So the plan is to do the build/tutorial series with a Red Horn, actually. I figure that'll give me a bit more to work with than the Gator. But we'll see. I'll be traveling a lot these two months, and I need to finish that friggin' Strike Gundam first. As much as I love gunk washes, the 5 days drying time really draws things out. Sigh.

5 days? High humidity environment?

5 days? High humidity environment? Yeah, it's pretty humid in Switzerland, but I think 5 days for a gunk wash is about normal. You're dealing with oil paints without any thinner.

Not really a new blog, but I just finally finished my PG Aile Strike Gundam and posted a Youtube video: youtu.be/xkWFpzzOls8Long writeup and proper photoshoot probably sometime next month.

That Aile Strike Gundam is HUGE! I'm guessing it costs more than $5, right? Beautiful paint job, man!

Weathering hides crimes like a mob lawyer, mang.

Yeah, I've always had a soft spot for the Sazabi. Actually the MG Ver Ka (which looks very similar to the new RG) was basically the kit that got me hooked on Gunpla.

The other kit that has always sparked my imagination was Palace Athena... just one big, bad-arse 'mech!
