SNAA was on a roll with the Beyond Exquisite line of 1/144 scale Real Grade-esque kits from The Round Table Knights, a non-existent fiction these kits come from. They kind of took a break after releasing Giant Axe - Lancelot, but it seems like they're now making a return as the next kit is revealed: … Continue reading This Ain’t That Other Tristan: “The Round Table Knights” BE 1/144 Titan Great Sword Tristan

Am I Ready to Handle Macross-Level Decal Work? RG Evangelion Unit-01 (Evangelion 3.0+1.0) – Completed Build

Twice Upon a Time: RG Evangelion Unit-01 (Evangelion 3.0+1.0) – Work in Progress #1
High Grades, or other similarly sized/scaled/themed kits are my bread and butter in this hobby. That's why I don't get as much Real Grade kits as I initially intended and reserve any purchases for very notable or 'event' kits (and no, not event exclusive kits, you get the idea). It's the same reason why it … Continue reading Twice Upon a Time: RG Evangelion Unit-01 (Evangelion 3.0+1.0) – Work in Progress #1
