Night of the Living Nemo

Posted by Falldog [www] 

A while back I bought a whole bunch of MG Nemo kits to fulfill some dastardly plan. Fortunately I never got around to that plan as I came up with a new, more dastardly idea while watching 28 Weeks Later. I sat around on the idea for awhile until I heard of this competition and thought I'd make a decent entry. It's my first contest entry so don't be too harsh!

I live in the Northern VA area, and have been building kits for about a year now. Before that, I built a bunch while I was in high school, but I was just a snapper back then.

The original idea was to have three infected Nemos attacking a fourth, who wasn't doing so well. For the time being I only focused on two of them while the second pair are in various stages of painting.

I chronicled my progress on my blog/gunpla guide so that friends could follow along. There are still a bunch of details I need to add so people can learn from my experiance. If you have any questions please let me know! I'm pleased with how it turned out since most of the kit's features were fashioned in a "well, I think if I do this, it'll turn out like this" sense.

I have larger versions of these photos, along with progress photos and images from the poor guy you can see getting eaten in the first image, on my flickr gallery.

P.S. I wish Bandai would grace us with more MGs from X and Victory.

A friend said I should have them doing the Thriller dance.

It'll look great when I eventually have all four of them together.

      You know, the whole DC Cell thing didn't even cross my mind until your post, even though it makes a lot of sense!

    Great work! I would definitely be creeped out if I saw this thing dancing in a dark alley. What makes it even creepier is that it's eating, but has no mouth to actually eat the mobile suit guts with... (-_-)

    Looks like Umbrella got a sample of the DG Cell :P

    How about some more advanced decay?
    Like the skin at the body drops off revealing the ribs or something XD

      If I knew how to do that without completely destroying the plastic I might. Unfortunately there isn't a whole lot of hidden detail under the armor.
