Global Scale Modeller

So this is my firs Gundam thníng, I got it as a prize from Lysus for the Sci Fi SIG last year. So I thought I would try to get this thing together for this SIG. Now I don't know a thing about these things, but I'll have a go and see how it turns out.


The kit, now I totally forgot to take any sprue shot. I was sure I had and just started building and then saw I hadn't. So you'll just have to trust me that I didn't start too early


The kit goes together easily without any problem, took me an evening to build.


Took it apart again to start prepping for some modifications and then paint.


I wanted it to have a bit rougher look, so I added some texture by dabbing Mr Surfacer 500 on almost all the light green parts using a cut down brush. I will probably knock it back a bit using a sander as it's a bit heavy for the scale.


As it stands now, next up is to add some battle damage.

Hi Jon looks good, like the texture idea and looks meaner already, good luck with the rest of the build it's my first one too

Excellent! I think you'll enjoy it, it's a great kit to weather up.

ZULLLUUUUU!! bloddy savages!

Hi there, just a reminder that one month remains to complete your build in order to qualify for the prize draw! Hope all is well and we all look forward to seeing your work!

Just realized the other day that it's just over a week left, so I better start doing some stuff!

Have managed to paint pretty much everything during the weekend, started with painting pretty much everything in Mr Hobby Super iron followed by chipping fluid on some of the parts. These where then painted in Vallejo RLM71 and the paint chipped. The rest of the parts where painted in RLM 70 and some where left in the Super iron. Still need to do a bit of detail painting and then start the weathering.

Looking mean, Jon! Love it.

I need to get to work on mine, too
