Well progress was going great on this model until i went to take some pictures of it when it fell off my desk and crashed to the floor. Quite a lot of damage, both legs hanging off, arm fell off and it's two wings/ rockets had crushed at the point where they join to the main body. I have re-built it again but have improved the joints where they attach i.e. ankles,hips,shoulders. I did this by layering three sheets of 140gm card together and cutting to match, they will definitely not fall off now.
The only fault it has now is that it is too heavy on the back of the model, I think it was what had caused the model to fall in the first place. So after a few different designs and shapes i came out with a simple block to support the weight and have added the correct dimensions of the "real" gundam to make it look not so boring and plain. think it works.....
