Shin Matsunaga Redux!

I got tired of looking at Mr. Matsunaga's White Wolf standing on my desk with all his stickers on. So I changed some things. For more information and pics, check out his redone gallery.

I did lose one Bclub hand though... dammit.

GNX test shots

The WIP is still in progress on the Gundam Australia Forum so be sure to check it out. I have moved onto the markings and the panel lines. Without water seal decals (C'mon Bandai...) I am using the dry transfers and, occasionally, the stickers (blech!). Bandai has included, as dry transfers, unit number markings, ranging from number 1, Patrick's Machine, to number 30!!

1-10 are AEU units (whatever that means)

11-20 are 人革連 units (still no idea)

21-30 are ウニオン units (ya lost me)

machines of note (translating from katakana here):

#1 Patrick's

#11 Sergei's

#20 Pierce's

#21 Graham's

#22 Daryll's

#25 Henry's

I have asked the members of the Gundam Australian Forum to help pick out which number this unit I am constructing will be. I await the results.

RX-78-2 Ver KA Gallery

I took this guy home last weekend and did some panel lining. There is not much in the way of articulation from a kit released in 2002, so its ability to pose is minimal. Feels good to finally get him in front of the camera so I know that he is considered officially finished.

GAF GN-X WIP

Yes, that is a lot of TLA (three letter acronyms). As you readers may or may not know, I have started building the newest Master Grade Gundam from Bandai, the GN-X (pronounced jinx). As something new, I decided to keep the work in progress on the Gundam Australian Forum.

You can view the WIP here.

But so my blog won't be devoid of pictures I will post this exclusive.That's the top half of the GNX holding his GN Drive [T] as if it were a football. You can see he is straight-arming with his left hand. Protect the rock! Superbowl this sunday, folks!

I should also have a couple of new galleries up next week (and the GN-X isn't one of them).

Gouf Ver 2.0 Gallery

Kit: MG MS-07B Gouf Ver. 2.0

Here it is, ladies and gentlemen. I did the majority of the build at the kitchen table with my daughter who now, when she sees gundam in Hobby Japan, says "Daddyの" (Daddy's).

I am still working on posing it and creating a good shot, but the Gouf is really photogenic as you can see for yourself.

my favourite shot

What's next for me? I don't know yet. I have two other MG's in the works (in the midst of decaling now) and have developed a liking for a couple of the newer ones...
