Hi-Resolution Barbatos Complete

Gallery April 5, 2016 GN Leave a comment

Hi-Resolution Barbatos is a strange and expensive beast, that's also a fine looking Gundam!

The frame is gorgeous, with nice articulation and loads of detail. What's disappointing is that you don't get to build it yourself.

If you built the frame … Continue Reading ››

It must be because I was really enjoying Iron Blooded Orphans so much that I decided to try out Bandai's latest line of model kits - "HiRM Hi-Resolution Model".

Box is nice and glossy.

Inside, the pre-built frame is hiding … Continue Reading ››

Gallery December 27, 2015 GN 11 Comments

It's been a while since I've blogged a build, so let's go with MG Hyaku Shiki Ver.2.0. I like gold Gundam. Akatsuki was great fun, but it's quite a simple build because it's a no-grade. MG Hyaku Shiki isn't the most complex MG I've built, but there's enough going on to make it fun.Continue Reading ››

The Sword pack first involved disassembling the left shoulder of the mech so you can extract the one part you need to build up the new shoulder. Why an extra piece could not have been provided I don't know!

The new shoulder looks great, although there's fit … Continue Reading ››

There is a good set of water-slide decals with each of these kits.

The decals went on smoothly.

On the shoulders, the decals have to go over an edge, but they conformed well to the underlying shape. The … Continue Reading ››

The paint is dry, the top coat cured and we've reached that fun part of the build where you add the armour pieces and assemble.

And because of all the work up-front, it took only a few minutes to put everything together. I've kept the photos with … Continue Reading ››

I was just looking at my RG Strike for ideas and I noted the gold stickers on the arm joints and how much I liked that detail so I decided to make similar details on these Strikes.

I used my stick aluminium foil and cut stickers just … Continue Reading ››

Now that I've just about finished all the frame pieces, it's time to start looking at the colour scheme options. If you're doing an unpainted build you have options!

For the Sword Strike you can do the standard red/blue colour scheme and you also have an alternate … Continue Reading ››

For the build of the Dragon Momoko Launcher Strike and Sword Strike I decided to, for the most part, do a parallel build.

I unboxed both kits, and fortunately the Neo Zeong boxes make for a big enough "table" next to my work area for them both … Continue Reading ››
