I’m trying to decide which one to bulld next. No idea if bsky has polls but, I guess comments will do. The Ball is the clear type and the inner frame details will be detailed. #gundam #gunpla #verka #ballverka #rx782verka

Recently got me a Daban EG Nu Gundam kit just for the fin funnels, which I planned to include with my Bandai EG. Painted the main kit to match the “test ver.” colorway from the Master Archive Mobilesuit mook as a quick weekend build. #gunpla #gundam #nugundam #charscounterattack

Building the inner frame first was suprisingly efficient. Took just about three days from initial build to hand-painting details. Used to take me weeks painting individual parts before building. #gunpla #gundam #mastergrade #jegan #charscounterattack

Thanks!

Another one done — MG Gundam MKII 2.0. This is going to a part of a Zeta Gundam trio display. Seated pilot figure is Emma Sheen, standing pilot is Kamille Bidan. #gunpla #gundamzeta #gundammkii

I meant to write “1st topcoat done”. I still need to add weathering, final topcoat, and some metallic paint (by way of weathering) to finish it off.

MG Re-GZ (2019 kit) done. It’s the PB Unicorn version, but I painted the red parts to make it the CCA one (I know, I know, there’s a TGBL version). Not my favorite kit — difficult to pose, the hand parts keep falling out, and the torso keeps leaning to the right. #gunpla #regz #gundam #cca

Finally, the show-accurate White Base trio in Master Grade format. #gundam #gundam0079 #guncannon #guntank #amuroray #kaishiden #hayatokobayashi #gunpla #mastergrade

Taking time off work and resuming some reading. Sandman Mystery Theatre is one of the best titles published under Vertigo, and the confirmation of a second compendium made the wait worth it. I’d upgrade if DC decides to publish omnibuses. #sandmanmysterytheatre #goldenagesandman #wesleydodds

Got days of unexpected downtime at work, figured I’d tackle my 2019 MG Re-GZ, all 28 runners of it. I could get the Gundam Base exclusive Char’s Counterattack version but I figured I’d just save myself half the cost, get this instead, and just paint the H runner red. #gunpla #regz #gundam #cca

Thanks for the heads-up! Looking at the manual, it look like the treads will take a lot of work, particularly at the weathering stage.

Behold!

Took my chance on a Japan-based seller with few reviews, since the list price happened to be close to SRP. Lucked out on a first pressing (red Bandai logo, 11/2015 runner date). Some parts are knocked off the runner but nothing damaged or missing. #gundam #gunpla #gundamtheorigin

Catching up with my decal backlog: Do-Dai Kai with Karaba Air Force decals. HGUC revive Hyaku Shiki for scale. Planning on clearing all the decal/weathering backlogs first before starting a new build. #zetagundam #gundam #gunpla #dodaikai #hyakushiki

Trying out one of my empty shelves for size…looks like this will go to the top of my Kallax instead when I’m done with this kit. The MG Jegan and Re-GZ won’t fit in here. #gunpla #gundam #nugundam #verka #charscounterattack

Finally able to resume installing decals on my MG Gundam MKII 2.0. Got distracted by a few things over the past few weeks. #gundam #gunpla #gundammkii #zetagundam

Finished the basic build of my HGUC GM II, painted with AEUG colors. I know there is a P-Bandai version, but the price is just too much for just a minor color swap. Clear and shiny parts to be installed after decals, weathering, and topcoat. #gundam #zetagundam #gunpla #aeug #gmii

Clifford Jongko @tapsilogic.bsky.social · Feb 24

A couple of builds in the pipeline. The GM II is the regular kit but I’ll be painting it in AEUG colors…not paying thrice over just for a P-Bandai color swap. #gunpla #WIP

Clifford Jongko @tapsilogic.bsky.social · Feb 10

Crazy how Bandai still keeps this in print. It’s not as advanced by today’s standards but the design still holds up well. #gunpla #gundam #rx78 #gundamverka #mastergrade

Wasn’t a big fan of clear action bases, but these made me change my mind: they do look good. #gunpla #gundam #mastergrade

r/shopeePH is a weird place. It’s like upvoting is an alien concept to its members.
