Deng my post of the second part just hilang into thin air! So i just brieftly type wat i did again loh!

The backpack of Zudah is a combination of 3 parts (excluding the Jupiter Boaster), as we all know when combining 2 parts together there will always be seam line, but seam lines doesnt always need to be remove with Plastic Cement! We can modify it to make it look like a panel line.


So wat i did is scratch the part when my Hobby knife is pointing gently (both side of the armor)


So the finish thing will be like below

The gap is bigger now and wider too! It will look much better than the seam line gap! and if u look closer u will notice

Beside Seam lines there are also some other lines than really make the armor part look ugly! This line are form becoz of the mold itself, when 2 mold join together the gap between will form a thin line of the plastic.


To settle this problem u need to sand them with sand paper or scratch it of with ur Hobby Knife! The result will be like the following

There are also some on this surface but i had sand them away.....

Ok last part is i drill away the 4 button on the armor and added on some of my own Kotobukiya MSG parts on it! The result definitely is better than the original

i also agree, u overdid the backpack joh! Why add so many stuff on it??? The part u open a vent and the panel line is still nice.

Deng one lazy to type stuff on my progress but i think so ppl know that my snap fit is around 90% finish!

Part 4 here come come and continue
Like always the seam line in the head part......fill with plastic cement and then sand it! But becareful becoz after u stick it u wont be able to open it up again!

Ok paint the darn capsule looking thing on the shoulder first before u start installing it!

I used the Gundam Marker Silver to settle the problem, but do remember to wash ur part with detergent first so the paint can stick better!


Now gonna mod the shoulder part so it can cover seam lines easy and u can still remove the inner frame easily!

OK is the time again! Zudah Zudah Zudah....

Today it is a small update only, as we all know recent HG kits the lower body armor skirt now used Ball Joint to allowed you to flip up and down! The Zudah one was a bit unique.


The whole thing comes i one rod, and no ball joint at all limiting all the action it can do.


Although they do it so, but it still doesnt mean we can cut it in to 2 separates parts!


Now it is better than before, it can flip on its own without having dragging the others up!


That all for the skirt armor part, now on to the leg joint part.
This Zudah joint is quite superb, it allows the kit to do more than 90 degree bending really pawns some MG articulation. By the way a little touch is required to make it look more natural!

This is my finish Alty 1/100!

More pic will be posted later....

Before

and After


I AB it and also did some shading effect on it! Then later i used Gundam Weathering Marker to do the extra touch up and weathering!

did u do the leg mod?

Chris i still prefer Yellow color gray wolf! Anyway good work on the riffle!

this is HGUC one right?

HMy Zudah is finish (the MS part weapon havent even start)
Now come to think about it..... the speed i build my kit are ridiculous slow.....
Anyway this one, I didnt AB, I just used Enamel Wash and then clean up, and again weather it with the Gundam Weathering Marker.

The guren hand is the onli part i am not tat happy about! The finger cant really bend much! Anyway HS damn expensive buying those gundam kits..... better used Rainbow 10!

one word chris..... u are going to overdo ur kit again.... dun add up too many things on it. The thing u add below tat sazabi.... it doesnt even look nice......

FYI Lancelot Conquesta used back the old mold just they modified the shoulder and leg outer armor abit..... the whole thing is basically the same old Lancelot.

yah after u mention it i also feel kind of weird.......blowing forward one.....

eh wat paint u used on ur sazabi? Why some parts look so rough?

10 years no post here joh! My Lancelot Air Calvary took me forever to finish.....


More could be seen in my blog

hmmmm u referring to me or to Tempt? My Lancelot is AB one.... just the mini Suzaku there is hand painted.
