Hello guys.
After spending last 18 months to work on commissioned pattern for other factories (9 months just for one

), what's better to give vent on this one!
As Michael usually says, "this is a mental-health project".
Yes, Buchner is totally free-design, free-sculpting, no need to observe rules, deadlines, streight design restrictions, specular troubles and the size of this thing makes seem to work more on a sculpture than on a model.
I had fun also to leave usual white Milliput creating all possible color combos (I know it's useless thing, but maybe not....:) ), grey with black, red with yellow, etc....I'm also using a lot of Aves (RED!!

)
Since last update on this (I think 2002-2003 if I'm not wrong) Buchner was untouched untill last month, when beetween the end of a long commisioned project and the beginning of a new one, I've spent a couple of weeks of pure sculpting fun on this bad guy.
Unfortunately, it has been left aside already. I really don't know when another update will be possible, I just hope it won't take 8 more years

As usual, like Buchner himself wants, no rules, no laws, no deadlines for it!

As you can see, now it's even more tall.
I've redone the whole hips mechanical complex, as it is for ankles.

1/35 Buchner....YES.....BUCHNER!!^^
Right feet was 100% redone, having fun to use the weirdest parts ever, like Briegel chest parts, G.I.Joe toy vent, etc...
The bottom of the feet were equipped by Hovertank units and vents and a lot of random details were added on the ankles.

Also pelvis, tail (Briegel's modified back),belly and torso were heavily modified, adding details, drilled alluminium plates,
