Wing Gundams: 1

Testing out a scene based on existing artwork to see how close we might be able to get to the illustration, in a ver-KA way.

Wing Update: Color Holdover

I went with the GFF Metal paint scheme for this update, but the textures can be swapped out to the original KA colors if this wears on me. Will finish up the cannon and pull that in.

Wing Update: 4

Scratching out some detail in the lower legs and arms and dividing up the frame. Torn between going for what some of the "extreme" kit delivers and the fix figuration metal version, so just getting some ideas from all of them, but probably less of the extreme style.

Wing Update: 3

Moving around the old mesh, updating things here and there and realizing how far I skipped around all those years ago in terms of detail.

Wing Update: 2

Got a lot of head detail in and will start moving toward the body and arms next, probably doing a lot of digging and replacement.

Wing Update: Head

It's been more than a decade since starting the wing gundam mesh, but I figure a refresh would be in order considering the other units were more recently done. Starting with the head parts to see where I can break them down and give a bit more detail than was previously there.

Wing Normal

Running into old meshes is great fun! Whenever the new EW Wing Zero comes to master grade, I may snap that up and use it to fix this guy.

Wing Gundam KA Stance

Forgot to mention that yesterday I put this out. Basically similar to the box art on the Master Grade only without the cannon and shield (and no cut wings).

Gundam Wing: DONE!!

Barring a few missing bump maps, this thing is pretty close to being as done as it's going to get.. from me anyway. YAY!! SOOOOOO... now it's time to break out the wings from the WING ZERO unit and get to work on fabricating the upgrade. :D

Gundam Wing: Basic Color

..And I mean basic. I've just gotten back to this. Now it's not so "naked" :). I'll work on it some more tomorrow.

Gundam Wing: Energy Pack

This marks the 95% point on modelling this Gundam. I'm actually surprised I got this far within the span of a month. I expected to be done at the end of November. I guess these last few weeks of the month will be for gettin the wings on the Wing Zero going. Anyway, I'm gonna take a day off of this thing and chill out for a bit.

Gundam Wing: Most of It

And now most of what it looks like. Still have some things to kick out of it, but I'm happy with it so far... :)

Gundam Wing: Gun

YAY! The rifle is here...well, most of it.

Gundam Wing: Shield 2

Another shot of the shield. I'll probably stop making polys for it right here since the polygon count seems to be exploding on me. The rest of the detail will likely be through bump maps. Oh well.

Gundam Wing: Shield 1

Found time to finally work on the shield.

Gundam Wing: Wings

Getting the wings in there. They don't look like much without color though. On to the shield!

Gundam Wing: Leg - Underframe

True enough ;) The legs weren't correctly sized to scale with the rest of the model. Fixed it up a but and started on the frame underneath.

Gundam Wing: Leg 80%

The outside armor for the legs is complete, now I'm trying to construct the inner frame. The Arms don't seem to have any frame (according to this MG model I'm using for reference). I might use the inner frame from the MG Freedom or Strike MG for the arm to construct the Wing arm frame.

Gundam Wing: Leg 2

Gundam Wing: Foot 1

Yay the foot. I'm just getting sleepy, that's why I keep posting this stuff.
