beam saber umbrella


I had some odd upgrade kit parts for a HG 1/144 gundam model but I ended up turning them into an umbrella. this is my version of a race queen, she is standing in front of my miniature (1/12 scale I think) kawasaki motorcycle, the figure was bought used off of ebay.

waiting for deliveries

deliveries can seem to take forever and they don't always have tracking and sometimes even if they do have tracking it isn't very good (doesn't update the details) and honestly I think this is a problem that should be fixed, in such a modern age getting packages shouldn't be such a hassle, I believe that there should be one universal mail delivery service, I know there are some that come close but i think there should be one system instead of countless faulty ones, but I suppose there would be issues with that as well, I guess these thoughts stem from the fact that I hate waiting for packages, but in this day and age where we have "next day delivery" and "overnight shipping" why are there even options that would take longer than a week?

1/144 mobile skeleton


inspired by the mobile flat, this kit is made up of parts mainly from hg 1/144 powered arms powereder and hg 1/144 skull weapon sets, this kit was easy to put together from the parts I had, it has extreme amounts of articulation and can be folded up into a flight/standby mode.

the mobile skeleton is a remotely controlled mobile worker mainly used for colony repairs/maintenance and removal of space debris, the head unit is filled with high powered scanners capable of scanning for signs of life as well as what material something is made of.

busou shinki (?) sky girls eika ichijo


eika ichijo from sky girls made by konami using the mms-01 (?) body type/style same as busou shinki, she is holding the gun from the hg 1/144 o gundam.

I bought this figure 2nd hand online and sadly she does not have her fishing rod, but on the bright side she is in perfect condition so I am happy.

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.
