Former academic, now long-term unemployed. Likes archaeology, art, painting, assembling models, painting assembled models. Always happy to share my work results (all, including the good, the bad, and especially the ugly)
This time I’d like to show you the first 1:100 #gunpla I ever painted in full. In May I got a Guncannon Detector for really cheap and thought it would look way better in camo, so I painted it that way (first time using the technique I later refined for the Burglarydog). #modelpainting #guncannon

My girlfriend recently assembled the 30 Minutes Fantasy Liber Archer. Armed and armored it looks really good, but I did didn’t the body itself could be so expressive! #gunpla #30minutesfantasy

A bit of a different post today, about the work in progress within the work completed :P I reworked the #30MinuteMissions display case and repainted it to look more metallic. I’m now using it to showcase models that aren’t fully completed yet (like the 30mm support vehicle doggo here ;) ).

…the last post for today – my #gunpla #HG Palace-Athene :) I tried to stick to the original colors but tweaked them a bit and avoided using stickers (I’m not a fan of stickers…). In the end, #modelpainting went well. By the way, this HG is way bigger than I expected!

One more post, this time featuring my set of 'support vehicles' from the #30MinuteMissions #Gunpla line. I know many people use them to add accessories to the main mecha, but I really fell in love with these little guys. With some additions (#ModelPainting), they can stand on their own as models :)

Ok, my very first post on Bluesky.... Here’s my freshly painted Burglarydog from #votoms. The model was a gift from my girlfriend, so I had to do something cool with it :) I haven’t been painting #gunpla for long but I feel like I’m finally making some progress in #modelpainting
