I've put out a new album "Noctilucent" at The Polymusicon
I've got my craft room area where I build models tidied, and I'm trying to finish off the PG GP01. It's tricky to remember where I was in building the kit, but with luck it'll be done soon and I'll post images.
As long-time readers know, … Continue Reading ››
I've had to move this blog to a new host, so expect some downtime while I figure things out. I picked up work on the GP01 again, but as I'm trying to do some new things with cut-outs and hinges, it's taking its time....

Yes, Big K has been a long time coming.... I've had real issues with the paint sticking to the resin, making masking a real pain and many pieces had to be redone. So rather than drive myself to frustration, I gave the kit a rest and now I've come back to finish it.
