Thud4444 Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 I like that. I really think the skinny arms make it look more Zeon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockpopandchips Posted May 1, 2017 Author Share Posted May 1, 2017 Other arm, its a claw! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockpopandchips Posted May 2, 2017 Author Share Posted May 2, 2017 Getting close to finished all parts for this now, making sure they fit together before I have to come up with a display base, so then I can make a start of gluing it all together. Then I have to decide on a colour and a name? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimme Shelter Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 this is such a great design and home grown build - top marks for ingenuity - great things are made from the everyday left overs around us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will Vale Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 So great, it fits right in with other MA while still being its own thing and not a copy. The million dollar question is now what colour are you going to paint it? There are no wrong answers Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockpopandchips Posted May 5, 2017 Author Share Posted May 5, 2017 (edited) What colour to paint this has been doing my nut in, but have just found a red Kshatriya the main hull I have used and I dont think I like it in red, so Im back to green at the moment but still wandering if I should do it some other colour? RED COLOUR HERE Edited May 5, 2017 by rockpopandchips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockpopandchips Posted May 7, 2017 Author Share Posted May 7, 2017 So i have orded a little 1/250 zaku to give this some scale and have mixed two possible colours. The green i will use on the Zaku and the dark grey/blue is a mix i made for the guns but now I'm thinking of using it as the main colour, add some blue and white and i might have an alternative MA colour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockpopandchips Posted May 8, 2017 Author Share Posted May 8, 2017 (edited) My little 1/250 scale Zaku turned up today, its such a cool littel kit i will do a quick review of him as i dont think i have seen anyone build on on here.

Hunter Rose Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 That little zaku is so cool! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockpopandchips Posted May 11, 2017 Author Share Posted May 11, 2017 Scale size of the Zaku next the HMC. I had another go at using the Alclad base for pre shading, as you can see it splatters all over the place even at 10 psi, I hate the dame stuff! I will probably spray over the rest of in now with the black and then add some light blue/white for the post shading later. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well i haved ended up going red after lots of different options. I will be mixing it up with some browns as well thought. Still a long way to go with the ted yet.

rockpopandchips Posted July 2, 2017 Author Share Posted July 2, 2017 So all my photos are blacked by photobucket as they are holding them to ransom, they want me to stump up $400 every year so they can get f.......d. I have moved over to flickr for now. Making a start on paint this and after much indecision im going with a much simpler paint job, as an MA should be all red with a grey frame. Arm's and outer shell done and i need to do more of the inner parts now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockpopandchips Posted July 7, 2017 Author Share Posted July 7, 2017 Added some more red and had anothet go at the funky engine burn, its not great but it will do. Im still undecided if i want to put any decals on it, may be a big gold neo zeon symbol on the back might be ok? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockpopandchips Posted July 8, 2017 Author Share Posted July 8, 2017 (edited) I had a few evil dry transfer things, i hate using then but for this build they will do so just put these two on for now. The yellow one is just a bit of centre which is a bit annoying but i can not move it now so it will have to stay like that. The lighter red under the shell will get a coat or 3 of smoke to darken it as well. Edited July 8, 2017 by rockpopandchips 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockpopandchips Posted July 8, 2017 Author Share Posted July 8, 2017 (edited) Once this is finished i will only have 2 thing on the WIP shelf. Time to start an other scratch/kit bash project i think. Im thinking a 1/35 scale Zaku bust or a Mars Hopper ball like Randy Coopers, both well out of my skill set but thats what YT is for.
