Plan 303E " DeepStriker " ver DC23 this 2012!

As I've said in a previous post, I plan to challenge myself by building a DeepStriker out of a MG EX-S for 2012.

People who knows me in real life pretty much knows I am super " broke " and strapped for cash these days ( weeks, months ). So I thought of asking for sponsorship for this project ( or else wifey would kill me ). Special thanks to my good friend Matt Tomczek for offering to sponsor a MG EX-S kit, very much appreciate it man but I could not accept ( maybe next year ). :)

SO now I am proud and happy to announce that I will be working on a Plan 303E DeepStriker conversion on a MG EX-S Gundam for my 2012 year end project. The project will be sponsored by no other than the best source of toys and Gunpla here in the Philippines GREATTOYSONLINE.com.

GreattoysOnline.com will be providing me the kit/s needed for this huge undertaking. This marks the first time that a big personal project will be sponsored by a Gunpla / toy store. Unlike my other year end / contest projects of the past 3 years, this should be extra fun as I would obviously  save a lot of money working on the project.

The objective of the build is to convert a MG EX-S Gundam into a DeepStriker. Unlike my The O II conversion, the additional challenge is to try to produce something clean. Modification techniques will also be a lot more complicated as I cannot slap on zimmerit patterns to fill the huge open spaces. Add the fact that I am not really good at working with Gundam kits as I usually work on Zeon MS kit designs.

Due to my primitive utterly very basic scratch building skills, I am sure to come up with something different than the original DeepStriker design. My inability to copy or replicate those sb parts will instantly result to a different version of the design.

On a side note, thank you so much for those who voted on my poll on " What could be my next big project ? ". The Devil Gundam won in a landslide.

Anyways, thanks a ton for dropping by! Hope to put on a show once I start my DeepStriker project. Til' next update guys! :)
