Armored Trooper Strikedog (Votoms 1/24 Soft Vinyl)

[YOULI]

Again thought it was posted...

Got several Votoms kits, a lot in plastic but some in Soft Vinyl. It's bigger and in a way easier to build this kind of garage kit, when you know how to do it, that is...

The Strikedog is one kit I founded in a model kit exhibition. Cheap and obviously a bootleg, but with this kind of kit you don't have to worry about the way you're doing it. All in all it was fun, and easy to do it.

Here is the result...



No decals available, my regular model kit were not at hand so I managed painting it BY HAND (the white signs).
You have to know that in the Votoms world the alphabet is not quite the same than ours... There was no way to use WARNING or NO STEP signs there.

It ended up just right but I do like better the look of my Diving beetle (same scale, same anime).

Beautiful work on all these mechs....
You truly accomplished the "Made of Metal" look.
;D ;D ;D ;D

Thanks

I think I will use aluminum foil (in stickers form) to do better with the big claw, do the same thing with some pipes, add some scratches, dent and stuff...

As soon as I found where on earth it has been stocked
