some problems i faced with the blue frame is that i'm unable to mount the gaint sword/gun onto the blue frame's back. it can't seems to click into place firmly.
anyone encounter this as well?
but nevertheles despite this, blue frame is still super cool.

hmm... finished piecing up the gryphios war set... made some stupid mistakes when i made it in the midnight...
(e.g. misplacing some of the stickers, didnt piece 2 parts' gaps firmly,etc.)
the finishing was good, but yet done any paneling. added some decals that come with it, but not all. haven't got myself a set of gundam markers to do minor coloring/painting work.
perhaps i still need some more experience to gain the 'nirvana' of model making...
RX-178 Gundam MK-II (it was in a weird grey color, not white.)
MSN-100 Hyaku Shiki (Foiled Gold color, is that how it should be described?)
MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam (Big-Ass Rifle, needs serious painting to let it look nice)
Gryphios War Set -
Purplehaze623, for your RX-178 i still see a lot of unsightly spur marks on the model.
did u use the penknife to file off the spur like i told u? -
hmm tried it, cut abit on the other hand, but cut my hand too when i try it on the hand holding its beam rifle...Originally posted by Gordonator:Purplehaze623, for your RX-178 i still see a lot of unsightly spur marks on the model.

once bitten twice shy, maybe i'll get the plier for cutting out runner parts... expensive again....

don't have to use a brand new penknife, it's really sharp. -
