| Susanowo from fellow GM, Shuffle Diamond Jack - thanks for this one.. ^^ |
Its been 2/12 months already since my last blog update, yup, quite busy after the New Year's revelry for 2012. But nevertheless, quite a shaky ride with my gunpla addiction.
First stuff, HG Trans-am Susanowo. I really find this kit so cool, makes me feel the power that emanates during its trans-am form. The marbling effect on the color theme itself is quite alluring.
 |
| Too cool to ignore so i grab one for keeps.. |
With the overwhelming appreciation of my first trans-am kit (Susanowo), i bend to target all trans-am unit and collect them. As i visit GTO Greenhills, i haven't found one so i opt to take home the Geara Zulu Guards type. I love how cool the MS looks.

After quite a few weeks, the anticipated Full Armor Unicorn has finally arrived.
 |
| UFA - courtesy of my friend, online seller - ZeroFour Gundam |
First off, i assembled the Jaber base for size comparison against the RFA's TA weapon.
 |
| Quite big and rock solid - UFA's Jaber base |
And then followed suit by the UFA's backpack, test fitted on my Unicorn OVA.
 |
| Just one pair of gattling gun takes at least a day or two for me to complete.. imagine assembling 2 more pairs (total of 3 pairs for UFA).. |
I also found this guy addicted to gunpla, so i decided to keep one for myself..
 |
| Sgt Keroro seriously trying to get the job done.. |
Been trying to keep at pace with the UFA wip, now here's the partially completed backpack using the Unicorn OVA's shield.
 |
| Jaber, Gattling guns, 2 Bazookas and the backpack for UFA, quite time consuming.. |
 |
| Another view without the shield on.. |
And as advertised, Keroro's head can be used to a variety of gunpla model, this kit includes a connector to fit on these scales (HG/MG/SD/RG)

The glorified UFA is quite bulky, it is also quite repetitive on the build task (6 gattling guns / 3 shields / 2 bazookas), i thought it would never end..
 |
| Took me weeks just to finsh the weapons et al |
Finally, after a series of multiple, repetitive task..
 |
| Unicorn OVA + Unicorn FA + Jaber base |
With the addition of side wips, RG Freedom and HG AGE-1 Normal (courtesy of fellow GM - Mykel Balerite)

Did i miss saying that i grab another HG Unicorn (with headbase - from GTO Greenhills) and another trans-am kit from Shuffle.
 |
| Gundam Reborn Trans-am |
One trick for the chrome finish is to use the Magic powder as recommended by fellow GM - Kuya Doyzilla. Thanks Mykel for accomodating your time to fetch this one at GTO. ^^
 |
| MGM Magic powder - scraped just a lil to BF Astray's dagger |
Just found out (accidentally) that the excess powder on the cotton bud can still be use for weathering effect.

My Geara Zulu's wip is in parallel with my elder brother's wip for his Macross 1/72 kit.
 |
| Snap built Geara Zulu - this will also be the first time i'll do some spray painting on a kit |
Unicorn Headbase - masked and sprayed with Gloss Aluminum
 |
| Quite fun on my first try - will be looking forward for more.. ^^ |
One of my targetted action base - Unicorn Action base, now 1 more is missing (Sinanju Action base)

| The painted Unicorn Headbase - partially completed |

Aside from completing a gunpla wip, another addition for the family eh? ^^
 |
