RX-78-2 version 2.0 Work in Progress

[gunplotato]

Hobbylink order arrived today! RX-78v2 will be the next build!

Also, some new tools. I still need to order a topcoat and thinner to clean the tamiya liquid linner I bough a few weeks ago if i am going to start using it

RG Mark II complete!

This is the first RG I build and I liked the flexibility of the frame. Also, first time with the stickers (my two MG are still waiting for them, lol)). I hate stickers, but they make the gunplas look cooler. I think that some of the stickers would be better with paint, more specific I hate how the small gold and silver points and lines look. I bought markers on those colors, next time I will test them

The only problem is that a small part of the backpack got lost will working on it, I have searched everywhere and I can't find it... well, lost while on combat I guess (?)

Next build will probably be the RX78 v2 (package still on its way home) or the HG calibarn (already started, building it with my bf)

But first.... I will put the stickers on my MG kits. I am also thinking on ordering a top coat and something to clean blurry panel lines (currently testing liquid liner for some parts)

Mark II RG build on Summer 2024

More work in progress! Only the backpack, guns and stickers left, I may be able a o finish this build on the next day off.

Most of the linner is done with markers, but I am testing the tamiya liquid linner in some parts. I still need to check how to clean the stains before using only liquid linner on a kit

My local anime store has a gundam gashapon again, couldn't resist buyung this small Mark II and build it as soon as I got back home...

Meanwhile, my RG Mark II is still in progress.

I promise I will finish it this summer... My backlog is staring at me

[gunplotato]

Bank holiday on my city means time to work on the Mark II RG!

[gunplotato]

Two more haros join the collection! I don't have more of them on my backlog so maybe... time to look for a new haro?

I love these little guys

Build on July 2024

[gunplotato]

Starting my first RG gunpla! This was a present from my boyfriend when I finished university last year, I love Gundam Zeta!

[gunplotato]

Starting my holydays building the red Haro... I love this little guys and I am starting to collect them. I still have to build the clear green and clear orange!

HG Shenlong Gundam. I got this kit last december as a birthday present from my coworkers. I haven't wstch Wing jet, but this was a really nice present I enjoyed

I am back to gunpla after a few months and now I have to choose which kit from my backlog I will build next... maybe is time for my first RG? I hate having to choose one, I want to build them all

Buildt between April and May 2024

[gunplotato]

My backlog when I preordered de Gundam RX-78 RG 2.0 despite saying that I wouldn't buy any more kits until I reduced it's size.... well, I will acept that my backlog will keep growing :D

[gunplotato]

Work in progress. I built the weapons today (they are horrible to pose) but I still have to put the sticker, I am really lazy when it comes to those....

Build started on November 2023 and finished on March 2024 (stickers pending)

[gunplotato]

The only work left is building the weapons and the stickers. I will probably finish it next weekend

[gunplotato]

Back to building gunpla! I started the year sick and then I had to organize my move to a new apartment, so I couldn't finish this kit. Meanwhile, my backlog grew exponentially (no regrets, i love all the kits I got).

Let's ser if I can end this build soon and start a new one!

[gunplotato]

Happy new year to everyone!

This year I discovered Gundam and with that I found a new hobby to love.

This post has everything I built on 2023. For the new year, I already have some kits waiting for me. And new things to learn! The led kit for the Aerial FM and I may try to learn a little bit of weathering.

[gunplotato]

Birthday means new gunplas! I got the Shenlong from my coworkers (totally unexpected, I never spoke about Gundam at work) and the High nu Ver Ka is a self present.

I think i will have some busy months between this kits and the Aerial Full Mechanics (which was also a present from my boyfriend)

[gunplotato]

Happy Holidays!

I am trying to upload everything I build this year before the year ends.

This Gouf MG was built with my boyfriend on March 23. One of the first kits... we didn't know how to sand and we were starting using panel liners. We have learn quite a lot since we built this kit!

But this kit is not finished, we still have to put the decals on it. Will upload again when ready.

I am also starting to play with my old camera... something new to learn for the new year!
