Gundam Exia Build WIP

[Kryios90]

Ok so i figured I'd start a new build and decided on a gundam build just to try something new. I started a week or two ago on getting the files and print and so on. finally finished it today and figured I'd post some pictures.

Enjoy!

once folded it ended up in like 6 pieces so i tapes them together for now. I'll fiberglass them together during that step

I think i got the scaling right

Hope you guys like! I'll post more as I continue to work on it.

(suductivley) Exiaaaaaaa.......I AM GUNDAM! Good luck bro. one might think double O would be easier. how are you gonna pull off the glass chest?

 

[Kryios90]

right now I'm thinking about using clear plastic sheeting for the glass parts on the helmet, chest, elbows and knees. We'll see how that works.

How well is the vision out of the helmet?

Nice start so far

Looking great.

right now the visibility is almost zero but thats only because I haven't cut away the eyes yet. I plan to use plastic eyes with lights so visibility will hope fully be a lot better when I'm done.

Sorry I haven't posted any new pics yet. I finally got my order of resin and fiberglass so i can start hardening everything soon. New pictures are coming within the next few days I promise!

So last night I finally got around the putting resin on half of the parts. They came out great but I do need to find a better way to lay the parts down to dry, pulling aluminum foil off the two bigger pieces was a pain.

next i have to finish the rest of the parts and then figure out how and where I need to cut opening to fiberglass the pieces. should be a fun learning experience!

Hello, This is an awesome build that you were doing and I was thinking about pursing it myself but I can't find any of the files to the links that you sent up. Is there another place where I could find it?

I just tried the links from a couple posts up. They seem to still work. Not sure if the downloads still work. This is a very old project however, best of luck with it.

Yea I checked the links from media fire, the links work but the files aren't there, do you have another source or the files on hand?
