UN Spacy Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 Whoa. I hope they have enough invested to finish the entire project. On a related side note whatever happened to that guy that was building that Gundam (was it the Deathscythe)? I believe it was 1/2 scale (or something like that).

peter Posted January 1, 2005 Share Posted January 1, 2005 The really cool thing is, he's making the thing out of metal, like a tank. It's not a fibreglass-sculpt job. Looks amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GRAND CANNON Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 (edited) Humina-humina...... 1/1 Scopedog completeCocolog Books has an article announcing the debut of the essentially completed 1/1 "Scopedog-Brutish Custom" that was being constructed in Japan. It says that the man single-handedly behind the project, Kogoro Kurata, actually managed to get approval from Sunrise. Which explains the presence of VOTOMS mecha designer Kunio Okawara, director Ryosuke Takahashi, and character designer Norio Shioyama at the scene. On top of this, Cocolog Books also announced the May publication of "Tataki Tsukuru Koto", a book commemorating the design & construction of the real real robot with photos and a discussion with the three VOTOMS creators. ¶ 12:20 PM Maybe our newest Photshop wizard, chris, can paint this baby!!!

Majestic Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 (edited) Wow! It even "kneels" for cockpit access like the "real" Scopedog! EDIT: Unless this is just a pre-mounting to legs shot.. Edited April 5, 2005 by Majestic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSW Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 Wow! It even "kneels" for cockpit access like the "real" Scopedog!EDIT: Unless this is just a pre-mounting to legs shot.. With that much metal on the upper body, it would need to be anchored to the ground (as in steel I-beams buried 6 feet deep in concrete) for such a feature to actualy work.
