Bad lighting and poor camera quality are the main cause. Better resolution pics on my FB page. I hear what you are saying about the decals blending into the background on clear kits, but i really enjoy the effect it gives.
I saw a picture months ago where someone put the Build Booster MkII onto the Pale Rider. I decided to do the same, but painted and have the arms for the Arms Pack to be longer. Tell me what you guys think.
Just finished my hi-nu ver ka ,I was going to change the color but kept it because I don’t have purple kits , did pretty much a straight build with panel lining and some 3rd party waterslides
I just recently finished my RG Mk-II. Instead of the original color scheme, I decided to try the original, typical lead Gundam color scheme which I think looks nice, but the dark blue look is probably better. It is also my first time playing with Tamiya weathering pigments. Might have been a bit over done, but definitely learned a lot!
I just finished my 2 NG 1/144 SUMOs from Turn A Gundam. I want to show them off but I can’t upload them, so I’ll have to post a link. If I can unload more in the sure I will. This is only part 1 of my SUMO…[Read more]
Thanks mate.
There were two in the show, but I got two with the intention of repainting one yellow. But then a found a yellow one and bought it. I was going to do something with the extra white one but was too lazy.
You should watch Turn A. It’s very slow to start but once you give it a chance it’s a great series.
Nothing fancy this time around but every collection need one! The classic GM! All I need now is the GM2 and the family will be complete. GM with GM3 for comparison.
Just finished the mc sd hi nu it was a good little build and a whole lot more detailed than bandai sd hi nu plus it had like 12 sprues about 3 times the bandai hi nu, I guess now its time for the mg ver ka sitting in the box on my self
Yes it’s nice and smooth and not to thin you have to press harder than bandai to get the pieces together but it was better than I expected other knockoffs I’ve done before have a grainy look to the plastic but this kit was good and I just got the model comprehend hg XI gundam and the plastic looks really good on it too ,I haven’t put it together…[Read more]
Just finished my first Diorama! Master Grade RB 79 Ver Ka as Construction Pod. I wanted to portray it in a sort of repair situation with the beautiful inner frame exposed….
Very nicely done! Love the weathering on the ball. Even the thrusters are beautifully weathered. If I may ask, how did you perform the paint chipping? Is it done using the hairspray technique or using a sponge? It looks really realistic. Again, great build!
Thanks! The chipping is grey painted on top of the base yellow with a torn section of dish sponge; the yellow portion of those ubiquitous yellow/green scrub ones. I then in-painted on some of the chips with a metallic color to give them a bit of depth.
I wanted to use the hairspray method, but my testing did not go well, so I went with my…[Read more]
