Lately I have been catching up on my Gunpla stash pretty well. Here’s the start I got on the MG Gundam Exia. The picture above shows I needs to straighten out the decals. As with all of the current Gunpla, this one looks like it has a lot of potential.
I’m returning back to work tomorrow [...]

This one was rated “Okay”. The stiffness in some of the joints is a huge problem. On the original (and virtually identical) MG F91, I did not have that worry.
Now I am moving on to the MG Gundam Exia Ignition mode version. I’ll take more photos.

I had some down time today, so I continued to work on the Harrison Madyn blue F91. All that’s left now is the weapons. I’ll pose the assembled model next to the Crossbone Gundam as well as the original F91.
The lack of poly caps is good for posing the model but bad for moving the [...]

I can’t read the Japanese text, but this method for lighting up the MG Exia’s head is very cool. See the YouTube video for the finished work.

I’m continuing to go through my backlog of master grade Gundam models and I am now working on the Harrison Madyn blue F91. When I built the other MG F91, I left off all the decals. This time I plan to put on most of them.
I’ll post more photos as I continue building this one. [...]

Saw this on Ngee Khiong:
It’s a scary diorama that anyone who collects and builds Gunpla can relate to. Not that I’m like that, no, no way…

After I completed the Crossbone Gundam I started the 1/144 HG 00 Raiser designer colors version. Not a bad build and I put on almost all of the decals.
My son built the 1/100 00 Gundam and this one had shared a lot of the same flexibility. With HG models, the build time is very quick [...]

And the struggle to reduce my Gunpla backlog continues! I’ve just finished assembling the MG Crossbone Gundam X-1. It’s the pirate Gundam and it’s very cool.
Things to consider with this model:
No poly caps! Cool since models are meant to be posed and not played with. The F91 is the same way.
It’s very difficult to pose [...]

I’ve been trying to catch up on my back log of Gunpla and I assembled the MG Gyan. As master grades go, it was “Eh”. The build was not particularly difficult and there were not many surprises.
It’s a heavy model and posing it is difficult. The shield is huge. If I wanted to pose it [...]
