PG RX-78-2 part 3

Moving onto the legs, they're a beauty!

I really like the clean details and construction, and the colour scheme is working well.

Moving on to the white armour pieces, they all started with a good undercoat of Alclad … Continue Reading ››

PG RX-78-2 part 2

Gallery May 10, 2020 GN Leave a comment

With most of the frame done in Tamiya gunmetal, we can move onto assembly.

I added some shadows in Tamiya smoke. It's subtle, but looks pretty good.

The yellow pieces were Tamiya lemon, with Tamiya clear over the top. … Continue Reading ››

PG RX-78-2

Gallery May 9, 2020 GN Leave a comment

This kit has been waiting a fair while to be built. But even before I bought it, I'd been waiting a while since I first saw it and knew it had to be part of my collection.

Such an unassuming box for such a classic kit.Continue Reading ››

Finishing up Big K: 1/100 Kshatriya

Gallery May 8, 2020 GN Leave a comment

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. Continue Reading ››

1/100 UC Kshatriya 4

So after a bit of a break, (check out www.thepolymusicon.com for what I've been working on) I'm back trying to complete this resin kit of Kshatriya.

I looked at the sleeve pieces I'd painted and found that the paint had cracked! But it looks kinda cool, so … Continue Reading ››

1/100 UC Kshatriya 3

Gallery January 2, 2019 GN 2 Comments

Progress is slow on Kshatriya.

I modified the skirt section parts with very small pieces of plastic to close the hole where the ball of the peg sits. This will make the ball joint actually work rather than the ball just fall out. Continue Reading ››

1/100 UC Kshatriya 2

Gallery November 18, 2018 GN Leave a comment

Time to look at paint for Kshatriya. I wanted to go with a more subdued green (for the most part) and to use Tamiya paints (thinned with lacquer thinner) as they're stronger than the Createx pearl green that I used on the Elyn Kshatriya.

Here's the paint … Continue Reading ››

Look what just arrived in the post from SamuelDecal! My experience with resin kits is ancient. Many many (many) years ago I designed and produced a Dr Who resin kit of the "Giant Robot" from the first Tom Baker story "Robot". I scratch built the Robot and cast a small number in resin for … Continue Reading ››

I took this photos a while back in progress on Hi-Nu.

I really like the Createx pearl blue colour. It's not the strongest of paints, so all pieces got healthy coats of Future Finish to protect them.Continue Reading ››

1/100 MG Hi-Nu Gundam

Gallery August 21, 2018 GN Leave a comment

This kit has waited patiently to be built. It's had to wait because first I had to track down the P-Bandai expansion pack, and I was lucky to get help there from a Japanese friend. And then I got hold of the metal parts pack. And then … Continue Reading ››
