1/100 Akatsuki – Beginning

Gallery May 19, 2013 GN Leave a comment

Here you can see some of the boxes of the kits I've been building. I'll have to deal with that problem at some point. Akatsuki is sitting there, just waiting to be built. The appearance of the Akatsuki mech in the Gundam Seed Destiny anime was … Continue Reading ››

This is the model kit that really got me back into models. I really wanted this kit when I was young, but it was unable to afford the £150 price tag. One day I did see it on sale for about £50 off, but it was still unaffordable. And now, of course, the kit is discontinued … Continue Reading ››

I eagerly awaited the arrival of this kit after watching the mech in action in the Gundam Unicorn anime. This was my first MG kit since the RX78 V1.5 and Zaku II I'd built way-back-when, and I wasn't quite sure what to expect, or what I'd be able to achieve... TGN_0161

Strike Crimson

Gallery May 18, 2013 GN Leave a comment

After waiting ages for the 1/60 Strike + Stiker Weapon System Pack to arrive, I'd already built the RG, and didn't feel like building this kit at all. And then I had the idea to try a more custom version. I'd been really happy with how MG Sinanju had come out, … Continue Reading ››

RG Strike

Gallery May 18, 2013 GN Leave a comment

RG Strike is such a great little kit. I've really enjoyed all the RG line that I've tried so far. This kit was made extra fun by buying the Skygrasper to go alongside it, although, quite frankly, more for the launcher pack for the Strike than the Skygrasper model itself.

1/60 Exia

Gallery May 18, 2013 GN Leave a comment

Exia was a favourite from the moment we first saw it on screen! But the 1/60 (I like big kits, but the RG kits have certainly educated me that small kits can be great too) took a while to come in off backorder at Hobby Link Japan, so when it arrived I was really … Continue Reading ››

PG Strike Freedom

PG Strike Freedom is what happens when Hobby Link Japan has a sale just before my birthday!

PG Strike Freedom is a large kit, and it's hard to get a really good photo of it's scale, and I'm going to need a larger backdrop if I … Continue Reading ››

Meteor Unit 1/144, RG Justice, RG Freedom

Gallery May 18, 2013 GN 13 Comments

After watching Gundam SEED, we just loved the Meteor units! But the Meteor Unit kit came with a not-so-good Freedom. Fortunately the new RG kits of Freedom and Justice work just great with the Meteor Unit.

I was … Continue Reading ››

PG 1/60 Astray Red Frame

Gallery May 18, 2013 GN 2 Comments

To kick me right back into model building I bought an airbrush (the local art store had a fabulous sale on), paint booth (with extractor to the outside world) and the Astray Red Frame Perfect Grade 1/60. I'd always wanted to try a Perfect Grade, but new that given their expense, they deserved to be … Continue Reading ››
