the gloves are fully movable too!! ^^ jus dun expect him to take photos using a camera. XD

Raiser wings are going on.. so cool. it rotates ard the pole you see before..

using the camera as a mirror for clive to adjust the details.. i think. or he maybe jus taking photos and im thinking too much. XD

00 Raiser Gundam

This is the real thing.. Right in front of my very eyes.. it is a very impressive suit. although he can only take small steps, its amazing he could even move!!! that's alot of hard work and patience.. VERY WELL DONE CLIVE. SALUTE!!! i think you'll be an idol to a lot of cosplayers out there.. okays.. as a response to clive's calling.. he's asking for pple to cosplay as ZAKU-IIs as a World Zaku March day all ard the world. i think he has the guide on how to make your own Zaku cosplay published somewhere in cosplay.com, im not sure where.. but sure to search for it.. Design and make ur own Zaku.. earliest by the end of next year 2010, and he'll arrange for a Zaku March.. Every country will have only One Red Comet that represents Char and unlimited amt of diff grunt Zaku IIs. so there mus be consensus between the players.. this meeting is so DAMN cool.. im alr itching to make my own Zaku suit... ^^ will bring in more updates if i see it.. i still cant find the zaku guide..

hope you enjoyed the photos... i still have one last part to cover to the end of AFA 2009 report! ^^ and exactly one more week to JLPT EXAM!!! YIKES!!!! im surprised i can still be here posting.. XD so.. take care everyone.. and dun like the comp virus bite! thanks for reading again! =)
