これは次のプラモでしょう。楽しみ!#ガンプラ Image
And there’s the snap build. Gotta rethink a couple of things I had in mind for this kit before I start prepping it for paint. #ガンプラ Image
I decided to work on the GM Striker because I wanted a quick build.

And then I started scribing. #ガンプラ ImageImageImage

This was supposed to be the “All painted up and done!” photo, until I had to redo a few parts after misadventures during assembly. #ガンプラ Image

I had other plans, but my daughter walked into the room asking “Can we work on Charmander now?” so of course we’re working on Charmander now.

This one’s gonna need a bit of a think. Looks like I can erase the seams other than the arms. Fun little challenge; will get to it after I restock on some paint.

All I can say is that it’s part of the process.

Also, some mistakes were made. Maybe.

Gonna see if I can turn this into something worth entering into this year’s GBWC. #ガンダム #ガンプラ #プラモ #gundam #gunpla #plamo Image
The best thing about these HGBD Core + [Unit] kits is that you’ll end up assembling the Core Gundam well before you’re done with the rest of the kit.

And then you’ll get sidetracked giving it all kinds of poses. #ガンダム #ガンプラ #プラモ #gundam #gunpla #plamo

Here’s the OOB snap build shot.

Built an Earthree before so I’d like to doll up the Veetwo to match. That means a fair bit of scribing and masking while I sort out my concept.

(That Core Gundam sure can balance!)

Looks like we chose you, Bulbasaur. #ポケモン #プラモ #pokemon #plamo
There it is, OOB. Feels like the easiest Pokémon Quick kit we’ve built yet.

Should be straightforward to paint with some masking involved. There are also seams I’d like to erase on the larger pieces. #ポケモン #プラモ #pokemon #plamo
Trying out some shading. #ポケモン #プラモ #pokemon #plamo

Up next: a robot cat from the future. #ドラえもん #プラモ #doraemon #plamo
There it is, OOB. A good looking Entry Grade a child can put together (took my daughter less than ten minutes).

Easy enough to erase the seamline on the head, but there’s one on the body I might have to leave be.

Alright. Time for something…different. #プラモ #plamo Image
Gonna think long and hard about painting this kit. The printed details will be hard to match, even with the accompanying decals. #プラモ #plamo Image
WIP. This is as far as I got today. #プラモ #plamo Image

I was pretty zen about being put on hold on the phone by my bank.

And then they asked me identity verification questions that I didn’t know off the top of my head.

AND THEN the line went busy and I got cut off from the call.

I’d say it’s time to switch banks.
The process is all about what’s convenient for the bank, not the customer:

- Kept me on hold.

- Asked what my credit limit is (I don’t spend a lot and don’t breach it, so it’s not top of mind).

- Asked for personal info that isn’t top of mind (SSN or TIN).
For the record, I knew my TIN. But how likely is it for anyone to be in a position to recite theirs from memory?

Besides…to get to THAT POINT, I already keyed in the OTP sent to my mobile phone. So what the f*ck was the point of that if it’s not good enough to transact?
