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 repairing the broken peg :).

A cement, a superglue, and a cotton. Yep, a piece of COTTON! :)

First, I cemented the broken peg/part.

Sanded it down after letting it cure.

Covered the whole peg with superglue and applied the COTTON!!! XD
That's how I did it, that's how Stephen PRO does it, and it's worked out pretty well so far XD. Credits goes to "Stephen/PAPA P" XD.


After fixing the broken peg, I started cleaning the left arm from nubs. As I'm planning on using the left arm as a testbed for the paint that I'll be using for the whole frame. 


Painted it afterwards :)




That's it for now! Will now try to work on the modifications on the legs if my schedule permits me to :). Till then~

WIP Astraea

My very first WIP!..or better if I'll call it WISP!! *Work In SLOW Progress* lol XD...This is a 1/100 NG Astraea Type F :) I started w/ the shield :D

Progress so far (WIP Strike Freedom FBM)

I'm already done painting the whole frame and some of the armor parts of my SF, and if you'll ask me right now..I think I can finish this guy by this week. The only problem that's stopping me on finishing this guy is the Flat White that's not available here in my place. YES, it's NOT available..I already looked/asked EVERY HARDWARE here @ Castillejos Zambales, and at Olongapo! which pisses me off <_<..anyway, here's my progress so far.. Till my next post! :D

MG GM Ver. 2.0 Group Build!

Yes, I'm not done yet with my SD Astray..But earlier, we <me and my friends/fellow modelers> have discussed what will be our next GB, and decided that it'll be a GM Ver. 2.0..GM's design is SOOOOOOOOO plain that you can do a lot of stuffs to it, and in my opinion, the kit is a perfect kit for mods and stuffs XD.. This is not about who's good or who's a better modeler, this is about enjoying the hobby and the GB..I joined the GB to <again> learn and get used to modding gunpla's or model kits in general, to help improve my "skills" <if you call it skills> in this hobby. If ever, this will be my 2nd attempt to mod a kit! HELL YEAH!! XD Anyway, here's the current list of the peepz who'll join this MG GM Ver. 2.0 Group Build Shaq/CRSNIK Kevin/KevinCS Niko/Mr. Pink David/DAVIME Billy/Flynn Ray Mark/ Stephen/ Aaron/ Jamac/ Jeremy/
