September Loot & Gunpla WIP

September Loot!~

Summer’s gone, autumn has arrived… and along with it, some loot ^^.

Yui-chan

Mio arrived in the first week of this month, but was too lazy to post about it until now :P. Boa Hancock arrived on Monday and Azu~nyan on the next day. As for the manga, I saw them in local stores and decided to buy them. I ordered hebi-hime from Otacute and they along with it came the above Yui poster.

BRS Nendoroid and Figma should've arrived before Azu~nyan, they were supposed to be shipped 5 days earlier... I hope they arrive safe.

MG Wing Gundam

Anyways, about 2 months ago, I mentioned that I had entered a Gunpla contest. Unexpected problems arrived and I didn’t finish the model. I had problems applying the white paint and didn’t have enough time to fix the problem, so I didn’t hand in the model and left it unfinished as you can see above. Later, I did some research and found out what I did wrong. Instead of applying several thin coats of the white paint… I applied one thick, uneven coat of paint which ended up looking like crap.

MG Blue Frame Gundam Astray

Since then, I’ve been kinda working on my Gunpla backlog. I started building the MG Blue Frame Gundam Astray. It’s left unfinished for now because I don’t like the blue and will be painting it metallic blue later, also thinking of painting the orange parts silver.

MG Exia Gundam's

After the Astray Blue Frame, I decided to build MG Exia. I bought the regular one and the Ignition Mode a few months ago, so that I could display the regular Exia and Exia Repair I. They’re left unfinished, since I’m planning to paint it, but will do so later when we get better weather.

MG Shin Musha Gundam

And now I’m starting to build MG Shin Musha Gundam. I placed the runners on my work area, but haven’t touched them for days.

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?
