Bandai 1:144 Zeon Prototype recon Zaku In-Progress Details » Discussions »
This kit was built to be displayed at an anime con for the Bandai model kit Caravan program. This kit was given away at a model workshop with in the con and I modeled it show how far attendees can go with theres. I also really dislike The Gundam Seed Zaku Warrior so heavy modification were made to make it look UC...

This was built using the First Grade Zaku Warrior...

Painting:
Air brushed and hand painted with Tamiya Acrylics, Aqueous Hobby Color and Citadel wash...

Modification:
Gelgoog head piece, extra thruster, IC pins, styrene, putty and chopping and changing parts. More info in the WIP...

Creativity:
With the help of a sheet of Ramba Ral custom decals I was able to make this kit look like a zeon recon custom Zaku...

Base:
Built using a printed image, perspex and a clear resin rod...

There is no silvering, just bad photos, lol. But I did used heap of softener on the shoulder's decal but I think threr is a limit to Bandai decals being thicker then normal. You will see other nasty bits due to this kit being rushed. Thank you to everybody else for the nice comments...

While I actuially really like this, there are a few things you need to do. One if you can, center the paper image on the base more to the bottom left. Second, put ALOT more decal softener on that shoulder's decal, I can see alot of silvering and other nasty stuff

you've done yourself proud. the mods are pretty fluid and I love the painting and decals. I think this is a creative ace especially considering the base kit.

Can't believe this was an FG kit.. great shoulder mods especially the right shoulder amour. Love the base the most ^^.
