  1. Just a little diorama to get me back into the swing of thing, not the best dio but I had a lot of fun putting it together. Cheers all. Brian.
  2. That's a nice big print, he is looking very gruesome already.
  3. Do you know I had thought a out the knee joint be a problem so I have just used my normal paper clip size rod, I think I will go back and add something larger. For the neck and foot/leg fixing I have used 1.5mm drill bits as I have a few.... she seams farly stable fixed to this nice heavy stone. First 2 passes of white primer that I will need to sand back as I have lots of little pin holes in it, probably a combo of cheep crap primer and not washing all the realising gloop from the kit.
  4. Planning the additions to the belt before making it out of some green stuff. Might have a go at a holster... eeek. I have also primed some of the other parts.
  5. Just about 1/2 way through the second session now, and agree with you so far. Cheers I get all my anime fix from 9amine. The adds can be a bit of a pain but they have just about anything on there. I also have a local Gundam shop, Gulpla UK https://www.gunpla.co.uk/ . I went into the shop for the first time yesterday OMG! Bad idea they have so many kicks to pick from and some of the older HG kits that are really hard to find in the UK. I managed to rain it in and just bought the HG Ariel rebuild kit.
  6. Cool, it's good to see these come back from the shelf of doom. I like where this one is going, will you be lighting it, a small side table with a lamp on it might add some moody HH lighting.
  7. Some of that early stuff go for silly money nowadays. These first three are nice set of minis. I like to prime in black or dark grey and then hit them with a spray of white from the top, apex shading I think it is called.
  8. Cheers @Uncle Monty Just about done with this build now, finish the engines off with some lighter weathering than the pod as I wanted them to stand out a bit more in the dio. I still need to decide if I'm putting the screen back on the racer, I have a mechanic I might add and then a few bit to top coat.
  9. A little filling and and made a start on a utility belt, buckle and pouch done. Adding the belt as I don't want to use the hip wing from the kit and I still not sure about the wings on the backpack yet. And a repair elbow that I chipped.
  10. Found this on the great Alixpress so had to get one, it's 16cm long so should be about the right size for a light sword....ahahah.
  11. Cheers all, just finished the figures, little lad was from a Mechawego kit and looks so much like Anakin I had to use him.
  12. I like that, have you seen the Arcane, like the flying surfboards from that show might be fun to build. Cheers.
  13. I have had this kit for a while bought from ebay, didn't know anything about other than the guy said it was an an original kit he bought himself many moons before. I found this description here: Kaiyodo Galactic Lady Legend Yuna Ria Darkness Queen Escort Captain / 1/8 Kit / Galactic Lady Legend Yuna cast https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1205041200&lang=en So I'm making a start on putting her together, its a very nice kit and the resin is solid, just pinning her together and I would like some advice about how to go about getting her on to a base, she is quite heavy and at a funky angle, any help with what's work best. I probably will not paint in these colours, I fancy adding a light saber to her right hand..... Have my little Star War dio to finish before doing any more to this at the moment. Cheers Brian
  14. Not much to add to this other than some base colour on the engines and made a start on a frame. The main reason I have been preping old resin figure, not how she is but she is about 1/6th scale. I will start a tread for her but it a very nice kit. I picked it up from ebay many moons ago. Test fitting my pins.
  15. Thanks, I'm a bit rusty. Cheers. Thought you might like it 😉 So working on the base, door make from clay, what a paint that was, but I think it's made it look a lot more star wars. Lots of ground down pastels for the sand colours.
  16. Have you just finished The Witch from Mercury, what did you think to it? Just go the prequel lined up to watch tonight.
  17. Cheers. This little chap has just arrived from ebay, see what it looks like after some primer, might have to be a bet up old R2 unit.
  18. Not a great picture but here is the start of the pad bay.
