Second part and final submission!

Hi everyone! I managed to finish my project just in time for the summer holidays. I decided to split the reveal into two updates since I couldn't post more than 10 photos; you'll see this update without the LEDs, and the next one with them. I’ll also be uploading a video—which I’ve already shared on my social media—featuring close-ups of the entire figure. I want to thank everyone who followed this project; it was a real challenge for me, as I only discovered this hobby back in February, but it helped me get through some truly difficult times. What struck me most was how welcoming this community is—people offer advice and encourage you to always do your best. Thanks to everyone who read this far, and—most importantly—good luck to the other participants; may the best person win!

Ok managed to get everything toghter i still have to hide the cables and do some proper welding, i also dont know if i should use some airbrush onto the cotton that i used for the smoke to give a little bit of dept. I also plan to do some sort of metallic tag to add to the base with maybe the project title.

Nothing much going on this week, i was waiting to the wooden base to arrive and i will probably fix everything togheter next week. I wanted a cleaner base cause the gundam one i had was to big and didnt fit the aestetic of the kit. I also got some copper tube so i can hide the led cables and make it look much cleaner.

Led works done, now i need to do a little bit of cable management and hide some of the cable to make the diorama look clean, soldering the cable was challenging as it was my first time doing it. Also using some resistence to match the best voltage for my leds as I had only 3v batteries. We almost done guys cant wait to post the final result

Hello guys this week i worked on adding some smoke effect and some projectile effect for my project, i used spare sword laser i had laying around from the other gunpla ive build. Next week i will ad the leds and wire everything up and call it finished probably. Stay tuned!!

Quick early update on theproject, in this update i will show the base, i managed to put everything togheter, i have still to color the base and the supports for the various debris, im waiting for the soldering iron to arrive so i can do the led works and later add some explosion effect. The pose its just a work in progress i have still to figure out how to position the gundam.

Hello guys this week i worked a little bit on the background of my project, i decided to create some sort of spaceship debris using stuff i found at a general store,left over sprue of the gundam mk2 and a cheap model kit of a tank found on the second hand market. I cut everything and glued it togheter then i took a lighter and added some hole to make it feels more realistic , i airbrushed everything using the Gaalheri matt black primer, some grey and at the end i used some drybrush to add some shine and dept for the steel to make it look more realistic. The next step will be solder and do some cable managemet for the kit and decied how to put everything togheter!

This week i Finished adding decals and doing some led works(cable management it still a little bit messy but ill figure it out before the end of the entry , next week i will start adding element of the background im still figuring out what to do, as im really new to this world and i never done a diorama.
