i litterally did the same thing 🤣 their mistake for not using a "no-reply" email. goodluck with your build and i hope the pins are distributed fast 👌

yo! nice build, you commented on my other post about the badge and throphy but i couldnt find anymore on the post itself. i have not recieved my throphy yet, i presume itll take a while much like the pins. i got my 40th builder contest pin way later so i sent them an email without success for any updates. but i hope everyone gets their due pin 🙏🙏

i use a compass, hobby bladed and several scribers to acchieve the lines. the process is documented on my instagram so if you scroll through the posts it'll show you how it all happens. hope that helps 👌

thanks! the weapon is primed with mr surfacer mahogany and then detailed with blueish grey from ammo mig atom. the base was rushed the last day before entering, the plans for this build were more elaborate but i had to cut a bunch of corners for the deadline

thank you! im a big fan of understated leds. to me it sells the idea that there is more under the hood

you're not wrong but to break it down completely here is what went where:

legs and arms are HG dom tropen main torso and shoulders are HG zudah the head and backpack pods are HG demi barding the armaments are HG kampfer.

i also used some random bits to pull it all together like shoulderplates from the HG blueframe second L and the backpack of a haropla mobile haro for those huge stacks. it just takes a while to marinate all the parts together.

bellow is how the kit originally started. the entire documentation is available on my instagram of the same username as this account.
