HG Gundam Barbatos Lupus Rex
This required a decent amount of paint to get it close to color accurate, but I'm happy with the result.

WIP Ground Gundam diorama. I have the colours painted and the splash effect added. Now I just need to add a gloss onto the water surface with some floor polish.
This Entry Grade Gundam has been a test bed for a whole bunch of techniques. From 3D modeling to 3D printed parts to kitbashing to water effects. It's a cheap kit, that makes it so much easier to just go at it without feeling any risk of failure. There's still a lot to go with the detailing and painting it.

MG Unicorn Gundam (OVA)
This is definitely a kit of highs and lows. The pink plastic almost glows, and the silhouette is intimidating. However, the transformation gimmick causes issues with Unicorn mode and general stability, which is quite unfortunate.

Finished the Bandai FRS Kamen Rider Geiz. It's about 1/12 scale and the construction is pretty simple with plastic on plastic joints. 2018 was a time when Bandai moved on from Polycaps but hadn't adopted C clip joints for ease of disassembly. The build felt like the designers didn't put much thought into it and there was very little clever engineering. All his little accessories needed painting, mini painting experience really helped me there.

Finished it! Music is a little overkill but this was hella fun to build.

First completed model kit of the year. Also great practice to test image heavy write ups, do a little photography, and play around in RawTherapee again.

Will take better photos later for Model kit Monday, but Miku is now finished. I used this one of 3 i built last weekend to experiment on since it was the most unpainted and least detailed out of the box. Learned and relearned a lot doing this kit and its made me excited for doing a few others.

HG Qubeley Revive
This is a pleasantly funky design and a fun build.

I finally assembled the #figurerisestandardamplified Blue-Eyes White Dragon. It's been a good couple of months for assembling my "wishlist" kits; I've wanted this one since I started the hobby.
Definitely be careful on the wing attachment joints. I snapped one and had to repair it with plastic glue and wire.

Built Bandai's 1/12 Darth Vader model kit this weekend. I really love all of their Star Wars kits, though they no longer seem to be produced. Plenty available on the secondary market though and priced pretty reasonably. Torn between C3PO and a Stormtrooper for my next acquisition.
I put the stickers on just to put some color on, but maybe I'll get around to giving him a paint job someday. They're good enough for arms length viewing.

Surprisingly I'm rather on time with this milestone/update! Yesterday the last of the decals has been applied and the Miranda-class model has been put away until my Birthday in a few months.
We ended up using third-party decals because the supplied set was very low quality. We also got some additional detailing decals we would not've had otherwise. Surprisingly the decal we struggled with the most was the ones for the phaser turrets - which wasn't something I was personally expecting. Overall I'm pleased how the entire thing has came out: it looks super pretty (even with the lights off) and I could just look at it for ages! 👀
I think I will take a few photos when I do get this model on my birthday... but the project is basically done, and I'm surprised how quick it (relatively) took to build the model considering me and Dad started at the beginning of April! :apartyblobcat:

I bought some glow-in-the-dark paints a while ago and I decided to try painting a #Gundam with them. It turns out that dollar-store glow-paint isn't exactly the greatest if you want an even coat, but I think it turned out okay, although the glow effect was too faint to really show up on-camera (looks better in person.)
The model is an Entry Grade Build Strike Exceed Galaxy and the colour scheme is loosely based on Action Master Thundercracker.

CW: Epilepsy Warning: Bright Flashing Lights
Once everything dried, a test of al the lights (including a red LED strip inside the torpedo launchers that was added during the assembly process) to make sure everything works before the finishing touches are added. I recorded a quick video showing the entire lighting kit at work! :apartyblobcat:

Another update, another month where I didn't get around to doing it. 😅
A lot of progress once again has happened: The navigation lights (single red/green and white LED bulbs) has been added and soldered into a central wiring loom. A logic board (that's part of the lighting kit) has been stuck in place with silicone, and is connected to the wiring loom for each light that's going on.
Next up was the assembly, which involved lining up the warp nacelle struts into place (along with aligning them to be perfectly straight), and then adding the overhead torpedo launchers. Obviously the saucer section is sealed too. About 98% of the model is sealed with silicone; the idea is that if a bulb fails the model can be opened up again if needed. I think this kit has some QC-issues as the tolerances seems too high - leading to large gaps between pieces being prominent...
It's the home run now: some touch-ups of light leakage, and the decals then it's done!

But... what lust is this? And... have I money to have it?

It's hard to believe it's virtually been a month since I last posted an update!
The underneath defector dish section had it's second coat of paint not long after my last post - getting rid of the unintentional "battle damage" look with the 2 greys. It only had 2 coats in total and it has ended up looking very good!
Dad has spent most of the month applying some aztecing decals to the model; we both agreed that this was outside my capabilities (it was borderline with Dad's)... It was frustrating and finically getting the decals on the model, but I think the end result is very visually appealing. An additional coat of white paint was also applied before the photo as the decal's shade of grey was too dark.
Most recently we've started to wire up a lighting kit designed for this specific Reliant model AMT sells. So far only the nacelles are wired up with the LEDs. First time I got to see light pass the clearcoat blue on the inner nacelle. :FishPog:
