath the ship) and two greys. First was the toughest, because I needed to create straight body line on a side. Of course there were some dif…[Read more]

    • Have i seen that fireball before? 😉

      Anyway i really like the griminess of the suit and the chipping is nicely done!.
      Nifty effect on the falke too.

    • Very cool!

    • Very nicely done camo~!

    • Thanks guys 🙂

    Just a few of my past ma.k builds.

    Hope you like.

    • Incredible Ma.K.
      Great bases – I though the birds were a very nice touch!

    • Nice details, good job.

    • Another fine MAK fan! Seems to me MAK lovers know what they’r edoing when it comes to their stuff. And it looks oh-so-steampunky! I’ll be looking forward to your updates Java. 🙂

    • Those are awesome! Love the crocodile one!

    • Awesome. If only I could paint a M.a.K like they do on the box. I wish they sold pre painted M.a.K kits like Gundam that were not expensive.

    • Thank you chaps.

      travesty: You can paint Ma.k like they do on the box, It’s not as difficult as you think,get some practice in on some cheap kit’s, learn new techniques from other modelers,ask questions, watch videos like boss builds and gunpla tv and you will be making ma.k like it is on the box in no time 😉

    • There are some great bulids. I love dioramas with story underneath. Hund fighting safs, swordsman fighting Hund and crok. Nice, mate!
