Taking It All In

It is a beautiful Fall day here in SW PA.  Temps in the mid 50s.  Skies are blue.  There is that clean crispness in the air.  I had my rear deck enclosed over the summer.  It's now a 3 season room.  Turned on the portable heater and went out with the dog. We chilled out for a bit this morning.  I thought I'd share it with you all.  Take a gander.

With a Little Help From My Friends

Welcome Meka!  Meka is the two-legged mech piloted by Amber in Sucker Punch.  Meka (AKA Bunny) helps the girls defeat the German Army during a battle (WW1???) in the film.  I couldn't find an exact model so I transformed this Mantic Games Strider into one as best I could.  I couldn't find a "Bunny Face" decal to use so I painted the glass areas of the model a metallic pink as a homage.  I also added the pink bandana to "girly up" the model as well.  I kept the color scheme in the olive drab arena much like the one in the film.  The number 5 decal was added to the right side similar to the one in the movie.

This Meka comes with a flamethrower on the right and a chainsaw on the left.  There is also a pair of rockets on the side of the chainsaw.  While not an exact replica, this model looks the part.

Here some pics of "Meka /Bunny".  There is one with Amber and a friend they found on the battlefield.  Lastly, there is one of the whole team.  Coming soon:  Bad Guys...I mean really Bad Guys!
