Delta Plus and Unicorn 2

Just poopin around again. Watched the final episode of 00 today. It ended better than I thought and I enjoyed the 0 Gundam vs Exia scene. Seems a shame that these episodes are so short.

Sinanju VS Unicorn 1

One for my wife who is valiantly fighting the good fight at her new job! Good luck!! Wish this turned out better. Heck I wonder if I ever consider these sort of things "finished".

GMIII: Conversion 6

Working on a few things at the same time. Hyaku Shiki textures are coming along, but not as nicely as I had hoped. In between I managed some basic GMIII surfaces. Have to tatter it up a little more.

GMIII: Conversion 5

A freak blizzard in Aomori stopped electricity on Friday night. Cold as the dickens. Didn't resume till just this morning. Shortened and elongated the head ala Sentinel. Worked on the side missiles again and redid the leg boosters a bit. It should be close to acceptable...

edit: the top camera on the head looks a little punched in. I'll pull it out a bit.

GMIII: Conversion 4

Probably not spot on. It's not easy to tell exactly which GMIII to go on. I think the rear section of the pod is a little to large and I still have to get to the leg boosters which the shield is colliding with. But I've managed to get most of the launchers attached to the waist and get a generally acceptable set of pods on the shoulder armor. I also raised the rear skirt a little so that it wouldn't sit so low, but again the [BATTLE AT THE PORT OF DAKAR] scene seems to implicate slightly different parts for the rear waist, more akin to the GM kai...
Anyway a little extra detail here and there and somewhat of a redo for the leg boosters and that should do'er.

GM III: Conversion 3

The missle pods on the shoulders are coming along. I have to assume that the GMIII from the Unicorn series is similar enough to the Nouvel GMIII from the Sentinel series, meaning the pod contains about 4 missiles. Working off of this notion. The pod is a little elongated at the moment.

GM III: Conversion 2

Replaced the GM Kai's arms with slightly altered Gundam MKII arms, then redid the rear skirt armor. The Gundam ver KA's shanks came in handy for the shins of the GMIII and I redid some of the calf area a wee bit while also cutting into the Achilles area of the armor to bring out some of the machine parts inside. I went a little high on the knee armor assembly so I'll lower it. Though still working on the lower legs, meaning the MKII thrusters on the outer calves are just placeholders (I promise). I'm still thinking about the shoulder pods (which I will add). Apparently, as shown in Katoki's poster [THE BATTLE AT THE PORT OF DAKAR] 2 GM's are depicted without the pod equipment on the shoulders -- though everything else seems similar. I have to guess that the pod armament is optional...

GM III: Conversion 1

I feel like I'm on a Unicorn kick. Actually, I thought that getting a few more suits from that era would be good for background purposes so why not start with an "easy to convert" grunt suit.
Working on the upper body for now. So far the head and front skirt are redone with some help from the GM Quel while the backpack and shoulder armor are from the MKII (albeit slightly modified) while the rest of the body is basically the GM Kai. The shield is the Gundam KA version, with the cruciform that I forgot to model for it. Still going on the upper parts as they're obviously not done...
