I recently became interested in mecha musume and custom figures, so I ended up buying two figmas of kuroneko from ore no imouto ga konna ni kawaii wake ga nai and I turned one of them into a mech girl (although it didn't turn out as I had planned, it did turn out pretty close to it) using some spare 1:144 scale gundam model kit parts.
pictures:
for the arms I used the arms from gundam deathscyth hell, as for the legs I used the legs from gundam nataku, and for her sword I used a cocktail skewer/sword.
I had originally planned on only using half the arm and having the other half be the arm of the figma but the joints were too tight and I didn't want to risk breaking them so I decided on a full arm swap (the only thing I don't like about the arms is that the shoulder parts had to come off because her hair got in the way).
as for the legs I had originally planned on using the legs from gundam altron but I ended up using gundam natakus legs instead.
All in all I like the way she looks so far but she's still somewhat a work in progress, but for now I think I'll just leave her as is.

I totally forgot
I had wanted to put more posts up and actually contribute to this blog but I totally forgot about it, but I will try to actually do something with this blog even if it is only one post a month I'll do something.
