mojacko Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 Its been a long time since I posted here, so please be gentle. Its still a work in progress but its getting there. Manage to repair the shoulder for this booger, wet sand the entire thing, removed the old stickers then sprayed some primer unto it. I did manage to do post shading. Some work in progress WIPS. Quote
jvmacross Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Cool...looking forward to your finished work! BTW...it may have been planned for actual release by Bandai back in the day....sadly, it never happened... Quote
mojacko Posted June 1, 2016 Author Posted June 1, 2016 Thanks for dropping by...a little more WiP with little Hikaru: Quote
mojacko Posted June 7, 2016 Author Posted June 7, 2016 Too many parts for such a small figure... Quote
aaajin Posted June 7, 2016 Posted June 7, 2016 oh nice! another JM custom! going to so follow this thread...keep us updated! Quote
aaajin Posted June 8, 2016 Posted June 8, 2016 mojacko, I have to ask, what masking tape did you use? I remember my off the shelf tape falls off easily when spraying the paint on the parts. Thanks and cant wait to see the final product! Quote

Thanks and cant wait to see the final product! Honestly it was some el cheapo masking tape from dollarama, not bad for a buck. But of course if I have to go the right route I would definitely go with Tamiya Masking tapes. Recently bought a new masking tape from a nearby art shop but not Tamiya brand. Quote
mojacko Posted June 9, 2016 Author Posted June 9, 2016 Thanks guys. Much respect to the customizers @ MWorld! Quote
MechTech Posted June 11, 2016 Posted June 11, 2016 Nice Mojacko! Taking all those parts apart was worth it! Now you just need an SD Minmei - MT Quote

jardann Posted July 12, 2016 Posted July 12, 2016 Awesome job on that JM! You really did it the right way and it paid off. Did you sculpt the figure from scratch, or did you just modify the face/head on one? Quote
