my favorite Harlan Ellison short story

the generation gap! when I started on GQuX, I was expecting she was gonna be really short, but the end proportions aren't actually that much different from gramps... she even has a little extra height from her long legs and lifted feet. HG week to continue tmrw with Battlogue Blazing Gundam! #gunpla

Goodzilla :)

what do you mean "if"

Cedric Saebrook 🐽『a Swine of Culture』(ENVtuber) @aswineofculture.myatproto.social · 14h

my morbid curiosity is piqued by very poorly-reviewed kits... troublesome

Cedric Saebrook 🐽『a Swine of Culture』(ENVtuber) @aswineofculture.myatproto.social · 1d

okay, I guess this thing is quite balanced and poseable... yes, very striking design and excellent engineering to support it, but some of those stickers are lost causes; too stiff to wrap around what they need to. I wonder what the #gunpla designers said when they saw the GQuX? I'm betting "Oh no"

HG Gundam GQuuuuuuX plastic model, balanced on one foot atop a flat-screen TV. It is in an exuberant, dance-like pose, with one knee lifted high, leaning back, with an arm extended to the side and the other crossed inwards. A lamp is in the background, glowing so bright it seems formless (but it looks kinda like a cool effect!)

no progress photo for GQuX yet (I've only just done one head while waiting for something to install) but jeez, this is HG? my condolences to anyone doing this as their first kit. These parts and stickers, while remarkably engineered, are little nightmares even beyond what I'd expect in an RG #gunpla

You will only leave us wishing that it was, and isn't that just a different kind of cruelty?

Queuing up what's next for my #gunpla adventures... I'd like to knock a few HGs out of the way to clear up some shelf space, then tackle another RG

The difference in 1/100 and 1/144 scales is not as striking as I anticipated, and the kit's complexity compared to the HG Shining isn't much. I still have a couple other MGs waiting (God Gundam and Turn A) so maybe I'll warm up to MGs, but they definitely seem like kits meant for painting plus-ups.

Cedric Saebrook 🐽『a Swine of Culture』(ENVtuber) @aswineofculture.myatproto.social · 4d

As for this, my first finished Master Grade... I dunno! Use of screws and some inconsistent joints make for an odd posing experience. Maybe it's the era of MG kits I've started with, but I think I'd rather have done another RG instead. I do have both of Domon's suits in RG waiting to be built...

"Look... the East is Burning Red!"

No wait, that's a P-Bandai RG Gundam Astraea Type-F, whose kit design I became immediately enamored with upon seeing it. #gunpla /cont'd

1/100 scale MG Master Gundam, standing, with large lozenged red wings (adorned with blue trim and yellow stripes). It looks to the right with an outreached hand, gesturing at a monochrome red model kit box. The box reads "Gundam Astraea Type-F".

1/100 scale MG Master Gundam, facing the camera in a tilted dutch angle framing. The shot is from the waist up, and the model seems to have forward momentum towads the viewer. Its red wing modules trail behind it.

special mention that Turn A is the last Gundam anything animated on painted cels

why that's my good buddy Gundvölva!

Cedric Saebrook 🐽『a Swine of Culture』(ENVtuber) @aswineofculture.myatproto.social · 5d

okay, okay, he's coming along now... he'll get his most "super robot" elements tomorrow when I build his crazy Go Nagai-esque head and wing units #gunpla

MG "Master Gundam"... anguished... headless... entreating the heavens (me) for mercy, but I'm tired and my fingeys hurt

microplastic surgery

Cedric Saebrook 🐽『a Swine of Culture』(ENVtuber) @aswineofculture.myatproto.social · 6d

this has been a bit of a journey so far. The box for this kit is post-2022 (blue logo, "Bandai Namco" up top), but the runners appear to have been pressed in 2005. The plastic is a bit crispy, and I broke one of the shoulder pieces (I'll clean it up tomorrow). And screws? Man, screw that! #gunpla

various partially-assembled bits of master grade Master Gundam from "G Gundam". One leg is done, as are the arms, but one bulbous shoulder cover is not yet seated. Various bits and bobs of the other unassembled leg are scattered around, as are a screwdriver, nippers, glues, and the kit instructions.

close-up of the shoulder bulb being held between thumb and forefinger. A rough patch is visible where the plastic sheared apart, now curing after application of Tamiya Extra Thin plastic cement.
