Guppy Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Finally finished painting and weathering my Yamato scopedog. After seeing Tim Brisko's one with the red shoulder I wanted to do the same. I chose a dark dull red for mine to make it realistic - you don't want a big bright clown nose on your shoulder to draw attention! Pulling the toy apart is really simple, except for the legs which have springs and quite a few screws. Airbrushing it took no time at all; the dry brushing took me a week. Well, I'd get bored and give up after an hour or two a night. I probably weathered it a bit much, but when you start it's hard to stop!

Guppy Posted September 19, 2005 Author Share Posted September 19, 2005 Wow indeed great work, i am not to familiar with this series but i know what i like a excellent custom. by the way do you have a 1/48 Macross Yamato customs?chris 329683[/snapback] thanks! I've customised 2 1/60's and 3 1/55's and even a Toynami Master Piece, but not a 1/48.. I can't afford to buy a spare one to custom! My next project (been meaning to do this for a year now) is to customise a Yamato 11b into a 11c paint scheme. I got some line art from Graham and will pick one of 'em.

wolfx Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Not sure if you know cause i don't see it in the forums, but Yamato's releasing some weapon packs for the Scopedog. Would look good with the custom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trueblueeyes Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 Nice job, it looks great. Are you planning on getting the Melquiya 'dog? I have mine preordered along with the accesory packs. Now I just need to find a place to display them. I didn't realize just how big the scopedog was until I got mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's cheaper for you I saw that hlj.com have the Melquiyas on sale at the moment. here's what it looked like in pieces: Edited September 21, 2005 by Guppy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
