While working on the Gundam OYW I decided to take a day off to clear my mind - I’m yet to decide whether to make it as GM OYW or yet another Gundam OYW.
Anyway, I was watching the Terminal on the channel Nine and to kill the time during those annoying ad break I decided to build a HGUC GM kit that I have lying around.
Now this is rather hack job and the small details will be added later before I pull out the airbrush set. It’s rather simple modification that probably took me around half an hour to get it done. ^ ^;
Also it’s good excuse to use those scrap 1mm pla-plates that usually accumulated in the junk box after couple of projects.
Here’re HGUC GM built as OOB Vs modified GM Light Armour.
This will show the areas that I modified. (The mod is about two hours worth of tinkering on and off while watching Tom Hanks’ Terminal on the telly. ^ ^;)
For colour scheme I will stick to the official one with the some weathering and damage…
By the way if you want to do with the MG kit I suggest to start with MG GM Kai instead of GM.
FWIW, here’s one I found while searching Internet for the reference.
After long hard look I’ve decide to finish this one without the heavy weathering as I planned initially.
Next time I build another one I’m definitely going to try the heavy weathering though~
I’ve fiddled these pictures with the Photoshop to get the colour of orange close to the model’s colour.
All previous pictures showed ted bit lighter shade of orange…
However in doing so I somehow introduced too much noise… -__-;
About the lack of photo, I’m not good at the action pose.
Did tried couple and all of them looked rather goofy looking~ OTL
And you can check out the WIP I did for this build at below link.
