Hey model addicts, I thought i would make my build public on both here and ma.k. forum hope you dont mind. Well first things first, bathing all parts in simple green and give them a good scrubbing. Then i rinsed off after scrub down and make a clean bowl of simple green dilluted with warm water and let it soak over night. I sure do hope i dont have any release agent problems. This is just the beggining of a journey ive been waiting for, for a long time. more to come, thx.

Hi mario,you must have been cleaning it up for hours to get it looking that clean.
But it is a kit to be proud of.

 

[Maknifiso]

Nice progress bro, great stuff.

 

[Myke]

Lookin' smooth. Bring on the primer.

 

[DXM]

Can't wait to see this little beastie.

 

[mariosmodelkits]

Thx all.

Made some pritty good progress sofar, did alot of sub assem. and test fitting added some details were i felt it was needed to make this kit more sick. I still have alot of work to do but the kit is comming along just fine. This thing is very sturdy and im glad i went overboard and pinned every part because it heavy to, so more to come and all comm. and crits. are welcome.

That is so brilliant. I will confess, I am not a fan of walking robot war machines. I never developed a taste for them. However I do appreciate skilled craftsmanship like yours dude. It's amazing what you have done with that model. I love the diorama base too.

Is this going Sci Fi or Diorama? You are going to be tough to beat in either!

 

[Maknifiso]

Big, stuff right there.

I think i agree on less busy now that i think of it.
Did you scale it back allot? it does look good tho. Are you gonna make the base very dark and dusty as in
colors? I think it'd be good contrast and it would bring the GH out in the scene more.

Just constructive thinking from me my good friend.

Keep rockin like you do.

 

[mariosmodelkits]

Gary and makni. thank you for your support and advise.

 

[mariosmodelkits]

gary- I really dont know yet, im still trying to get my base together and finnish up the kit. Its hard to choose :-\

 

[ScaleModelMadman]

Wow, most impressive!
