I think I've finally hit the point during moving where it's 50% actual apartment and only 50% pile of haphazard moving boxes.
Also I don't need all my tools for the frame so I was able to get started on a kit!

RX-78-2 GUNDAM: NOW AND THEN

I really love the classic look of the Gundam, so I wanted to understand all its differences compared to the modern interpretation of the RX-78-2. And there's no better way to learn something well than to teach others!

#gundam #mobilesuitgundam #rx-78-2
a digital illustrated poster comparing the original and modern designs for the rx-78-2 gundam. on the left there are illustrations of the modern look and another drawing sporting lots of markings and decals, as well as extruded vents on the chest. on the right, there is an illustration of the retro-style gundam, and a closeup of the head. the following text is what fills the space around the illustrations: MARKINGS - There is no "one true design" for the Gundam, and the various designs for decals on model kits or paintings of the RX-78-2 show this well. NOSE - While the original design of the head is variable in its design (especially around the faceplate, which could either have a flat top or a jagged top), a good amount of the illustrations show that the red section under the eyes was intended to be in the shape of a nose and upper cheeks. This is similar to other giant robots of the era, like Mazinger Z or Zambot 3. VENTS - Some depictions of the RX-78-2 have extruded yellow frames around the chest vents instead of vents directly inset in the chest. While this is a design trait that the later RX-178 Gundam Mk-II has featured since its first appearance, the RX-78-2 wouldn't be depicted with them until its first Master Grade model kit in 1995. Now, this look is part of the variable design "canon", and appears on some iterations of the RX-78-2 like the Ver. Ka or the Gundam: The Origin design. YELLOW V-FIN/ANTENNA - The RX-78-2 is occasionally depicted with the crest on its head in yellow instead of white, especially in early merchandise of the show. This may have been because early giant robot toys used softer, rubbery material for pointy design elements, and that material only came in a yellow color. On the RX-78-2, this yellow coloration is also used in the Gundam: The Origin manga, alongside a green camera at the top of the head and eyes that often glow pink. (alt text continued in next post)

The box I unpacked didn't have the cable I was looking for, but it did have the Psycho Gundam which is pretty nice

The problem with replaying Dark Souls 1 is that I’m constantly fighting the temptation to do a Zweihander build again, no matter how much I tell myself I want to experiment with other weapons

Learned that an anonymous outside expert on submersibles did an interview with the OceanGate Titan investigation, and they released a transcript, with all the names redacted. The first line of his first answer? "I'm sure you're familiar with my film Titanic."
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA NATIONAL TRANSPORTATION SAFETY BOARD ***************** Investigation of: LOSS OF THE SUBMARINE TITAN IN THE NORTH ATLANTIC OCEAN ON JUNE 18, 2023 * * * * * * Accident No.: *********** * * * * * * Interview of: Co-designer/Pilot Deepsea Challenger DCA23FM036 via Microsoft Teams Friday, July 26, 2024 INTERVIEW OF 10 BY LCDR 11 Q. So how did you get yourself started into submersible 12 operations? 13 A. Well, I'm sure you're familiar with my film Titanic. When I 14 set down the path to make that film, the first thing that I did 15 was arrange to be introduced to the head of the submersible 16 program at the P.P. Shirshov Institute in Moscow, a guy named 17| Professor I. I did that through a mutual friend 18 of ours, a guy named , who is one of the preeminent underwater cinematographers in the world. And had been on a 20 submersible expedition out to Titanic the previous year with the 21 Russians. And that was organized by a Canadian company that was 22 doing an IMAX film which was released under the title Titanica.

For whatever reason my brown Tamiya panel liner leaves really inconsistent amounts of actual pigment. Anyone know if there's anything to do to prevent this?
I've been shaking the paint for a bit before using it.

I was a bit skeptical that the t-shirt sleeve would be enough to keep things separate, but whenever I put my hands into the box it's noticeably more hot and humid than outside, so it's obviously doing something...
