@shinn: Thanks much on the tip shinn. Will check on these. When I purchased the paints- I just told the clerk "A bottle for handbrushing which is colored green.." then the clerk asked if I am referring to the shiny one- then I told him "Yes!". That's the time I was given the acrylic bottle and was adviced if I want to change the effects or shades of green- just pour more denatured on it... That "clear green" one, is it still from tamiya? acrylic? Will try to check on the zippo lighter fluid... my first time to come across with it. ;D RainerO: Ahaha. many thanks pre. Consider it my first on this one. ehehe. I wanted to try how it feels to hand brush. ;D Bro, you can check out this guy who uses lighter fluid for his panel lining on youtube. Just search/type "gundam tutorial" and you can easily find him.

Hi everyone, so far here's what i have finished and I guess I have to leave this one first to build other backlogs. My goal is actually build all the backlogs and then apply the detailing later. So here's the crossbone x1 ver ka hoping to be fully finished in the future. Hehehe ;D A short teaser.. Thanks for viewing and will now buy some time to work on virtue and nadleeh.. Until next time.

Ehehehe... Yup- the acrylic green. The clerk said it was the shiny one amongst the green colors. (I really do not know since it's my first time using acrylics). Eheheh ;D ;D ;D Many thanks kaix, though it is not finished yet. I am still thinking of ways how to improve this one.

i always do a ratio of 30% paint, 70% thinner. the green was a result of mixing 20% light green and 10% black, mixed well then added 70% thinner ;D how did your green go on transparent parts?

kaix: Thanks for the tip pre. Will try it out next time. RainerO: Thanks pre, but the kit that I had on the pic was actually for wing ver ka. But the current WIP is still nadleeh. I've been a lazy dog these past few days.. shidoamano: Thanks for viewing sir. Most of the pics you got there are my collects and as of now, they're my priceless possessions. (drama) ;D ;D ;D Anyways, I'm selling the 1/144 ones. majinborbz grabbed the meteor and wzc. the heavy arms custom is still available and you can always check my for sale thread. just click on the link found on my signature for more info. Thanks! ;D Lady Commander: I do agree, it is really a pain getting stuck with the phrase "to build the kits" and not being able to move forward wth other kits. zankuro: Thanks. My last count was 8. (not to mention m1gs MG IJ)@evangelion: Thank you much sir!

Thanks much sir rainero. Well, miasongskie is back and just with minor updates. Lazy lazy dog.... ;D ;D ;D WIP Progess on 1/100 HG Virtue and Nadleeh To give justice on the header or title for my thread, here are some pics on my HCM Pro collection. Out of their original boxes... ahahah... and then onto one big box! The reason for that was my partner telling me to prepare my things just in case we need to move out. I was even surprised that my first reaction was to make sure my collects are prepared. ahaha ;D ;D ;D I didn't include the Destroy Gundam since the packing is big and won't fit on the 1/100 box for tallgeese III. My HCM Pro Line-Up HCM Pro Gundam Wing Series I really found a lot of good qualities on these hcm pro figures. Gimmicks are cool especially on the added dramatic effect. Poseability also stand out most especially on wing, deathscythe, heavy arms and nataku but I don't find it cool with Talgeese and Sandrock. Each figures comes with its own action base (cool!!!) Articulation goes the same way for poseability. Details are okay. (what a comment!) ;D Overall, I give the set an 8 out of 10 rating. It is also a good thing to see matches between: zechs and heero (on wing gundam) or zechs vs heero (on heavy arms) I guess the missing factor here are nelle's dios. ;D HCM Pro Gundam 00 Series Well, I have a different experience with the hcm pro gundam 00 figures. When I tried taking them off their boxes, it was quite a surprise that the edges are not cleaned. The cuts are very visible, like when your removing parts from the sprues. (in the first place they are model kits too. )Gimmicks are limited. Only basic parts and accessories are provided. Poseability is still good though. I have my two thumbs up for exia (whether normal or special edition), kyrios and nadleeh. Not much for dynames and as well as virtue. I should say I learned to love kyrios in this group. Articulation wise is good, but you need to be careful not to loosen those joints. Details are remarkably done on exia's special paint edition. I'm giving this a 7 out of 10 rating. Hehe Exia: Face-off Formation S32 - D09 - F52. Exia - Virtue Tag Team! ;D HCM Pro Gundam Seed Destiny Series HCM Pro Freedom I give this figure a rating of 8/10 since the details really do match with the ones in the series. You can have a lot of poses as well due to variation accessories and articulation wise is not limited. HCM Pro Akatsuki Oowashi/Shiranui Presentation wise, this figure really stands out and so far the fig is cleanly built. A lot of articulation and has alot of gimmicks. Two thumbs up on the figure. A rating of 9/10 should be appropriate, please don't despise me for doing such.. ahihih ;D HCM Pro UC Series Ahaha, just one though for now... it's the hi-nu gundam for amuro!! This is what I call W 8-)W. The details are just impressive. Looks like you got a 1/200 MG scale. wahhahaha. ;D The articulation's limited so I give it a 9 out 10 rating. hehe (peace) You can also visit this link moe.ipbfree.com/index.php?showtopic=2404 to show you an update on my collects. ciao! ;D
