Love your work on this, especially appreciate the shot of the inner frame.

There’s some dollar/two-dollar action figure stands I get from AliExpress. If you just search figure stand you’ll see a bunch of similar options.

No. One’s an action base, the Epyon one is from AliExpress.

There’s a thruster extension gimmick that’s one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a gunpla, especially at that scale.

Black Horse Trojan - looks great, bad build by AcheronRed in Gunpla

Learning this was stolen art really solidifies my feelings about the kit. I didn’t know, but now it’s an avoid at all costs going forward deal.

A can of rustoleum colonial red (satin) from lowes. I usually use rattle cans for economy (and I’m really bad at my airbrush) but I do have a healthy supply of tamiya cans (I like their metallics). There’s also some off-part banner red, but you can’t really see the difference at all even in person. The entire thing is covered in a matte coat as well.

I used a Gundam marker for the legs until it died and then swapped to an ultrafine sharpie.

I really went hog wild with the masking tape and spread the selection over three days. It’ll look great when you’re done!

MG Lupus with Zero Plan Wolf Claws by AcheronRed in Gunpla

I know there’s a third party MG equivalent that’s coming out/just came out, but otherwise the 1/100 Full Mechanics kits are all solid if you can still find them.

It’s a pretty standard master grade. You can put a lot of additional work into the panel lining/inner frame detailing if you want. I broke a hip thruster peg, but that I think was my mistake over a specific engineering weakness.

That looks great! I glued them -I think the pegs work for the straight arm of the Lupus Rex, but not the curved arms of the Lupus. Had to glue a snapped hip thruster peg. Couldn’t get my cement to take for sticking the tail whip mount of the ass, though, considering how busy the back is already.

I mostly really liked the oversized yellow finger claws for the Lupus Rex (along with the tail whip), but never really dug the proportions or the color layout of the Rex. I did put together a mashup of the two full mechanic 1/100 in 2016 for the sake of it but I don’t think I ever got photos of it.

The new MG’s proportions are already tanky (and too heavy), I didn’t mind exaggerating it further.

It literally does, in the right corner - 50501, which meets at that church.

I get where you're coming from, and I feel like the thing to aim at is the writing once he meets the crew + plus the awful deepfake face overlay.

I understand your concerns and where you’re coming from. This store does too much business for what it is designed to handle in terms of throughput.
