MG Unicorn Gundam WIP #1

Well I'm leaving for vacation soon which means I can't build anymore gundams. I guess I could post pictures of my trip but I don't think anyone wants to see that.
I was bored over the weekend, as well as sick so I decided to start my MG Unicorn gundam.
I painted the psycho frame the lazy way so it doesn't look 100% like I want it to but it's pretty close to it!
I've gotten most of the inner frame done and the shield. I've started on the chest but I don't have any pictures of that yet.

Nub mark removal and panel lining tutorial

Hello everyone! My friend, Raiku541, just got into gunpla and I decided to start posting picture tutorials for him.
Today I'll be doing a tutorial on how to remove pieces from the runner or tree and the method I use to remove the nub marks. Also, I'll be showing one of the many methods of panel lining.
I'll be using a piece from my RG Destiny Gundam kit because it's one of the only things I have access to at this very moment.

RG Destiny Gundam WIP #1

Good morning!
I know it's been an extremely long time since I last posted something. That's because I've been really "busy" not building any Gundams. I couldn't find a job to earn money for an airbrush so I decide to leave all my MGs until later. I've decided just to work on the RG line.

I recently bought the RG Destiny Gundam kit and I've started building it. Again, I'm very impressed by the RG detail, it looks so good but it took me almost all day just to build a wing.

I've gotten lazy with my photography too so don't be butt hurt by bad pictures, but the quality should suffice for a work in progress post.

HG 1/144 RX-0 Unicorn Gundam [Destroy Mode]

After weeks of putting off doing my decals, I'm finally done!

Thoughts on my work:
-I think the paint on the Psycho frame could have been better and some parts could have been cut better.
-The decals were pretty well, I could have put more on but I really didn't want to because I'm lazy.

Overall the Unicorn came out pretty well. The decals look amazing and so does the green Psycho frame.

HGUC Gundam Unicorn WIP (w/ bonus Armed Armor DE)

Hello!
Spring/Summer semester has started for me now, I'm going to try to post every Sunday the work I finish throughout the week. 
For this project I'm working on, I used metallic paint for the Psychoframe. I decided to sacrifice the clear see-through look for a shiny metallic look instead. It looks good and because I don't know how to paint see through parts.. 
I think it turned out quite well even though my painting skills are horrible. 
All I have left to do is to put on the water slide decals I bought with it and I'll be done. I'll try out using a gloss topcoat to see what it looks like. 

The reason I bought this kit was because I wanted to try out changing the color of the Psychoframe. 
I liked the turn out of the color so I painted my Armed Armor DE as well. 
Armed Armor DE! Ready for when I finish my MG Unicorn Gundam

Nu Gundam Ver Ka

Hello!
I finally got off my butt and finished my Nu Gundam... Two weeks ago.. I'm not that late..
My last exam is on the 24th so once I finish all my exams I can get back into building.
I have too many Gundams sitting in my closet waiting for me.


Well I'm too lazy to post all 89 images that I took for this so here's a link!

This kit was very well made, except for the fact that the fin funnels have extreme weight issues and don't stay connected very well. They fall off way too easily. Also, the double funnel expansion I ordered has come and but I've yet to pick it up so I'll probably be finishing that some time during the spring/summer.

Zeta Gundam Update

Hi everybody!
This post should have been done earlier this week but I've been too lazy to go onto blogger.
It's just more work done on my RG Zeta Gundam.
I totally did not break the v-fin...
Pictures of my progress are after the jump!

Duel Gundam!

I built my Duel Gundam last July and I was trying to paint the assault shroud but I ran out of paint so I mixed in black paint. Instead of the normal looking blue, I ended up with some grungy grey color but whatever, I think it looks good.



I've been so busy for the last few days with lab reports and midterms but I did have enough time to squeeze some Gundam building in. I was looking around on the Internet and I found some models that had their vents painted silver and it looked pretty good. I tried painting the vents on various parts on my Duel Gundam and I'm liking the results that I got. I should have taken more time when painting but I'm too lazy to mix my enamel paint and thinner together.
