Castile's Models! Danboard Mini "Homura Akemi" custom

Unread post by Castile »

So my other hobby besides wow ofcourse is building models - mostly Gundam but this time I did a Zoid! I wanted to make a wow mount so went with one of my fav dino's Spawn of Horridon. The seat is abit too arts n craft than I intended but I liked the overall zoid. The base kit is the Red Horn Zoid 1/75 scale and the seat I handmade with plaplate and putty (with felt and hobbyfill for the cushion). The base is perplex and card. I was going to sketch Horridon myself but found this one on google (not sure of the artist but credit to them) and just photoshop adjusted it as time was a factor...this may have been finished 2am the night before competition :lol: Hope you guys like him :D

Re: Castile's Models! Wing Zero [Frozen Teardrop] GBWC entry

Hi all thought i'd post my model for this years GBWC Australia - Hi Res Wing Zero [frozen teardrop] ver.

My colour scheme is based on the light novel version of the wing zero (if you watched Gundam Wing as a kid you might recognise it). There's only one official picture of it so was abit of a challenge but im super happy with it. Can't wait for the shenanigans in Sydney!

Thanks dude :) Both shades are three layers of paint - jet black, purple or lilac and then clear purple. the lilac is the darker shade believe it or not! It looks super nice there under the bright photography lights.

Re: Castile's Models! Sakura Wars x MaK

Hi all - I did this Sakura Wars x Maschinen Krieger crossover for an online contest on the Paint on Plastic facebook group. Most people do these models with a grimey weathered look so I went the total opposite haha!! Most people on the page got a kick out of it :) If you're familiar with the anime the mechs called "Kobu" are steam/psychic powered so I added the extra rivets and steam bells to the top. It was a very challenging model in terms of just putting it together but I'm happy with the result.

Danboard Mini "Homura Akemi" custom

I did this little cardboard robot (that's what Danboard san is apparently!) as a fun quick custom. the kit itself is very plain so I went abit creative with it to make my magical girl 'custom' but she was very fun and cute to do!
