Gekko_1 Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 (edited) For those of you not aware there was an MA.K in Gundam contest recently run on YouTube, see here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1dgHAaLWiE&list=PLoBIme3OUbYq8rST2QIGcTH9Bwp1YqkRB&index=15&t=508s The base kit I decided to start with was the Bandai 1/144th scale Gundam Gusion kit and converted it into a mobile suit from the Maschinen Krieger universe using a lot of scratch building and spare parts. I called the mobile suit - Hasslicher Fetter Junge Ausf K (Ugly fat boy) The winners of the comp will be announced this Wednesday or Thursday on the same YouTube channel. Cheers Richard.

Pete in Lincs Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 A. I didn't know about the competition. B. Love this. Great cast metal effect. How did you do that? C. Fingers crossed for you to be a winner. Pete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gekko_1 Posted July 30, 2019 Author Share Posted July 30, 2019 Hi Pete, thanks. The caste metal effect was Mr Surfacer 500 roughly painted on with an old brush straight on to the bare plastic. Quick, easy and worked out perfectly. Cheers Richard. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockpopandchips Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Very well done. Some cool kits the one by Geoff using the arms from a ball kit painted red was definitely my favourite. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will however be doing a YouTube video about it all in a couple of months time which will cover everything. Check Studio Gekko on YouTube early next year. Cheers Richard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
