rockpopandchips Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 (edited) Just for fun this one is a sort big hero 6/Robots sort of way. This sort of fell together when I was rummaging through the parts box but my first scratch mech is being built.

How about if you make a coil from metal wire and cut it open, that could be made into a hand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LotusArenco Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Brilliant! I’d be tempted to stick rivets all over and weather the heck out of it. Mart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mart I would have done that if it wasn't meant to be a very quiet build. I will be weathering him though. He has had a black base and then I had a go at spray the AK wax stuff thinned with turpentine as that's all had to hand and it turned out OK. I might try a bit of dark aluminium over the top to lighten him before I start on the weathering.

rockpopandchips Posted July 15, 2018 Author Share Posted July 15, 2018 Well that didn't work, trying to do a checkerboard on the sheild. I will sand back and try again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I like that ... Hes got a suitably angry look to his eyes. His shield and sword do look good as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brundledonk Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 This is great ! He looks brilliant and you got the checks on the shield sorted out to great effect. He's cute but definitely looks like he means business and did I spot earth wire for the elbows ? Genius bit of scratching/kitbashing mate Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genius bit of scratching/kitbashing mate Pete Thanks and yes earth wire for the elbows I had to remove a few strands to make it fit but it turned out better than I thought it would. Paint really don't like sticking to it thought so have had used a black marker pen for some touch ups. Cheers all for you comments on this one, was a fun little project, I have a 1/35 personnel carrier walking mech or it might be a hover bike that are in the planning stages, will i ever get back to making kits?
