1/100 MG Kampfer
Posted by dj898 on Sunday, October 15, 2006 4:18 AM
This is my 3rd MG Kampfer builds and for the change I'd built it almost straight out of box except few minor detailings - and B-Club HDM as I lost left hand parts while I was washing the parts. I opted for the standard Kempfer Blue in glossy finish. I always think Kempfer in glossy finish looks the best.

The only grief I have is the digicam I used didn't capture the blue that well. The pictures were taken under the natural lighting and still there were too much of blue overtone. Guess using the artificial lighting will be the way to go - either than or get a new digicam.

Hope you guys enjoy... ^ ^

What you need to do is set your white point so the background is neutral.

try a different color background, I like light grey that should help with the contrast as well.

do you plan to enter the MG Kempfer build next year over at the fichtenfoo forums?

Man that't sweet! I'd like to do one weathered olive drab or maybe a praying mantis shade of green.

ahhh the ms-18 kampfer.  the single meanest looking ms of them all among everything in the universal century saga, at least by my book.  i've seen it done in tiger stripes and other version in Gundam Weapons and online, but i think it's still better in blue.   and you did a great job on that.
