VF-25F 1/72 Armored Messiah Alto Custom part 1

Gallery May 28, 2014 GN 3 Comments

I've had this kit since June last year, just sitting on my shelf waiting and waiting and waiting.... I'd previously built the VF-1 and had a bad time of it. I'm reliably informed the Macross Frontier kits are better, so I thought it time to give it a go.

1/100 MG Sengoku Astray

Gallery May 22, 2014 GN 9 Comments

Sengoku Astray is a nice, but not perfect kit. It's my first Gundam Build Fighters kit, and it's different enough with the emphasis on the special add-ons and design features to make it quite an interesting build.

The green metallic stickers behind the clear lenses stand out … Continue Reading ››

So for those of you not in Canada, it's Victoria Day so the kids are off school and needing something to do. There's always things they could be doing like tidying up, and to encourage that I told them they needed to have their desks in the craft room all cleaned up.Continue Reading ››

Now that most of the pieces have had their red paint effects complete, I decided to accent some parts with silver Gundam marker and black oil wash for the details.

Here they're getting a Future Finish top coat. I want the red pieces to be glossy to … Continue Reading ››

1/100 MG Sengoku Astray part 2

Gallery May 17, 2014 GN 3 Comments

For the red pieces (and there's lots of them) I'm going with a similar scheme to the darker red pieces of my Sazabi. I used the black gloss Alclad undercoat to begin with and then a very light coat of Createx pearl red.

When the pearl red … Continue Reading ››

I started this build a couple of weeks back and then got busy with other things (work, kids, life etc.) and I also managed to lose one of the sword handle pieces which annoyed me so much I didn't feel like doing Gunpla. Anyway, I've done a bit more work on the white armour pieces. Undercoat … Continue Reading ››

Fancy a Sazabi on your desktop? I did, so I made these up from the photo shoot I'd done with the kit, and sorta paid homage to the box artwork with the larger image in the background. Enjoy!

1/100 MG Guntank

Guntank is mostly complete, and because I'm away for a week on business, I thought I'd grab some quick pictures to show.

The arms are one of my favourite areas. They're well detailed and have good articulation. The simple grey colour scheme works well with the Tamiya … Continue Reading ››

I'm really impressed by the level of detail on the frame of Guntank.

Especially these sections that hold the track wheels.

I went with brass for the wheels, which … Continue Reading ››

For a change of build, I decided to go with MG Guntank next. After waiting 0079 though with the kids, I really began to appreciate some of the designs, and bought MGs of Guntank, Zeong and Gouf.

The Guntank has a surprising level of detail on its … Continue Reading ››
