El Mamerro Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 I wanna get into kitbashing pretty bad. Make some ill robot shit. Ko SprueOne, what's some good advice on getting started? This is the kind of stuff I used to draw, the kind of stuff I'd like to build. Type of models to look for, putty, paint, etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ko SprueOne Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Make some ill robot shit - kitmash Wow, fantastic concept design drawing! Details, man. Looks like, start with Gundam kits. But it depends on what scale you intend to flesh these out to. Most of the Star Wars models were various military model parts of various scales kitmashed. But for the droids, there was mostly scratch building and thermal forming. In your drawing, I'm seeing some Gundam, Ma.K., and electrical components parts in there somehow. I got boxes of extra DC electrical stuff. There's also everyday stuff from consumer product containers that are normally thrown away. Here's a couple links I have bookmarked of other people's work: Maschinen Krieger Ma.K. Jukabala Junkyard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

underøath.army Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 those models are fucking tits. mad props. how do you make all the graff on the buildings look so real? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ko SprueOne Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 cool, man, thanks. I use a small brush and thin the paint to look like spray paint sprayed back and forth quickly like in a fill. Never use white or black but instead light grays and dark grays so that in scale it's more acceptable. Then go back with the appropriate paint solvent and touch up some edges to look like over spray and fades. Macro pics of these will reveal this. These pics from further away look better. lol Also, a few buffed square spots here and there add realism. BOXCUTTERS, you mean across the brick wall? I have some pictures of some famous rollers I'd like to duplicate in scale later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Mamerro Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Great stuff. This shit still has me mad interested. But I gotta get back into drawing before I even delve into stuff like this. Currently redesigning Mazinger Z as a get-back-into-the-game project. It's really, really fucking hard, cause Mazinger was a fairly stupid looking robot (awesome nonetheless).

Ko SprueOne Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Re: Mazinger Z you're a designer on this project? or are you customizeing a model kit of it? if toy and anime robot design is you job, then focus on that, man. make lots of money, then retire. Then you can make models on a tropical beach with your toes in warm sand, drinking a Singha. oh that would be the life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~>MooseKnuckle<~ Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 anyone collect trains? i used to - but kind of got out of it when i went to college. now that im older i want to get back into it. gonna start buing little by little and eventually get my layout hooked up. trying to decide between O and HO. you can fit more HO in a given space, but you can do pieces on O cars much easier, and when i really get nerded out im gonna weather the pieces and everything. my plan is to create a model of the place where i bench freights.

Ko SprueOne Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 I would suggest HO, for the reasons you already stated. Your idea of a layout of your own yard is choice. Do it. There is another thread regarding model trains here, check it out. Most of those are HO. Then check out Mellow Mike's HO trains here.
