Yellow disaster


Gaplant TR-5 [Hrairoo] (19/12/2008)

Took me 4 days to complete this guy. Firstly is the problem with the chrome yellow color, the yellow in the bottle is drying out and I discovered it too late. Fought with the bad paint for almost 1 day. Another reason is because of a family occasion.

I'm really impressed with the details under the skirt armor and amount of verniers of this kit. But its a bit heavy and flimsy when you start posing in. Transformation to fight mode is a hassle and I scratched off some paint while doing so. Had problem making it hold the long rifle as the rifle butt is kind of in the way.

Not really poseable but it looks nice just standing there.

Was broken


Aile Strike Gundam (2003/04?, 3/12/2008)

This kit was finished some time in 2003 or 2004. The unique thing I did to it was I sanded all the white parts giving them a matt surface. As usual went about playing and posing it. It was during one of these times that the hinge part of the right wing snapped. Tried to fix it but glue and cement are not strong enough. And so it goes into the box for quite a period of time.

Recently I ordered the runner containing the hinge part together with the GN Pistols runner from HLJ and finally got it fixed. Went around posing it (carefully) and took some pics of it. Theres two short 4-frames in the gallery too.

GN Beam Pistols


Dynames' GN Beam Pistols (3/12/2008)

The Dynames kit itself is the same kit fixed up early this year but with a touch up coat for the grey parts. Ordered the runner that has the pistol parts from HLJ back in October, turned out to be pretty pricey.

Anyway just fixed it up a few days ago and after that as usual went photoshooting crazy on it.
