HWR MKII

nice build neptune. is that the arii kit or the imai one? good job on matching the colors too. did you use any reference or just the series and the box instructions

love the build at the ama site fernando. ive just picked up an arii monster myself. any suggestions on details? also excellent job on the paintwork it really looks like a battle hardend armored vehicle. what scale is the oshkosh cargo truck in front of it? since the macross series happens in this decade i might make a few abrams tanks or something similar in scale with it just to get a feeling of how large the monster actually is. keep up the wonderful work sean

ewilen thanks for the link it helped a little i really need info on fit problems and attention spots like that i want to go into this kit head on. i build mostly tanks and macross items so i want to combine the two in the most perfect way i can. i did notice one detail in the anime that is not on the kit. the monster had tank style smoke dischargers on the nose. it was split second on screen but hard to miss when the screen is 10 ft by 5 ft. just to wet some appetites i have some small pics of the box and contents to show the condition of the kit.

thanks for the reply grayson. i will be posting some pics of other subjects soon. i hope you like them

its sean again i plan on posting pics during construction so you guys can follow along i should have the kit in about 2 weeks. my first pic is posted now
