Wow, that will be a huge and heavy figure ! I can't wait to see it ! :giggle:
The biggest guy I painted was this 1/5 Hulk kit => ogamitaicho.deviantart.com/gal…
A more than 10kg kit !!! Psychotic

Yeah I've seen that paint up you did, so huge!
im going to use screws to put it together like you did.

Sure, screws are the best way to secure kits on their base. ^_^
It is also removable and fits very well in polyurethane resin that is enough "flexible" to create a "screw thread" the first time you screw.
Most of the time I use this system now for my figures and mechas.
I'm currently building a Raiden kit here are just few picts of the parts => s609.photobucket.com/user/ogam…
And I the screws holes for the legs are ready !

Have fun with your Hugo ! ^_^

I was tempted to get that raiden kit too, did you get if from E2046?
I'm already running out of room, so I have to limit my collection to street fighter kits only.
i really look forward to seeing your raiden, especially the wips!

i thinking of starting a blog for my sculpture winos and stuff like that.

Yep I got it from them, a very nice and sharp recast.
The original was pretty impossible to find unfortunately even on Yahoo Japan Auction...

This kit is not very easy to paint, many details so many masking time... I have just completed the body, I need more time to finish the head/accesories. I made also a special base, a lot bigger than the furnished one...
The WIP will be very short because it is essentially basic masking technicals... :D 

Yes sure, that would be interesting to see some of your progress on a blog ! ^_^

Oh man I can't wait to see the base you made, love your custom bases!
You could do something cut in half with a really clean cut, like on the game.

Yep I was thinking about it ! A basic enemy would have been nice like the one sold with the PVC => www.metalgearinformer.com/wp-c…
Unfortunately it was not sold with the GK version... :( and I don't have the skills to sculpt it ! :roll:
Anyway, I will find some other solution, I will maybe cut some elements (structure), like a the item boxes we can find in the game... ;p
