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
Pika? Pika. PIKA! #プラモ #ポケモン #plamo #pokemon Image
Done! Before the lightbox treatment, here are the paint that went into it. #プラモ #ポケモン #plamo #pokemon Image

Was cleaning out my phone’s camera roll and realized I had a few WIP shots of the HMM Blade Liger I forgot to share. So here they are for posterity.

First, head and Zoid core. #ゾイド #プラモ #zoids #plamo
Next: front third of the torso. It’s got this articulation gimmick that allows you to extend the boosters beneath the armor piece.

The tubing is actually bare plastic on which I applied a good topcoat then a black panel wash. Came out great.

#ゾイド #プラモ #zoids #plamo
The middle third of the torso’s where you find the articulating pieces on which to attach the Liger’s blades and AB boosters. #ゾイド #プラモ #zoids #plamo

Ever just wake up and tell yourself, “I’d really like to start building a Liger today”? #ゾイド #プラモ #zoids #plamo Image
Liger project got sidetracked; been busy this week. It’s just as well as there’s a lot of kit to work on (there’s actually a divider in the box).

Still test fitting, but I think I have to paint and assemble parts by section to get it done. #ゾイド #プラモ #zoids #plamo ImageImageImage
WIP: Snap fit of the head assembly (sans canopy). Looks so good. Now to figure out how to paint it. #ゾイド #プラモ #zoids #plamo Image

Back at it. #ポケモン #プラモ #pokemon #plamo Image
Eleven minutes later… #ポケモン #プラモ #pokemon #plamo Image
Of the Pokemon Quick kits I’ve worked on the seamlines on Mew are going to take some work. Can live with the arms; it’s the neck and ankles that are problematic. Don’t know if I’ll be able to hide them. #ポケモン #プラモ #pokemon #plamo ImageImage

Here we go, boys and girls. Time to get working on the Most Awesome Haro Ever. #gunpla #plamo #ガンプラ #プラモ Image
Progress. Torso’s a little tight, so have to figure that out. Probably need to use some putty to fill in a few voids. But pleasantly surprised that the rear vernier has some articulation. #gunpla #plamo #ガンプラ #プラモ ImageImage
I. Am. Excite!!! #gunpla #plamo #ガンプラ #プラモ ImageImage

次のプロジェクトはまたタイムボカン。来週に始まって作りましょう。#プラモ #タイムボカン Image
This may very well be the first time I’ve come across a runner with clear parts that you’re supposed to paint with non-clear paint.

(I love clear parts and am very conflicted about this.)

#プラモ #タイムボカン ImageImageImage
Head and torso assembly’s gonna be challenging.

Some questionable engineering to accommodate gimmicks in the head.

Then it’s a very tight fit to snap the torso in place. Also gonna have to accept a seamline on the underbelly. #プラモ #タイムボカン ImageImageImage
