Ideas revolving around mono-eyes....

So, I've been having ideas lately. Thinking a few kits ahead at the moment, I'd like to work on a MG mono-eye'd suit. These are my over all ideas.

MG Gyan: The crusader;
                                      I want to make the MG gyan as either a medieval knight or a crusader. I'm considering using cloth as a robe and maybe some kind of templar theme if I pick crusader. I'll put a motif on the shield, but the body may need quite a few mods. The shoulders will need more pauldron like design. Chest will need work too, to give it a look more like a chestplate. This model will more than likely get put in one pose and never moved out of it. EVER. Probably put it in a diorama.

Zaku II; Ver. O.S.
                            A plan for a customised zaku II high mobility type, based off either Johnny Rayden or Shin Matsunaga custom units. There'll be a fair few mods in this, with an emphasis on asymmetry. I'll put the plan up here in detail some day, just to have a record of it. it'll still be a Zaku II, clearly, but it'll be customised a quite a bit.

Z'Gok; weathered and diorama
                        I'm a fan of the Z'Gok design. Love it to bits. For this, I'd like to just paint it in standard colours and make a nice diorama of it. I think it could look awesome. This would have some weathering on it to look like it's been in service for a long time.

Acguy; Marine Camouflage
                                           I'd like to do something to make this look like it's made for hunting submarines, ships and other underwater MSs. I'd like to do a mottled blue and grey colour scheme. DC23's Acguy is similar to what I'd like to achieve with this kit. I'd like to try remove panels like he did, so this idea will probably be me copying DC. Oh well, not a bad person to copy at all.

Rick Dom; Schnee Weiss
                                       The most difficult idea of all and one which I'll probably save for when my skills are far more advanced. It's the Rick Dom piloted by Haman Karn in Char's Deleted Affair; the Schnee Weiss.
I want to do it with the funnel pack equipped, but due to the high difficulty mods, I think I'll leave this for the future, but it's nice to show that I've considered doing it at some point. I'd love to be able come back and do it justice.

I'm leaning towards either the Gyan, the Acguy or the Zaku II for this project and it'll definitely be long haul project.... This feels wrong... a post without pics? Hmmm, I'll have less of that! Shazzam! Hiroko Sato to the rescue!



Anyway, til next time.
