  1. Trying out 2 new things tonight. 1. Robot Kai's paint bottles ( love 'em and will be ordering 25 more.) 2. for the first time in a long time, airbrushing my primer instead of spray cans! Using black surfacer 1500 thinned 1:1.5 paint:thinner. This should allow less paint thickness and prevent allow me to do my black-basing in one go. Decided to fix everything to the craft. Last time I left parts separate and the tonality differences between the assemblies was a pain to hide/correct. More masking downside. Going tri-tone with free hand color separations for this one! Cleared for takeoff One Five Four!
  2. F I N A L L Y P-Bandai will get my money this year! MG Stark Jegan! https://www.gundamkitscollection.com/2022/11/p-bandai-mg-1100-stark-jegan-release.html
  3. Funny enough, splatter effects are what I want to add/try on mine this round. https://www.aviationmegastore.com/en/modelling/airbrush-template-set-airbrush-stencils-for-spraying-stains-set-a-propeller-77-prp007-171316.html
  4. Woot! "<Estimated Shipping Begin Date: Nov. 29, 2022(Tue.)> After your order is shipped out, you will receive [PREMIUM BANDAI] Shipment Completion Notification email. Please check the email for details. dMETAL ROBOT SPIRITS <SIDE MS>GUNDAM DEATHSCYTHE HELL"
  5. A few corrections left. Mainly on the visor for the RIO and the rubberized coating on the forward pilot's helmet. Those mishaps fixed results in the base colors being done. Next on to shading, detailing, washes- the fun parts! Before the next kitty, I'll need to invest in some new even finer brushes.
  6. Well- this show ended up being a pleasant surprise. A bit weird pacing at after the mid point following a time skip bit, extremely well done first half with an ost that is straight nova.
  7. So like reason 1 million, 9 hundred, and 9 thousand to get into 3d printing.
  8. Bandai has it listed in their 9/30/22 date. https://bandai-hobby.net/site/hobbyshow2022/
  9. Eduard SPACE int decals compared to the Quinta I did last time. The Eduard ones are much thinner but less of a 3D effect. I also dilike the metallic gain everything has. However, the major plus being they include some PE parts for things like the emergency/ejection release handles.
  10. You'll have to wait a couple more days to find out. That image of WZC is identical to the current Metal Build from the sculpt to the colors and marking. Hopefully it is just a place-holder image.
  11. Reworked a GFFMC Wing Ka. The chipping is a bit much for me bit, I like the cleanup, panel lining, detail painting and display base. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhW0i6oOlK4
  12. Personally I also believe a lot of the issue is also how much crap they are making. Every month there is some new limited color, version of a kit eating up time on the production lines. Instead of just having a few new kits in production they are also getting delayed by their obligations for the special edition kits and recolors they owe each gundam base and commercial promotional tie-ins.
  13. 1/60 Metal Structure Sazabi for this December https://www.gundamkitscollection.com/2022/07/metal-structure-160-sazabi-release-info.html?showComment=1658501224046&m=1
  14. The prologue that just released is an ova/ona episode. The series broadcasts drop later this fall. Prologue episode (open the video in new window and read the description) Completly forgot about that version of Vidar. Used to only seeing the FM 1/100 design the follow up was burried.
  15. Pre-4th push to clear off the table before the party. One. Last. Push. Kit was missing the 3 of the little weapons attachment mounts so a little styrene, a drilled hole, some paint and "Voila!" Waiting on the rain to stop and then were off to final topcoat and just the base. So ready to move on.
  16. 'Cause that is the lame pose China has for the statue it is based on. Why they don't just make the statue's arms (on any of them) support a hollow rifle and shield (or beam sabers) so they don't look so weird IDK. I'm guessing it is something to do with guns and children so they omit them.
  17. Just a heads up, you can buy Self-Etch bare metal primer at and auto parts store if you need it. Much mor economical than buying Mr. Color's tiny cans and shipping them. Mist on a coat, and then paint as normal. If your airbrushing besure to clean that gun after each use too!
  18. I really want that IWSP but, only of I could track down a Rouge. Strike Noir should be interesting. The MG Noir amd Aile are very different in the limbs even if the design is similar. Would do well to set up Akatsuki too!
