This the season to be jolly lalalala~~

Alright, finally I've succumb to the evils of console gaming once again. Being a ex Sega fan, I was really disappointed with consoles from way back. Ever since my Megadrive, Sega Saturn, Dreamcast all went obsolete, I gave up after my Playstation 1 and went on to my PC.

So I went out a couple of days back and was deciding if I should actually get a Playstation 3. Well, I've waited long enough ever since its launch with its pitiful size of games, and so much promised games @ launch are still in development.. Then I went to my friend's place and play some Ninja Gaiden 2, and I was poisoned immediately !!!

Thus I went out the very next day and purchased a Playstation 3 slim =D
Didn't get many games, on a pretty tight budget.. But hey, its gonna be X'mas anyway! Hahaha!

I was kinda cursed with consoles.. So hey, don't blame me if the Playstation 3 dies!

And so I got a pretty companion among my dvd players in the living room... Thats where the only Full HD tv in the house is... Till I get 1 full HD tv in my room.. I will move it in.. Hopefully Santa will hear me and grant me a 60' Full HD tv.. Wishful thinking I know, but hey, hopes are what keep people alive :D

MG Hi Nu Gundam RX-93-V2 ! + Frosting :(

Shall not type too much. As you can see theres some frosting on the matt coat unfortunately :(
Theres a severe lack of poses as the feet is actually broken :(
Oh well. Hopefully next kit will be better... More pics after the jump.

Just A Little Teaser.

Had finish gloss coating it a couple of hours ago. Gonna have to wait another day before I matt coat it =D
More pics after the jump.

Almost Done! =D MG Hi Nu Gundam RX-93-V2 W.I.P Part 3

So it was a long long day today. Spent a total of 6 hours just on panel lining + sticking decals onto the kit alone. Took a few pics but the shading doesn't really show with my orange-ish table lamp....

I decided to make the shading more subtle too, because the previous destiny got a little bit to dark. Overall this kit was alot cleaner, though I still had a few hiccups along the way. Worst part was me destroying the shin plates on the kit, and the overly thick coating of paint which caused a rough surface :(

Some airbrushing WIP, with shading. Final coating of white not yet applied.

Final coat of white applied.

Without decals

Love this Amuro Ray decal. Looks so cool!

Almost done with everything. Just need a final coat of gloss coat. Another day for it to cure, and finally a matt coat =D So near, I can virtually smell it..

Will be back sometime in the week for the completed kit =D Plus action poses... Till then!

The "One Piece" Gundam

Ok so I haven't been blogging much recently. Why? Well, cause I am busying finishing up my MG Hi V gundam. Just that I don't have my camera with me and I've manage to sprain my wrist a few days back during weekly soccer :(

 I managed to grab a cheap MG Crossbone Ver Ka. I've always loved the Version Ka. kits which I find very mech-like, just the way gundams should be ^^. Well while trying to finish my MG Hi V, which I manage to get kinda sick over, I'm trying to decide between starting on the MG Blue Frame 2nd ver, or the above, MG Crossbone Ver.Ka. Can't wait to do a ver.ka kit, but can't wait to try out candy glossing on the MG Blueframe. Problem with Blueframe is that I'll only be getting the waterslide decals at the end of December, whereas the waterslide decals for Crossbone arrived this morning ^^

Maybe I should concentrate more on MG Hi V since the purple shading came out pretty well, just a tad too dark overall...

Am suppose to get my camera back this weekend.. So might be able to update a little bit on my progress. I'm all but left with the white parts, panel lining and I'll be trying my very first attempt on applying waterslide decals on my MG Hi V....

Till then ^^

Distractions.

Gotten my MG Blue frame last night. Gonna try and emulate Gundampro's color scheme. Would be my first attempt trying out candy coat. I figured if it doesn't work i would just use mettalic blue :D








On second thoughts, distraction not being from gunpla. But gunpla is my form of distraction to take my mind off stuff. I realized it is one of the most effective methods since its so time consuming plus the failures/successes that comes with it is very satisfying indeed.

Time is very forgiving itself. Many things can be healed through time and I believe all I need is just simply, more time...

PG00 Raiser by Asayume

Wow! I just love the paint job! Seriously I actually like the color scheme of PG 00 Raiser. The Gundam itself doesn't really impress me that much lol!

Profiles

 

Really love the paintjob! Shall keep this here as my target ^^

MG Hi Nu Gundam RX-93-V2 W.I,P Part 2

Just a small update on the stuff I did a couple of nights ago..

During the final stages of building, this is the 'fin'/'funnels' on the backpack, the connectors..

This is only 1/4 of it...

This is what i ended up with..

These parts are all too small, was thinking its gonna be a bitch to airbrush, so i came up with

 This time I decided on a different workflow. Instead of priming everything, coloring everything than finally topcoating everything, I decided to go by parts.

Firstly I will start off with the internal frame and silver parts of the kit. So I would primed all these, than color, than topcoat these before moving off to the other parts of the kit. Was wondering if this method would serve me better....

My first time airbrushing primer on instead of using aerosol cans. Save the environment perhaps. Best to minimize damage... I've always love primed kits.. so sexy =D
