RE: What are you working on? - Trace-02 - 01-11-2010
Updating my WIP of the Noblesse Oblige. :3 but before anything else...

Pet the cute robot doggie. XD
*cough* onto the WIP:

Gold Parts painted...

Black parts painted with Meta Black night (Thanks to DT for that can of paint XD )

Partial assembly and prepping for the detailing. I'm planning to go with semi-gold panels instead of the standard black/gray. ^3^

Main AC detailing done. :3

Close up of the head and the core... Was kind of a pain to detail the really small bits by hand. some details were less than a millimeter in size.... >__<

Back view.

LOL Details. Some parts like the ankle covers had to be masked before the gold paint was applied.

Size comparison with the Nineball. The paint really does make this Hogire AC look good, but I still kinda prefer the older AC designs. :3

Masking and painting the back weapons. Will post more after all the weapons are painted and detailed. ^__^v
RE: What are you working on? - Fox - 01-11-2010
Loving the progress on this unit and the oh-so-gorgeous combination of white/black/gold.
Hope to see this with the panel lines soon.
RE: What are you working on? - Immaterial - 01-11-2010
Fox!
It has gold panel lines~ XD
Snooopy~
@nineball
That was fast. O_____O
and its not red even. XD
RE: What are you working on? - Fox - 01-11-2010
The panel lines themselves are gold?!?!?!
Now i would definitely call that a tough kit to build in this regard. Sweet!
RE: What are you working on? - J.E_Magog - 01-11-2010
Makapangyarihan ang meaning pang naging gold na ang panel lines mo.
RE: What are you working on? - NiX - 01-11-2010
Oh man that's really sexy. Mech porn! Great job, Trace.
RE: What are you working on? - Trace-02 - 01-12-2010
Wai~! Thanks everyone. The gold panel lines are kinda easy to do. I think it's because of the spraypaint I used that the panels turned GOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLD-uh.
That, or it was because of an unfortunate smelting accident.... *Cue Goldmember*
RE: What are you working on? - Trace-02 - 01-20-2010
Update time~!
*sigh* Masking is a total pain, but at least the outcome is pretty good. All it needs now is a little detail
![[Image: Noblesse17.jpg]](http://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z193/Trace-02/Mykits/Noblesse17.jpg)
Finished Back weapons!

Uguu... My poor fingers. The entire kit is almost done. just one more weapon to paint and detail. :3
RE: What are you working on? - Lord_Leperman - 01-20-2010
Good grief! That's a whole lot of mini details painted! D: Excellent work on that kit.
RE: What are you working on? - Fox - 01-20-2010
Cannons! Six lovely cannons! A! A! A! A!

I LOL
Myuu Lord_Leperdude, I actually prefer the small detailwork compared to actually painting the darn gold onto the kit. <:3 ima take close-up pics of it so you'll know what I mean. ^__^
Noblesse Oblige is finally finished!

Now, It's back to the old-school ACs for me!
RE: What are you working on? - Serene - 01-21-2010
ASTEEG~!!! Now those are Dual Tri-cannons!
RE: What are you working on? - Trace-02 - 01-21-2010
Yup! They sure are! Unfortunately, because these things are a nightmare to paint using this color scheme, I don't think I'll want to go through Noblesse Oblige anytime soon.
RE: What are you working on? - isburai - 01-22-2010
sir trace, are you using tamiya masking tape?
RE: What are you working on? - Trace-02 - 01-22-2010
Uhhh... isaburai, just "Trace" is fine.
...and no, I'm kinda trying to save some money so I just used the regular masking tape you can buy from National Bookstore. The brand I'm using is "Armak".
Note: The lighter the type of pylox brand spraypaint you use, the easier it is for masking tape to ruin.
