A simple build and a little color correction later, the G-Cannon Magna has been realized! Its pure Okawara charm makes me yearn for a Heavygun #gunpla
1/100 G-Cannon Magna raises its arm-mounted cannons towards unseen enemies beneath it. The G-Cannon grabs hold of its right backpack-mounted cannon while tauntingly pointing at you, specifically. Front view of the entire G-Cannon Magna as it basks in the lighting of its glamor shot. Back view of the G-Cannon Magna and its opulent backpack and massive cannons adorned with wings.

Chipped at the color correction yesterday, and altho it's still a WIP, I like how the G-Cannon is progressing
1/100 G-Cannon Magna now color corrected with Vallejo Black Grey, Flat Yellow, Gundam Marker Metallic Green, and Dspiae MK-02 White for their respective parts on bare red and white plastic. A close-up view of the G-Cannon's face. The red parts had stickers, but they were ill-suited, so I tried my best to match the red with paints I had on hand.

I finally watched F91 (which I enjoyed), and to celebrate, I built an MSV not in the movie but does have spare parts to assemble the original as a nice surprise.
As an aside, I forgot that this was 1/100 scale until I read the runner, MS get small! #gunpla
1/100 vintage G-Cannon Magna partially assembled and lacking color correction. G-Cannon Magna stands in-between a 1/144 vintage ZZ Gundam and 1/144 HG Guncannon MP-type. The G-Cannon is only slightly taller than the ZZ! Spare parts assembled to make the original G-Cannon from the movie in red colors or magna. A G-Cannon Mag- oh wait...

Finally got ahold of the linebacker! Harsh nub marks and minor color correction aside, this is a neat kit, and yet another cool design #gunpla
HG Guncannon Mass Production Type as seen from a high angle. The shoulders are exposed in homage to the original Guncannon, and the cannons are raised. The Feddie emblem on the head and the plug on the codpiece are colored with a yellow marker. The cannons lower and extend out as the Guncannon takes aim. Back view of the Guncannon. All of the boosters are color-corrected with red and/or yellow Dspiae markers. The Alex Gundam in the original RX-78-2 colors stands alongside the Guncannon Mass Production Type. Real robots are so cool!

Did a quick build of the GM's younger sibling to go along with the vintage build. Izubuchi makes the prettiest robots #gunpla
HG GM Command casually holds the Alex's beam rifle in one hand while looking off to the side. Back view of the GM Command with its standard armaments of a shield, submachine gun, and stashed beam sabers on the waist. GM Command raises its submachine gun on alert along with a vintage GM.

RGM-79 GM, simply perfection. No other build will top this, I'm afraid #gunpla
Vintage GM in its natural state: standing upright and arms down as they are loose. Its left hand is glued around a handle for the shield while one of its right hands is fixed with its signature beam spray. The GM takes a defensive position, holding its shield at an angle to protect its cockpit. A view off to the side of the GM swinging a popsicle stick of a beam saber. The GM discards its shield and flees for its life at the sight of a red mobile suit: a confused Char's Zaku II.

I greatly overestimated my ability to paint decals, but I oddly find it charming, messy tho it turned out. I still need to paint the hands and shield as well
GM is now adorned with various red stripes, black squares, a white triangle, and rough-looking 24s applied to the waist and its left shoulder. In addition, the visor has been painted with a mix of Vallejo Intermediate Green and Sky Blue, and the beam saber is a mix of prominently White, a dash of Intermediate Green, and a helping of Sky Blue as well.

Probably some of my best brush work yet for the greatest MS ever. There's still work to be done, but I think I can move on to the decals for now
Front view of the GM. It is now painted in its anime colors. The mint color is a mix of Vallejo Model Colors Sky Blue, Intermediate Green, and White. Vallejo Model Colors Scarlet, Flat Yellow, and Black were used for their respective colors. Back view of the GM. That small, unpainted spot next to the beam saber rack will haunt me until I fix it or forget about it.

The base painting is almost done on the GM. I'm really liking how it's turned out this time around
Front half of the vintage GM torso on a paint stand along with the other parts. Masking tape is set alongside the cockpit to paint the red.

I gave the GM a chest tattoo tonight. It took a lot of concentration to line up the tape, and I think it's straight enough. I'll paint it tomorrow, I think
Full body view of the GM. It is now adorned with an etched rectangular hatch on the chest. Face-to-face with the GM, which gives a better view of the scuffed etching work on the rectangle.

Mulling over whether to stick to the classic paint job or go for the real type color scheme, decals and all, a difficult choice...
Lineart of the GM from '79 Gundam. It has a simple color scheme of a mint body with red accents. Lineart of the GM in Real Type colors. It has a more vibrant white body with red accents and bears decals all around.

