Ian improved a Wave 1/20 scale SAFS Type R Raccoon with a scratchbuilt sensor array on the shoulder made from unused kit parts and added weld seams and cast texture to the armor on the Maschinen Krieger fighting suit. The camouflage is splotches of AK Interactive Real Color Chocolate Brown over a mix of Tamiya greens. “I added a 3D-printed teddy bear in his hand since the kit head had a bit of a smirk,” he says. “‘Echoes of the Past’ implies the guy in the suit found a teddy bear from ‘before.’ What that ‘before’ is, is up to the viewer.”
