Pimp my Zaku

[Ophiuchus]

Okay, I recently got a resin kit of this - http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/destiny-msv/zgmf-x999a.htm

Now, that is a HORRID color scheme. However, I can't think one up myself...
What I want you guys to do is use your graphics programs to make a NEW color scheme for that unit. If I likes what I see, i'll paint it that color, and you get to name the pilot. surprised

Failing that, i'm going to paint it PINK. So someone come up with a color scheme!

If you're making it pink, make it a Meer Campbell custom xd j/k

This is the reason i'm painting it pink.

Girlfriend. Commands it be pink. So I said "if no one makes up a decen scheme in two weeks, i'll paint it pink."

why not make it an original green, like most Zaku?  

[Ophiuchus]

Because I want custom colors, not fodder colors.  

[Vivio1412]

hmmm, well, let's think....
I am certainly not seeing a pink Zaku, like the Performer Zaku
Straight Blue makes it look like a Gouf....
The original Yellow and Black scheme looks like a bee....
green is fother color....

hmmmm.......
why not get a paint program, and just start coloring?
I mean, sure, GF overrides all decision
But at least do some paint programing before it becomes all pink...
wait, what happened to the providence zaku?

I'm a modeller. You should know NO modeller only works on ONE thing at a time! We have to work on multiple projects at once.

I work stuff one thing at a time...
I mean, occasionally, I open another one set

But most of the time, it's one project (although I only buy one anyway...)
Which reminds me....
I need to buy the Murasame Mass Production type....
I hate the Andrew Bartfields ********, why does he like yellow...

Anyway, how is that kit coming along, I can't access the thread, due to some issue with Gaia  

[Ophiuchus]

No major updates, due to the lack of finding plasticard in my area. mad Damn them.
If I had the plasticard, i'd be able to get one done.
At any rate, it's all that needs to be done now. Plasticard details. All the puttywork is done. I'll get some pictures when i'm back home. (Currently at girlfriends)

I rather like the Kaite Madigan colours with the cross across the mobile suit. Black w/ White highlights (white bottoms on the feet especially) would look really cool I think.

EDIT: A rugged earth-tone look might also look good. Maybe try a similar look to desert Dom/Zaku of MSV.
