Project: Dead Master

Time to get back into the throes of painting more garage kits! Recently acquired another to the “to do” pile in the shape of the Charagumin Shinguji Sakura from Volks so I can’t let the pile get any bigger!

I asked some groups online as to which kit I should build next out of the [...]

Are you afraid of the dark?

I think it’s about time to call this one in! Afterall, her kit wasn’t exactly the most complicated thing I’ve seen (clocking in at a mere 8 parts for the whole thing) so once painting started, it was pretty smooth sailing, tho I have to say that the Games Workshop liquid green stuff was a [...]

Project: Occult Gakuen (part 2)

Not too much of an update this time. Heck, I’m a little surprised that there’s an update at all! My “little” mecha anime ops project is harder than I thought and Bioshock Infinite just came out so don’t be shocked if the project stalls for a while!

Currently, the parts have been cleaned (mostly) and [...]

Project: Occult Gakuen

It’s great that my next project pretty much fell into my lap after I completed Taiga. Furthermore, she’s a really simple kit as well, a mere 7 parts!! The only down side is that there’s a lot of cleanup to do. But here’s a prelim build of Kumashiro Maya

Quite a few seam lines [...]

A Wild Taiga Appears!

Told you that it wouldn’t take long to finish this project, and on an even better note, I think I’m completely out of my melancholy! Regarding kit building at least. Taiga had a lot to do with it though. The sculpt was absolutely wonderful and so easy to work with! After looking at some of [...]

Project: Taiga

Well, this post is a little late! I spent the evening which I should have spent writing the weekly post watching the Sony PS4 reveal. I had hoped that they would give enough info to make things interesting but alas, it was not meant to be. I found the event to be rather lacklustre and, [...]

Winter Wonder Festival 2013 Garage Kits

Well, Wonder Festival happened over the weekend, which happened to coincide with chinese new year so I was with family while the event was going on but I still managed to remain mostly abreast of the situation. There was a nice spread of figures this time around and even some PVC figures which caught my [...]

Here comes a New Challenger!

After last weeks post, It may not come as a surprise to hear that I am rather fond of the Xeno- series. Specifically, Xenogears and the Xenosaga Trilogy. Regular readers will also know that I am not averse to dropping a considerable sum to acquire a particular GK when I think it’s worth it. Afterall, [...]

Re-light my fire

First off, apologies to anyone out there who was expecting a blog post last week. I got floored by a particularly stubborn virus and was completely out of commission for pretty much the entire week and then some. Damn thing is still kicking about, even now! but it did give me a chance to watch [...]

A little something on the side

Nothing really to update this week. Been rather busy with Christmas preparations (I really hate this part of the year!) and looking at Noel at the moment gets me depressed. There are so many pinholes on her, I’ll be working on her for ages to get those sorted out. The parts are a complete mess! [...]
