1/144 HG Kampfer - WIP part 1

The kit has been cut away from the runners, gates have now been shaved off and sanded. Some parts also now glued and set to remove seam lines. Just need to sand it down a little to remove the glue blobs, and finish them off so they look nice and smooth. As luck would have it.. out of sandpaper, thinner and certain colours of spray so I'm at a dead end until I can order some more bits tomorrow. Gay.

Parts separated, the long, boring, laborious, crappy tasks of Gunpla now out of the way. :) 

Ill be spraying this up next weekend methinks, may do a vid, maybe not. I am also working on building a DIY spray booth with an extractor fan, I'll post up a "how-to" on this very soon. Considering most spray booths are going to cost you £70+ I think this one which is only going to cost around £25 and will probably do a better job is going to be well worth the time and effort in building. More soon.

Coming Soon

Lots of kits to build until I receive the very eagerly-anticipated Gundam Unicorn full armour MG 1/100 :) I am currently working on a Kampfer - detail of this in my next post.

Coming next will be my first MG build is the Gundam Astray Blueframe revise 1/100, can't wait to get started on this. Need to order up some decals too.. will be true to its normal colour scheme, not planning to weather or customise it as it is my first MG build.

 

Next up will be the Jagd Doga, 1/144 HG from the UC Gundam series. Will stick to the original colours too.. 

Theeeeen this Throne Eins HG 1/144 from Gundam 00, making the black parts glossy, the grey/white parts will be aluminium. Think this will look great all shined up. 

 

Definitely not going to need to make any more purchases as yet.. my wallet severely damaged by beam sabers.

Gundam UK and Movember

Hey, this year I will be participating in Movember, and would really appreciate any donations you can make to support men's health, and give to cancer charities. For those of you who have not heard of this, the idea is simple - you grow a moustache throughout the month of November - hence "mo" vember :). You can take a look at my page and progress here:
