Banshee

And it begins again...

Just as soon as I finished building my MG Banshee, things begin again. The 6th, and perhaps final, member of my MG Unicorn family has arrived - the MG Full Armor Unicorn.

It comes after my MG Delta Plus placed first in Gundam Australia Forum's Delta Group Build. A special thanks to Sonar, of Gundam Australia, and Ryan Sabourin of HLJ.

Time to ~~start~~ keep building!

MG Banshee - Unboxing Impressions

I just wanted to take a quick minute to share my early impressions of the latest member of my MG Gundam Unicorn collection, the Master Grade Banshee. P.S. Be forewarned, it's incredibly late after a long day at work and this article is probably full of incoherent sentences and half finished thoughts.

Banshee WIP: Day 3

Some more progress today. Lessons learned so far? Resin fucking sucks. Despite a good cleaning my primer acted completely different to resin than it does normal plastic. It also has the tendency to randomly break, as you'll see when I post close up shots. Worst of all, is that the antlers came all fucked up. I did my best to bend them back into place but they're still bent. Another thing that sucks about resin is that you don't really see minor imperfections until you paint. I had to clean them up several times followed by a bit more paint in order for them to look as good as they do now.

Banshee WIP: Day 1

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.

About Us

Otaku Revolution is run by myself, Falldog, and long term associate PenguinTruth. We've had a few other contributors over the years as well, including Juu-kuchi and singled_out. It's been mainly just a place for our various nerd musings since 2008. At some point I thought it would be nifty to have a full blown anime site, but tallent and ambition aren't always hand in hand.

OtakuRevolution.com was born from another site, OtakuRevolution.net, which was a web forum and sprite comic site dating back to the early 2000s. I was a member at that time, and somehow snagged the .com TLD when it popped up. The Otaku Revolution name lives on in remembrance of that simpler time.
