Hi guys! Just wanna share my latest build, its an MG Gouf Custom from Bandai. Did a couple of modifications to it using Texas Colony's work as reference: -shorten snout -widen the sides of the torso by 2mm -bulked up the shoulders by 1mm on each side -bulked up the chest piece -extended the back pack by 3mm -lowered thigh-crotch joint by 4mm -widen the thighs -widen the front and rear skirts -extended the front crotch armor -detailing and decals added

It really gives out the heavy mech feel, really love it!!!
My only thought would be the spikes on the shoulders, 'coz it looks rather clean in comparison to the other weathered parts.

Wow awesome my 2nd favourite mech from my favourite series! 8th MS teaaaaam! It looks great, very subtle weathering and faded paint befitting the well used mech of a ZEON ACE!

Sorry for the late reply OzanBG, which part exactly? usually I use a black base coat for metallic finishes.

Wow nice build bro. The color modulation and all the little weathering details really enhances the look of the Gouf.
