Bandai HG 00 Raiser Condenser Type

Bandai HG 00 Raiser Condenser Type - WIP 01

Finished everything and this post was due yesterday. Sorta busy so I guess a day late ain't that bad (considering I was gone for almost a month) >:D

This is my entry to G-SHOT's straight build category. Nothing fancy in this build, just trying to clean as much nub marks with my hobby knife. No touch-ups, top-coat, and only panel lining is allowed for this cat so this 00 Raiser would be too plain for most. Even I cringe as this kit won't not get much attention. Worry not though since this very same kit will be my entry to the friendly HG competition at GFP on facebook.

Box shot (Love it)

Building this kit is pretty straight forward. No mess and its rock solid from in and out.

Compared to my TT Hongli HG 00 7s/G's head, the panel lines are deep and detailed. I expect nothing less from Bandai of course

Didn't bother with the foil stickers as the competition in GFP (mod and paint are allowed) is my top priority.

Legs too are rock solid

...And putting it all together

Ore Wa......~

It's around 70% complete. All that's left are the 0 Raiser and weapons. (50% for GFP's HG build-off since I will be painting the whole kit. STOP BEFORE I SPOIL THE BEANS).

PS.

Told you I wasn't slacking off! >:p

QY SD Shining Gundam - Mini WIP, Assembly Cure and Review

It has been a while since the last time I blogged. Reality bites and I have to focus on the "more important things in life." Work, girlfriend, and of course going outdoors - a much needed "distraction" to regain my appetite for GunPla. In all honesty my interest has gone downhill and the promised TT Hongli MG Sinanju is nothing more of a plan than a work-to-be-done. There will always be the GunPla itch so I picked this teeneeweenee SD that caught my eye. Welcome to the club, Shining Gundam!! To start off, the box. Runners - 5 in total along with the polycaps Issue 01: See the yellow fin attached to the head? Don't force to plug it in. You'll only damage the plastic. Shave off the little opening to fully accommodate the fin. Repeat it on the other side. Issue 02: The usual suspect in QY kits. What I did was shave the male connectors with my hobby knife. Head done! Notice I used the foil stickers. It's not that I was too lazy to paint the eyes, b...

Bandai SD Zeta Karaba Assault - WIP 01

Coming from a competition really fired my GN Drives up! I am now onto my 1st WIP of 2012, SD Zeta! This 2-pack kit was actually bought before I even knew about the GFP competition. But G-SHOT and the 1/144 Challenge came along and the fun and excitement was too hard to pass up! I initially thought of doing Zeta in its accurate colors. Watching Gundam AGE really blew me and I fell in love with white MS's particularly seeing how the G-EXES pawns the UE. Right then and there I decided to try something different, something that I've never tried before (well, sort of). BTW, if you've never encountered the Zeta Karaba Assault it sorta looks like this ~ It is a limited edition color scheme of the MG Zeta V2. The Karaba Assault was piloted by the White Unicorn AKA Amuro Ray. (Photo above is NOT mine. Thank you GundamPH for the reference. Visit his site too. There are a lot of GunPla, mech, and other anime-related cool stuff there to see) Upon straight building this dude, I ...

Bandai RG RX-78-2 Gundam - Review

The much anticipated (and delayed) review of my RG RX-78-2! I broke the chest piece when I was applying some finishing touches on the kit. Crap it was a nightmare! When the piece snapped into two I couldn't hold back and yelled NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! That serves another lesson for me. Never EVER force yourself into working with half-assed consciousness. Weeks came by and I was able to get in touch with someone who has a spare RG RX-78-2 kit. Viola, my kit is RESTORED! Onto the review, here's the RX-78-2 in its Real Grade Excitement Embodied glory Ah, the Real Grade. Stressing color separation. The attention given to the details of RG kits is just plain awesome! The different shades of white, red, and blue is fantastic. Showing off some articulation here, kneeling poses are a bit better than the RG Char Zaku. Goes to show that top notch engineering with a mini-skirt design Gundam works! That's Amuro by the way :p Will paint...
