    Radical Edward and Ein...thats great. Is there a way for us unable to Attend a tournament on another continent to get our dirty mittens on this maybe as a 3d printable file?

    What infinity faction would the crew members of the Bebop flock from and why?

    I am not sure what I will be doing after the tournament. I want to make sure it remains special for the folks who attend the tournament, but would also like to make it more than just a one off.

    As to your second question, Jet Black would be ex O-12.

    Converted up a Raicho to look closer to the concept art by Roberto Zoreda. One of the bigger upsides of removing the pelt from the arm was that I was able to reposition it, so the gun barrel is not dragging on the ground.

    Nice work. Have to say I’m not a fan of the pelt either (make the model a no go for me). You fixed it though

    Finished up a conversion for my Multi Rifle, Heavy Riotstopper Omega FO. I used the weapons package for the Kytta for parts, and decided to add the big flash bulb over the shoulder to help break up the silhouette and make it a bit more distinct from the HMG.

    I gave Robin Hook an Ariadnan rifle left over from a conversion. I cannot use her in Tunguska, but she looks like she is wearing the same kind of sleeve as a CheerKiller, so I will use her as my 5th whenever I need to.

    Robin is indeed a great cheerkiller proxy !
    Your angular pieces of greenstuff are really sharp, how do you work them ? Do you cut the pieces and then let it dry before assembling ?
    I'm blown away by the Omega multi-rifle, it really inspire me to try gun sculpts

    I sometimes do some cleanup with a hobby knife and some fine grit sand paper after the greenstuff has cured, but mostly it is done at the sculpting stage. For things like straps or capes, I will let some greenstuff cure, (or mostly cure), and then cut to fit.

    For the Kempeitai I used the spitfire arms from the Spec-Ops model.

    I also did a quick repose of the Caskuda. The combination of tiny arms and thermoplastic allowed me to complete the conversion pretty quickly, I was even able to reuse the fingers from the fist.

    The Jotum was a bit more of a task to convert, but I am pretty happy with the overall result.

    Those reposes are excellent. You take good sculpts and make them great. Nice work!

    At the moment I do not have plans to release the STL, but I will let you know if those plans change.

    Sculpted up a Rem Racer based off of the character art of Xiu Zhihang from Rem Racer.

    quite clever, I also love how different results you got from the same sculpt.

    Thanks, It is one of my favorite sculpts to work with because of how easy it is to convert off of.

    Your conversions and modelling is stunning. I am amazed what people can do with green stuff. I am happy to fill gaps and hopefully dont have to carve in any structure. Meanwhile you say you "do conversions" to a handfull of miniature.... god damn, you basicly resculped entire miniatures that happen to be infinity modells Ö.ö (is that where the saying comes from: "In every large girl there is a little yu jing pilot girl that i did a conversion on"?)
    Realy amazing work.

    I know there is one profile every O-12 player has been clamoring for and that is the Bluecoat Redfury, so I converted one out of a spare Kappa from Defiance.
