McGundam

Saw this on the internet a few days ago and I thought it was rather interesting. Maybe I'll do the same for one ofmy kits

SD Freedom W.I.P

Here's what I've done to the SD Freedom Gundam so far

Used some tape to cover the areas so I won't go over it with paints

Looks a little unprofessional but hey, it's my 1st time.

This is the end result. Not too bad for a 1st timer.

What I have.....

Alright guys, in this post I'm gonna show you what kind of tools and paints that I'll be using to get started on my Gundam kits

I've started work on the SD Freedom Gundam today. What I did was to remove all the parts from the tree and sanding down all the ends to make it smooth, after that i wet-sand all the pieces with a 1000 grit sand paper and finally wash them with soapy water. Right now they're sitting in the room to dry. Hopefully tonight i can start to decide how to go about painting them.

That's all the updates for now.

New buys

Sorry for the lack of updates, been quite busy recently with work.

Anyway, bought quite a few stuffs today.

Got myself some brushes, paints and a scribber. I also got myself 2 new SD Gundam kits, Strike Gundam and the OO Raiser.

Strike Gundam

OO Raiser

I've kinda started on the strike but I'll need to get more stuffs from H.A.G before i could finish it.

So stay tuned or further updates
