Feather Wings OR Mechanical Wings ???

Although I think any wing type on a 1/35 resin kit of the Gundam Wing Zero Custom is going to be kickass, We are actually having a very difficult time of deciding on how we will approach the sculpting of the Wings of our 1/35 project. Here are a few images that we are currently looking at...

The sculptor is actually working on the head sculpt already and we figured to set up a poll for the meantime and get feedbacks from you guys ( possible buyers ) on what wing type will be most marketable for our project.

I do think hardcore fanboys will hate us for altering the wing design. However I doubt modelers which are into the quality of the design and the aesthetics of the output, will bash as for trying to come up with a unique yet faithful design of the Wings of the Gundam WZC.

We could play it safe and base the design on the Master Grade Wings OR redesign it and create some mechanical looking wings, OR give the kit an Angel feather wings instead. Please help us decide by answering in this poll as we really need help on what wing type to build. Thank you in advance guys!

Thanks a ton for voting and helping us decide on the wing type for our project! Til' next post guys! :)

1/35 Gundam WZC Resin Project - detailing instructions

This post will be edited as I will put detailing instructions on these photos in Photoshop and Illustrator.
Our partner Alex Arevalo aka Oceansean has a sculptor working on the head sculpt already. I will be sending him my Snap fitted Master Grade Wing Zero Custom for a better reference.

We decided to just use Photoshop to add detailing instructions for the sculptor as his guide. The proportions of the 1/35 Gundam WZC will be more or less similar with the Master Grade. We decided to do the details in photoshop simply because I will be very limited in terms of what I can do with a very small 1/100 master grade.

Adding detailing instructions in Photoshop as to where to put pla plates, details, panel lines and exposed internals would be a lot more efficient and effective on my part. Will make sure to tell you once I have edited this post and have added the detailing instructions.

Thanks for dropping by! Til next update guys! :)
