Inspired by Ah Wee speech last AGM, I hurried back and finished this build.
Cant wait to see how this gundam look like so i assembled all of them...
the main skeleton have been glued alltogether...

i just snap fit the armour/skin to the skeleton to see the actual shape...the kit will be modify slightly which i still havent decided yet...(huahahahaha..so ambitous)
the IWSP pack parts are still in the box....and the weapon...

i will remove the skin/armour next to paint them... they will recieve custom colors...

comments are welcome....

the screw driver is just something i cant resist to do..since no weapon is being assembled, i replace it with screw driver...

the supplied display stand is being tested too...

The kit looks good OOB Silantra!

Even the screwdriver looks like a derivative of a lightsaber lance! :D

Lets see where this leads, shall we? B)

cheers,

Ken

hi all...it has been a while for update on this built...last holiday finally i got a chance to continue..

i dismantle all of the armour suit and start working on the skeleton. I prime with Mr Surfacer and then paint the entire skeleton with modelmaster buffing Titanium.
Here's the pic of the legs part..to show the different after and before buffing. The left part showed the part before buffing and the right after buffing.
