THE CRIMSON COMET

I declare August as the great hobby month! I have never posted so frequent in a while. Going in a bit of hiatus seemed to do good for my kit make craving. KR really Rider Kicked my heart to pump more Pla blood. Now, WIP 02 start! The braces again served to be another pit stop. Slowed my progress down. Painting the etches really was a pain but proved worth it. Straight forward building the arms LOL Kam- Rid- Cyc- Jok- KR W Manananggal  Driver! W's Double Driver Cyclone Joker Gaia Memories Legs. Go figure what's missing :p Rubbery feel on the foot's sole Last but not the least. Painstakingly hardiest to paint! ...Complete! Review soon! Already started taking photos. Stay tuned :)

Blog is pretty much alive for August! Rocking a new loot for the recent expo trip is an MG Kamen Rider W Cyclone Joker. Haven't seen the series but saw W in action with Dekeido's crossover movies. Now let's proceed with KR W Cyclone! Joker! HEEEENSHIN! Box size is normal for an MG. Art sports the built kit inside which is new since MG Gundam is drawn. No problems though, it still look kickass awesome! Runners total are what you expect from a humble MG. KR's a human figure to boot and judging from the manual it is comparable to an HG-ish build. A bit disappointed with the amount of foil stickers. Painted the shoulder brace with a Gundam Marker (not the best I've done to be honest lol. The lazy boy inside got the best of me). What keeps me from progressing to another piece is top coating the green parts with gloss. Here showing a trick I picked up from the "Gundam Fans na Pinoy" Facebook group. Hair drying the painted piece immedia...

Expos have been that fuel to my hobby and this one's no different. Though this targets the younger audience - Gundam, figs, and a plethora of hobby materials are pale or are no where in sight, I still enjoyed the experience! Grats to TK for bringing an event. I just hope your prices would be more reasonable! :p Here are a few photos to feast you're eyes.  Sorry for the sub-par quality. Used my trusty phone to nab the pics. Sweet! ♥ Awesome die-cast collection scene TF - been drooling to collect the merch Lego on a whole different level from what I remember. Whoa! Lego-ized Luke VS Boba Fett Ilocos in Lego World The trip gave me the urged to build something familiar but..... NEW. SD Destiny should wait (yet again), so as my SD Nu. No black paint still. SD's would be put on hold. For now, I am having a blast building KR W Cyclone Joker. Hihihihi... WIP will be posted ...

WIVSP - Work In Very Slow Progress That's the world where I'm at. A long weekend up ahead and it's boring the hell out of me! Would have wanted to have a gloss black base coat to make the metallic finish more prominent but yeah - I was bored and this has been sitting for quite a while now under the bed. Quick look on my progress TOA's gloss white sticks more than Bosny's. Originally planned to test out seam line removal. I guess I didn't/don't have the patience. Everything looks perfect for the head Metallic finish is really growing on me. Will be going glossy for a while :) Liking how the red shines. Ahh crap I miss my red Exia A futile attempt what it's like before / after painting. For those who haven't noticed, Destiny's head, right arm, and right leg are painted. You're welcome. Tried to get the angle where the colors would pop out. Didn't bother to set up my photo booth. Yes,...
