nothing to talk about this time

I'm sorry to say but I have nothing to share for this month, but hopefully I will have something cool to share next month (I am currently waiting for a package to arrive) and hopefully it will be something awesome.

1/144 hg super fumina

I was finally able to get a super fumina kit (I didn't pre-order it and when the actual release date came I found out she was already sold out everywhere online but I got lucky because a local store had gotten a few so I bought mine from them), I took my time and carefully assembled her, I used a fine point gundam marker (gundam pen?) to do the details for the eye lashes and the buckles on her shoulder strap thingys, also I used the leftover parts to create a custom stand (I combined them with  a base piece from a figma stand), and lastly I gave her a green beam effect piece for her beam saber (I chose a green one so it would match the rest of her effect parts).

this kit was an interesting build, the hardest part being the eye lenses as they are so tiny, I was soo excited to get this kit and I love it and even though there are some things that could have been better I wouldn't change her for anything, all in all I am really happy with how she turned out.

1/144 ag (advanced grade) age-3 normal

I bought this kit on a whim some time ago, I had the thought that it would be similar to a no grade but I was wrong as this kit has even less articulation than a 1/144 ng (no grade) gundam seed model, it has only 5 points of movement which are: the arms (the entire arm will rotate around 360 degrees with no joints anywhere except where it pegs into the body), the head (the head is on a stationary ball joint but still has a decent amount of movement (a little up and down, tilt side to side, and can be rotated 360 degrees around)), and the shoulder wings ((don't know what they are actually called) they go up and down (not sure if they are suppose to moved but they can be)). and as for everything else you are basically getting a statue as there is no torso movement or leg/foot movement at all, the gun can be removed as it is made up of only two pieces (a handle piece and a body/barrel piece).

the kit is really well detailed and looks very nice as well there are zero stickers used so every color is from a different piece of plastic (I personally really liked not needing stickers), this kit is probably good for beginners or someone whom wants to practice painting but doesn't want to spend a lot of money as these kits are pretty cheap to buy.

all in all I would say I like the kit as it looks nice on a shelf and it adds something a little different to my collection.

customized Phantasy Star Blue Burst RAcaseal: redria ver. APSY

I recently acquired two Phantasy Star Blue Burst RAcaseal model kits by kotobukiya, using the two kits I did some parts swapping to get the look I wanted and ended up with a pretty nice looking model kit.

the two kits I used were: Phantasy Star Blue Burst RAcaseal: redria ver. APSY and Phantasy Star Blue Burst RAcaseal: shino ver. APSY, I really like the way it turned out and I don't think I'll change anything, I am still debating whether or not to put her skirt armor on as I like the way she looks without it, also I made a custom stand for her mag.

1/144 ng (no grade) gundam seed model kit collection

this is almost all of my no grade kits, the only no grade kit not shown in this picture is my red frame astray gundam but aside from that this is my collection of 1/144 scale ng (no grade) gundam seed model kits.

from left to right: gunner zaku warrior [lunamaria hawke custom] and slash zaku phantom, strike dagger, bucue, sword strike gundam, duel gundam.

the two zaku's are knock off no grades (I think) and I have done some parts swapping on them, as well I have removed their back unit weapons, also the strike dagger is missing it's head antenna and beam saber handle (from the back unit).

wind up bots

I meant to post this sooner but I've been a little busy with various things, better late than never though I suppose.

I bought a slightly damaged camera (the case is split open and the battery compartment door doesn't close all the way due to damage (there is a broken/missing clip/peg piece that holds it shut)) some time ago and forgot I had actually used it to take this picture, I don't plan on using the camera again as it's kind of a piece of junk (low resolution and fairly damaged), but that aside; these are two wind up robots that I own, eventually I'd like to take more pictures of these little guys, but at the moment I have other things that I'm working on so taking more pictures of these can wait.

been too busy

this past month I have been really busy with a number of things, endless house related projects (I am soo tired of painting things in the house) as well as helping in the planning and preparation for an upcoming party (to celebrate my parents anniversary), so I have not had much time to do anything for myself, also I don't currently have a photography area set up so I am unable to take quality pictures.
hopefully next month I will have something I can share.
