WIP Bearguy Update PT02 (2weeks update)

FINALLY! After sanding for a couple of hours, I DID IT! lol..

Ayt! To clear things up on what happen on this kit, I'll give you guys a breakdown..



If you remember, I applied 2layers of .5mm HIPS(High Impact Plastic Sheets/Polystyrene) on the whole rail system of the 'mono-eye' of the bearguy to somehow cover it up. Unfortunately, after RE-APPLYING for almost 12 times, the said rail system is still visible. SO! I seek guidance from MP (MechaPinoy) and of course, at MAC (Mech Arts Community). And so, they pointed out my mistake. That I should use a 'Epoxy Putty' to fill up a large gap instead of using a 'Basic Putty', since when a Basic Putty cures it shrinks thus making the rail system of the bearguy visible no matter how many times I tried to re-apply/re-putty it lol..



Then! since there are no hobby shops nearby my place, I did ask them if there is an alternative for it that I can get on a Hardware/DIY Shop! Lucky me! there is an alternative for a hobby grade Epoxy Putty, which is.....a Pioneer's Epoxy Putty (Aqua/Wood/Metal). Went to the nearest DIY shop here at my place, and grab one of the Aqua type :)..

And so...here it is!..

First thing I did was remove the 'Basic Putty' in the head.

Then, sanded it down and applied the Pioneer's Epoxy Putty (Aqua Type)~


I know! I applied TOO MUCH putty lol..I let it cure for a day, and trimmed it down using my good old Hobby Knife, then sanded it down! LIKE A BOSS! XD



YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR! XD

I also did some seamline removal on some of the Bearguy's parts :D..






Will prime these parts this morning! Till then! XD

WIP: Operation AMRe: MG ARF Update #4

Hi guys! Finally! an update for this guy :). Been very busy on some school related stuffs like working on our Graduation Multimedia Presentation during our Graduation Rites, and I'm also in charge on our Digital Annual/Year Book of our batch, so Mr. Pink is super busy atm! Since our Team is on a break as we speak, I decided to work on my Astray. So, here's what I did this afternoon after eating lunch and the past few days :). First of, I used the Kotobukiya Piston's I ordered last week from  Sir Migs/M1gs  to somehow add detail(s) on the waist part of my ARF. I still plan on adding more details to it. That's it for now. Then after attaching the upper body on the waist, I noticed that the left leg is a bit wiggling for some reason. Until I checked it out and I found a broken peg :O Well, luckily I remembered that we had a 'how-to-fix-a-broken-peg' topic before on our Facebook Group. So I gathered up all the materials that I'll be needing on r...
