HYPER WEAPON La-01 SAZABI

Well it's done...

HGUC SAZABI La-01 unit 7e 421

The Matte Top Coat actually toned down the desert yellow washes...

Might have been better to have mixed some Flat Base on the orange paint mixes before painting...

oh well... next time... plus 1000 xp...

Close Up Detail Shots...

I know this gallery didn't make use of a makeshift "studio"...

I might redo photography outside of my apartment, under natural light and environment...

This might be the first model I ever finished

living in Tokyo, Japan... 

while trying to figure out just what's going on with my life...

and I'll let you know when I do...

HYPER WEAPON La-01 SAZABI [WIP 2]

I redid the Zimmerit Coating on the body, and the back skirts...

I added few more details on the back pack engine and head...

And I think I overdid the sheild...

Tamiya Putty Basic Type mixed with Mr Hobby Lacquer thinner...

I tried using the 1/100 Mechanical Hand that I had
because the original 1/144 Sazabi hands can't hold the custom weapon well...
I ended up using the smaller 1/144 Zaku FZ and Geara Doga hands
because the bigger fully articulated hands looks funny and doesnt really match the design
and smaller hands actually makes any Mobile Suit look bigger... for me...

Possibilities...

... now...

Summer just started...

currently mixing paints...

testing color schemes with Photoshop...
