I teased building the HG L-Gaim with the completion of my RG Evangelion Unit-01 build, and this is something I've hemming and hawing for a good while. Back in 2020, Bandai Spirits announced that they are reviving the HG Heavy Metal L-Gaim kits with the release of a new HG L-Gaim Mk-II, a kit that … Continue reading Pivot to the Plamo: HG L-Gaim – Work in Progress #1

Am I Ready to Handle Macross-Level Decal Work? RG Evangelion Unit-01 (Evangelion 3.0+1.0) – Completed Build
There's supposed to be a one week gap between W.I.P post #2 and this one, though I apparently forgot to click publish on that post. In case any one would be picky of such details. There's some construction at the house at the moment so things may slow down for a week or two when … Continue reading Am I Ready to Handle Macross-Level Decal Work?

Appreciating the Absence of Masking: RG Evangelion Unit-01 (Evangelion 3.0+1.0) – Work in Progress #2

For starters, the kit isn't obviously 1/144 scale … Continue reading Appreciating the Absence of Masking: RG Evangelion Unit-01 (Evangelion 3.0+1.0) – Work in Progress #2
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
I Hate Core Fighters: HG GQuuuuuuX – Completed Build
This past week marks the third for my HG GQuuuuuuX build, and is also the one I was looking forward the least. While the parts remaining to be built are for the weapons and accessories, they are also the most needing painting and masking. Ironically, I didn't show any of them in the pic below … Continue reading I Hate Core Fighters: HG GQuuuuuuX – Completed Build
