hguc dom tropen with added some movable parts

hi all

second  post

this is another of my preferred works with lots of mods, but even one of more unlucky works:

at first attempt the main sand color was another.. a model master sand unused for many years.. after firts layer done i notice that the color does not come dry...

even after few days. Used wrong thinner to rip of the enamel... enamel came out but the plastic (very different as scale kits plastic) came fragile.

The helmet was breaked in 3 or more pieces ,under legs with creeps

After all rejoined the pieces and recovered sanity works came out:

I can't suffer the sticker that came with these kits, specially to simulathe the monoeyes so i cutthed the base of visor and used as dime to made a clear visor.

monoeye and rails modelled with plasticard

works even on the giant bazooka, viewfinder with clear parts added, and others mods

Under rear foot totally cutted and added holes, central thruster maded by a carabine lead bullet,copper sctatchbuilded hinges to allow up down movement.

improved front skirt movements and added stucture details in all underskirt armo.movable actuators added on knees

Time ago , searching reference to detail it, i found on web a dom tropen with opened knee used as bay for training hook, so decide to try to do somethig like it.

the cover is opening. Used my compass cutter i made two sized plasticard circles, a cilinder in the middle ans from a wood ship kit i took some rope painted with humbrol steel to simulate metal wire. the rest are metal wires bended and glued with ac glue.

others mods on overall model are engraved exitsing panel lines and others panels to simulate a probably way to permit maintenance.

Added details on rear trhuster, beam saber locker.

so the complete reult: model master and humbrol enamel used with brushes. Decals printed by me with clear decals sheets.

I hope you like it