I simply couldn't put off building this GM until tomorrow, so I assembled the limbs. Now, I can rest. Gunpla technology peaked here, unfortunately. #gunpla
A partially assembled, unpainted vintage GM. Simply perfection. All two runners of the kit plus the manual. Big pieces and considerable flash galore. The box featuring the GM and a faceless, nameless Feddie pilot. Meanwhile, the ZZ decides to take care of Char's Zaku II.

At long last, the ZZ has been topcoated and in celebration, another photo shoot! #gunpla
The ZZ raises its double beam rifle high up in the air reminiscent of the Last Shooting pose. The ZZ, standing, turns its head to stare at you with its shining green eyes. A close-up view of the double beam rifle in the ZZ's hand.

The muggy weather is finally lifting, so I gave the Hobby Hi-zack a semi-gloss topcoat of shine. Now, it's truly done #gunpla

Weapons aside, RG Char's Zaku II is done, and I even took to painting the bug himself, along with an abstract interpretation of his emblem (painting miniatures is hard) #gunpla
RG Char's Zaku II stands idly with head lowered to resemble something like a scowl. A close-up view of Char Aznable held up by the exposed cockpit by his Zaku's hand. Char Aznable on the ground with his Zaku standing behind him out of focus to emphasize the scale.

If you see this, post a robot

The Zaku has acquired its frilly skirt! I also painted the ball peg on the front pieces in the hope that it'll hold these loose parts in place
The lower half of a Zaku II, now complete with the waist, skirt, and legs. An example of the painted ball peg on a front skirt part as they notoriously come loose and fall out easily from my experience. Will it work? I hope so.

After that other cursed project, I am working on redeeming myself by building a replacement RG Zaku II #gunpla
Both of the RG Zaku's legs have been assembled and are attached to a WIP waist. Meanwhile, a custom Hobby Hi-zack and vintage Char's Zaku II eye each other down inquisitivly.

Used masking tape to paint the blue on the backplate, applied a waterslide, then peeled some white paint setting it. I think I patched it well enough, and barring the top coat, I think it's done!
The backplate of the Hobby Hi-zack now has the blue accent and a yellow triangle decal, courtesy of the GM Cold District's waterslides in the 0080 set. While rubbing off excess Mr. Mark Setter, the cotton swab tore a good patch of white paint to the right of the decal, and I not-so-subtly masked it as best I could. The Hobby Hi-zack holds its head high and lays its hands on its waist on a job well done.

I finally got back around to painting and made a lot of progress at that! I tried freehanding the stripes, which turned out messy, but I'm still content with it overall
Hobby Hi-zack now brandishes red and yellow stripes on its shoulder-mounted shield. Yellow trims have also been applied to the thrusters and backpack using a mix of Vallejo Moon Yellow and Basic Skin Tone. Front view of the Hobby Hi-zack as it stares into your soul. A low-angle back view of the Hobby Hi-zack which shows off the yellow trims on the backpack, thrusters, and the indents on the ankles.

I've been moving, and I finally got enough of my setup to build again, so naturally, I picked up the Origin Gundam to start with #gunpla
HGGTO Gundam waves at you, specifically, from above. HGGTO Gundam hunches over with legs spread wide to show off its compliment of weapons: shoulder cannon, beam rifle, and shield. Next to it is a kitbashed Gundam, which is waving with its weapon. HGGTO Gundam crouches after having slashed an unamused Hobby Hi-zack's arms off. The Gundam looks towards you, pleased with itself.

It's my birthday today, so that's neat
Line art of the Lfrrith Pre-production Type, for no particular reason.

Somehow, I forgot how messy white is to paint with. I will definitely need to use a primer for next time. Still, it's taking shape now
Vallejo Cold White very messily brushed onto the Hobby Hizack.

The painting has finally begun! I was eager to paint the blue, but in retrospect, I probably should've started with white. Oh well, I'll make it work
Hobby Hi-zack, stripped of its arms and head, has had red and blue painted. Dspiae marker Mecha Red and a mix of Vallejo Deep Sky Blue and Magic Blue were used respectively.

I made incremental changes over the week, patched the gaps I made with epoxy putty, and inadvertently created a Hi-zack Custom. I did get creative with the shield too
A real hack job of a Hi-zack. Back hand parts were glued onto the arms, and gaps were filled with epoxy putty. The new shield is an extra shoulder with an HGGTO Zaku's leg part attached to roughly form the shape. Holes were drilled into the legs to attach hoses as well, and finally, the spikes are being cut off the shoulder pads.
