After some work I’ve completed the wing structure for my PG Strike Freedom, and painted ’em.

Instead of a blueish-black they’re now a flat black (with a bit of temp gloss coat to protect the paint for the time being).

The gold bits have all been repainted and they look fantastic.

For comparison, a straight build shot from Dalong…

The new gold looks a lot better.

I’m starting to realize the extent of work that’s going to go into this kit. Not just because it’s huge (I giggled like girl when I saw how fucking massive this kit is after attaching the wings for the first time) but because the complex mix of dull and gloss pieces. read more

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood – Episode 27 ENGLISH DUB Review

Episode 27, Banquet at the Crevice"


 

*****SPOILERS*****

Synopsis: In a dream, Hohenheim talks to a younger Pinako about his sons, the country, and humans. Another version of him appears and reveals that "Pinako" is really him trying to defend the human race. In the end, he dreams of confirmation of his beliefs by Trisha and the people he knew in Resembool. Waking up, Hohenheim continues on his journey.

At long last, my zombie Nemo project has finally come to a close.* The original project started way back in October 2009 and two out of the four Nemo kits were completed less than a month after. The display base never came together as I would have liked and sat outside on my deck for at least a year before I finally tossed the whole thing. The remaining two Nemos remained boxed up, parts carefully separated and labeled, half painted, until late December 2010. (I actually have a fifth, unbuilt, Nemo around here somewhere) read more
