  1. Chibi Optimus PRX78-2ime is a cutie. The model is off Printables, the idea to turn it into this jolly abomination is my own.

  2. EG RX-78-2 Assembled (Day 2)

    It is fully assembled now. My current idea is to gloss coat the whole thing (maybe after painting the eyes and head cameras) and then start into the battle damage process. We'll see how far I actually go with it.

    The kit itself is a study in plastic optimization and not a terrible copy of the Grandad.

  4. EG RX-78-2 Full Weapon Set (In Progress)

    I'll try to continue Akaru's streak for a few days, but my building schedule isn't terribly consistent and I'm out of existing photos.

    I mainly bought this kit for the weapons. I have the RG 2.0 sitting in the box, but I love the Gundam Hammer and I think the Beam Javelin is pretty neat. Since this would be Granddad # 4, I figure I'll use it to practice battle damage and weathering.

  5. MG GTO RX-78-2 (Complete)

    I finally finished all the weapons for the #MasterGrade #GundamTheOrigin #RX_78_2. This thing has so many extras. I didn't even show off any of the effect pieces in this photoshoot. The shoulder cannon is a neat addition to the design (compared to MSG), and I really like the new beam rifle. Overall, a fantastic kit.

    I do still need to paint the pilot figures, but at this point I have a handful that I'll paint all at once.

  6. MG GTO RX-78-2

    No full photoshoot yet, since I haven't finished all its weapons, but here's a brief look at #MasterGrade #GundamTheOrigin #rx_78_2. The LED looks really good in decent light, and it's super bright in the dark (maybe a bit too bright; might paint the inside of the top of its head to keep the light from bleeding through).

    I won't complain too much about the hands (again), but I do wish they had included some fixed pose holding hands.

  8. Thank you everyone who responded to this poll. Looks like I'll make a 1:100 scale Grandaddy #Gundam next. I'll be happy to get the light unit off my work bench, if nothing else.

    Epyon got 2nd, so it'll be next (with a potential break for the MG Ver. Ka Ball).
