Thanks sir Vlad.. I've just visited sir PilapZ's thread.. yeah there're some similarities coz we both started on 1/144s.. However, in his case he really has that talent (and courage) to paint an MG for his first take on painting gunplas... me, I'm quite not ready to do MGs so I'm still practicing on FGs and 1/144s (don't wanna ruin the big ones, kinda expensive for me you see hehe).. ;D

I'm sure you can do it on MGs sir practice makes perfect you did a good job on the FG exia, goodluck on your customized sazabi

every journey begins w a single step... just be patient and overtime you'll never have that space to put your kit due to astounding numbers you have unconsciously collected! glad to see your collections despite being already a regular here... and definitely looking forward to seeing your colony grow.. ;D

@vlad
As Ai-Ai said, "Practice makes perfect but then again nobody's perfect, so why practice..." ;D Kidding aside, yeah I'd definitely hone some skills and will post some updates on some of my works or recent accumulations. Thanks!

Idol! Glad you've visited my thread! Thanks for the encouraging words. Same as above and I'd wish I could be good in detailing my kits just like you (naks!).

Just a preview of some shots of my FG Exia. I have some problems uploading the pics in my cam. Hope these pics would suffice for now.


In the Dark


Moonlit Exia ;D

That's all for now. Gonna show some pics soon.

Thanks for the nice comments guys!

I was able to fix my camera problem so here are some shots of my favorite FG! 1/144 GN-001 GUNDAM EXIA

In dim light








In a brighter lighting








It's not that much but hopefully the shots were good for everybody's eyes.. ;D Since it's an FG, it has limited poseability although what I liked about the FGs of the 00 series are the moveable arms and legs unlike the FGs of Seed/Seed Destiny whose arms and legs are fixed.

I'm still thinking what to do next but for now my prob is where to get a good but affordable air compressor. I use air cans when airbrushing but that's really expensive (at Php400/can which can be used for a single FG only )... any suggestions guys?

Thanks for dropping by.

You set the dark mood for your Exia custom, nice...

[nats]

Nice Exia you got there sir!!! Nice color. I envy you for that hehehe kinda lazy in painting my kits hehehe.

[Vlad]

nice lighting effects still can't believe that Exia is just an FG congrats ;D

@raps/tsongki/Vlad
Thanks a lot sirs. I found the black background compliments the color of the Exia. I always wanted to paint my kits, kinda not satisfied with the original colors (especially the /1/144s FG or HG). Glad you liked what I did. Hopefully the next one I'd do would come out good as well. Watch out for that. ;D

[RainerO]

As for me those are wonderful shots, giving life or importance to a fg exia.

Hi guys! Thanks for the nice comments!
Got nothing to do this morning after I got home so I took Exia again and took some pics. ;D

Waiting for the next pose (...)


Naruto vs Exia
Naruto: I'm gonna be hokage! I must take you down!
Exia: You dweeb! You're ninja moves won't work on me!


Sasuke vs Exia
Sasuke: Let's see which is powerful: your seven swords or my kusanagi sword...
Exia: ...


The Hulk vs Exia
Hulk: GGGRRRROOOOOOWWWLLLLL!!!
Exia: Oooookkkaaaayyy... you're big...


Only one way to escape the Hulk... RUN!!! ;D


Of course that did not happen... Exia taking on the Hulk! Activate GN Particles... GO!
