Plamo's WOOB:3 Zaku III WIP

This is my latest work. It is done for Plamo's WOOB:3, since they have kindly adjusted the deadline and the no. of kits acceptable.

Here's a the box art of the kit, it is the Mass Produced Zaku 3 from Double Zeta Gundam Series.

This is how it looks like originally. Looks pretty ugly in my opinion.


I didn't like the original gun that came with the kit. I've bought additional weapon set from kotobukiya. It consists of a machine gun/rifle and a large axe which is similar to the zaku's Heat Hawk.


Here I've scrapped out the plastic beside to make a wider "hole" so that it would improve the poseablilty of the kit.


Next I've cut away excess plastic from the thighs so that the legs can open wider.

After modification:

The side skirts were also modified to allow the legs to open so wide:



The Front skirts were also lengthen:


Some Epoxy putty was applied to the head and sanded down to make the front of the head sharper:


So far this is wad the kit looks like:


The pose that it will probably be in after at the end of everything:
