randomness yet again.

long tyme no post huh? well lets see, AX has come and gone, will post pictures at a later date, at the moment im too lazy. I found a few things i liked here and there, so that was nice. I got around to buying an MG hi-nu gundam, so ill work on that eventually. For now, my time is consumed by working on my ZAKU ver 2.0. The internal Frame is done, with some silver dry brushing. Ill start on the outer armour when i get tyme to hook up the air compressor and air brush. I'm still working on the Justice, but i ran out of the pink i need for the outer armour, so its at a bit of stand still. As for the RX-ver ka, its been primed and put on skewers, so thats that. I'm also working on my 1/60 freedom. I was looking for an interesting project one day, and decided to mess around with my 1/60 Freedom that i had laying around, so here it goes. Thus far, I added a bit of pla-plate to the base of the wings to give a bit of definition to them as they seemed rather flat. secondly, i "opened" up the wings by cutting and re gluing the tops and bottoms of the individual wings. this was alot harder than i thought it would be, the blue plastic used for the wings was rather difficult to cur through, but hey im happy with the results thus far. There was no way to keep the cannons in between the wings because of the fact that i had opened up the wings, so i decided to remove and remount the cannons to a different place on the back pack using a bits of extra plastic i had from left over kits and lots of mori mori. I also cut the waste, added a ball joint and filled in the gap with pla-plate and more Mori Mori. I'm not too satisfied with the internal detailing in this area, so i plan to work on that later on. The i also added a second ball joint to the base of the neck to elongate it as well as to add a bit of mobility. I'm not quite sure on that else to do with this kit, so suggestions are more than welcome.






On another note, i finally sold my other Anaking ROTS FX lightsaber, and im still debating on wether or not to make my graflex 3-cell a luxeon or to buy the FX Luke ANH saber and make that into a lux. Either way it will be a fun project to work on after i get my Maul conversion done. Im still trying to get a hold of a CE qui-gon for $100 or less. My obi-wan will come in the mail some time in the next month, so im looking forward to that! thats it for now, ill try to updater more often!!
