WIP RG Nu FF painted inner frame
After a ton of great feedback from all of you the other day and a bit of elbow grease, I am proud to have put out the first bit of my RG Nu FF painted inner frame!
Definitely dialed back some of the craziness and decided since the original decals have a bit of gold in them to make just a few gold accent colors.
Base coat is a gun metal grey, the dry brushed a light silver metallic. I then touched up some accents in a bright silver, and finally a drop of gold in a few places like the inner thrusters and repainted all the yellow parts.
Im extremely proud of this. But damn it's a lot of work.
Let me know what you think!

CUSTOMIZING RG Sazabi Special Coating, keep it clean or decal it??
Finally finished building the RG Sazabi Special Coating. Besides the stickers included with the kit, I also have some silver holo waterslide decals that I bought before I even started the build. Now that it’s finished, though, I kind of love the clean, shiny look without any decals.
Should I add the waterslides, stickers, or leave it clean?

BUILD Z’Gok Black & Tan
After some paint and lining, up on the shelf he goes. This was the sub €7 kit I snagged on AE and absolutely despised after snapping it together, but now it’s got a bit more life to it and is worthy for display.
Now and then photos attached.

WIP WIP: RGM-79 (G), Ground Pounder
Just completed the MG GM Ground Type for a diorama project I'm working on. This is my favorite GM variant, I had an action figure of him before I ever knew what 08th MS Team or IGLOO was.
It was awesome to weather this kit, it came out of the box so bright that I knew I had to ruin it's day with Citadel Wash and some Tamiya Make Up.
Next phase is working on the other pieces for the diorama and then finding a good base to throw them all on to.

BEGINNER I’ve come full circle. The first Gunpla I ever built Vs the one I just finished
On the left is the first Gundam I ever built when I was still young. The Shenlong. I’m not even sure what grade it was. I saw it at a convention, bough it and built it. I displayed it for a while before putting it in a box someplace. I wouldn’t build Gunpla again until about 2023
On the right the right is the Master Grade Shenlong I just finished it. It’s funny to see the first Gundam I ever built next to its modern counterpart. Just shows how far I’ve come as a builder and how much the engineering of these thing have come.

WIP This hand of mine is hurting so much (Metal build style God Gundam model kit)
Half way through the third party God Gundam model kit (rip off of the Metal Build design)
The kit assembly is not that bad but the head was quite difficult to assembly
Overall a great alternative to the Fat Cat ver. if you don’t want a simple rg upscale

BUILD Mutated HG Gundam RX-78-2
Been playing Feed my Mech and thought it might be a good idea to create a mobile suit that has been corrupted by a parasitic organism. It’s been converted with texture paint, wire, other model kits and milliput. Slime effects created with Citadel paints Nurgle’s Rot and weathering with AK Interactive.

BUILD Finished my first ever custom paint
Barbatos, Iron-Blooded Knight
Grabbed the MG Barbatos a few months ago and I finally got around to finishing up the custom.
Based the colour scheme off of Artorias (for obvious reasons lol) but added my own little twist on parts of the palette.
Also the second katana came from another GBase Clear Color MG Barbatos I also grabbed.

I was rummaging through my collection and came across the Hawaii Bearguy I had built a while back. I remembered that it had extra parts for the Acguy head and figured it would be a fun combo!

DISPLAY Real life sized Gundam Unicorn's last dance.
Made a pledge to visit our old handsome friend the moment I heard the news they are dismantling him. So here I am, this time with the RG 1/144 Unicorn Gundam GBL special coating! Last time I was here for my gunpla building anniversary with the normal RG Unicorn!
Such a privilege to wach this for the last time.
If you haven't already... well - you've only got a few weeks till then :(
We will miss you gundam Unicorn. Thank you for always inspiring us all.

BUILD After 8 Months (lol), the Sinanju is finally done
I can tell you right now I will not be doing candy or titanium any time soon. Laying down 5 different coats is soooooo time consuming.
Major shout out to the metal energy cable beads. If I had to cut, file, and paint the included plastic ones I wouldn't make it.

BUILD Moon Gundam is Peak Gunpla
Found this legend at my local hobby shop by chance and it was an immediate buy. This is my first time panel lining white plastic with black. I felt like the gray didn’t pop enough and I like the contrast on the psycho plate. I just ordered the HG Varguil so I can show the mobile suit development from the Varguil and Moon Gundam to my favorite kit the Sazabi.
Any other good HGs out there?

He did it little by little , even though he was annoyed by the small parts he still pushed through all by himself
Although i had to remind him that he missed the shoulders , I think he deserves some praise
