I expect to have the Hover Pilder finalized by next weekend if I can score more Mold rubber/Resin supplies this week. zozo-Mag

I promised RJ member bourno a drawing for his mold project last night; but I got home very late from work so that I could finish This... Page 42......It's not exactly what I had hoped for; but for now I feel Relieved. If I can improve its look I'll try, otherwise I really Don''t wanna ruin it. ;D More on the way later... zozo-Mag

That, I''ll try and see. I really had hoped to get all the panel-lines in his suit for it to look as good as the anime source. But, again, I can only Try... he is very small, between my thumb and index finger; any more carving and I''ll break him. I cannot go through another vortex with him, after last weekend's bout. ;D

Remember, the figure is smaller than a coin. Detailing something that small without the proper tools is very difficult indeed. Attempts to put too much detail into it might end up ruining the figure...

dont you have any koji figure that you could try to molded out and altered a bit so you can fit it inside the pilder, how about the little koji figure statue that comes with the SoC black Mazinger Z or the Soc Mazinger Z kaiser OVA version?

I don't have either one of those which you mention. The only Koji figure I have is a custom Koji that I mutated from a 4" red Power Ranger figure... too big for this gig. I thought about buying some generic toy jet-fighter pilot from my local Family Dollar store; but then I still had to sculpt the helmet for those sharkie fins which Koji's got on his helmet. I put that idea aside because I wanted to make my Koji pilot from scratch so it would be unique. zozo-Mag

I think koji looks good, and will look even better when it is painted.

Thanks, guys. Yeah, he'll get painted when he's cast in his final form, and the paint job will help the appearance of the detail a little bit. I'll get back to him later even though he's fine for now. Next up, the Pilder, again... ;D Page 43...Page 44...Page 45......I can hardly wait! Stay tuned for more... ;D zozo-Mag
