nice kit, nice weathering…
subtle and fitting for the implied operational environment. one of the first times i’ve seen (or maybe just simply noticed) an example of using metallics to give the effect of paint wearing through to bare metal. definitely looks good against the darker colors of the ecoas jegan
thanks for sharing!
If you enjoyed the ARF then you should definitely look into some of the other RGs. While not all as articulate once completed, they’re extremely fun builds.
Yeah, I enjoyed this kit allot. honestly. I was loosing the interest on the hobby, but this kit reminded me how fun and rewarding this hobby can be, I’ll try other RG’s for shure, and as I said I really hope Bandai one day release the big bad guys on RG form.
Excellent work. You can build only so many stocks before you get bored. Try to spice things up. Like changing the color schemes, adding custom decals & metal parts, weathering, taking a break, branching out into non-Bandai kits, or even other kinds of kits. If i have the time & money, I’d get the entire RG collection. IMO, RG is a waste since the…[Read more]
yes, I do all that, follow the link to my blog and check out my other stuff, if you look closely to the logicoma, it is fully painted, weathered and with custom decals. Nowadays I rarely build a bandai kit, they usually bore me or annoy me, but this RG Astray was simple and fun. I didn’t do weathering on this kit because of the stickers, which is…[Read more]
No, by stock I didn’t mean no painting, but painting as the instructions say, to the letter. No color change. No modding. No kitbashing. No custom parts. Like stock cars, they bore me to no end. I can see ’em on the streets, why would I build ’em? Race cars & bikes, on the other hand, are a different topic.
I totally don’t get RG’s reasoning. If…[Read more]
The first two MGs the ReZEL Type C Defenser A+B Unit GR colors and the Sinanju OVA are not recently finished kits but I’ll post them here anyway because I haven’t done so yet…
MG 2.0 Zaku I resin conversion complete 😛
Resin kit was purchased off taobao from the original caster, sadly out of print now.
Frame used is an MG 2.0 Chars Zaku II
Inner…
HGBF Gundam Portent.
Fully painted according to the manual except the frame in Tamiya Gunmetal and the yellow parts in Mr Color laquer Super Gold with Alclad II Black Gloss Base.
I also did the One Point Technic with a holographic sheet.
just finished a rg chars zaku II i touched it up with a little metalic paint specifically copper silver and aluminium . i also just finished a rg strike freedom which i also touched up with some gold some blue and a tint bit of red
Well, don’t think it’s official yet, but it looks like the next RG is going to be from Wing series, like what originally had anticipated. However, instead one of the rest of the four gundams, it’s going to be another Wing, XXXG-01W. Hopefully it’s more than just swapping the feather wings and few pieces. Wonder if it can be transformed…..
I am pretty new to Gunpla, with only 3 completed kits under my belt. I am building a PG Red Frame atm. But Gunpla has rocketed into first place of all my hobbies, and I will be building alot in the future.
Those are three pretty looking kits! Build the PG Red Fame myself and I know you’re enjoying it at the moment.
If I may add, you’ve got an excellent taste in suit designs.
Good luck and happy building!
