Scale: 1/24

This AV98 Ingram Patlabor comes from an unknown manufacturer. Its a resin kit I picked up about 5 years ago and had been sitting for 4 of them unbuilt because it came with 2 left legs. Not knowing the manufacturer I couldnt get a replacement. I decided to saw the extra leg off at the knee and rotate the hip to make it useable. I think it looks good considering and unless you're really loking for it you don't see it.

I'm amazed at the details in the kit. Behind the green lenses on the head is a full sensor suite, it almost made me not want to put the lenses in but you can still make out the details. I fell in love with the texture of the olive drab riot armor and it responded excellently to a multi-layer wash and drybrush session.
