Daishi Kit

Ok everyone, I have broken the Daishi down into pieces and have sent the info to the caster for a quote.  I am hoping to keep it to about $125 per kit...but this is a BIG kit...on par with the Atlas when it comes to the amount of resin.  I have asked to have the torso hollow cast because that would be way to heavy for the legs if is is solid.

Like last time, this will be a pre-order deal.  If the requisite number of pre-orders are not filled then the kit won't be cast...and those who have pre-ordered will get a full refund.  Also, if you pre-ordered the Cougar, you will receive a discount on this kit with a paid pre-order or a free 1/60 scale Elemental (I saved all the invoices...I know who you are!).  I will decide which to do.

More to come....

New Kit in the running

I have been wanting to cast up another mech and it seems the Nova Cat was going to be the run-away winner.  BUT...I have had someone come forward and make a great offer to help fund the Daishi.  So, how many of you would be interested in having a Daishi in your collection?

Adrain's Argus

Adrain has build a few mechs of ours over the years.  Today, he has sent in his build of the Argus which he heavily customized.  Thanks for submitting Adrain...it looks great!

In his own words:  I totally forgot to share this with you. this is an Argus I bought from Scott, which I have modified. I added a cockpit using a 1/48 scale plane, machine guns underneath the "nose", added an engine and an electrical maintenance panel too. as for the paint job I went for a desert camo with a shark mouth. hope you like it as much as I do.
I do!  Nice take on this mech!

Home and healing

Alrighty everyone!  I am home and healing...actually, I got in and out Monday, but yesterday was a blur with all the dope they put me on.  Today I am dealing more with a sore neck...feels like they tried to rip my head from my body. 

So, it seems like it is down to the Flea or the Nova Cat.  If I do this, it will be like last time...doing pre-orders to get the ball rolling.  I still need to get a quote from the caster, but the Nova Cat is going to be a pain to cast unless I make some mods to it.  What would you all be willing to pay for a Nova Cat? For the Flea?

Back to the hospital (UPDATE)

So, I go back into the hospital Monday for another round of surgery.  This one should not be as bad as the last, but I will still be down for a couple weeks...hopefully less.  In the meantime, I am pondering the next kit to cast.  I am thinking either the Flea, the Owens, or the Nova Cat.  Any thoughts?  The Flea or Owens would be in the $50-$60 range and the Nova Cat would run around $100-$120.

Here are some additional shots of the Nova Cat.

I am parting with the Hunchback. Contact me if interested or look here:

NovaCat

A while ago I wanted to build this mech, but Scott was already working one so I figured I would wait and see what he came up with.  Recently, I got his build from him and like with the Anni, I am carrying it to the finish line.

Daishi Update

I have done a little detail work on the Daishi.  It still needs some more detail work and weathering, but I wanted to get some pics up since it has been so long since I posted any real progress.

Also in the works...an Owens and Novacat. Both are builds Scott started and I am taking to the finish line...still tinkering with the Nova.
