Most of the week was working on a new project.
I have decided to enter a new contest. The group I am with, Gunpla Builders of Chicago, is doing a coopted contest with a regional group. The theme for the build is Gundam Build Fighters. That theme was described as just custom work. So, I'm going a little wild. This is what I have so far;
No paint as of yet. These Gundam kits come molded in color, and are normally snap-fit. This build uses parts from Gundam Vidal, a LaGowe, and a Tiren ground type. I was intending to have a top-heavy look, but I appear to have underestimated the size of the LaGowe chest. I may try bulking it out a bit. I plan on picking up some Milliput tomorrow. I think a hump on the back, using a kit part as a former for some Miliput. There are also meant to be intake grilles on the chest. I may use them as intended, or I may try with a different idea.
I have also been repairing my centaur for Dungeons and Dragons.
I replaced the white metal axe haft, fitted originally with butt-joints, with a rod-and-tube haft. The rod, brass, runs the entire length of the tube, copper, through the hand and into the axehead. I also used some rod to pin his top to his bottom. Torso to neck, as it were. Filling and another coat of primer will come next here. I want to figure out more on the kitbash, first.
