Hello everyone, I just want to ask a quick question that maybe I missed or overlooked. What’s the criteria to judge? How will the winners be picked?
Thanks!
The criteria for judging is stated at the top of the page for each category.
For beginners, “Some panel-lines, decals, a touch of marker here or there and even hand painting is accepted.”
Winner are chosen by entering the contest correctly (see contest rules) and then staff at HLJ will pick the best out of the entries for the category. Link:…[Read more]
Hey dividesf, I picked it up at HLJ last year. Unless you are in Japan, you might have wait a year until HLJ or other online store restocks it, like I did.
More damage to the head and the stripped down knee, since I don’t want to do much painting I used a thick plate from one of the runners to fashion the knee and cut out the circle piece from the back of the spare torso back that came in the kit. Once they set I have a tiny bit more shaping to do.
This is going to be my final post on my ReZEL. I am glad with how the Kit turned out, apart for some hiccups. All I am missing is the release of the new HG Zeta Gundam so this collection looks more complete.
Three long winded question for either Syd, Todd or Anna to answer: (erm)
1. How are you going to judge big accessory parts or supporting mechs, (i.e. System Bases, Base Jabber, etc) if there are intended more for a background rather than the main entry?
2. The closing date for the contest doesn’t specify a specific time when we have enter our…[Read more]
They will just move your entry to the correct category and they will not notify you of it. They will judge your entry on the basis of the category they believe you should be.
Great choice for choosing the Graze since most IBO kits have interchangeable parts. I have built the Graze and its variants more thing 30 times so if you got any questions about modifications, feel free to ask me. Good luck man!
The blue parts closest to the chest on the shoulder armor, are they stickers or actually individual parts? I never built the Hugo and I am debating whether I am going to pick it up.
Those are stickers and they go on both the front and back. I was hesitant on the Hugo also but it’s a nice HG kit. It’s different in a good way and rather tall due to it’s interested legs and feet design.
I am glad that you choose it since it is a change of pace from all the Gundam Type entries I have seen so far. It feels fresh. Mind you my entry is semi gundam looking :p.
Hmm.. I can’t really think of anything else. I may do another kit for Intermediate though. It’s just that the rules for beginners states about stickers, panel lines, and some hand painting and I’ve done all of that.
