I've been thinking of the same thing and I saw one that I can use. GI Joe Special Weapon somethin something...but it's too expensive... or you can just buy the weapon set for $10.00

Update: Almost done with the decals after ruining 3 of them( 2 of which are the License tag) :(

Have you given thought to soaking the rubber parts in something like a dye or food coloring?

I might give it a try...

Here's a pix of the decals applied

Update: The dye method didn't work at all... my initial plan worked though - the permanent marker method...not exactly the color that I want but it's fine

here are some of the pix

whole body:

comments are welcome

thanks,

what is that little blue sd one? it looks like the gundam Kampher please tell me there is a big MG one like that out

Pretty cool but if you want that real NYPD vibe you need to weather the crap out of it. Dent up the corners, scuff up the paint and have some random small pieces fall off. ;)

That'd be the SD Henke version of Brocken Labor. The only other plastic injection kit it got was the 1/60 scale (builds up to about the size of a HGUC Gundam). It looks like the Kampher because both were designed by Izubuki.

Since the Brocken Labor is a minor mecha from the TV series that's not directly associated with any pilot or main characters, they never bothered with a MG release. Bandai should have continued the line with MG Helldiver and MG Type Zero, too bad the lackluster sales made them stop the line. :(

MG Ingram stands slightly taller than a MG Gundam, thanks to its bunny ear. It is proportionally larger as well.

That's outstanding work, there are some subtle modifications but were used very effectively. I love all the additional details, like the armor on the back of the head. Was the piece scratchbuilt? How did you paint the blue shoulder lights, was it Tamiya clear blue? On the inside or outside of the part?

Here's a pix of it w/ the 1/60 Brocken

Hi,

I'm not really sure which part are talking. but the only mod/scratch build that I did is the antena on the shoulder, everything is out of the box.

I just used clear blue on the blue light. I painted it inside and outside, then sealed it w/ future.

Thanks,

initially that was my idea..but i didn't have the courage nor the skill to make it look wheatered....but i'm liking the 'just out of the factory' look.

thanks,

that swat ingram is awesome. whats the second sd ingram in that pic? can't remember..

That's not an Ingram. The Ingram is Shinohara Heavy Industry AV-98 model specifically.

The other Shinohara Heavy Industry model is the AV-0 Zero. IIRC, it may have the Peacemaker monikor, but I'm not sure whether that's official.
