Husband, father, time-waster. Builds gunpla and plays video games too much.
Just finished up this knockoff kit that I've had for a bit. The lovely Nobel Gundam from G Gundam!

She super cute and really quick to put together. Thinking of getting another one that is a little bit weirder, so to speak.

Turns out that the stand (excuse me, platform unit) had more going on with it then I had initially thought. Looks like final assembly we have to wait till next weekend again.

Poor decisions were made.

As an aside before building more of the kit tomorrow, a little bit of perspective on the scale of the model.

We see a standard 1/144 HG RX-78-2 and of course the current state of the 1/100 MG Oberon.

Really is something.

Probably gonna call it a night with the kit. I won't be able to work on it again till maybe Tuesday at the earliest, we'll see. But I'm really excited to see this kit finished so I might try to build more of it on New Year's Eve and day.

It's about 8:45 here in the sunny south of the US of A and I am woefully under prepared to build this thing.

But that's never stopped me before, sure a hell won't stop me now.

Here we go.

...so

I bought a 1/100 master grade kit.

The Mecha Core Industries Oberon 1/100 Master Grade kit to be exact.

I am terrified.

There are soooooo many runners.

Pray for this poor soul and the kit being built.

A merry holidays to all and a special set today! Wife and I got this here Hello Kitty gunpla knock off for the child and we're putting it together now.

Love the runners being shaped like her head and bow.

So I built a Dom.

Not that kind.

It's another knock off and it showed. More then a few over flowed bits of plastic on the parts and some had small holes in them.

Other then that though? Pretty fun.

Gouf-chan is late for morning piloting class! She even forgot her bread! What will she do?!

Anyway, the Gouf is done! I really like how it came out. Less parts that felt fragile and that's with some popping out of the runners in transit.

Full disclosure, I mostly got it for the gunshield.

For the Bluesky folks! A knock off GM!

The broken visor is a choice and totally not cuz I broke while trying to clean it up.

He looks so goofy I love it.

Forgot the post this up here yesterday. My shiny new Cross Silhouette Calibarn!

She's very cute!

Just got my latest kit, the Calibarn SD!

Cross Silhouette! Whatever that means!

Is it weird that I have a HG Calibarn but I'm going to build the SD first?

Anyway, this should be interesting since I've never done one of these Cross Silhouette things before. Fun!

Put this up on Twitter so I figured I might as well post here too.

The SD Sazabi!

Not gonna go through all that again but it was a nice little gift from the wife on my birthday.
