cabs in japan
First off, I would like to thank everyone for their positive comments and remarks Happy

hmm... its like this, a unicorn gundam without decals is just like a dalmatian without its black spots Big grin
It would look too plain without the decals IMO, much more if it is in unicorn mode.

LOL ok ok, now to explain why I refer to it as a custom work.
I made 3 modifications on it actually:

1. I changed the color scheme (a little bit)
- I used a lighter shade of gray for its visible joint parts previously dark gray which seems to stand out to much and does not compliment the white armor.
- I added a coat of pure white to the armor (a whiter white color in other words Tongue)

2. I made use of water transfer decals rather than the included generic stickers which came with the box. (the only advantage I noticed was cleaner results in rough, multi-angled and uneven areas)

3. I made modifications to its legs (knee part and lower legs to be precise). In its actual design the knee can be bent only at a limited angle limiting its pose. Thus i decided to remodel it a bit by removing some excess plastic on both external and internal parts on the knee area to provide greater movement. See pics below for more info.

as of now, there is no news of it being animated.
Only new thing i saw related to this is the upcoming december MG release which would be the Sinanju (which closely resembles a sazabi) which came from this series.

Above is an image of the original knee design

I decided to modify the external parts first which gave a bit more movement but the result wasn't enough

After some cuts here and there, I finally got a satisfying angle of movement Woot

With it, the following poses became possible:

Much better than any standing pose if u ask me. Big grin

Just bought a new kit which was recently released

The articulation points of this kit is amazing, far better than any previously released Master Grades.


As for my next project:

been a long time since I've posted anything here. so what better way to revive it, is by showing off some goodies Big grin


first off is the Limited SUPPLICE edition of the AALIYAH kit
[Image: P1000123.jpg]
:: pretty dark colored, I didn't like it but with some customizations.... hmm maybe *thinking*

next one is the ever so popular WHITE GLINT
[Image: P1000112.jpg]
:: as you might notice at the lower right part of the picture, it says 7140yen Jason highway robbery Facepalm


another seen on the wild is the VF-25F Armored Messaiah Drool
[Image: P1000121.jpg]
:: enduring the urge to buy the previous 2 versions was all worth it Rock on
The kit is much thicker and noticeably much heavier than the previous versions, mainly because of the added parts of the armored pack unit and the included SMS stand. As seen on the box art, it also includes a sniper rifle other than the regular gun pod.
Definitely a must buy Big grin


next is the KOTOBUKIYA version of VOOT's SPECINEFF Shades
[Image: P1000122.jpg]
:: being a fan of VOOT, I can't help but notice this one LOL

that's all for now...
again sorry for the low quality of the pictures, since my only option is to use my crappy cell camera on taking those pictures Ninja (much less conspicuous)


oh yeah, here is a sneak peek of my current work (3 months pending/delayed already)
[Image: IMG_1360.jpg]
the only thing left to do is to add the decals and some finishing touches to make it complete.
The only thing hindering me for all these months is that something seems to be wrong with the color scheme that I designed for it and I can't quite tell on what it is. Until this issue is addressed, this will stay locked away on my closet Facepalm
Any ideas anyone? Happy


oh, a new smiley Sophie Sophie Sophie Sophie Sophie Sophie Sophie Sophie Sophie /spam Chair

Si Bumblebee Gundam na!

Seriously though, I think the paint scheme is nice. I dunno why you think something's wrong with it.
