RE: Armored Core Figures/Model Kits - Fox - 03-14-2019 And after several years, I managed to finish another AC kit. First time to do one that's fully airbrushed too. That was a pretty long hiatus for ACs. If i remember correctly, the last time i even built and painted one was way back in 2012. RE: Armored Core Figures/Model Kits - J.E_Magog - 06-17-2019 Naks naman, grabe ang pagka level-up ng modeling mo . Maganda din ang pagka timpla ng base color netong AC.

Nakakatulong yung meron ka madalas kausap sa kada step ng mga build mo eh. Mabilis na makakuha ng feedback at comments. This AC was actually entered in an online contest a few months ago. Still a long long road to trek. Mine is at the 19:46 mark. RE: Armored Core Figures/Model Kits - J.E_Magog - 07-13-2019 (06-27-2019, 08:28 PM)Fox Wrote: Thanks.

Lots of helpful people pero madaming infighting at minsan double standards. Left the FB group and stopped attending the group meets too. I'm surprised at the amount of AC entries in that contest too!

Just goes to prove that a lot of people worldwide still love Armored Core kits. Hahaha. RE: Armored Core Figures/Model Kits - J.E_Magog - 08-01-2019 Codenamed C.L.A.M. Currently next in line after I finish the 1/144 Leo. Or perhaps finish the quad AC first before proceeding to this one. RE: Armored Core Figures/Model Kits - Fox - 08-10-2019 Looking good there. Scratchbuilt head and small missiles? RE: Armored Core Figures/Model Kits - J.E_Magog - 08-10-2019 Ah no those were the first batch of the 3d printed stuff I did back then. Planning to remake the head unit para mas Kawamori-accurate. Dun sa original artwork ni Kawamori mas prominent yung lens at lower jaw ng head unit.

Dun sa original artwork ni Kawamori mas prominent yung lens at lower jaw ng head unit. speaking of 3d printed stuff, have you printed joint/PC parts? there's this connector setup from the pretty armor kit that i'd really like to replicate. i dunno if the joint/PC parts can be built using plaplate, but i could prolly scratchbuild where they slot into. of course i can just learn how to make custom resin parts. the kit has a spare connector i can use for mold making RE: Armored Core Figures/Model Kits - J.E_Magog - 08-14-2019 (08-13-2019, 12:17 PM)zero_kanipan Wrote:(08-10-2019, 08:15 PM)J.E_Magog Wrote: Ah no those were the first batch of the 3d printed stuff I did back then.

So far my only 3d printed part that interacts with the joint is the head unit. I'm not entirely familiar with the type of material they use for 3d printing these days but I think there should be good ones that can be used for joints. But you gotta consider the cost of printing very small parts in small numbers. Sometimes you're still better off building the joint yourself.

I'm happy how it turned out but I also need to simplify the cad model for ease of assembly. RE: Armored Core Figures/Model Kits - J.E_Magog - 10-06-2019 Primed prototype for Eye 3. Some engraved details often end up not showing up in the final print depending on the material and print resolution being used. RE: Armored Core Figures/Model Kits - Fox - 10-06-2019 Holy crud, the SSR and EYE3 heads are beautiful. |
