I like this picture because you don't really get a sense of the scale of, even having built it and doing hours of taking and editing photos. It's... not really that big. #gundam #gunpla #scalemodel #diorama

So upon reviewing the rules for the Gunpla Builder's World Cup, my entry may or may not be disqualified due to third-party decals.
Mega sigh.
I meant this to be a learning experience for ~big project~ next year, and I guess that's happening. Some of these pictures looks pretty OK though. #Gundam

After spending all my free time for weeks working on it, rushing to get it finished before the #GBWC deadline, I finally got my diorama ready enough to stick in my photo booth, as the last thing I do before bed (and work tomorrow).

So, uh, I forgot I had a ton of photo etch detail-up parts until now... the things an international move will make you forget. #gunpla #gundam #scalemodel

Decent #diorama progress on the damaged concrete but I need to figure out that inside portion. IRL its often light dirt or gravel thrown around when a runway is cratered, but this is one of those cases where I might go cool over real. #gunpla #gundam #battledamage #scalemodel

This evening I continue clogging your feed with #diorama updates. Messed up some asphalt, on purpose. Needs another pass or two with oils but looking less factory fresh than yesterday, which was the goal. #Gundam #gunpla #scalemodel #weathering

(9 of 9) Final post of this modeling Sunday; just a look at the base with the Gundam and Trailer. Gonna do a lot of fiddling with the pose by the end but you get the idea. Tomorrow is pre-shading, then paint. Not looking forward to the dirt...

(8 of ??) Okay, here's the curb. Not primed but luckily it's white/light gray in the anime. For the pavement, I sprayed Mr. Surfacer 500 far away and at a high pressure so it would partly dry, something you generally avoid. Hopefully the subtle texture will make it look more real once painted.

(7 of ??) We are scribed and primed, mostly. Forgot to add the curb so I'll fix that now.

(4 of ??) Airports also gives me some inspiration of how to break up the flat surface so it's more visually interesting, such as markings and different surface shades. Those concrete pads have quite a bit of tonal variation, and even mixed up angles. Check out my local airport, FRA (Google Earth):
