This One Took a Long While! HG Lancelot Albion

I don't know what Bandai Spirits is thinking nowadays, but this recent announcement made me realize how they had a habit of starting a model kit line and not really finishing it. Or at least, not after many years later. Back in 2007, they released several Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion kits under their … Continue reading This One Took a Long While! HG Lancelot Albion

Prior to this build, I was really apprehensive when it comes to hand-painting my kits. But thanks to a couple of YouTube tutorials, I've had a new found appreciation of the technique, … Continue reading Hand-Painting, Literally. Work-in-Progress #2: MODEROID Savage Crossbow

New MODEROID Solicitations: January 2020

Cheesy banner image aside, Good Smile Company has released their January 2020 product solicitations and includes some from their MODEROID model kit line.

Staring with the 1/35 … Continue reading New MODEROID Solicitations: January 2020
