[WIP] 1/12 Bubblegum Crisis Motoslave with Priss
« on: Wed Sep, 15, 2010, 06:58:PM »
Ok I was itching to start this so my other stuff can wait  ;D
I'm going to build a base/dio that's based on the box cover - my first go at this sort of thing so it should be interesting -









You can see what I'm up to, if anyone has any suggestions then please do say as I'd appreciate the help  :)

Cheers Jeep, it's one of mine too, shame there's not more kits from the series, a Griffon from Revenge Road would be great  :D

Thanks very much chaps  :)

I haven't got a lot done today, been getting some decals on that F-2A and humping a freezer over to my brother's house. However I have got Priss off her sprues and taken a good look at her - my, my has she got nice legs  :P



I think my AMS is kicking in as I really don't like those knee caps - take a look at the box art - that's how you'll see her knees normally. Think it's time for some cutting and blending - not sure whether to use putty or styrene for this though. What do you chaps think the best way to tackle this is?

Cheers Jingles, I had a think about it and I'll think I'll leave 'em as they are, one reason being is I don't want a fixed pose, another being I just can't be bothered  ;D
Just had enough time today to get her together (I can break her into pieces for painting though)


Sorry my shots are a little blurred - must be my eyes  ;D
