Now that these little guys are out, I've been thinking of assembling a fireteam or something similar. Each participant gets designated a number + alias à la Metal Gear. Having our own color scheme would be great too.
I'm open to more suggestions.
Costs around
510 and I think I can cover for a few of those

I already have plans involving a 1/144 HGAC Wing and a few of these guys but I'm cool with doing a group build. How many people do we need before we can get to work?

Spray can nalang siguro ang gagamitin ko dito. Then acrylics for the markings.

I guess 3+ people should be enough to get us started. But before we start on anything we need to come up with basic rules.
-Change the green base color into blue in order to match the forum colors.
-Unit number on the right shoulder. Hand painted in black or white will do.
-Leave a space in the shield so we can put a RR decal in the future.
-Probably don't bother doing mods or battle damage to make this build as simple as possible. Weathering is fine though.
Any more ideas?

BTW I just learned about the 1/144 LEO NPD. I've been thinking if this kit would benefit us more customization-wise.

I'm good with the blue colors and just simple weathering.

I got 3 sheets of clear decals yesterday for the shield insignia. Unfortunately we might have to avoid white colors unless I find myself some white ink for my printer. White decal sheets would be more suited for this but I couldn't find them atm.

What shade of blue are we looking to go for again?

Any shade of blue that's close to the one used in this forum, but try and avoid something that is a bit dark like the MK-II Titans blue otherwise some dark decals won't stand out.
The blue paint in the photo is cobalt blue. I might have to go and return it to the shop since it's a gloss type (prefer matt finish)
Or mayble just use a matt top coat.
btw here's a few cool builds on twitter.
