Hey all, did you know I had an Etsy Store? Complete with customizable Gunpla bases, stickers, and more! Please come checkout my odd collection of wares. I've also got a separate site, FalldogHobby.com, with more in depth product info. It, like everything in my life, is currently a WIP 😃

Want to see what kits and builds I'm getting into? Follow me on Instagram!

Have Gunpla questions? Want to chat Gundam or just about anything else? You can find me (and a whole lot of better builders) on the official Discord of r/Gunpla and r/Gundam

Layman's Gunpla Guide - Changelog

I used to have a log of all the Guide's updates and changes. Then I put a "New" tag on updated and new tutorials on the main menu. However, some folks don't swing by the site that often so having a full out change log going forward can't hurt. I just gotta remember to keep things updated...
