SD Ryuuho completed!

Finally completed Ryuuho, took days to do so. It's a pretty decent kit, except for some loose parts and the lack of articulation. Painting is okay if you folow the box, but I did some extras to mine so I took a longer time to complete the kit. So here it is.

Yea, it's kinda blurry, guess my phone's gonna retire =)

Anyway, here it is with his B-Daman pose, his chest peice always reminds me of B-Daman shooting marbles 0.0. Did some extra paint job on the hands and the chest piece.

And this is Ryuuho without all his armour and stuff. Kinda cute and fat. xD

Basically, his weapons are just 2 swords and a stick. The swords gave me one hell of a time. The chrome silver I used kinda get scratch easily and I had to give it quite a few coats to make it look good.

His stick is really just a stick. The swords can be stuck into the ends of it and it's kinda uhh... funny. The stick with the swords are like 2 to 3 times taller than the guy...

So yeah... that's 1 kit done of the big pile. Together with SD Zaku II Ecopla, 2 kits were completed in a week. Yeah the progress is slow mostly due to the lack of paints. But well, I gonna go get some paint later, might get Mr. Hobby colour and Top Coat for the first time to try it out.

And if the above post was not enough, here's a first look at my Meng Huo, Zhu Rong and the elephant thingy set. Everything is still in progress but I've completed the Master Mammoth thingy! Kinda simple, not much painting needed but panel lining's a bunch O_O Anyway, due to the imcomplete Meng Huo and Zhu Rong, Ryuubi will be the model to show off this mammoth thingy =)

It looks pretty good but the joints are kinda loose.

Its tank mode is okay... Not amazing but not bad. I didn'tlike the idea of the tusks being bring forth to the turret so I left it onto the face.

But that's not it. Here's the one I've been really looking forward to ever since the set's announcement =)

Behold the giant armour thing...uhh.. thingy? Well, there's Ryuubi taking over the incomplete Meng Huo. I've to say this is really awesome. Articulation ain't a bunch but it's enough.

This guy came with many clear green effect parts, and this seems to be it releasing some kind of energy bolt thingy... A representation of the Shining Finger?

And yep, this is the end of the short WIP. Gotta go get my paints to start my kits, bye folks =)

Most at a go!

It's been one hell of a Gunpla week. I got 9 kits (one is free) and 2 action bases. Hmm... and yeah, this is my biggest loot ever! Mostly because it's my birthday and another reason is that it's the Gundam Fiesta at Compass Point. So yeah, here it is...

Comes with free Eco bag ^^ And those 2 small bags you see on the left are Sangokuden bags, they are just enough to fit a HG 1/144 scale kit.

Here's the list if you can't see (from top to bottom):

SD Sangokuden Soldier (Free ^^)

Action Base 2 Sparkling Green x2

SD 0 Gundam

SD Ryuuho

SD Zaku II Ecopla

SD Exia Repair II

HG 0 Gundam

HG Gadess

HG Arios Gundam GNHW/M

SD Meng Huo, Zhu Rong set

SD 0 Gundam, SD Exia R2 and one of the action base was bought a week before the fiesta. And look, there's HG 0 Gundam, can't believe I got it 1 day after the actual release date on Japan. Oh and yeah, I got SD Zaku II Ecopla just to try it out, not bad for a recycled kit, comes with Bandai hobby decals.

So yeah, that's alot of stuff for me to do. I started on SD Exia R2, SD Ryuuho and the soldier. SD Exia R2 was actually my main focus until I ran out of grey paint, and damn, it was 80% completed. Oh well, gotta wait for some time to get the paint, and maybe Top Coat and some weathering markers.

Anyways, to kill some time, I started doing Ryuuho and the soldier. Well, kinda dissapointed in Ryuuho. Yea, it looks cool and I thought the vintage architecture was fine, but not till I found some parts are loose and some hard to put together, might glue some parts together, sheesh...

Oh, Im gonna post some stuff of the Gundam Fiesta soon, I went there on the 3rd and 4th day, so don't expect to see some new stuff like the diroma of the Meng Huo set and Koumei Nu in the jungle, but the good news is, Im gonna go there again tommorow! Hahs, oh well, lets end this post with Ryuho, unpainted.

That's it folks!
