Ghost in the Shell Project Update more minis 19/8.

[Anpu]

I will be starting a project log for Ghost in the shell.
The project will be going live at Gubbspel Galore V in Gothenburg at the end of august.
Here is a few WIP pics
Think Tank




HAW-206 Prototype

Minis for the project, Freom left to right Motoko Kusanagi v1, Batou, Motoko Kusanagi SAC version 2, Motoko Kusanagi SAC version 3, Thermoptic Camouflage, Motoko Kusanagi Arise version 4, all except Batou in WIP stage of painting. The different Motokos will be used in different parts/scenarios.

Still looking for useful miniatures for Paz, Saito, Ishikawa, Borma and Aramaki so if anyone has any suggestions they are welcome.

Tank and prototype must have been costly?

[Dr Mathias]

Good lord, where'd you get the R3000 Spider tank!!!???

Great project, I have almost all those figures lounging around my hobby area.

They set me back about £40 each including postage and about £8 in customs charge for the HAW.

Great project, I have almost all those figures lounging around my hobby area.

Found it on ebay, turned out to be a recast kit I am afraid. Brittle low quality resin.
Well it turned out ok after a bit of work. The scale is about 1/50.
The HAW is from Hobbylink japan and is a 1/35 scale kit. Repositionable and with exchangeable parts. I guess I will have to glue it together in a final pose before painting.

Cool 

I think I'll be looking for similar kits next time I'm over in Japan 

cheers

I love GITS. I will follow this project eagerly. I saw that tank model before, and I think it's forward pointing torso is too narrow or long. Anyway, I hope to see more of your efforts in the future

Might I suggest picking up the not-kusanagi figures from a antenocitis workshop Governance of Technology range, I bought them at salute and they really lovely and, conveniently, come in stealthier and un-stealthed versions! They are only around until the end of June so worth picking up while you can!

Hasslefree also has a Not-Marv / Not-Hellboy with changeable head. It would serve well for Batou. I think I have seen at least one other GITS poject that had a very cool (customized?) Batou figure that looked exactly like in the movie.

East Riding Miniatures also has a nice near-future range, might be worth a look.

WOW! 

Looking great, Anders!

Looking good so far. Always wanted some ghost in the shell minitures. Will keep an eye out.

Ditto, together with some suitable rules that fit the genre well and that are quite customisable.

This is my Tachikoma that I built, together with Kusanagi and Batou.

Long live GITS!

[Malebolgia]

I agree but it is the best one I have found yet...

Got that one and have ordered the clear one as well. I will be getting the clear version of of Capt Isseki as well (Bateu) from Hasslefree.

Hasslefree also has a Not-Marv / Not-Hellboy with changeable head. It would serve well for Batou. I think I have seen at least one other GITS poject that had a very cool (customized?) Batou figure that looked exactly like in the movie.
East Riding Miniatures also has a nice near-future range, might be worth a look.

I was thinking of perhaps using him as another Bateu or perhaps Borma with a headswap.

WOW!  
Looking great, Anders!

Thanks Dave, I will be using Pulp Alley for this one as well.

I have been oogling and drooling over your thread for a long time now, I must see if I can manage to do something similar....

Thanks coming from you that is high praise indeed, your excellent cyberpunk thread was a great inspiration.
