Hey everybody!! Nice to meet you!
Well... last sunday I started modeling this Gundam, the RX-78-2, of one of the first series of that anime. Most people may already have seen it somewhere...
The robot is almost ready, but I still need to improve its materials, that aren't really so good...
Well, less talk and a little more images right?
Thanks 4 your time and C&C are always welcome, see ya!

its gundam which is an anime show, it looks pretty nice, a bit off but still pretty good, the eyes are still a bit too wide and the head could use a little work, other then that, keep going

hey guys! first, thanx for the critics... i also think that the eyeres are a little too wide, but thats why I said that the robot is ALMOST ready...
here are a shot from the hoel body without the head, and then one of the images I'm using as a reference... I made the robot more like the anime, but the image here is of a toy... so its not exactly the same...
here r the pictures:

Looks good overall! But for some reason the proportion of the body parts look a little bit off to me. It might explain why I feel that way, I attached a front and back view reference in case it might help you

Dude....niiice....

besides the eyes being big and the "mouth" thingies being sorta small, the rest of it looks great. I like how you changed the design of the lower arms to have more armor. and everything else looks fine to me...just some battle scars and a big beam sniper rifle and a bazooka, that's all....

Very cool! can't wait till yer done! :D

vorlon, THANX YOU A LOT for the reference image!!! I was looking for something like that but never found nothing...
I made some adjusts... the eyes r still strange, but I'll change that soon... today if I can I'll try some new materials, and then I put something here...

Romz-boot,

I got a ton of Gundam books, that one I scanned from one of my 'Gundam library'. I think that pic should correct some proportion on your model. If you need any specific RX78 reference for the head or other body proportion, PM me.

To Romz-boot, Mangalaranja, or anyone else who wants to model Gundam RX78:

I am giving you this definitive Gundam Reference accurate to within 0.001% of an inch, so you better make the best damn looking Gundam or else!

i think something is wrong with the face.... hmmm.. the expression of a gundam is not there... but it looks kind of cute :p

Maybe try not to smooth the face too much... the edges looks a bit too rounded to me... you know wat i mean?

Anyway good work on the body.
