If it is not in the good thread, please move it.
I had the opportunity to put my hands on this Gojulas last month, but it was only because there was work to do on it.

Some parts were missing, like an attach for the back CP, a piece of a gun, the tubes, the part that goes behind the head (a part oftenly missing) and the weight. I got parts from a Canoneer Gordos for the CP and the tubes, and a friend sent me the weight and head part. Now, I was needing to paint them.
But first, there was a biggest problem : the tail was broken (as always !). I first tryed to glue it, but impossible to fix it like that, so I tryed to make a new attach.
I used the plastic parts I'm oftenly using for customs, with a "L" shape, that I holed to make it fit in the peg. But it wasn't sufficient.
So I had another part that was glued to the attach and to the tail, with a big space were the glue can take. Now the tail is not moving anymore.
Now, the parts :
For the grey, it wasn't difficult. I used my grey I have for my custom. It is not exactly the same grey (most of all the CP has yellowed) but it will do it like that.
The other, the brown part, was more difficult.
I wasn't pleased at all of my first attempt, so I retook the part and repaint it, but creating the good colour was really hard.
It is better, but not 100 % the same. Anyway, I letit like that, and it is matching better in real than on photo.
After, I finished with stickers.
I had the chance to have OJR and NJR Gojulas MK2 sticker sheets, with all the stickers I was needing. There was already one or two put on it, by chance at the good place. I made it like on the box art.
10 years I was after them...
