T-Hobby chisels from Hobbies Corner arrived today!

Wahoo! I ordered a T-Hobby chisel tool set, 6 pieces of MSG option parts and 4 pieces of clear acrylic 6mm 12 inch long rods last week at hobbies corner. I think I was able to confirm the cost and send the money through paypal around Thursday and I have it already today ( Monday ). Fast delivery... good stuff man!



The chisel set is a very welcome addition to my tools! Now I could do variations in terms of width for some panel line scribing. I will test and practice this tool some time soon and will show you the results. Hopefully I learn to use this tool fast enough so that I can use it in my Saz build.



The chisel set looks really nice inside its leather case... it also came with 8 sheets of sand paper in different grits. The chisel is made up of stainless and it looks pretty solid. This is my nicest tool so far... Heck my Tamiya HG Airbrush III does not even have a plastic case much more a leather one. lol



I still have around 40+ packs of MSG option parts but I ordered 6 more packs that will specifically be used for the steam punk mods of the Sazabi. I also ordered 4 pieces of 6mm clear acrylic rods, they are 12 inch long. I was actually surprised that the rods are 12 inch long.



One piece of this rod could mount 2 to 3 kits depending on the height of the kit on top of the dio. This will be my first time to use clear acrylic rods as mounts, I have been using stainless and brass rods before which sticks out like a sore thumb. However, my Sazabi is not in flight pose... too heavy I think for the acrylic rods. hihi... the acrylic rods are for another project. Here are some pics...

My camera run out of juice, I will try to take better pics later...anyways thanks for dropping by! XD

P.S. Thanks a ton to oldman for the fast delivery and the free MSG option part! Do try ordering at hobbies corner... great service indeed! XD

WALX Mobile Suit Gundam Dom and Acguy clips

Ello guys, I got the green Zaku clip a while back and got the Dom and Acguy clips a couple of weeks ago. I really like this clips / keychains. The design is pretty straight forward and simple but resembles the Zeon MS a lot.



I took a lot of pics of these keychains earlier today before my dad's new pet came, the black baboy / pig. hihi. I plan to collect the other clips, all of them actually... but I am in the hunt for the Char Zaku in particular. Btw, a clip costs 150 Php... pretty reasonable but a bit expensive for a keychain of course. XD

Thanks for dropping by! hope you liked the clips. hihi XD

my Dad's newest pet! " black baboy "

Nonsense non - gundam post guys! I was taking photos of my 2 WALX Gundam keychains and an Aang figure when an old car ( jeepney ) arrived in front of my dad's house and gave him a sack of something. My dad was all smile when he carried the sack to the backyard.



Then, I with my little son Basti followed him to the backyard to check what was in the sack... then to our astonishment ( specially my little boy ) we saw a black piglet! wahaha... Basti run for the camera shouting "  black baboy "... lol, It was a really funny moment to see my little boy amazed at such a small almost ordinary thing for us adults.



Anyways, here are some pics of my dad's newest pet! the " black baboy ". btw " baboy " means pig in english. XD

thanks for dropping by! will be taking care of this black baboy til it is good for roasting already. My little boy Basti we should not roast the pig...he said it is " bad ". lol

Bombed City Corner Gundam base by Kriz

Ello guys I just want to share the recent work by a really really good modeler friend from the US. I present to you a Bombed City Corner Gundam base by KRIZ COOK aka RMAHZA in ZeroGunz.com. I saw this last night at ZeroGunz but waited for more pics before I could blog about it.



Rmahza is really fond of experimenting with paints, paint finishings and painting techniques. He does so with jars of alclad and other paints unknown to me at least. hihi. I have been acquaintance with this guy since he joined ZeroG and we have been supporting each other's build ever since. Naturally he is a BIG contributor to MAC at facebook also.



Rmahza went AWOL in the Gunpla scene for a period of time to attend to personal reasons... honestly it was my first time to worry at a fellow modeler. Thus I researched his email and sent a message to him, anyways, all is well now with this guy and he is now amazing us with his painting experiments and now a very very well built Gundam base.



This build is but a practice build for Rmahza, he is planning to create a ruined city diorama soon... and we are all looking forward to it at ZeroGunz. The ruined building is casted and the other parts scratch built... The realistic painting of the dio is made this special... it is mostly about painting when in comes to dios after all. Nyways, here are some more pics of this fantastic build...

MG Sazabi WIP - further mods on the skirts and chest part

Ello guys, This might be my last photo of " the crOtch " ( MG Sazabi ) in its diorama... I do not want to ruin the surprise on the finished outcome ;). So my next updates are going to be close up photos of the specific areas or parts I have modded.



Anyways, " the crOtch " which inspires fear and DESIRE to the hearts of it's enemies will be further modded tonight... I might start detailing the dangling scrotum, I mean front skirt first and work around the other parts of the kit.



I have reshaped the boob / chest part with Selley's epoxy putty and was succesful in making the shape look more like a P@#&S! lol. I have also added a large vent type thingee on the front skirt and was successful in making it look like a $^%(^! I have to sand and refine the shape of the front skirt later.



I have also finished the basic shape of the rear skirt and will sand / file the excess pla plates ( intentional ) along the edges. Anyways, here are some pics...

In case you still could not figure out why the mods looks like a crotch so far... The inspiration of this build is mainly based on Zluca's Schanabelgun III and the " The O " sketch art that Gundam Guy posted a while back. here are the pics...

Thanks for dropping by! til next post! XD
