Here's the little claw:



The little holes in the bottom I'm going to fill w/ model cement, then I'm going to paint over it.


this shows the claw's articulation.

Waddya think so far?

Currently,I'm inside the painting of my racing entry, I still have a bag full of parts for Zeherl, and I'm also gathering parts for a future big custom, and for my OER Blox.

JUST finished CHIGUAN (chibi iguan) ;D but i need to take pictures of him.

also, i still need to paint my racing entry..
hint: its small, used to be a wind-up, and has lotsa boosters.

[Lionel]

I did a lot of work on Zeherl today, and it is going the good way. Zeherl MK2 will look ridiculous near him. Now I'm needing some little parts to arrive, and I can paint and finish.

[ScissorBreaker]

like...um...baratz ridiculous or gunbluster ridiculous?

[Lionel]

It will be... well you will see. And this one will be articulated.

I spent last night going nuts with a sinker. having hollowed out the inside I've managed to fit a lighting circuit AND a dimena petra motor into his guts.
I have fitted one of hte new wheels, now I need to to cut down the new axle, and install the other wheel. Then it is soldering iron time.
then some more cutting, putty, pinning the wings, and paint. doing a wind up to battery op conversion is a huge time killer.

[Lionel]

My OER Blox is in a good way. I finished all the scratch yesterday, and I'm inside the painting. If all goes well, I will be done tonight.

Customs completed (and gotta post photos)
- Re-painting of some Spearwing parts so I can use them with Genius Wolf - now known as HB-002 Spear Wolf.
- repaint of a Diploguns - I've decided that this'll be my Manifest-dedicated custom (so there's going to be white with pink, purple and blue bits).

Customs in progress:
- C(hangeable) O(ffense) S(ystem) for my König Wolf (well, it'll work with any Zoid with a hard point on its back): a base turret was made from a de-gunned Elephander turret. The COS works simply by having a weapon set fit on top of (and around) the turret. Two COS's been created (one needs painting) with at least two more on the way. I'm scrounging around $2/bargain bin shops for cheap action figures/bootleg toys for potential weapons/guns/cannons/etc. Materials used include various weapons from other toys (I've been trying to create 'weapon themes' so that each COS has weapons from one series), some super glue and some small/hard black plastic garden pipings for extra frameage. I may post photos at a later stage.
- A CAS-of-sorts for a König Wolf.

Customs to plan:
- repaint of a Redler: planning black armour with red canopy, wings, 'chest' and 'foot' armour. Actually, I may paint a second one with white instead of black and blue instead of red. Not sure what I'd do for weapons.
- repaint of a König Wolf MkII - undecided colours, but probably red armour with a black/dark grey (same grey as CP-22) body. Might make some changes/additions to the armour and link the name 'Bad Wolf' somewhere.
