Name that Gundam! (WIP - 0101)

Name that Gunpla!

I signed up for a local Gundam Model Kit Competition near the end of May.

Deadline to sign up for it was July 15th, and the deadline to hand in the model is August 1st. 

My gunpla work area.

I didn't start building this until a week ago, and this is what I have done so far. 
I snap-built it and took the armor parts off so that I can paint the innerframe.

The innerframe.

The innerframe is pretty much ready to be painted. I will be using spray cans since I don't own an airbrush. This is my first time, fully painting a model kit. Hopefully, it will turn out alright.

Some of the outer armor.

I won't be doing any mods since I don't have the skills nor the experience to do so. I will only be changing the colour scheme to white/shades of metallic blue and maybe some metallic green.

The rest of the armour.

Have you figured out what Gundam it is?

Angel has descended from...

The package from Otacute...

Errr.. I mean Angel has arrived from Japan.
Yesterday was a long, tiring day so seeing that a package had arrived from Otacute when I got home last night was very pleasing.

The contents of the package...

What I ordered from Otacute were 2 copies of Dengeki G's August. And just as many figure.fm users have mentioned, Otacute includes some "bonuses" with your orders... they sent me 2 sets of Sci-fi Revoltech Brochure+Stickers. Not a big fan of those, so I won't be using them ^^;. (Anyone wants them?)

Closeup of the box...

This is how the box looks like up close.

The contents of the box...

I remember someone mentioning that she came in pieces, and I assumed you'd need to put together the hands and legs, but it's just the hair, which is no big deal.

Tenshi gattai?!...

This is Tachibana Kanade, aka Tenshi (which means Angel in Japanese), all assembled. Looking good.


Well, I got myself a PS3 about a month ago, so I've been playing with it quite a bit. Along with it, I also got a few games: Little Big Planet (bundled with a controller), Assassin's Creed I & II, Gran Turismo 5 Prologue (was bundled with the PS3), God of War I & II Collection (bundled with the PS3), Armored Core 4, and Final Fantasy XIII. I gotta say, it's really awesome since I am able to watch anime on it using the PS3 Media Server. I was a little disappointed that it wasn't compatible with PS2 Games though.

Now I gotta get myself a job, and buy a new TV, since my current one is a piece of crap.
