I got this crazy idea a while ago to make a Gundam out of a Space Marine. I got influenced by the wicked Wing Zero from Gundam Wing. Firstly I got the model.. What better pose then that of the Emperor's Champion. Some wings from a Brettonian Pegasus knight; And the exhaust thingoes from a Drednaught.. There were also minor things such as a meltagun, dark elf shield that was modified and a poweraxe handle to add to the meltagun, extra pair of shoulder pads and greenstuff.. See for yourself and if you have any suggestions please let me know =D http://i333.photobucket.com/albums/m.../Gundam002.jpg http://i333.photobucket.com/albums/m.../Gundam003.jpg http://i333.photobucket.com/albums/m.../Gundam004.jpg http://i333.photobucket.com/albums/m.../Gundam005.jpg http://i333.photobucket.com/albums/m.../Gundam006.jpg I'll upload more pics when its fully painted =D

That thing is cool. It does look like Gundam. The use of all those parts is good and it seems to have good proportions and style to it. Also it does look very different which is good to see.

I'll admit, I cringed when I saw the title of this thread, because I've seen "Gundam" inspired models before and they're usually a complete failure. But I like yours, it keeps the feel of both Gundam and Space Marines. But I have 2 sugestions: the wings feel a little low, it seems like they should be "sprouting" from around his shoulder area, but they are coming out of his middle back. his antenna are a little thick, make them thinner because they feel clunky. good job though

Thanks all! I know it seems the wings may be a bit low, however this is because of the orientation of the wings and a bit because of the angle the pics were taken. I examined other models with wings such as harpies and the joints for the wings are slightly below where I put my ones. Also i did try them higher up but they wouldnt stay or even look natural. I see your point with the antenna though.. It does look chunky but I dont exactly know what to do with it =S So if anyone has any ideas please share =D p.s. I have undercoated the junk on the bottom so I shall soon paint it and finish it off. I'll post pics asap =D
