Argh I think I’ve burned myself out last week doing marathon work on the Silent Mobius plaque. But after getting all the supplies I needed for Cammy this week I’m giving Cammy some due attention 🙂 I was waiting for her eyelashes to come; after seeing how they look on Reflect’s Rei, I think Cammy… Continue reading Reflect Cammy part 4

Attack of the grail kit part 6
I’ve finally gotten the stained glass I was talking about as candidates for the frame. The good news is that they are indeed as fantastic as they were shown from the place where I bought it, coe90.com. The bad news is that like other iridescent materials they are really picky about lighting. These two are… Continue reading Attack of the grail kit part 6
Next: Protect Gear?
While I was working on the recent Silent Mobius and Cammy kits, I was also looking into beefing up my Takara Protect Gear/Jin-roh figure; probably the next project after completing the duo. The make of the figure approaches the quality of garage kits, that’s why I’m loving it 🙂 If I get the armor to… Continue reading Next: Protect Gear?
Attack of the grail kit part 5
OMG over the last week I’ve been detailing one girl per day non-stop, it was exhausting… Right now I have 5 out of the 6 girls’ faces detailed, except Kasumi (lower middle). Still a bit more to go! I still haven’t converged on a good frame idea, arrrggggh 🙂
Reflect Cammy part 3
Did more corrective work on the Reflect Cammy, and now it’s painting time. She’ll be holding her Beret Cap on her right hand, and her unloaded boots will be lying somewhere on the floor.

Warning: RANT I have been having a bad week trying to figure out what I want to do with the frame… seriously, that’s perhaps the least important part of the kit and yet consumes the most thoughts! There are these couple of issues. First, the frame can’t be too detailed, since the girls are already… Continue reading Attack of the grail kit part 4
Attack of the grail kit part 3
After a week of non-stop painting/masking, The plaque is finally taking up color! You’ve gotta see the leftover masking liquid film that I pulled off, it’s insane 🙂 There are many nook and crannies on the kit, the masking film sometimes get lodged in them and make the film hard to pull up. A little… Continue reading Attack of the grail kit part 3
Attack of the grail kit part 2
While waiting for paint/putty to dry on Cammy, I’ve picked up the Silent Moebius Venus plaque again, this time working on it for real 🙂 Originally I wanted to saw off the frame so that I won’t have such a hard time with painting the base, but my largest dremel saw disc couldn’t penetrate the… Continue reading Attack of the grail kit part 2
Reflect Cammy part 2
Finally action resumes on Codyland where we left off, with un-nazi-rized Cammy. I’ve made a lot of changes in the past week, but it’s a hassle to take my camera out of the photo rig setup these days. Btw it’s a royal pain to upload multiple images with wordpress! I made two main changes from… Continue reading Reflect Cammy part 2
Pre-hiberation WIP
It’s the “divisible by 3” time of the year, so I’m again getting less time to build stuff. It looks like I can squeeze in quick build yet, however. This Ryofu from Ikkitousen is one of the better renditions of this cutie, and I’m planning to do a wet-shirt version of her. Still need to… Continue reading Pre-hiberation WIP
