Might be a diorama focusing more on the MS representations of the two snipers who volunteered for what was essentially a suicide mission to protect the downed Black Hawk's crew. I sort of got that feeling from the pics, but the first man downed was unable to fire any more shots after taking a hit, so the Jesta sitting down with the sniper rifle seems off to me.
Normally I would praise this for great attention to detail, and it certainly deserves it. But with the skill shown in the rest of the diorama, there is one glaring issue I can't help but call out. Where is the severed leg? And on that note, with the skill shown elsewhere, why isn't there any damage on the remaining knee? Surely a soldering iron or a heated knife can't be too difficult to use for some exhibiting this caliber of work.
This isn't the MG. There's no shield insignia and there's a 1/144 hover tank there as well.
ReplyDeleteYou forgot the fact that one of the jesta's has the jesta cannon rifle.
Deleteshield insignia can be easily removed
DeleteThose are definitely 144 High Grades.
ReplyDelete'Black Hawk Down' but no chopper wreck? Uhm, did the builder forget something?
ReplyDeleteOtherwise, nice work, Jesta is good stuff.
