[@DTTCReviews]

My favorite aquatic mobile suit. Looking forward to seeing the finished product.

[@ciscocalixto]

Looking good bro. It makes me happy to see that you want to improve the mobility and articulation, your scratchbuilding knowledge has gone way up since last year. To be honest, I've been following you since maybe 2008 and I never thought you would share so much experience with your followers, thanks for passing on the know-how. Keep up the good work bro.

For the rounded sections, would ribbing work? You could cut out v strips that's half as deep as the pla plate is thick to remove material that would obstruct the plastic when bending, then bend in so the two sides of the channel you made touch. The thinner walls would also be more flexible, but I'm not sure how brittle the plastic itself is. If need be you could support the inside with a bit of epoxy or modeling putty. That method should save on material and sanding time. Great work as always!

"Twinkie with a camera on it" is the best description of anything ever. I wish you luck with this project, can't wait to see what else you can come up with :D.

[@gunplanut]

Have you ever thought about plank on frame construction like in wooden model ships for the curved and rounded areas? Make a frame in the general shape of what you want and then use plastic strips to make the outer skin. Once that's done just sand everything smooth to the way you want it.

[@DiscoPegasus]

Been waiting to see someone do this forever!!!!!!! Can't wait to see more

[@AgentWebs]

Pisces is a pretty badass aquatic mobile suit. Can't wait to see the finished model

[@rghitchen]

I think a good way to add transformable mobility for the fin/claws might be to use a ball joints/hing like pieces if you can find a way to make them look good.(Which for you shouldn't be a cake walk)

[@rxslinger]

sweet I've been waiting too see you build the pisces

[@cVanishMantle]

You are inspiring me to start building scratch build mechs of my own. I would love a tutorial or a simple tips and where to buy stuff if i wanted to build something custom.

[@MushaGundamMKIII]

Wow never knew how awesome Pisces is.

[@DianteEx]

***** for your next work in progress could you take us on a step by step tutorial on how you created your custom models using plaplate? I wanna create my own models from my own designs and any help doing that would be greatly appreciated.

[@crapmunky99]

Man, I don't envy the work you have cut out for you. But I know you'll pull this off just as well, if not better than your other customs. Best of luck! :)

[@PerfectRequiem]

Looking forward to seeing how this goes

[@RobotJeeg]

This will be awesome! No idea how you will be able to model such a strange and complicated ms. Those ball joints seems to be in plastic...strange. I though that aftermarket joint were all in the same rubber as policaps.

"ALmost looks like a twinkie with a camera eye on it" LOL, can't unsee now…thanks Vegeta!

[@kurono67]

i'd buy the heck out of this if bandai made one

[@GundamMeister807]

Your Scratch built Models look better and better. I'm looking forward to the Review of this guy. Btw sin you built the Virgos, have you considered building the Scorpio MS/MA from "Battlefield of the Pacifists"?

[@rileybear253]

[@D42h0ut]

[@michaelmills3898]

You should try selling resin casts of your scratch builds you could make some nice money

[@jasonpun7015]

I don't think he does it for money but for his joy

[@Anhnoles]

they should really make a 144 of all these awesome looking mobile suits

[@Cohgio]

Cant wait for the final prodect

[@AgaiLazen]

I'm new to using pla-plate and I suck horribly at it. How did you get these boxes from a flat sheet of plastic?

[@Rikmenda]

What is plaplate? Forgive the stupid question, never heard of it before. is it Styrene sheets?

[@elijahagustin3948]

Yes its polystyrene sheets or in short pla plate

[@ricardomendanha8059]

[@MisterSouji]
