MG RX-178 Mk II A.E.U.G

Update!

After a very long hiatus from doing Gunpla or Gundam Plastic model kits, I'm finally back into the field. Don't worry, its not that I'm leaving from doing Transformer repaints and kitbashes...just wanted to take a short breather and do something that was and shall forever be my passion.

How did I come back? I'd say it would be due to my wife. You see, she is a strong supporter of my hobbies. She's been the one that always kept me in check and despite not knowing much about gundams, she would ask me once in awhile the history or storyline of a particular robot.

Last few months she bought me an MG Astray Blue Frame (there will be a posting about this fella soon...) and that got the ball rolling. I felt alive again after hitting the kitbashing wall. Snap fitted the fella and I felt good...so I got myself more Master Grade kits...and from there on...heh...

Well, I cheated a bit since this particular kit was built awhile back but I couldn't find the time to actually finish him properly...it was just putting on some decals and a nice clear coat to top it off.

So, I dug out my decal set and worked on the fella. And that my dear friends, of how I got myself back into Gunpla.

Stay tune...more to come...can we say...F91?

ROTF Voyager Megatron

Update!

Alright, another one!

So what we have here is another Transformers: ROTF figure that needed to be repainted. Why?

Before:


Yup...thats why.

So this is another comissioned work by my friend (the same TFU Magnus customer) and as I would prefer giving me some instructions and also reference pics. But as usual, I'd add some details of my own to make it more...different.

Enough talk, here he is once its done.

See you all there!

TFU Ultra Magnus

Update!

Yup...another update.

Here we have is a Classics Universe Nemesis Prime repainted to Ultra Magnus. The colour scheme was made given the accurate instructions of my customer which is now a friend of mine. It was kinda tough since working on a black surface and doing it white, I had to do a few layers of paint to make sure that no black can be seen.

Till all are one.

Revoltech Nemesis Prime

Update!

Well what do you know...its 2010...my last update was October 2009...lol...guess a lot of things were happening and got really busy. Thought by having a day job in the education field I'd have a lot more time to work on repaints and kitbashing. I thought wrong.

Don't get me wrong, I have been working on some projects...but at a very slow pace. This is due to my constant tiredness when I get home...and also burned out. Yep. Never thought it would have happened but I got burned out doing repaints. Aside from the comission works I got, made some plans and blueprints to do some of my own custom Transformer figs. But alas...a lot got stuck midway...

Anyhoo, as an opener for 2010 here's something that I worked on a few months back. Did this a while back, but this time around I made it a wee bit different.

Here's the Revoltech Nemesis Prime.

Before:


Now:






More to come. Peace!
