Zaku II Johnny Ridden - NKGC Orange Contest

Posted by Pggasta [www] 

After the Gundam Head, here one other model I've finished in this time, the Zaku II for the NKGC Orange Contest.
He did not come just as I wanted, but I am satisfied with the result.
Compared to the original model, I modified the thruster attack on the legs, add some details and various panels and some options part.
Unfortunately, the metallic orange came not as I expected ...

What you think??

    Over all it looks good, but if I were judging an orange themed category and there was a competitor who's suit was all orange, I'd have to go with him based on the theme alone. :/

          No, only orange...
          But yesterday I've modified and recoloured the orange parts with some Red clear.
          Now is really orange!!!!
