1/144 Arche Gundam

I bring to you the 1/144 Arche Gundam, tho very slim looking compared to other gundams and the size is just about the height of two 1/144s. This guy in my opinion shouldn't be called a Gundam. 1. He doesn't resemble one in any way. 2. He uses fake GN drives (In Gundam 00 the main power engine of a Gundam ahs a lot of importance they're called GN Drives). 3. He looks more like a mass production type model of the Gundam Throne Zwei!

So, why did I get it if I seem to be bitching about it? There's a few reasons. I am collecting the bad guys of Gundam 00 as well as the good guys and no matter how weird it looks, this kit has too much panel lining to do. I wanted to take that challenge to hone my panel lining skills and to make the kit look less plain compared to the straight builds I've seen online.Another reason is that this guy was strong enough to take on both the Seravee and 00 Gundam at one time.

Anyway here's the boxart first:


Amazing boxart! I wish it looked just as sharp as a kit lol


Detail panel lined on both pieces. I painted the bits on the sword gold.


Menacing looking Gundam in my opinion or as I like to call it "GN-X IV Zwei" 


The sword can store behind the arm like the GN sword on Exia or 00 Gundam. This suit was made to counter the 00, with 3 Gn drives even.


A few nice poses you can egt out of it, I said "FEW" because this kit's posability is limited due to its long legs getting in the way.



Gonna slice you up "You little krugis PUNK!"


This is by far the coolest pose I've puleld off with this kit.


The sword is very plain looking compared to the Throne Zwei's sword.


Master Sachez?


Not a very bad kit if you think about it really.


Without a lot of armour it actually looks good.

Anyway this is the end of this one. I'd like to know what other people think fo this kit. That's right, bring on the negative comments about this Gundam. I'm trying to work on the Zabanya Gundam next. Unless my taste changes to another kit. I really wish I'd complete these 1/144 kits sooner. So, I can get to my MGSs.

1/144 Graham's Custom Flag!

Finally finished my 1/144 Custom flag. I didn't colour anything white except for the white pieces that're already white. I wanted to go with more of a Masurao feel to this Flag. As it belongs to Graham Aker it's only fair it kind of resembles the Masurao. that's just my thoughts. Anyway I think it came out pretty good. All the red is painted by me, I tried to be very accurate with this kit as I didn't want to make mistakes.

My name for this Custom Flag would be ummm Masurao Flag?

Box pic:




Looks pretty good standing.


Trying out my new base.

Close up of the face, I can`t seem to show off the very tiny little red eye that I painted.



Probably see it now?



"Graham Aker! Nice to meet you!"


"Don`t forget me now...Gundam!!!!!"

This kit is only for Completists that want all versions of the all the mobile suits that Graham aker used. Or that`s more like me lol. I`d say if you want a regular flag, this kit doesn`t really have the plastic worth your money. Go for Exia. If you want a Flag then go for a Flag. Fair enough I guess?


Next project should be Zabanya Gundam this time lol. I lied the last time because i went forward and picked out the Flag. sigh.

Revoltech Nicholas D Wolfwood

My FIRST revoltech figure and my MOST FAVOURITE. This is the first time I've owned a revoltech figure and it is just awesome to see one of my favourite Trigun characters done well as a figure. This guy is SUPER posable. Now I know how cool revoltech figures are. But, this is going to be my first and last =]

Here's the picture showdown:



Twin pistols *shoot shoot*


 Shoot some more!



Takin over the computer monitor.



 Tired?



Need a smoke I guess?



The war's never over is it?

Shooting me too?


Yeah....keep smoking.....

"Whoa, big guns!"
and with that he shall rip all guns apart?


Dangerous Nicholas......

Anyway, IMO If you've got the money to get a revoltech figure, go for this one. Unless you've some other favourite lol

Gundam Exia repair 2 type F! (Combination of Astrea and Exia)

Well, Since I used the parts from extra Exia repair for my Astrea Gundam, I had all the left over parts from Astrea. I don't like my Astreas to hold the big guns as I'd liek ti better if Exia held them. It's just a personal prefference of which one you like best. one thing I've decided tho. No more Exias for me I think I've got them all now, the Trans-Am is just a useless version as all it has is pink colour all over pft not something of my interest.

Also being type F, Exia will be displayedo n my shelf with all the weapons that came with BOTH Astrea Gundams, the Type F and the regular Astrea's weapons are all Exia's now. Since, my astreas are better off being dual GN blade weilders.

Anyway here you go:



Using extra parts from an Exia repair 2 for this mix.



The outcome without condensors and the articulated thighs that're supposed to be on repair 2 Exia. Well no choice since, I used those parts to create my Astrea and Exia combination.



THIS is what I mean by Type F!



A different face from Astrea parts =] Overloaded and ready to blow the earth apart Exia?



Never really liekd the hsoulder of the original Exia so the repair 2 combination with the original thighs looks awesome!



"Well that's just Prime!"



This is all I've completed for now on my Gundam kits for now, I've lots of backlog to complete and like I said Zabanya is up next! Stay tuned.

SD Gundam Virsago Update!

So, I finally finished off this little guy as well. He's well.........GOING to stay in this mode forever. Why? I like it this way. Tiny little warlord lol Very reminiscent of the original Gundam Virsago that wasn't a super deformed version lol.

If you wanna see how it looks in the other mode here's my link to the post I created a few weeks back on him:

"Come get some!"


Tryin out my lighting base in LIGHT stupid of me.



I know, I know "Turn off the lights to see the red light!" meh W/E lol



That's all for Gundam Virsago aka Super Deformed Gundam virsago my first and last SD Gundam FOR NOW. Let me know how you like it!

1/144 Gundam Astrea Repair 2! (Combo of Exia and Astrea Gundam)

As the title says, I've created an Astrea repair 2! This is not much of a change to the original Astrea, I've only changed the thighs and put the green condensors in to the shoulders and legs. Oh and it uses the GN blade that Exia repair 2 used along with the the red crotch piece. I think it works out as a good combination. Tell me what you think!

Box art is first!


RIPPIN THROUGHHHH!!!

Oh and btw i'm not using the shields on my Astrea pft it's a sword master like Exia for me.



Almost looks a LOT like my Astrea type F If you wanna compare them take a look here.



And one more pic I'll take more pics when I can finish my 1/144 Zabanya! Yep that one's up next!
2 more finished works coming up!
