My last poll was a give away, What should I get for Christmas?... The PG Strike Freedom won in a landslide so I thought of just removing it coz the other choices has no way of catching up with the votes of the PG Strike Freedom. Now I hope this new poll will have a more interesting run.
I am actually just killing time here in my office and will be going home in a few minutes. Plus I am really curious on what impresses Gundam collectors and modelers the most. I had a poll asking the preference of people involving OOTB weathered kits, modified weathered kits, OOTB clean builds and modified clean builds. The Modified clean builds won with a large margin over the modified weathered builds.
Now I have another poll asking for preference... What impresses fellow Gundam modelers and collectors the most? No OOTB choices here though as I know by now ( based on the last preference poll ) that it won't get that much votes anyways.
The choices are simple and you could select multiple answers. Are you impressed with highly detailed PGs, highly detailed MGs, highly detailed 1/144 kits, well built dioramas or projects with high levels of scratch building in any scale???
I understand that a highly detailed 1/144 with lots of scratch built extra parts in a well built diorama happens ( like Eday's ), thus I allowed multiple answers in this poll. Hope to see your votes guys... hope the poll will yield interesting results. ;)
Thanks for dropping by! Til' next post! :)
Eday is like a god for what he does. I'm not sure anyone even comes close. To me, scale isn't an issue unless there is a size restriction for some contest. I'm more concerned with the original idea and execution.
ReplyDeleteFor a model to catch my attention, it should first and foremost take on and personify a style/theme. In other words, if the end product isn't something that convey a clear and unified feeling effectively, then it's lost cause, which is why photography/posing is just as, if not even more important than the model itself. A bit like how a short story now that I think about it. Aside from that, originality is also important, but not at the cost of the first factor.
ReplyDeleteTotally agree! and one of the most humble ones to boot! :)
ReplyDeleteYeah and the level of originality is always a plus. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm really impressed when I see a lot of scratch built parts (like Eday's) as well as re-engineered joints for better articulation. Of course originality and the over all aesthetic are really important too.
ReplyDeleteFor me it will be a well done diorama - bonus points for multiple kits. I just love it when said dio tell a story of some sort ;]
ReplyDeleteAn interesting POLL at last... No landslide winner so far, thanks for the votes guys! XD
ReplyDeletefor me, it would be a MG or PG detailed and modified with custom built part to create a an entire new kit.
ReplyDeleteIts one thing to conceptualize a project and executing it gets my attention...
Anything original is a plus for me... :)
