1/100 MG Sazabi ver Ka part 5

Although you saw the complete frame in my previous post on Sazabi, my other camera had some work in progress shots of the shoulder section here.

I'd decided that not just the thrusters would be metallic, but the sections that held the thrusters would be done in … Continue Reading ››

The Sazabi inner frame is just about complete, so I wanted to get some shots of it as this is one of the nicest inner frames on an MG I've seen.

One of the really nice things about the Sazabi is the level of detail on the inner frame. One of the tricky aspects is figuring out what's the best way to paint that frame and it's components to best take advantage of the detail.

Sazabi is a really big kit. There's lots of parts on the armour and some of them have stickers, so I decided to mask them, and airbrush different undercoats so as to produce the differentiated red tones I'm after.

Although the backlog is large, it's only going to get smaller by picking a kit to build next. I'd had enough time to think where I wanted to go next, and that was Sazabi.

It's a big kit! It comes in a box 1/2 the size of … Continue Reading ››

I entered this build in the HLJ Playing with Plamo competition, so now that that's over, I'm blogging my build.

Starting with the box, it's a decent sized MG kit. I've not had much luck with transforming kits, so I took this as a challenge. Continue Reading ››

I've built of few RG kits since I started Gunpla. None have disappointed me, and the RG Strike Freedom doesn't either. I built the PG Strike Freedom last year, and it is a great big monster of a kit, but it's also problematic: the wings are delicate to position and their … Continue Reading ››

Over xmas we had a power cut, so airbrush was not an option. But luckily I had these two kits that don't really need any painting. They're cute, they're fun, and they're a little fiddly to put together. But they look great!

The little camera I keep in the craft room died, (but it's in to get repaired) so I didn't get many pictures of the RG Strike Freedom being built. Something interesting happened though while I was doing an initial paint on the frame. I sprayed on the Alclad gloss black primer as normal, and then I … Continue Reading ››
