I haven’t done a custom paint AC kit yet, but that one is just begging for some crystal color amethyst and star bright iron 🤔

Silhouette lighting is what you seek, though this also looks good

If there’s anyone in the #gunpla ecosystem on here heading to American Dream for the Gundam Base Tour and is willing to grab something specific for me, hit me up in my DMs

I can pay you, but I also have an industrial laser and Christmas is coming up, so I’m happy to make stuff for you instead

Long story short, an actual Nazi doxxing ring. Enough people reported them that they went away for like 12 hours and then Elon personally brought them back. The site is dead. If you’re still on there, go lock your account right now

This is actually the prompt for how my gf and I met

My answer was 0 holes, because linguistically a “hole” implies a structural failure. We say, “my straw has a hole in it” when it breaks, not when it works as intended

We’ve been together for almost five years

It’s the video game industry, where the average worker has shipped 0-1 games and leaves the industry in 5 years or less. Pretty sure you’re a senior here

I would apply and I have less experience than you (1 shipped video game, 4 shipped board games)

I personally didn’t click with Hollow Knight until after the Mantis Lords and getting the Mark of Pride charm

I’ve gotten my Delpi stuff in as little as like 3 days. They don’t mess around. I do a bulk order with them a few times a year now

I hope you have some good news in the morning

Metal Gears are interesting because some are robots and others are mechs

Also this isn’t an especially serious post. Post what you want!

I absolutely do not have time for this sort of temptation 😬

I think you’re both insightful and cool. I like reading what you have to say

I know enough *from you* to understand why that’s a horror story 😱

In honor of spooky month, share a 4 word horror story that only someone in your profession would understand

Clear RG Zeong is one of my all-time favorite builds. I added gold holo Delpi decals to mine and they look amazing on it. You’re gonna love it!

Can you guess the mobile suit based solely on the color swatches?

I’m going to get the new Wing Gundam Zero when it’s available and I’m curious to see how it compares. My current Wing RG hierarchy is Epyon > Tallgeese > Wing Gundam. We’ll see if/how that changes!

Jake! @spriteborne.bsky.social · 5d

Overall, a good kit. A few fragile parts, a few loose bits here and there. Great presence and appearance

Somewhat challenging to pose. Low hip mobility, poor torso articulation, backpack always wants to fall off, weak wrists. Holds its pose when it gets there, though

I do recommend it 👍
