This is Ranba Ral's Zaku-1 custom as seen in the "Blood of Zeon" Playstation
game. Converted from an HG Zaku.
The rounded shoulder armors came from a FG Zaku model. I cut off the
spikes, filled them with putty and sanded them smooth.
Cut sheet styrene was added to the Head for the rear antenna
and the central visor support. The front antenna came (ironically
enough) from a gouf model. The gun was the standard one that came with
the HG with pieces cut and assembled differantly with
sheet styrene added at the back to balance the rifle and add effect.
The backpack had 1cm cut off the bottom. I then filed the sides
evenly to reflect the new angles. The cockpit hatch cover was a recast
of the scratch built cockpit cover used on the standard MS-05.
I also extended the poles on the feet using aluminum pipe. This
gave the feet better clearance and maneuverability.
