TimMather Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Heres my latest build, made a few color changes, but still mostly standard colors. ive been getting into painting my inner frames gray and putting more effort into them by putting warnings on the inner frame and also using PE and painting it light gray to give extra detail on the joints. drilled out forearms and added black metal exhausts, the knees were drilled and screws added, the side skirts were glued, filled and pla plate added to parts where i could not fill seams, the blue part on side skirt is a seporate part, so removed some plastic and added the gold mesh to the vent. the shoulders were drilled and JAO parts screws were added. HIQ decals were used for all warnings, and logos are all custom made by wessex transfers, used carbon decal on backpack which i guess isnt really "in-scale" but i like it. bandai dont make the proper claw hands for the 1/100 kit, but found that you can use use the 1/144 lupus rex oversized hands which are perfect fit for the 1/100 lupus. color changes... shoulders went from red outer and white inner, to white outer and red inner. and changed center of V-fin to white and also made foot claws white to match white claws on hands. primer alclad white. gaia brilliant white mr color yellow gaia ultra blue mr color red inner frame grays mr color 331, 73 metallics... gaia blade silver gaia starbright gold alclad chrome gaia clear red(shoulder inner part) 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter Rose Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 That looks great! I really like the Barbatos, though I've never been to sure about the foot design tbh. Very tidy job! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Vale Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I can't get into the Barbatos, but it's a nice build I really like the stencils on the inner frame. W 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimMather Posted March 21, 2017 Author Share Posted March 21, 2017 i see what you guys are saying, i was not a fan of the suit for long time, but its grown on me. some angles the design looks goofy, but at some angles it looks tuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockpopandchips Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Hi Tim, did you use once of those chemical rap transfer things for the centre of the back pack or is that a paint effect? Its a very nice detail. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I can almost see it. The poses with the ludicrous (awesome) sword/bat are pretty mean-looking 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
