Prototype Z Sagat Complete

After months of juggling between work, plamo and family with my firstborn on the horizon, I've finally completed the Prototype Z Sagat that was commissioned to me months ago. I've painted it using Vallejo Air which is more manageable as it was ready to use in an airbrush, no more mixing! I've used Vallejo Wash for the base. Next is Prototype Z Ryu!

  Thanks for viewing!

Sagat by ProtoType Z studios part 1

Got a Commission work from a client in the USA, and i was excited to hear that its a prototype Z studios' Sagat. After waiting for more than a month( sea freight )for the item to get here, Finally i got a message that it is ready for pick-up. Surprise! It came with Ryu! my client asked to do both. After Buying paint to be used in this project, finally this commission is on the move.

on this project, I'll be trying a new batch of paint brands( vallejo and Gaia notes ) as my client asked to not be cheap in paint. as an additional payment for the work, my client sent me a portable air compressor ( Vogue air, primary used in airbursh make-up ). the compressor works like a charm as i can carry it around with its battery pack and not to worry about any power outlet.

Pegged the legs first and I've used strong earth magnets for Sagat to have easy assembly when the finished kit arives back to my client. Great part of this kit is that it comes with two different heads of Sagat, One with normal face and one with a more fierce expression.

I've attached magnets in the head for it to be interchangeable. after pegging, I've binded the figure as the putty and epoxy glue hardens as it is so heavy (more than 1 kilo).

After binding for 2 days, I can finally start to paint! yeah! Started to coat it with Vallejo primer to find flaws that needed fixing.

After drying the primer and fixing, painted it with flesh tone vallejo as a base color, there I will layer other flesh tone to create more depth to the color.

MG Wing Gundam Proto Zero Announced

According to Gundam ACE magazine, They announce an upcoming MG release, Wing Gundam Proto Zero.
Many modellers had their take on MG wing zero, but this wing zero is based on the new wing gundam MG line, not the T.V. neo bird mode version. This will be a great addition to my Wing gundam collection. MG Epyon will now have a match. After the release of the Blue ray rendition of the popular wing gundam series, maybe we'll have an HD remaster of it after gundam seed.

 

With the release of the Blue ray edition later this year, I think bandai is planning big for the Wing Gundam Series.

Someday...

sevenst's Wing Zero, one of the best conversions yet.

1/100 Gundam Virtue (Trial System)

I did this less than 24 hours, just sanded the numb marks and seam lines and painted the parts with proper color. I've created the hair of nadleeh out of a soda tin can. I've used the aluminum to create strips and painted them vermilion red. Aluminum can be bent and curve easily. I've used a super thin wire to hold the armor parts and recreate the scene from gundam OO. used some I.C. chips I found from an old mother board for detail. After that, I've joined a local customized Mecha competition (ToyCon) held in SM megamall. I've won second place.

Lacus Clyne - 1/6 - Dress ver. (Lazy toy)

Got this Figure for a very cheap price. Good quality for the materials used for this figure. High Quality resin, superb paint and seam-line masking. Although Lacus' chest is a bit exaggerated IMO. The only issue is she can't properly hold Haro (a bit lose), but still a great figure.
