RX-0 Unicorn Gundam 02 Banshee (Novel version)

Like an angel falling from the sky, the appearance of Banshee at the beginning of UC Gundam still considered to be one of the first most unforgivable scene in this serie.

In the OVA design, with its newly design weapons Armed Armor VN mounted on its left hand and Armed Armor BS on its right, the image of Banshee is more beast-like, menacing, and less elegant comparing to its novel counterpart.

Having said that, the motive of my building the novel version of banshee was not because I didn't like the OVA design - I just bought one extra MG Unicorn Gundam to make the Banshee way before Bandai announced its' production of the OVA UC Gundam = =

Ingredient A: 1x MG Unicorn Gundam

Ingredient B: 1 x Banshee's Antenna Mod Part

+ a hell of paint jobs!

Done!

Equipped with beam gatling gun and shield

Shin Kage Musha Gundam Exia (真.影武者頑駄無Exia)

One day I realized I had a whole lot of spare parts of MG Musha Gundam(真武者頑駄無) and 1/100 Exia gundam for some random Gunpla modding project and wanted to make some good uses of them. 

This product is actually inspired by two works:

1. Ebinawa Kanetake Sensei's original idea of creating Avalanche Gundam Exia - an Exia equipped with traditional japanese musha-like armors 

2. An old-time BB-senshi character called Nomanu appeared with its newest form in Musha Retsuden(武者烈伝). In the story, Nomanu is the 影武者 (kage musha = political decoy) of 武者頑駄無 with great agility, which fits pretty well with the image of Exia.

Parts dissembled and categorised by the color to be painted

Long and painful painting procedures

Done painting!

The head armament(e.g. lion) and the shooting
star are from BB-279 Onmitsu Nomaru

So here it is, with the final product.

1/100 O-Raiser Full Armaments Type Part 1

Inspired by PG O-Raiser's full armament type, I tried so hard to find the replacement of those firearms. And Voila! I found this box in a local Model store at a price of 100HKD, and it seems to be a perfect match with my 1/100 O-Raiser.

After some intensive paintings, here comes the finished product:

AMM-1 GN Missile

RMS-1 GN Reactor Bomb

UUM-7 Micro GN Missile Pod

Finally, some pictures taken with both O-Raiser and its equipment.

The next step will be figuring a way to mount the equipment which at the same time allows to dismount it at later time without breaking the pieces.. I am thinking of using some pieces of magnet, any other suggestions?

GN-0000GNHW7S 00 Gundam + GN sword 3 Inspection

Note that this is not a MG, it is a garage kit incorporated with the 1/100 00 Gundam frame.

This special kind of 00's profile really exists and takes a role in 00V senki, I will add more information about this mecha in future update XD

Edited on Aug 11, 2011:

Finally finished the buster sword II, but it is too heavy that 00 cannot stand with it mounted on the shoulder. = ="

Red & Blue

Completed my MG Astray Red Frame...and added the clear bonus parts as well :)

Zeon Base

Found a new base for my Shinanju :D

Red Frame - In prog shots

Next build!

Here's a hint :P

And it's not WZC :P

Shinanju Completed!

This model took me so damn long. I think I painted it last summer, then it sat for a loooooooong time...and I finally started building it in December. Just finished it recently. Definitely the biggest, heaviest, most difficult model I've built up to date :P There are still a few things I need to repaint but it's done for now! Enjoy!

Told you this guy's huge :P

Random shot with MG & HG Destiny and MG Freedom...and a tofu :P

Shinanju! Cont'd.

 

A couple progress shots!

He's a got giant beam weapon hehe

The gun (with the bazooka added) is too heavy for one arm to support :P

The gold lines aren't perfect, but it still looks really damn cool.

Just one leg weighs more than RG Char's Zaku :P

So badass!!!
