Well that worked out. Next step, test primer! #plasticoddities #2019plasticodditieskits #maschinenkrieger
Tristan Forsyth:
Arms? I think this will work. #plasticoddities #2019plasticodditieskits #maschinenkrieger
Tristan Forsyth:
Second round of putty #plasticoddities #p#2019plasticodditieskits #maschinenkrieger
Tristan Forsyth:
Should I leave it where it is or 1) cut at an angle/45 or 2) cut it higher up but flat/90?? I’m conflicted!! #plasticoddities #2019plasticodditieskits #maschinenkrieger
Tristan Forsyth:
First round of sanding and shaping done #plasticoddities #2019plasticodditieskits #maschinenkrieger
Tristan Forsyth:
Pig pilot.... maybe! Only thing I have to scale! 😜🐖🐖🐖 #plasticoddities #2019plasticodditieskits #maschinenkrieger
Tristan Forsyth:
Making some side and back armour flaps for the Zaku Head Ma.k #plasticoddities #2019plasticodditieskits #maschinenkrieger
Tristan Forsyth:
Starting to bulk the back out. Still have to work out how to not cover up the hinge without it looking too weird. Will shape it and see. Also have to fill out the sides a bit. Lots of putty in my future! #plasticoddities #2019plasticodditieskits #maschine

Reference pic to keep it all together

Trying to visualise how to fill the back out with putty whilst still allowing the top of the head to open like a hatch! My first, big putty shaping attempt..... #plasticoddities #2019plasticodditieskits #maschinenkrieger
Tristan Forsyth:
What it looks like. Kind of works! #plasticoddities #2019plasticodditieskits #maschinenkrieger
Tristan Forsyth:
Tried to make my own hip covers from scratch using part of the door/window. Sort of worked! #plasticoddities #2019plasticodditieskits #maschinenkrieger
Tristan Forsyth:
Basic bracing
Tristan Forsyth:
Step 2? #plasticoddities #2019plasticodditieskits #maschinenkrieger
Tristan Forsyth:
Step 1 #plasticoddities #2019plasticodditieskits #maschinenkrieger
Tristan Forsyth:
Old school glue !!
Tristan Forsyth:
I’ve got the big boy mat out. It must be serious. #plasticoddities #maschinenkrieger
Tristan Forsyth:
When you see a picture and go ’I reckon I could build that’ and then go ‘Hang on... maybe not as I don’t have the right size bits’ and then you go and have a rummage around! One 1/24 helicopter and a 1/35 zaku head. I do believe I have a start. Like I don
Tristan Forsyth:
LOL.... even though the proportions are close, it still looks out of whack! Oh well.... #plasticoddities #2019plasticodditieskits #mak #scratchbuild
