Batch 2 as promised. I thought hard about how to make the Unicorn’s psycho frame glow and got it some fluorescent color at first, but this is totally unnecessary with black light. Had to strip it off before taking this set.

Anything about model building
Filling the backlog
I’m starting to shoot the models I’ve done over the past few years… there’s just a lot so I won’t be making separate pages for them, but rather shooting a batch whenever I feel like it. Here is the first Master Grade batch.

What took them so long?
Hasegawa finally came out with the 1/48 version of the Strike Valkyrie. OMG. I have no doubt they were going to do it eventually, but man that’s a frigging 3 years since the regular version came out! That’s why they’ve become one of the also-ran companies.
My dremel lasted 12 years
My dremel minimite has finally died due to a motor jam. But given it has served me for 12 years that was great investment. The new minimite is smaller and lighter, which is awesome.
Patraqushie Mirage redux
Playing with flash and trying to retake some of my older kits. The good’ol Knight of Gold AT / Patraqushie Mirage is definitely still one of my fav, so I decided to see how it goes casting a blue gel… interesting!
Gundam Epyon EW 1/100 Master Grade EW MG
It seems like everyone and their cat are building this Epyon kit. It might not be the most popular suit coming from Gundam Wing, but the Katoki’s MG rendition was pretty awesome, maintaining its sinister look while modernizing the design so that it’s less super-robot-like. The only thing I don’t like are the wings, which… Continue reading Gundam Epyon EW 1/100 Master Grade EW MG
Gundam Deathscythe Hell Custom : Endless Waltz EW MG
This critter came from a nonstop weekend run of kit building to make room for another big purchase… Would need more photos soon but I’m a bit sick of posing this dude… While I like the mech and the kit has done justice to it, I feel the construction of the kit is on the… Continue reading Gundam Deathscythe Hell Custom : Endless Waltz EW MG
OO Raiser Gundam Seven Swords
OO Gundam is a rather strange design with top heavy components, and the Seven Swords configuration fixes some of that issue with more legs attachments. The Seven Swords mod kit was applied on top of the 1/100 HG kit, and the LED were installed as well. To take photos with nice LED effects, you’ll need… Continue reading OO Raiser Gundam Seven Swords
Happy Halloween – 1/8 Horizon Alien
Never got the will to finish this kit – on of the first I’ve bought. But this year I thought I could make something for Halloween, so I dug up this oldie and tried to finish it quick. However after finding many references, I still don’t know what to do with the guy. My memory… Continue reading Happy Halloween – 1/8 Horizon Alien
Hasegawa 1/48 YF-19 (Macross Plus)
Spent about 3 weekends on this guy. Finally building a macross plane with landing gear, hehe, since this guys to a bit too large to support in free flight form. The legs/engine hatch can be opened and I built one side open and one side closed; it’s possible to close them after the fact, but… Continue reading Hasegawa 1/48 YF-19 (Macross Plus)
