Backlog Stuff
Well, this Big scale Strike Gundam came along one day from my brother’s long time friend. Just assembled it to check out how it looks and i’m not too pleased i might say. I don’t intend to do much to change it though, just some mods here and there. Make it more angular, more sharp, less toyish. Not going to detail anything. Seems like a simple snap-fill-sand-prime-paint job. Well, Not so simple actually. I haven’t gotten used to building so many and painting them, Especially non-MG models. They tend to be tedious in the masking department.
Without anymore jabbering, here are the pics:
A Picture of the big guy. Notice the thickness of the arms and legs.
Chest is largely smooth and un-inspiring
The popeye arms. Big and bulky
Check out its one peice solid butt
Thick leggys and rounded feet make it toyish.
In conclusion, i don’t think this was every produced to cater to real modellers because of all the weird proportions but i’m sure a very serious modeller could turn it into something really nice.
