MG EPYON OZ-13MS - POSING TIME

 My first time using lights. I suck at it.

Well, here goes.

He is quite bulky.

reminds me of Prince Cedie, hihihih

Ooo, Close up.

aww yiiis.

I was having a hard time posing him but I was laughing all the way.

Halfway through, my action base collapsed, so I made do.
He was just sitting here.

Neo-Zeon!

All in all, I had fun! Despite my action base giving up (the Epyon was quite heavy), I think I took decent poses of him. I really have to learn lighting techniques.... The whole time I was posting this, my brother is screaming "NOOB!". Well, duh?!

I'll probably be posting more of him next week... hihihi Still have a lot of great poses I think he can do!


Now it's time for the next kit who's been waiting his turn....^o^

What Happens When You Don't Clean Your Room

huhu i want to cry..

mi Papa cleaned my room while I was away! Now I can't find my things!

What's worse, the decals for the MG EPYON are missing!

 

I see Wings!

My next project is an MG Gundam Epyon OZ-13MS.

Meh.

I'm taking my time with this one. My Exia was built in only two nights time (for a starter it was quite fast, I heard experts do it in hours). Beside my day job taking most of my weeknights, I leave my kits at home (my workplace and hometown are a region apart so I reside in metro on weekdays). I can only really work on them on weekends. Imagine my anxiety to get out of work every Friday. I guess taking time makes it more special (You know what? I think God is doing that to my love life).

Anyhow, I took this kit for my next project because it looks so bad ass. I read reviews about this and everything looks awesome on their side! Gaijin Gunpla gave it an 85.7% score for review and I'm someone who believes in percentages.

I don't remember Epyon in action so here's a video I'm watching as I update my blog. A final battle between Zechs and Heero.

This is actually an epic fight! Makes me want to see the series all over again! And with this epic video seen, I already have a kit in mind for the next project after this! Awesome, no?

For the mean time, I'm fooling around with the unfinished parts.

That torso looks like a face.

I'm loving her shoulders.

"I'm incomplete, so what?"

Chillin' out on my wee toolbox.

Tried panel lining the head, looks fine.

"Ha! My sexy legs!"

"Rawr! Badass green-eyed feet!"

I actually built the shield first.

"Don't attack me, feet!"

"Nomnomnom"

Ooh, I think this will be lovely.

MG GN-001 Exia Trans-Am Mode

My very first Master Grade. Trans-Am Mode =  Pink. 'Nuff said.

I wanted my first master grade to be feminine in color. It was great that I stumbled upon this kit early  on because it was one of the last stocks in the store for the season.

Since the only series I've seen is Wing (I didn't even finish watching it), I generally didn't have any idea why this was called Trans-Am or why it was pink when I bought it. Thanks to this video, now I know!

As you may know, I am a noob and this kit wasn't built from the best of my abilities. My friend pointed out (after I posted some pics on Facebook) that Exia's eyes were not aligned. So, they were - I didn't try to fix it, though - too lazy. Hihi

Well, you won't be seeing any work-in-progress photos of this kit, though. I didn't find my damn camera until a month after I was done. Plus, edited photos are more fun! ^_^

I had loved working with MG that I think couldn't settle for less on my next kits. Although, my first try at building was on Entry Grades I found on a toy store at the mall. They were cute but I wanted something I can play and have fun with. And Exia was a damn fine creation when it came to articulation! I was all over the place trying to get her nice poses and giggled when I had her in a fine position. hihihi

Yes, that is a rice cooker.

Yah see? Her eyes are not aligned. hihi

Exia with my Entry Grade kits aaaand Chowder.

Not only am I a gunpla noob, I'm also a photography noob.
Classic flash photo.

Quite an awkward pose, but who cares?

Something is sticking out of your legs! 

So, since she was a lonely MG, I tried my photoshop skills so she can have someone to play with - herself.

My favorite edited picture.

The other reason I bought this kit - pink LEDs!

Here We Go!

Hi! I'm Kikay. 

I've recently took up building Gundam Model Kits and now I'm confirming how FUN it is by making this blog!

I wasn't much into watching Gundam (my first and last watched series was Gundam Wing). But with having both real life and online friends exposing and updating you to Gundam, let's just say I couldn't fight them so I joined in.

For now, my gunpla will mostly be out-of-the-box builds. I have been I get my gunpla from Greattoysonline.com. This one was recommended to me by a friend and I haven't really checked out from any other stores yet. Greattoysonline.com have local outlets located near my workplace which is great. 


This blog will be my go-to for posting pictures of my builds. Building them is  exciting - posing them for great dioramas ups the tempo - plus I get to practice my photoshop skills! hihi
