That Pencil I used to own like 3 to take notes with lol XD

How’re the results with Pencil Lining?

That’s a nice shade of gold. What brand did you use for it? I got a hunch, but I could be wrong.

Tamiya Gold Leaf.

I’m liking what I’m seeing so far. You’re using the exact same colors that you used on your base, am I right?

You would be correct.

Seems to be a surprisingly good metallic paint, pain to clean out of the airbrush though, or if the mix just a smidge too thick and having to give a quick blast into the exhaust fan.

Giving it the Kirara paint job too?

Yeah, as soon I find suitable colors for her type of pink, but only after I address the Kampfer and “That other project” 😀

Kiraran!

It’s playing “Gunpla the World” in my head right now.

Then my sinister plan is already working, lol XD

Dammit, mine too…now. Thanks a lot!

I am loving those shades of Blue man. And the rifle looks excellent.

Haha, actually, I haven’t painted this kit yet. This is the one I’m planning to try digital camo on. A bit more fixes on welds and then I can prime by the weekend.

That is one sick kit bash for the rifle you’ve got there, D! Even better that it doesn’t look like the rifle’s weighing down the supporting arm any 😀

How did you make the rifle? Anyway looks good. I want to get that kit when it’s in stock at my online store.

That looks great. The gun fits the GM suit so well, you could’ve fooled me if you said that it came with the kit originally.

Certainly fooled me. I thought you had painted it already. But a digital camo sounds like it would look fantastic on that Sniper.

Thanks, man! The rifle is pretty light, only slightly heavier than the standard rifle. It helps a ton that the GM Sniper II’s arms have solid joints. The only thing that may sag is the ball-joint for the trigger hand, but some primer and paint can fix that easily.

I cut out the handle/stock from standard rifle (since it’s the key for having it usable without issue with the kit), fused it to the Gelgoog rifle you can build with the 1/144 System Weapon 002 set with the handle/trigger sawed off, then sawed off the front barrel portion of the Gelgoog rifle and fused in the barrel from a System Weapon 001 Zaku…[Read more]

Thank you, good sir. I honestly think this rifle is one of my rare strokes of genius so I’m really proud of it and how it came out. Hopefully the transitioning area I made with Apoxie Sculpt between the handle and receiver comes out good when I prime.

The tiny trigger area was a b*tch, though. Had to fix the area three times before settling on…[Read more]

I guess that’s the magic of a bright photo, haha. That and this place doesn’t allow for anything higher-res without external links. I’m going attempt the digital camo on a spoon first and make sure I got the methods down. I’m switch to all lacquer paints on this so any screw-ups will take more time to fix.

Oh wow. That is pretty genius!

Looks like that will keep you busy for a while, and belated Happy Birthday wishes.

Happy Birthday! You have a good Gunpla but an even better set of friends 😛

Happy birthday man!

happy beer day chapel! or born day if you don’t like beer lol. those are some good friends you got.

Happy birthday. Got yourself a mighty fine haul too.

Beer is a vital mainstay and called “Talent Juice” in the circles I mingle with XD And yes, they rule. I think one though is riding the euphoric high of her recent promotion and that’s why this wound up happening. Not that I’m complaining, lol XD

Many happy returns. And fine Gunpla choices!

Yeah, although most of them are familiar territory for me. I already helped build an HG Sengoku for a friend, I actually still own my MSiA Sazabi, and the Spiegel is only unique in a cosmetic sense, since all the Fighting Action MG’s share the same internal skeleton. The only one that’s really “new” is the Geara Zulu, which I look forward to…[Read more]

Happy late birthday. Great kits. It’s nice to see something from G Gundam. You usually don’t see those kits around these days.

Yeah, BanDai was really kind to the G-Gundam fans early by giving us 4 of the most important kits in MG form, but it would be great if they’d give the other Shuffle alliance members some needed HG love on the 1/144 scale, or at the very least make a 1/100 Rising Gundam since it already shares many of the parts with the MG Shining >.>

A good deal of weapons there for that Unicorn. That’s going to keep you a busy for a while, haha.

Got myself a pair of side clippers this weekend, don’t know how I got by with a pair of small wire cutters all this time.

haha yeah totally busy with all of the extra equipment! I actually thought of getting another shield armor during the time I purchased the haul. But I decided to save it for the Full Armor. But yeah, I’m definitely stoked for the redux project. I’ve learned so much since then. And now with an airbrush in hand, I can refine it.

Ever worked with nail clipper? haha, that’s how I started. It cuts clean but a challenge to use because of its design.

So what side clipper did you end up getting?
