Completed Build - Gundam x Star Wars: Zaku Stormtrooper Custom


I've had the concept of a Gundam/Star Wars crossover for a few months now. After finally receiving the kit and water slides and also being motivated after seeing Rogue One, I decided to make it my next build.

How To - Cheap DIY Padded Sanding Sticks


I recently used up a previous sanding stick I made and had to make a few more to replace it. Figure I'd post a quick  how to at the same time. These sanding sticks are super cheap and easy to make.

Completed Build - SD Knight Gundam - Full Metal Custom



This is my last completed build of 2016. I love the look of combining Gundams and knight armour so I decided to try and do a full repaint to give it the metal look it deserves.

Completed Build - MG 1/100 RX-78-02 Gundam The Origin


Finally had a chance to build the Granddaddy Gundam. Tackled a lot of gunpla first with this build. First Master Grade, RX-78-2, waterslides, panel line washes and more. Having never built an MG before, the amount of detail and engineering was surprising. Let's get onto build.

Pilot Painting Experiment



After completing the RX-78-02 Origin kit (which I'll post after I take some photos), I decided to try my hand at painting the mini Amuro. Being a hand painter, I figure I'd use it to practice some more detail work for kits down the road.

Completed Build - FM 1/100 Gundam Barbatos


Let's kick things off with a build I completed a couple weeks ago. This 1/100 Barbatos was the first "major" Gunpla kit I built in over 10+ years. The Iron Blooded Orphans kits all seem to be very newcomer friendly, with good detail, inner frames, simple builds, and cheap prices.
