GN Sword X!! WIP 2

and, for the real type~

have i mentioned that i'm a fast worker? ^^

being quite lively today, i started working on X early in the morning..

managed to cut out the templates before i took my bath ^^

went to a store and bought super glue and attached them all....now i got this!!

comparison with the prototype..it is longer, slimmer, slender and more mecha-looking

after some rounds of sanding, here's what i got
as the building goes, i had to add more plates to increase the strength of the bonds between the parts

quite hard to put on the arm at first..but after the lower piece came apart and is re-glued, putting it to the arm is easier than the prototype version ^^ no need to remove the palm, lol

the thickness of the blade now....sharp and thin ^^

Oh my......*speechless*

will increase the thickness of some parts...note that i'd already removed OO from its lighting system ^^

now i'm going to a store to get some putty and something for the RaiXer Sword

GN Sword X!! WIP 1

GN Sword X?

due to the prOOtest held before, i had to find a solution to stop the protest, after spending some time at the "dark side", i came to a solution!!

it is::: GN Sword X!! (thanks to Moemoekyun for the idea and the name!)

first and foremost..
the design..

a random sketch on the weapon...i just only draw the basic design and will add more details once the main frame is finished (those zig-zag lines is due i was transferring the design to a mounting board)
as you can see, this weapon is not a folding type but i will consider adding firepower when the main frame is complete ^^

without hesitating, i took some mounting board and cut out the templates and attached them together....there, i got the prototype for the weapon!!

test fit on the arm...it is held quite good due to the weapon being locked onto the arm at 3 points : the palm. lower arm, upper arm

with this, i can see the end of the demOOnstration ^^

however, for the real type, i had to use a material to replace pla-plates (still cannot get a grip on these T_T)

Taaddda!!! kadfon/phone card!! why i choose to use this? i saw at this blog where neck joint extension is made using credit card to replace pla-plates!!
Derringer also got me impressed when he used talc powder and superglue to remove seamlines ^^

latest progress....i'd cut the main blade and the side cores for the blade..it is longer and thinner compared to the prototype ^^....will add the details next!!

and yes, i made a video (more lame than Tsuki's video!!) demonstrating on how the sword is attached to the arm ^^
enjoy!!(imagine rrobbert184 doing the talking^^ LoL)



LoL, low quality ^^

HTZ-003 StrikEagle

A Zoids custom....After 2 years....

ZD presents...

HTZ-003 StrikEagle

Prototype for Advanced A.I system, Advanced Stealth Camouflage system, EXtreme rAdar systeM (EXAM)

Custom Zoids for Team Noir

Battle Story

Using the data from Buster Eagle, NightWise, Megaleon, and Storm Sworder…Helix Tech Corps built this Zoids, StrikEagle(SE) on purpose to test the Advanced A.I and Stealth Camouflage system.This Zoids is sent to the Team Noir’s moving base, the Noir Crayser so that the systems of SE could develop….during this period, Team Noir just ended a battle against the Dark Army which in this battle, Blade Liger Noir was destroyed when it tries to block a beam from Dark Evosaurer’s C4PC(Charged, Compressed, Condensed, Concentrated) which was meant for Akatsuki Liger…

When SE first arrived at Noir Crayser, it began to show emotions as it expressed sadness when it saw the wreckage of Blade Liger Noir…it then chose Diect Blade (BLN pilot) as its pilot..Diect Blade also nicknamed it ‘Silver Beak’…SE began to be able to communicate by making text appears on its dashboard….using its Advanced Stealth Camouflage, it can change its color according to the surroundings….however, instead going on Noir Color Scheme (black and gold), it chose to stay on its original color but during battle, it will go on the Noir scheme…Another thing is that SE showed no interest towards Team Noir’s insignia but it seems to really liked the insignia of Helix Tech…

Weird enough, SE is found to get along with DimetroPtera Noir and together, they made the best AWACs and Recon team with SE’s EXtreme rAdar systeM (EXAM)…Although it is not a Fuzor-type Zoids, but in a battle, it took the Noir Cannon which is used by LeoStriker Noir (knocked off by a Dark Dispelow) by its claws and managed to shoot some Dark Zoids…

With the Adv.A.I, it could operate itself without a pilot….when Diect Blade acquired his new Zoids, Liger Black Noir (with zeNith OblIteRator C.A.S), SE then chose Leon Cravern as its new pilot until the end of the Dark Army Obliteration Campaign…….

enough for the story...lets go for the main thing..StrikEagle is made using a HG Enact as its main frame and other parts are scratch-built using cardboards and some my brother mini toys....

actually, I wanted to 'revive' my trashed Enact to a certain gunpla Custom....I did managed to make it looks like Regnant though...but I went blank and had to give up on my earlier idea.......with ZP Custom Contest ongoing..i think that maybe I should make this Enact into an animal (or somethng like that^^)

here you got there.....Zoids Custom ver ZD...HTZ-003 StrikEagle!!

head close-up

some aerial claw-attack pose

looking on something, SE?

if you read the battle story, notice that I'd mentioned that SE used the Noir Cannon..so this is how it use the cannon ^^

Hiahh!!Eagle KICK!!!!

Weaponry for SE are Prime 100mm Dart Launcher, 2X NoirPalm 6-tube Missile pods, Advanced Strike Laser Claw..

head-up shot and armaments displays...

the Helix Tech insignia on the hip section (tilted H and T)

actually, only Enact's body, arms and feet is used so there are a pile of leftovers of Enact (might be useful for my next custom)..
for my future Zoids Customs, some names are told in the battle story above that are still unveiled which is :-
DimetroPtera Noir (just some simple recoloring)
Noir Crayser Crayfish type (this one will be HUGE!!!imagine how to make a Zoids that serve as a Moving Base!!!)
Liger Black Noir (this one will be the one that i'll put my best..especially to make the N.O.I.R C.A.S [zeNith OblIeRator Changing Armor System] )

lets just wait then!!!

anyway.....

anybody wants to help me to clean up my work table?

Virtue : I've got a bad feeling..looks like I'm his next target...

ZD : Nah, no way!! I don't think so....I probably gonna have some rest for a while...just go back to your shelf, okay?

Virtue : *Sigh*
