The Catapult: GAF Member Feature - Anazasi's 1/100 HORUS (Zaku) & 1/144 QAN[t] resin

I know right!!! This is insanity!! Lets talk about the build, according to Anazasi, he used 90% of the inner frame of MG Zaku Cannon and 40% of it's armor for the project. The armors, scratch built using epoxy putty and pla plate. He also uses parts from the MG Gyan. Well, he also mentioned he was planning to simulate the ANUBIS kit but can't find any ''Jackal head'' and found a ''Falcon head'' instead. Not too sure what that meant, but the Falcon head is a really good complement to the overall build. I love 'spine' in my mecha, and this build has one of the best spine. The neck and the stomach, organic detail FTW!!

Now that's out of the way, look at the colour. Gold with Green lines, I salute him! That is one colour combo that I would not have come up with. And it looks pretty good eh! It made things more organic in my opinion.

Arnaments!! Oh my, missile pods, sword of longinus, shield, psychic energy. That is one hell of a killer machine! I can only stare at it with envy as I made the connection that this will not be in my display case. You can stare at it with envy too! Just click on the image above, transport yourself to GAF and stare..............

Sigh.. What can't this guy do?? one minute awesome scratch build, the next a superb resin build. Note that this is 1/144, that is one small size resin that I do not want to deal with. But look at that beauty, everything is so streamlined, and personally, I love the ELS QAN[t].Needless to say, this is a job well done. The gradient on the ELS QAN[t] looked good here, of course this is his 3rd, wait, 4th [?] ELS QAN[t] so I am not that surprised that he poopped this out in record breaking time and still retain the quality of his work.

Enough from me so, click on the image above to float to the Catapult.

GO GAF GO GO GO!!!

The Catapult: GAF Member Feature - Anazasi VP Hi Nu Conversion

Man.. Do I love the VP Hi Nu conversion kit. So sharp and detailed. It takes an already killer design and just maxes it out.

So it is a pleasure and a rare treat to see a very well executed VP Hi Nu given the expert treatment of a senior Gunplar such as Anazasi, leader of the Gundam Mecha Arts and Crafts movement (GMAC).

What blows me away is that he says it took him only 2 weeks to prep, assemble, and paint this kit! I would be lucky to do it inside of two decades!

I haven't had much time to do a lot with the blog of late and I've really missed out on featuring some outstanding builds from GAF, so please accept my apologies and feel welcome to come and have a poke around The Catapult to see what our members have been up to.

Click on the image above to be taken to Anazasi's thread at GAF, which also links back to his blog. Plenty more pics and dialogue if you're keen for more!

Thanks for reading :)
