Back to Gunpla-ing after the review on MS Gundam Seed Destiny Heroines 3 gashapon set with the assembly of a Master Grade kit this time: MG Gelgoog Ver. 2.0. ^^
It has been two months since I last visited it, and that was also the last time I worked on a Master Grade kit. ^^; I remember this blog was all about MGs during these two months last year, apparently that didn't turn into a trend for this year. ^^;
Back on topic, since Gelgoog Ver. 2.0 is very much just a recolored Char's Gelgoog Ver. 2.0, I'll be brief on the details during the assembly. ^^
Inner frame parts of the right arm.
Painted hydraulic pipes of the upper arm and elbow.
Major components of the right arm.
Done for the right arm.
A complete 180-degree bend for the elbow.
The painted elbow hydraulic pipe can be seen clearly when the elbow is fully bent.
Inner frame parts of the left arm.
The screw on the left palm.
Major components of the left arm.
Done for the left arm.
Overall articulation of the left arm.
The elbow hydraulic pipes.
Done for both arms. ^^
Inner frame parts of the shoulder armors.
Done for the shoulder armors.
The ease of assembly doesn't do any justice to the tedious paint work and panel lining done on all the parts. ^^;
Inner frame parts of the feet.
Parts of the ankle joints.
The feet and the ankle joints.
Done for the feet.
Fixed and movable hydraulic pipes as well as the thrusters on the soles that were painted in Part 2.
The two halves of the foot are separately movable.
The painted tiny pipes at the base of the main thruster can be seen when the foot is bent. ^^
Movement of the ankle and heel hydraulic pipes when the ankle joints are turned.
Inner frame parts of the right leg.
A set of large hydraulic pipe to connect between the thigh and knee joint.
A small part inside the rear knee joint cover that is linked to the knee joint itself gives the component a linked movement action when it's bent.
When the knee is bent backward, the cover will slide downward.
The largest hydraulic pipe (for the thigh) is concealed and locked in place by the cover.
Major components of the right leg's inner frame.
Done for the right leg's inner frame, with the outer frame layer yet to be attached to it.
With the outer frame layer attached.
Articulation design of the leg.
Inner frame parts of the left leg.
The large hydraulic pipe for the thigh and knee joint.
Major components of the left leg's inner frame.
Done for the left leg.
The same articulation as the right leg.
Both legs are now done.
An overview of both legs' articulation.
Elaborate details of the tri-thruster on the calf and hydraulic pipes of the joints are very nice too look at, even before the model is completed. ^^
Will move on to the upper body's assembly next. ^^
