Behold, the first work in progress shot of my MG Banshee.

So far things are going okay. Although the paint I'm using does a good job of exposing all the little flaws from failed sanding attempts. Plus I'm almost out. Already.

Look what I built today...

The new "Mega Size" 1/48 scale RX-78-2 Gundam. It's huge!

I should have a full fledged review up sometime tomorrow.

I ordered some grey Unicorn Gundam decals for use on my upcoming Banshee conversion. They've arrived, and I'm not happy.

This is the image used by the eBay seller,

This is closer to the actual color,

Completely different colors, won't go with my color scheme at all. Fucking hell, they'd better refund my money.

Check out the kick ass box art for the new MG Unicorn to be released later this month.

I'm assuming this is just for the regular version. I figure the HD + Cage kit will be slightly different.

After a decent delay my MG GN-X has been finished. (All images link to Flickr)

It was a surprise to all when Bandai announced that the second kit to get Master Grade treatment from Gundam 00 would be the GN-X. It's not exactly one of the fan favorites, I really hated it since day one. However I decided to order one of these new kits and hope for the best. When the order shipped I was indifferent. When I started construction I was filled with annoyance. Now that she's finished, I'm filled with a sort of odd, warm, fuzzy feeling.

While I await a shipment of decals to finish my MG Nu I started on a little packaged I received yesterday, the MG GN-X!

If it wasn't for work (which I shouldn't blame too much, with out it I wouldn't have this kit) I could have had a full fledged review up before Dalong. Oh well! Anyhow, check out these quick shots...
