WIP 2: RG GAT-X105 - Sword Striker Pack


After finishing the Skygrasper proper, I moved onto the Sword Striker Pack and content for GoodGuy Dan's contest. I started by trimming and cleaning almost all of the parts (including the dark blue seen above) before beginning assembly.

Unlike with the Skygrasper, I'll be using an enamel wash on the Striker Packs and the Strike itself. It gives better results overall, even if it is a little more time consuming.

WIP: RG GAT-X105


Time to get started on the RG Perfect Strike Gundam that I'm building for the GoodGuyCompetition being run by GoodGuy Dan. I decided to start by building the weapons and the Skygrasper, even though the Skygrasper isn't even being entered. The plan is to panel line, sticker with the awesome RG stickers and top coat. Then some pictures.

I'm really only building the Skygrasper so I have somewhere to put the weapons as I build them.

Entered a Contest

GoodGuy Dan is running the 2014 Good GuyCompetition and I'm finally confident enough in my skills to participate. I'll be building an RG Perfect Strike. Partly to clear out my backlog, and partly because the HG Perfect Strike was an absolutely terrible kit and doesn't deserve a place on my shelf.

This will be a straight build, just panel lines, stickers (RG stickers are awesome) and top coat. Look for build blog coming soon.
