Custom Gundam Base by Aor_or_die

 

I was googling about some diorama ideas when I saw this photo. This base looks a little like my custom bases albeit better. I then found out I was credited from the post of my good old fellow Gunpla modeler in Aor_or_die! Makes me want to craft a diorama all of a sudden.

Cool stuff that will definitely look super nice once painted! I love the angle of the base and the protruding tubes that added so much depth to the piece. The details on the base itself is so well crafted and looks very complicated even in it's primed state. Looking forward to the painted and weathered photos of this build soon.

Do check out more photos at the blogsite of my old friend Aor_or_die. Below is the link...

1/100 HG Seravee Gundam snapfit - DC23

Ello guys, I snap fitted this kit for 3 hours right after getting home from the mall with the kids. Anyways, I had fun building this kit coz the build was pretty simple. The Seravee Gundam kit came with a Seraphim Gundam ( the black thin one )...and the Seraphim was kinda funny to build...it is like an overgrown HG 144 kit...the parts are too simple and the construction very flimsy at some points. BUT, getting two kits for almost the price of one is always a bargain.

I plan to build this after the AC White Glint commission work...I bought this initially coz I got inspired of doing a FAT Gundam after seeing Toymaker's MG FAZZ. I am lazy to do another FAZZ coz I just finished a FAZZ commission work late last year so I bought this instead. I wanted a Virtue but it was out os stock at the time when I bought this. 

The Seravee has a nice solid ( but light ) feel to it, the joints are almost sturdy enough to hold the cannons...but as usual with kits with big weapons...it is always better to find a support for the guns. This was a very straight forward build and the design of the kit is ok. The only qualm I have of this kit is the Seraphim in backpack mode...the waist joints tends to be easily pulled off  from the torso.

I like the kit very much coz I will be detailing it as usual and it looks like a canvass in OOTB form waiting to be painted on. Anyways here are some pics...sorry for the quality of the pics btw, I had a hard time exposing the black Seraphim coz I do not have enough lights, thus the white Seravee is over exposed...
