Gundam Group Build #2 in 2006

Yes it is Gundam Group Build #2. the other one ended up dying out when the deadline hit and i said i would start a new one, so here it is.
The rules are as follows:
1.as long as it is gundam it is allowed.
2.already started kits are okay
3.kits from other Gundam GB’s are also Allowed
4.there is no age restriction (all are welcome)
5.when you are done feel free to start another kit
6.there is no deadline (but lets not slack)
7.let me know of any change in kits that are being built so that i may update as needed also let me know what scale and grade your kit is.
8. if you want to chop, damage or kitbash it is all okay, as long as it is gundam

well that is all for the moment if you have an idea for the group build badge lets hear it i don’t have the software to make one so i leave it up to you all. i am also kinda new here so i haven’t figured everything out yet, so please be patient.

any questions or anything feel free to post it here or email me at Mustangs102@yahoo.com

Yeah another build, put me on the list. I just dont know what to build as of yet.

last time i didn’t even finish with the ground type due to a ton of crap i had to do for work and then warhammer 40k minis.

i guess you can sign me up for now as i am still running a debate on the custom paint job for a 1/144 HGUC mk.II, and had finished cutting the parts off of a MG Ez8 like 2 months ago. eventually i will get to them.

Count me in. I’m going to finish these Turn A Gundams if it’s the last thing I do…

yay i am so excited the kits that i ordered so i can complete the ZZZ just arrived today. i will have pictures up in the morning of them (gotta get some sleep before work!!!). i will say the 1/144 meteor kit is quite large and the 1/550 dendrobium is not quite as large as i thought it would be but eh who cares they are sweet.

hey A Mejias what grade are your Turn A’s so i can post that.

ya so like i am runnig low on space for my photobucket so i had to limit my pictures for right now that i put up there but i got a pic of the boxes of the Meteor and the Dendrobium up on my photo bucket. i am going to end up building the kits as they are intended except for the freedon since i already have the kit i will eventually use the freedom in a chop or battle damage it maybe. i will take photos and as i go if you all might be able to help me figure out how i can connect the two together and then still make it attachable to the ZZZ. if the clamps work on the dendrobium i think i might switch the dragons out for those and see from there. so come on guys how are the kits progressing? lets see some pics and get some updates!!!

try and get people to join the GB. i will be posting on var. boards to get people to join but we will see.
hope to hear from you all

Can I enter my 1986 plastic model kit 1/60 Zeta Gundam to this?..

I just ask one thing… If I dont post in a while, or dissapear… Can someone give me a message to give me a kick along?..

Chris

well yes you can chris i will add you to the list. keep in mind as long as it is gundam it goes. welcome to the GB. and yes i will be happy to give a little kick to all who need the nudging sometimes.

Hey everybody,

I ran across this group build on 4chan and thought I would join you guys. I am getting ready to build a 1/144 Rick Dom so I’d like to take part in the group build if thats cool with everyone. It’s been a awhile since I picked up the ol paintbrush.

hey welcome to the group Malich can"t wait to see the Rick Dom finished you planning to do any heavy detail or modifications?

I decided to start off with a 1/144 ZAKU II instead of the DOM. I am waiting on some resin parts to come in for the DOM so I will do that one next. I wish I could get some better hands for the ZAKU. I hate the way the plastic molded hands look. As for the DOM it actually is a 1/144 DOMTROPEN from Stardust memory. I plan on picking up a 1/100 Rick DOM from HLJ soon though. Not sure yet how or if I will modify the ZAKU or DOM. I will snap some pic’s as soon as I get started. I will probably prep the pieces this weekend but that is all I will get done since I have some Air Force buddies coming in. Time to kick back drink some brew and walk down memory lane again!

Ok so when do we start this build? I think I will enter with the 1/144 Endless Waltz Death
scythe H-Custom.

we start well we don’t have a start date we are just going when it started. since a few of us are from the other GB thatyou were part of also. but hey let me know what you are going to build so i can update.

Ok so here is what I am going to enter the build with 1/144 Gundam Deathscythe hell custom I already worked on the legs today,all I had time for

Well I got the Zaku all washed up so next step will be to start on the feet. That will happen on Monday after the out of town guests leave. I will post some pics once I get the legs together.

at the moment I’m doing about three projects at the same time
there’s battle damaged zaku II diorama with either city street background or country farm house background

then there are zaku F2 with one being built as ground special while the other one is being built as Char Custom. Both features rotating waist as well as minor exterior modifications.

and then my usual on and off side pojects - scratching building, house and other sorts in between for diorama use

Got the basics of the kit built today, pretty easy build. Just a few seams here and there that need filling in so thats the work for tommorrow

Well I didn’t get as much done today as I wanted but I did get one leg test fitted along with a little internal gluing and clean up. I will continue to work on the legs this week. Sanding the rubber type joint parts sucks out loud. I had forgotten that this scale kit had those type of rubber joints.

I’ll have to figure out posting images later.

Rich

just do what i do and use photo bucket so you and we can keep a better track of things and their progress. and get this it’s free!!! well after a bit of cleaning in the apt to get it ready for about four arriving kitties i will start on getting the meteor assembled i will be actually building it as it is supposed to be built before i start ripping it apart for the chop job. i will hopefully have some pics up by the afternoon to early evening.

Okay I created a photobucket site so here are two pics from the workbench. All the stuff that was piled on the bench went to the floor so that’s why it looks so clean.[:)]

here are the pics:
