I assembled/painted the Commlock just over a year ago, and I finally got around to putting the Stun Gun together this week! I think they came out pretty well! :) #space1999 #modelbuilding #painting #scifi

My workspace is finally reorganized, so I can get back to building. I'll be starting work on the X-Plus Bride of Frankenstein model kit soon for a Halloween Group Build.

Picture of a hobby workspace for building scale models. A old computer desk with chair in the center and a lit articulating lamp. A spray booth to the left on top of an old kiddy-dresser and stool. A mini-fridge on the floor to the right and hanging paint rack on the right wall. Various tools and supplies are stored about and tucked in various places. Concrete floor with blue carpet and white painted cinder-block wall. A window for booth venting is currently closed and the blinds are down.A box of the X-Plus Bride of Frankenstein model kit. On a wooden shelf and gray background. The illustration of the Bride has her arm extended over and electric generator with yellow sparks shooting out. The painted background is of her operating table and the doctor's lab. Main text is in yellow and smaller text in white. The kit is 1/8 in scale.

Actually finished him last night, but I wasn't feeling up to writing the alt text at the time.

I unfortunately broke a peg off trying to fight through a too-tight fit, so I had to cement one of the shields on. I don't think that'll actually hold particularly well, so I may need to drill to reinforce, but for now it's *fine.*

Good Boy's lookin' pretty fine now.

A photograph of Good Boy in a side profile view, looking at his right side. He has a big dual-barrelled cannon dealie up top with big shield dealies on the outer sides, a speed booster on the back leg and a minigun on the foreleg.Another photograph of Good Boy's opposite side. It's essentially the same, except the front left leg has a shock cannon on it instead. The paint on the left side is probably overall a lot more marbled than the right as well.

Starting with Nick's new digs, the caps are swapped from orange to black. It makes the orange on the shoulders stand out that much more, but... I think I'm fine with it.

Good Boy's body is finished. The AC cannon and other accessories will come later, maybe tomorrow.

It looks worse in pictures than in person, which is an odd contrast to, say, Natalia, who got a lot of compliments from people who only saw pictures of her, but whose flaws are apparent in person.

#Zoids #ModelBuilding #PlaMo

A photograph of the original command wolf I built in 2023. It now resembles the motorized kit from the original Japanese release of Zoids back in '84, save for the weapon lacking a gunner's seat and the orange rings around the shoulder armour. And the greater degree of detail and colour separation, of course.A photograph of the new Good Boy. Very few parts of him are unpainted and it really shows: the skeleton is black, the pipes on the exhaust are gunmetal, the armour is blue, and even the pipes on the backs of the legs are copper. This contrasts nicely against the bare orange plastic caps. The paint on the armour looks roughly sketched on, rather than brushed, which is frustrating to say the least.A macro photograph close up to Good Boy's cockpit. The silhouette of the pilot is clearly visible through it, and you can maybe tell that he's been painted gold.

Sitting out the only pride thing I wanted to go to this year trying to want to live, so let's build a dog.

Remember Good Boy? He was my first, from January of 2023. The first pic is his core. It's going into a new body. That's right, my good boy is getting chassis surgery :3

The paint on the armour wound up a bit.. I dunno, marblier than it looked like it would before it fully set? It's alright, but kind of a disappointment after the effort put in.

Legs soon.

A macro photograph of an HMM Zoid core, a small bumpy PVC orb, translucent red in colour, sitting in the unique command wolf core caddy. It's Good Boy.A photograph of the finished head of Good Boy's new body. It's an HMM command wolf, same as the original, but nearly every part is painted here: the teeth are gold, painted by me because this release doesn't have them prepainted, the armour is dark blue, with a metallic sheen, and the skeleton, not really showing in the picture too well, is black and shiny.A photograph of the new command wolf in a side profile, sans the legs and weapons. The exhaust pipes on the back are painted a dark gunmetal which still contrasts pretty nicely with the unpainted brown chokes, and the ball joints and weird slate gray parts on the sides are left alone as well. The armour looks particularly spotty on the left side facing the camera.
