OPERATION: ANEMONE (WIP Bearguy)



OPERATION: ANEMONE!

Hi guys and girls! It's me again! XD. I do have a new project and this is the HG-GPB Bearguy that I recently bought. I'm planning on painting this pink (finally! XD) using spraycans as usual.

OBJECTIVE:
My initial goal was to finish this guy on or before February 13, so I'm pretty sure you already get what this kit is actually for :). Will also try and do a minor mod on the head (the mono-eye thing). To add up, I'll be actually doing 2 Bearguys. Tho, still haven't got my hands on my third one (YES, I already got 2, and I'm planning on getting another one just for this project lol, while the first Bearguy will just be plainly snapbuilt).

And so..It has begun!..

Did a wetsanding on the kit, here are the photos taken:

Before wetsanding:

After:






Now, time to remove those visible seamlines!


Applied cement and this is how it looks like:



Waited for a day (12-18hrs) for the cement to cure, and sanded the body. Primed it afterwards and the seamlines were still visible :(.






But! no worries! Putty will save the day! YAY!





Applied it on the visible seamlines and yeah..did wait for a day for the putty to cure up :)..sanded it afterwards:
Ran out of primer but, It should be fine after priming :)..





And now, the head XD..did a lil modification on the head, here it is:

Did the same thing on the head. Sand > Apply Cement > Let it dry/cure for a day > Sand > Apply Putty if seamlines are still visible :).




Now, this is the modification I'm talking about:


Filled it with putty afterwards :D





Waiting for the putty to cure up, and yeah! That's basically it for this update :D..till next update! ;)

Mr. Pink tried using 'Future' Pledge :D

I was looking for a cheap alternative for gloss topcoat to do my panel wash on my IJ since Bosny's Clear Gloss is too thick for me, and remembered that I saw on sir DC23's blog that he uses this Future Pledge to do the job, also, I asked sir T.V.A. *The Virgin Angel* with regards to using Pledge/Future for topcoating before panel wash..and I bought one right away XD..anyway, here are the photos of what I did on some scraps XD.. What I did was painted the part chrome and then, applied Future/Pledge on it.. Verdict: Seriously, it's so EASY to use. You don't have to do something like mix it with other stuffs before applying on the kit. You don't have to even worry about brush marks/strokes since it's self leveling. And it's shiny! XD So, if you guys are looking for a cheap alternative for your gloss coat, I highly recommend this one XD.. Till then! :D

HG Shaldoll Ver. Odium WIP #01

Did something to my HG Shaldoll :D (This is btw, our Brando Bell Group Build) First of, this is what I plan on doing on it's backpack. Next, I did some cutting on the backpack in order for me to attach the thing that will hold the TA's boosters. Then I trimmed down the part that will hold the Tactical Arm's boosters, so it can fit in. I then attached the boosters on the backpack of the Shaldoll. Next is, I worked on the head. The eye lens for me is too big, so I decided to make it a bit smaller somehow :). Using a .5mm HIPS (High Impact Plastic Sheets) I did this. Sanded the putty I applied, and primed it to see if there are still something to work on. Still needs a lot of work on the head though haha :)). Removed the design on the body, and replaced it with a koto part. And oh! Look! It can transform now! haha! I also added wings on the shoulder armor, still working on it. Till next update~
