Primed all the resin parts making all the casting flaws more visible. Unfortunately 80-85% of the parts have problems like this.

Applied putty, and sanded all resin parts. Will prime again to check again for errors.

I will be selling these 2 kits and all of the profit will be donated to the victims of typhoon Yolanda.

Reinforcing some parts that are prone to breakeage with 0.5mm styrene sheets.

 

Decided to just replace the warp verniers with Kotobukiya after market parts.

Weapon/s assembly. Some parts have fitting issues and quite deformed maybe due to packaging.

This is the main attachment for the wings. Quite sturdy but some areas are quite thin and needs to be strengthen, maybe I'll glue some PS sheets later.

Badly deformed, will either clean or just replace it with Kotobukiya after market parts.

The wings.

Wave copper wire/rods for pinning.

 

Pinning some of the parts of the back pack and wings.

After pinning, the whole wing assembly can hold itself a bit better but still needs to be fixed after painting.

Wing assembly when opened.

Leg Assembly: encountered some fitting problems on the knee armor, the lower part is badly recasted and needs some major carving/shaving in order to fit properly.

 Arms Assembly: again there were some fitting problems, but a bit easier to solve than the knee armor parts.

Shoulder Assembly: fitting is good, just need some pinning and putty to smoothen some deformed surface.

The kit as of this stage, peronally I'm quite digging it. Very sexy proportions.

Just a little bit of update. Started dry-fitting the kit and its not that pretty. Encountered some problems along the way which will definitely slow this build. Here are some of them;

 Since this is a recasted garage kit, the surface quality is not that good, will need priming and lots of sanding to make the surface smooth and ready for painting.

There are also fitting problems, this one for example; the resin part wont fit the frame of the Bandai kit, it needs some drilling and slicing in order for them to fit perfectly.

 There are also some broken parts, so far this is the only one.

Lots of excess resin materials to be trimmed and cleaned.

Since there are fitting problems most of the backpack parts needs to be pinned and refitted. 

   

So far here's how it looks. Still a long way to go.

 

 

Latest commission build. Bandai MG Wing Gundam Ver. Ka + resin Wing 0 conversion kit. This will be a priority build so all ongoing projects will be put on hold. So far everything looks good, packaging of the 3rd party parts is great, also comes with metal thrusters and a small decal sheet. I'll try post updates as much as i can. 

 

This one's next. Its a 1/100 scale Arios from Bandai. Will again be added to my "Sale" section and also at TRMS FB page once finished. Right now Im still looking all over the net for a cool build of this kit that I can use as a reference. So far I find the kit very solid and it has a nice proportion but lacks in details, so maybe I'll focus that by adding panels and maybe some after market parts just to lift the design but still maintaining the original design.

Done with my 1/144 Gundam Virtue from Bandai. This model will be under the "customized model kits for sale" of Team Renegade Modeling Services. Very impressive kit especially for a 1/144th scale, assembly is quite easy with minimal seams that needs to be sealed. Well-balanced and can be pose fairly. My only gripe is the lack of details which I think becoming standard with Bandai's 1/144 releases. Since I love the proportion of the kit, I did not made any drastic modifications. I just added a couple of details (panel lines, plastic rods and decals from Bandai & Samuel) to improve the overall look of the kit. Fully painted with Gaianotes lacquers, panel wash with Tamiya enamels.

Just a small update about the Virtue Gundam WIP. Added some panel lines on the whole kit, copied some from the 1/100 scale. Also added a few details like rivet holes. The kit is a bit plain looking but the proportion looks good at least for my taste, so no heavy modifications needed. Will just have to clean the scribed parts before painting.

Next WIP for the TRMS 2nd auction. It will be a clean build with a bit of detailing to complement my previous Nadleeh build.
