While paint dries on my Flaptter figures, I've started on my Newtype-Use Gelgoog. What makes it an NT use MS? Pretty much just some funnels on the shield and because I said so. I could make crap up about magnetic joint coating and a 360 degree cockpit, but really I just want to make a cool looking mecha.

I'll be doing a color scheme and look similar to the [S,MATNGA GELGOOG] seen only as a thumbnail here on Jeep's site. I'll also be taking ques from his thruster bell work when creating mine. This means bells within bells to give a dynamic look. You can see some great work on another of his Gelgoogs here.

For accessories, I'll be using a double-wide Zaku shield, Dom heavy beam cannon, and funnels made from Zaku shoulder spikes. The fore-arms will be modified to remove the vents and to add instead one beam spray gun and one chain-whip. I'll also be adding plenty of beads and chain from the MechaSkunk store.

Below you can see images of where I'm at so far:
