It almost looks like it needs a few small handguns/submachineguns. Maybe something Uzi-like in each hand to offset the bulk.

another great source of weapon ideas are pc games... try some of the newer first person shooters, more serious developing companies do their research well before desingning their stuff (basically i ripped my over-sized-hexagonal barreled and canisters sticking out of the side railgun/rocketlauncher idea off Unreal Tournament :) )
with your scratchbuilding skills it'd would look awesome...

Yes, I think I'll make short gun too. I don't know if two, but one is almost sure.!

The feet are excellent Luca.  So much detail....

I like the Assault Rifle, but I REALLY like the Locust Heavy Weapon! That gets my vote.   Big Grin

Hi All!
Sorry for delay in replies guy. I've been very busy in last weeks Sad
I've just finished to refine and re-detail what I've done in last months, before starting with hands, shield and finally.....the gun!

Yes, so many.  Sick

The feet are excellent Luca.  So much detail....

I'll try to start something on weapon next week, because I have firstly to create the shield. BTW I'll show some progress of it!

Yes, the foot is the Briegel one completely modified.
Also pistons are modified from Briegel.!

  Wow!! Fantastic...

 Cool Very cool, I love all of the detail on the MS, especially since it is a 1/100 scale model.

I can't wait to see it fully painted, I want to see the weapons that you design for the Z-goblin.

I do wonder how much is this going cost approximately though if Luca wants to cast it...

Looking forward to the Buchner kit too...hopefully it can be completed one day... Wink

P.S. I would love to request some pictures of the Bamyasi too...Thanks... DOH!

Hi all guys!
Now that Goblin's body is almost finished and refined, I can finally create peripheral parts.
Let's shield, this time.
I started from a phone that a friend of mine was throwing away some yeras ago. It comes handly because shape and measures are perfect.
My idea is to create a "L-shaped" shield that can be applied on the right shoulders and on left arm too, as a traditional shield (that's why I made an embrasure on it). To make that I decided to create a joint between two parts, so that it can be streightened.
It will contain 2 sturmfaust too, wich I'm creating with my lathe.
With it I'm making also barbes of left shoulders, some thrusters and other details I'll show you very soon (hey Fulcy, don't worry...only one of ech, I have to create a good master only! Big Grin).
Thanks for watching
Enjoy!  Smiley

Luca, I cannot tell you how much I love to watch you work.  I only wish that a group of us could all get together one day and talk models and show our works to each other in person.  That would be SO much fun!
