"Fat Cat" 1/100 RG RX-78-2
Completed 2025-10-21
Some of those joints were so tight my thumbs were sore for days afterwards. That kind of works in its favor in the end though - it's an absolute joy to pose. Kind of did my own thing with the decals since the MG Origin ones I had didn't quite fit.

Just realized it was actually 1 year ago today since I built my first model. I've come a long way but still plenty more to learn - the model show I visited today was definitely both humbling and inspiring.

Stopped by the Torcan model show today, figured I'd post some of the cool stuff I saw there. The vast majority of the floor was dedicated to things like military and car models but there was a decent amount of gunpla and other mecha.

Fully painted with some weathering. Starting to get the hang of this. The model itself was a breeze to assemble, though it does kinda make me want to seek out one of those 1/24 older kits with a cockpit and Chirico figure.

Also got the Yuanzu Fat Cat, any resemblance to the RG 2.0 RX-78-2 upscaled to 1/100 is purely coincidental. I've got some newfangled water based Stedi panel liner as well that should be safe to use on bare plastic even if this is ABS like reported.

Couple new pickups today - finally got a good price on Daizengar to be ready for when Bandai announces HG Aussenseiter...any day now. But yeah, going to paint him I think. It's a cool kit that apparently doesn't use stickers but I think I could do some cool stuff with it.

Here's what I'll be doing next - planning to fully paint this one and experiment with weathering techniques. Wanna make it real grimy looking. Also got a new airbrush that I'm definitely looking forward to trying out on this guy, from early testing seems like a nice upgrade from my GHAD-39.

MG Tallgeese
Completed 2025-08-14
This one is partially painted, I wanted to change it to the 'anime version' colours. But I also made some other adjustments like the head crest and metallic highlights. Had a few rough spots doing this one but I definitely learned a lot in the process.

I've been meaning to start MG Tallgeese for a while and all the Gundam Wing talk pushed me over the edge on it. The plan isn't to fully paint it but I do want to convert it to the 'anime version' colour scheme. Except I also want to keep the yellow stuff as gold highlights.

Best Mecha Collection RX-78-2 'Revival Ver.'
Completed 2025-08-02
Fully painted, tried to keep it simple with as few mistakes as possible. I thought it would just be the EG slightly changed but it's actually got a lot of differences, love how it looks but boy does it ever not articulate much.

Next up, finally managed to get my hands on one of these goofy things. Right off the bat the manual is kinda amazing, has some little history lessons on how far gunpla technology has progressed. Also was surprised to see color separation for the head vulcans, which is an improvement over the EG.

I'd like to airbrush a couple more gunpla as practice, but my real goal is to combine a couple of the 30MM Armored Core 6 kits into an approximation of my 'real' AC. This is a combination of Nightfall and Liger Tail - still deciding on a paint scheme, but it's nice I can preview it in-game.

SDCS Zaku-II
Completed 7/25/2025
My first time custom painting gunpla - I didn't base the colour scheme on anything in particular, just thought it'd look cool. Made a lot of mistakes while learning, so I ended up incorporating them into the weathering.

Next up is the SDCS Zaku-II, but I plan on doing a fully painted build this time. Don't know how it'll turn out but worst case, it's about as cheap a kit as you can get here.

For my first test project with this airbrush I'd like to attempt to fix Gunleon's guns. I don't know if I want to do exactly like the example but I could certainly get at least somewhat closer. If the base plastic had been orange I'd probably have attempted it with markers already.

I picked this one up before I even watched Witch From Mercury because I liked the look of it so much. I could see myself grabbing a few more of this line, this one was great. Also my first time using both holo decals and my airbrush (for a gloss topcoat).

MG Gundam Vidar
Completed 7/2/2025
Vidar has all of the fun of MG Barbatos and not only did they fix some of its issues, they included spare parts to either fix or convert the older inner frame.
It's been fun gathering my thoughts about all my models while updating my photos, all caught up now.

Would be cool if they eventually do the upgraded versions of this one and Alt, though I know Kotobukiya has versions of those from years ago. I just really like what Bandai did with the SRW kit designs and they are super fun to build.

I've been using this one as a weathering testbed. I did more since the last time I posted it, and will probably keep messing with it (want to try dry brushing next). EGs are surprisingly cool, I like that no stickers were involved.

It was really interesting seeing the technological advancement from that old Gouf Custom I did to this. It's a bit old but holds up great...though, those tubes made my fingers hurt.

Fun, unique little kit. Was a little spooked by the arms being entirely ABS so I didn't put any panel liner near them, but I think I've got what I need to do that safely now.

This would probably be my favorite kit if it was 1/100 but it's still pretty great. Didn't have issues with tiny parts this time, maybe I just improved in general since my previous RG.
