Fly Gundam!

[Momotaro]

Some pics of my Gundam - not to take away from Hat Guy's nice work, but for scale comparison.  A pin wash or some ink in the details is needed, and I need to weather them.  The great thing about the kits is that they pull apart to put some matt varnish on each piece individually.

First up, three Zaku 1 Snipers:



For Grimnar, compared with the Assault Kingdom Z'Gok:



Last one, this time comparing against 28mm figs - Old Crow light tank, GW Space Marine, Dreamforge Eisenkern and AT-43 Fire Toad.  And my SD Asshimar:

Yeah man, start your own thread so we can stop being jerks to HatGuy.

Well damn you. Cause of these i had to stop in and get a few AK Z'Goks.
Can you show a Z'Gok with a 15mm fig? Just send to me.

Finished another Zaku II:

I look at this Zaku and his little gun compared to the snipers above and think isn't his little peashooter so cute?
I like it. Zaku is always an iconic Gundam. Looking good. Going to need to get about another 30 or so done so you can do a proper battle. :-)

What can I say - I'm a bad man   At least Hat Guy's are painted!

If I had any 15mm minis, Grim, I would surely send you a pic of one...

And the Zaku Snipers also come with those "peashooters" as an alternative weapon.

[Jaeger]

Looks great.

Funny thing is, that those "peashooters" actually are fully Automatic 120mm cannons.

Says a Little about the scale.

[Hat Guy]

Yeah 1/144 equates roughly to 10-12mm in Wargames scale, these things are meant to be big. Good thing I don't have a Galloop or Big Ro.

I just bought two more Zgok's cause of you, least you can do is buy some 15mm comparison figs. :-)

No mate, I just got you hooked.  Now you have to provide pics and a game report

I was always hooked.
I had already bought others from the line. BUT if we are assigning blame it goes to Dropzonetoe who listed the Gundam  Converge over on TMP a couple of weeks ago. W/O that i would have never looked further or asked the questions i did on the Gundams here. But i still blame you.
I still dont know what to do with the ZGok's. There is a scifi race that resembles this mecha design just cant recall who it is.
As for pics and a battle report? How about ya poop in one hand and wait for that report in the other and see which gets filled up first.  ;-)

Finished the last Gundam for Sunday's demo game:


RX-78

This thing is a beast in the game, the only time I ever killed with was with a Gouf specifically built to tear it apart.

Very nice Zakus, I like them.

Which rules are you using?

[Hat Guy]

It's called Mobile Suit Gundam Battle System, I found it on the web years ago. Basically a conversion for 3rd ed 40K, but it plays quite well.

[Jaeger]

Looking good. Do remeber some Photos sunday. 

[maxxon]

Darn, look what you made me do! I went online and ordered a pile of Assault Kingdom models...

I'll have to look into the rules... or maybe I'll just adopt Lightning Strike rules, I find them the best mecha rules I've seen so far, only let down by lack of construction rules.

What is your source for those who may be looking to follow suit. :-)
