Hi @syd you guys are so cool haven’t missed a episode yet i’m the only Gunpla Builder in my home town of laudium and I was born with only one hand but that wont stop me
Not sure if this is the best section to post these. I wanted to start documenting my work more professionally and make it into a photo book. My goal is to make books based on…
Nice set of photographs. Some of them seem underexposed though. Also, bumping up the contrast (+ clarity) and saturation (or vibrance) may help make them pop more. I use Lightroom in case you’re wondering.
If you can use a seamless background, it would look even more professional. What I mean is you can’t see the line where the table meets the…[Read more]
Hey thanks for the feedback I really appreciate it. I’ll take some of your ideas into consideration and I also want to pick up a tripod soon as well. These photos were a very spur of the moment idea I had using various things I had around the apartment to set up. I’ll pick up something to soften the light and also pull out my reflector to get some…[Read more]
I’m learning too as can be seen from my posted pics; every single one is photographed differently.
I bounce my flashlight off the ceiling to create a softer light. I have been using a 50mm lens. I should try my 150mm next time so I don’t have to stand so close to the object which hopefully will have shine a bit more light to the front. The white…[Read more]

Hi @ryan ..Just a quick suggestion..could I suggest that hlj.com add a wishlist option since sometimes when I’m browsing thru hlj.com I find things I wanted to buy but have to wait for payday…if the option exist I can always remember things I wanted to buy.thanks
You’re not the first person to request this. In one of the episodes they say that they are working on it, but had to resolve some other issues on the site first. Have to admit, this was almost a year back..
In the meantime, there is something out there that may help you in the meantime. It’s called a piece of paper and a pen… 😛
Last month, after attending the All Japan Model Hobby Show in Tokyo, the event venue was Tokyo Big Sight, which is in the area near Diver City, home to Gundam Front Tokyo. This is where the life-size Gundam is! It used to be located at Higashi Shizuoka Station, but was moved to Odaiba just before I moved to Shizuoka Prefecture nearly three years…[Read more]
It’s a ways out for release and I know you don’t often bring figures on the show, but it would be cool to see that Metal Damashii Hi-Nu on the show when it comes out since it’s a new line. Maybe compare it to a normal Damashii. If Metal Build is like the Soul Of Chogokin for Gundam,…[Read more]
Hey Syd and Ryan! I just got into this kick-butt hobby. I probably will wait a little
bit for the unicorn but it is a must have. Very thankful for your Gunpla tv.
