Fullmetal Alchemist – Episode 47 Review
Episode 46, "Human Transmutation"
*****SPOILERS*****
Synopsis: Tucker takes Alphonse into the basement of the factory where he’s been trying to bring back Nina. He requests that Alphonse let him use the Philosopher’s Stone, but Alphonse reveals his hesitance, since he is the Stone. At Dante’s estate, Izumi provides evidence that Hohenheim and Dante had once been lovers, 400 years earlier. Roy Mustang and Alex Louis Armstrong, now promoted, are sent North. Fuhrer King Bradley takes a secret elevator to Dante’s lair, where Envy appears, angered by missing the chance to kill Hohenheim. In exchange for information, Alphonse allows Tucker to use the Philosopher’s Stone to bring to life his Nina chimera. Edward is confronted by Lust and Wrath, trying to use Scar’s locket to immobilize Lust. Lust betrays Wrath, however, wanting Edward to make her into a human with the Stone. The two make their way to the factory. Tucker’s Nina chimera is made, but is barely alive. Sloth arrives, pointing out that a piece of Al is now gone.
Wounded ReZEL WIP Update 02: Pastel Woes
For my damaged ReZEL I decided to give pastel weathering a shot. Everything was going good until I gave it a top coat of Testor’s Dull Cote. All of the pastel soaked up into the coat and nearly disappeared.

The outcome was better than I expected, but completely out of left field. (Better because I expected to wake up and see an unsalvageable mess)
The whole situation is no different than when a dirty car gets hit with a little bit of rain. Dirty little water spots.

Fullmetal Alchemist – Episode 45 Review
Episode 45, "A Rotted Heart"
*****SPOILERS*****
Synopsis: Dante reveals her and Hohenheim’s secret: they made a Philosopher’s Stone ages ago and used it to keep switching bodies to remain young and healthy. However, Hohenheim disappeared, so Dante had homunculi prepare situations for alchemists to create a Stone so she could continue living that way. Alphonse gets a phone call from Shou Tucker and hides it from Edward. Back in Central, Colonel Mustang stands before the military/government officials, claiming that the Elric brothers have gone to another country. He begins to ask pointed questions about Juliet Douglas. Edward and Alphonse disguise themselves for travel and take a train out of town. Hohenheim tells Dante that their souls are breaking down from constant body transfers and she says that she plans to use the Stone that Scar made inside Alphonse. Sloth appears, catching Hohenheim off guard and subdues him. Dante opens an alchemic Gate through Rose’s baby and sends Hohenheim through it. Ed and Al escape from the military and Ed goes to visit Izumi while Al decides to contact Tucker. Roy and Alex are assigned to go attack the North where the brothers are said to be, knowing that it’s a trap. Edward asks if Izumi has a piece of her dead child to use against the homunculus she made. Alphonse meets Tucker at a factory.
