Easing back into hobby mode. #プラモ #ポケモン #plamo #pokemon Image
There. Looks simple enough. Just a few seams to cleanup on the body, but everything else looks straightforward.

I am gonna turn it either red or pink before I make it yellow, though. #プラモ #ポケモン #plamo #pokemon Image
In general, I think of working on these Pokemon Quick!! Collection kits as practice for removing seams. Think I did a decent job on this one. #プラモ #ポケモン #plamo #pokemon Image
I did say I’d turn it either red or pink before it would end up yellow again. Decided on red. Photos or it didn’t happen. #プラモ #ポケモン #plamo #pokemon ImageImage
Done! Before the lightbox treatment, here are the paint that went into it. #プラモ #ポケモン #plamo #pokemon Image

The next hobby project. Gonna be a slow burn (no pun intended). #プラモ #ガッチャマン #plamo #Gatchaman #GForce Image
This is my first time working on an Academy kit and I’m not confident I can snap build prior to painting it.

Looks like the best approach would be to paint all the pieces then jump straight to final assembly.

Gonna be a trip!

Been a while, but now got my hobby gear out of storage and worked on the kit I started a year ago.

Applied some primer to all the red parts; easing my way back into the process.

Hope to try out new paints come the weekend. #プラモ #ガッチャマン #plamo #Gatchaman #GForce 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.

#ポケモン #プラモ #pokemon #plamo Image
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
