Stand aside " the O "... I present to you " The crOtch "! lol
I managed to squeeze in a couple of hours yesterday and today before work to do the preliminary shapes and mods of the crotch, the front skirts and the chest part. Obviously I am going for an exaggerated steam punk - out of proportion - super sci fi - The O look.
Big Guns are the in thing these days, so aside from trying to scratch build a big Gun later, I started on a big backpack already, the big crotch is taking shape and the big front skirts also... will try to squeeze time to do the basic shape of the big rear skirt later today. hihi
Basically I used the tank of a Gunner Zaku for the chest and used some aqua epoxy to reshape it a bit. I will need to reshape it further coz the shape is too missile like. I think like any other mods... the chest will be the hardest part to refine and pull off.
I used some 2mm, 1.2mm and 1mm pla plates for the crotch and the front skirt. Obviously I have to beef up the front skirt soon, but the crotch has its main shape already. I will have to reshape the rear skirt and maybe the shoulder armors before detailing this build.
I just realized how slow I am in scratch building... I am having nose bleeds every time I measure the pla plates, but its kinda fun once you see and imagine how it will turn out. Anyways, here are some more angle pics of the preliminary mods so far...
ALL C&Cs are most welcome at this point of the build...thanks for dropping by! til' next update! XD

wow! your also here... appreciate the visit kabayan! XD
I bet it can do a crouch chop! great work bro!
hahaha! yeah it could... thanks bro! XD
OMG! the chest looks like a baby d**k!
impressive starts there~
Great work there bro.....interesting concept 'sazabi' steampunk concept! cant wait to c it!
boss donc! I like your idea on the chest, extending it to look more like a cockpit, like most AC mecha. Though in my opinion I kinda dont like the uber huge front skirts, but I'm guessing that is "the O" inspired. hehe, looking forward to this sir!
Thanks buddy! Oh I have no idea about steam detective, will research later... Hopefully will have better updates tomorrow night. XD
Thanks bro... will reshape the chest further and will beef up the skirt also...looks like a big fan as of now. hihi. XD
Thanks Phoon...same concept as my MG DOM actually but bigger. ;)
Thanks bro...hopefully it ends up the same as well. ;)
hehe, yeap it does... will try to reshape later. XD
when you said "Steam punk" theme... I thought it would look like that robot in "Steam Detective"... got ahead of myself... Good work DC!!! Awesome as usual... Looking forward to the next update!!
re you planning to make the night tale?
Nope! as much as I would want to... I do not have enough skills to pull off a Nightingale conversion bro. ;)
excited to see this finished!
Thanks bro! but that will be a while, I really have to work on my PG MKII commission very soon. XD
Hey Master Don, as you call Fichtenfoo master, I will call you my Master!...hehehe... i like your initial built of your kit. the chest looks like a but of a Bumble Bee though...Lol...hehehe... i'm kinda hesitant to bash my kit, i have 1/100 mg kits, just do simple panel linings & detailing... I'm afraid to do mods, co'z of the kit's price...hehehe...
Sorry Master, typo... i mean the chest looks like a Butt of a Bumble Bee or Wasp...hehehe...
When you said "Steam punk" first thing that came to my head was the anime "Steam Detective"... There was a mecha there. Then I saw it looks more like "The O" and im starting to like it...
GO kabayaN!!! Awesome as usual...
Woah!!! I still can't picture what you have in mind, but awaiting your next update.
No need bro!hahaha... I have reshaped the chest, it looks like a d*%k now. hahaha...practice modding HGUC kits, they are a lot cheaper than MGs. ;)
Thanks a ton for the encouragement kabayan! XD
Really bro? I got the idea from your post of the " the O II ", will post updates later bro ;D
