So I got a tattoo! My very first. It’s a brick and it has a symbolic meaning of being all that remains of the brick wall I used to keep around myself. I’m so happy that wall is now gone. It represents freedom and will always be a reminder to never allow myself to be hidden from the world.

My finished RG Sazabi! Painted with Oden Kan and Mr Color lacquers. Kind of a difficult build, especially the assembly. I made many mistakes and had to take it apart. Glad it’s done! #gunpla

AK Ultra Matte is god tier IMO. Gives everything a velvety finish.

My RG Sazabi build in the final stages. I just did a lacquer satin coat to unify the decals. Should I keep it as is, or do an ultra matte? #gunpla

Some previews of my latest project. Trying to get it finished before 2026 rolls in. It’s looking great so far. And OMG so many decals. I swear the decals took like 10-15 hours.

RG Sazabi WIP. ⚠️ very pleased with it so far. But so much to do yet. I hope to have a lot of time devoted to finishing it over the holidays and have it be my final build of 2025. 😊

This oddball Mecha from Armored Battalion Dorvack. Totally boring anime, but it had some very interesting robots! Painted this all with Mr Hobby lacquers. I’m not sure what the point of lacquers is? So they endure handling better than acrylic? Or is it a Japanese thing? At any rate, hope u enjoy! 😊

The nozzle of my harder and steenbeck airbrush sure resembles a evil building in a popular fantasy movie. 🤭

Thank you, that’s much deeper than I thought about it hehe. I was thinking it was a minor ace paint job or something. But mainly I just thought the colors would look good. 😊

This Disk Hound thing from an old anime called Crusher Joe. Not a very popular movie, but it had some really interesting model kits. #anime #gunpla #diorama #scalemodel

With decals the key is to put them on top of a gloss clear coat. And then use a decal setting solution. I recommend Walther’s Decal Setting solution. It will make the decals hug the model much tighter and look great.👍
