Renargent - Fox Type WIP

[reeyo]

Now, I been planning this zoid out for quite a while, and I finally got the final peices in for it from Hong Kong, so I began to work on it. Its going to be a high speed fox type zoid with large bladed weapon. This is going to be the first images, I plan to update this thread while I continue the build.

Head Right 2

The weapon System: Gatling Gun/Buster Blade - Idea behind this is the Fox zoid will be a close range combat specialty. Its blade is meant to slice zoids in two. The gatling gun is a smallbore-fast firing energy weapon, meant to mostly confuse the enemy with its fire, as its got very unstable firing base, and very low accuracy.

Wow... building a new fox out of a Witz and a Gul? You should enter it in the ZP contest when you're done!

[reeyo]

Maybe. I am currently taking suggestions for a Color scheme. I haven't decided on anything, and its getting to me. I got the body designed work out, and done, just need to finish gluing joints in place.

The legs will not be jointed, except at the shoulders, I kinda ran out of Connectors, and I don't feel like jointing it as I been having nothing but problems with the current ones. Every build attempt either removes the ball or the connector. Took so much glue, I am out for now, planning to get some tomorrow, hopefully I can get some in the morning, while I sleep and let it harden so I can do a build, and take a pic or two of it completed without paint

also..Still need a name >,<

Gladly taking suggestions for a Color-scheme and Name

ONly names I came up with: Knight Fox or Buster Fox

[Snowflake]

Cralfox!

[reeyo]

Why Cralfox?


Also, Just came up with the color scheme, Purple, with Gold trim with the interior being a dark-gray or black.

[Snowflake]

Why 'godos'? sometimes a weird syllable just sounds great in a zoid name
(actually it's a weird unrelated creature name a friend of mine came up with, but... had to suggest it!)

if it's going to be purple and gold, call it Renargent or Regendard or something because regent + renard..

[reeyo]

Oooh I like Renargent.

Also, do you mean Renard from Gunnerkrigg Court? Or from folklore? Or somewhere else?

Also: Broken down to Paint! Whoohoo You can even see the little chrome pilot waiting for thier zoid to be finished. So, hopefully we will see it in color.

[Snowflake]

renard just means fox ^_^' though I hear that's because of an old folktale that basically eclipsed the existing word for fox, which was somewhat taboo to say..

[reeyo]

Heh, I think I'll go with Renargent ^.^ Thankies!

Got all my paints in, just need to get some masking tape now to tape off sections, and some boards newspapers sot prevent spray going everywhere

[KAndrw]

Renargent is cool - especially if you paint it silver!

[reeyo]

The under body (the legs and torso section) Are all silver, along with the Buster-blade.
So ya, I think Renargent is going to be the name. ^.^ Thanks Snowflake, it was a great suggestion.

The zoid is now finished painting, and I think i am Going to take Maethius Suggestion and enter in the ZP contest.

>,< All the Ball joints are tight now, which is nice. The jaw is also nice and tight which is great.
