Hobbywave Haul

Just received my latest haul from Hobbywave; two MG's and a substantial amount of paint. The Tallgeese is for me, while the Age kit is actually for my girlfriend. Her first kit was, of course, the Nobell Gundam, but she's moved away from the girly kits and started doing some real building. I also got a few new colors of Mr. Metal Color that I might use to finish up my HG Sinanju, and enough super clear to last me a few months. I'll probably finish the Sinanju before the weekend, and I also intend to do a quick review on the Tallgeese since it's a relatively new kit.

HGUC Sinanju WIP

I started work on this HG Sinanju about two weeks ago and so far it's gone very smoothly. I'm doing a clean paint job on this guy with a little bit of decaling.

Completed HGUC Kshatriya

I completed this kit a few months ago, but decided to take some new pictures. A few people were interested in the pre-shading technique I used on this guy and I plan on posting some in-depth pre-shading tutorials in the near future, so stay tuned. More photos in the link.

Completed RX-78 Ver. Ka

Welcome to Gunplacore! As you can see, this is my first post, and I'm very excited about it. I've wanted to start a Gunpla blog for a few months, but I've only recently been able to find some time. I came up with the name Gunplacore through my love of hardcore music. During high school, my friends and I would often tack -core onto the end of normal words to make them more "brutal." Although Gunpla isn't exactly...brutal, some aspects of it can certainly make you want to windmill kick a stranger. Hopefully I can share some tips and tricks through this blog that will diffuse those feelings, and maybe help you become a better modeler along the way. Thanks for reading!

I just completed this RX-78 Ver Ka. the other day and figured it would be a fitting first post, hit the jump for some more pictures.
