Design Changes

In from a design prospective there aren’t a whole lot of differences between the Ver Ka release and the new OVA. Surprisingly the OVA release comes with the exactly same runners as the Ver Ka.

Dragon Ball Kai – Episode 46 Review

Episode 46, "This is the Last Trump Card! Goku’s Extra-Large Genki-dama"


*****SPOILERS*****

Synopsis: Low on strength, Goku is unable to put up any further a fight against Freeza, who toys with him. Gohan wants to help his father, but Piccolo advises against it, as Goku is about to do something. Goku raises his hands to the sky, confusing Freeza, but Kuririn realizes what he’s about to do: create a Genki Dama! Goku uses power from Namek and surrounding planets, while Freeza is unable to figure out what he’s doing. A huge Genki Dama forms in the sky, far bigger than the one Goku made on Earth. Freeza attacks Goku, who continues forming it. Piccolo has Gohan and Kuririn lend him some of their ki so he can distract Freeza long enough for Goku to finish the Genki Dama. Freeza finally sees the Genki Dama and plans to finish Goku off before it’s finished, but Piccolo interrupts. Piccolo tries to hold Freeza off, but nothing he does appears to work. Freeza decides he will kill Piccolo first. read more

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.
