Going to jump in with a new build for my first in progress post on MA.
This is a Bandai 1/144 Gundam kit but one of their older kits from 20 years or so ago. So I'm going to add a little more detail and scribe some more panel lines onto it.
This is the kit built up first, took about 3 or so hours - next up - break it down and sort the parts out for some work. Got the 1/144 Gundam RX-78-2 standing on the left as a size comparison.
This is so i can glue the shoulders together and be able to slot the arms in and out - will help for the paint process. May not be pretty but you wont see it once complete.
I've just used some odds and ends to liven it up a bit. The last pic shows where I've cut the pelvis so i can shorten the model by 6mm or so - it looks a little lanky otherwise. Panel lining and painting next. Cheers chaps.
