This is the first print of one of my mecha figures. I may tweak a bit of scaling on it, but overall I'm really happy with it.

I've got a Robotech Figure, the Combat armor unit, and a Gundam figure

Any and all comments and critique are appreciated, I realize the photo isn't amazing, I need to get it painted. Then I'll break out the good camera.

1/285th, there will be a series of figures, the limbs torsos, heads and legs are all going to be swappable and the parts will be cast with holes for magnets. I need to test this to make sure it'll work still though, hopefully the arms don't weigh so much that they slouch.

Will you be casting in white metal or resin? Resin you'll have no problem, white metal I don't think you'll have any issues either as those rare earth magnets are pretty strong.

These are Gundam 1/400 models in plastic from the "Gundam Collection". I use them as knight proxies!

I'll have to hire out to have it done. I've got some feelers out for who to ask though, we'll see what happens.
