1950s Mech

This is another mech build that is largely comprised of clear plastic baubles.

This time around I’ve gone a little 1950s-esque with the colour scheme.  I wanted to do something that might not look out of place in the Fallout universe.

I really like this teal/blue colour and have used it on several projects now. It reminds me of American cars from the 1950s.

The orange adds a really nice contrast.

I also added some internal LED lighting to give it abit of life.

The model is largely made out of clear plastic baubles which I moulded into a single shape by smoothing out the gaps with car body filler. I added cast resin pieces for detailing.

The hand was made by making a mould of a single finger and then casting up multiple copies.

The gun turrets in the chest move and can be posed. They’re held in place by magnets.

Here’re some videos covering the build.
