stepping out of the box

Good day folks

I normally post to the aircraft forum but I’ve taken to stepping out of the box for a bit of a change. My son picked up this kit a a swap meet. I believe it’s a Neon Genisis Eva-03 figure. I don’t know much about it but he asked me to build it for him, it looked interesting, I like the shape and colors so I said why not. Don’t know what scale either. It’ s made by Bandai. It’s a fairly simple build. Lots of mold lines to clean up. The painting was a bit trickey. I decided to paint the white areas first, then use Glad press and seal as a masking medium, the I painted it MM flat black out of a rattle can. I accented the outtlines with a grey oil pencil and sealed with MM satin finish. The rear spinal area is MM chrome silver with Tamiya Clear blue over it. It was a refreshing build. There’s another one he has an EVA-05 that’s in white which I’ve started. I just might be hooked…! Anyway please enjoy.

Very nice paint job! Your son must be very happy now! You just can’t stop!

Wow! I don’t much care for anime, but that’s one very nicely done model subject! Is that a styrene kit or a vinyl kit?

from Bandai that will be the injection kit
I think this is one of their HG line-up

if anyone’s interested there are bunch of injection/resin/vinyl kits out on Evangelion and I’m talking about the mechas only here ^ ^

Very Cool

You did a GREAT job

Thanks all for the kind words. My son did in fact like it very much. Well back to aircraft for now.

Great build Neil, and welcome to the deep dark world of sci fi[}:)]
