OMG Digimon Plastic Model

I heard a faint rumour and also saw a leaked photo of this new model. I was in shock first of all and hoped that it was real. Then it hit the market and I bought it fast as I can. It arrived on the day after Thanksgiving. That was the real Thanksgiving day for me.

Even though I had a list of things I need to make. I just looked over box and then I started on it. I made it look like how I wanted it to look like. It is completed and I will soon post more info and photos of the Omegamon!

Shock and Sadness

One of the blogs that I followed since 2 years ago finally got shut down. It was like almost a newspaper for me, I would check it out to see if there was any new info about Gunpla and other stuff. This was caused not by the owner, but caused by negative hearts in the world. People selfishly added their negative thoughts to corrupt and twist the very truth in that blog.

I read on that blog that people built the Gundam models and would throw it from the building to the floor. At first thought, I thought 'what a waste...' They wasted money and time in building it, just to break it in to tiny pieces. Whoever did it have not seen Toy Story yet.

When I build a model kit, it doesn't matter if it is Gundam related or not, I feel almost proud of that kit. I spent time and labored all my heart and soul into it. So when I finish it, whether I liked the anime that showed this model, I love it with all my heart. Over the years I collected and built many of them, but physically I was running out of space. I literally had no place to put them. So I used to give it away to neighborhood kids as a sort of hand me down. But I thought to myself that they weren't cheap and definitely not cheap enough to just give it away. So I made each one with care, so that I may give to someone I care about as a sort of a memento of me. I think I will be very disappointed in any of the people if they did what that deusche on youtube did. I always think I put a little bit of 'me' inside those kits. So if they throw it away, then they're throwing part of me away and I will take it as literally, 'I never want to see you again...' Please hold on to them to remember me.

SD Sangokuden Warriors


Ok, have you ever heard of the Chinese story called, 'the romance of the three kingdoms?' It's a classic in China, but the story was translated to many languages and the story changed as it was passed around. The core idea of this Gundam series was from this book.

To those who never heard of the term 'SD'. It literally means Super Deformed. Gundams from this series are noticeable by their big heads compared to their bodies. The nice thing about the kits from this franchise is that they are cheap to produce and to buy. The only problem is that it's a pain in the butt to paint. To look anything remotely like the one in the box, you'll need markers.

Anyway I'll just include couple pictures as an example and please check out my work. Remember this is work of a guy who likes to make. I'm not a guy who makes it so other people can judge.'

This Blog will be the voice of my innovation!

Ok, I decided to use this spot for ranting about one thing that I love more than food. It will be about Gundam. IF you do not know anything about it search on Wiki.

For today, Gundam 00 has a movie coming out on september. There is one design of Gundam in the movie that intrigues me. The name of the Gundam is called Raphael Gundam. So far the Gundam Meister, Tieria Erde, rode on a gundam that had separate unit that was either inside a big gundam or attached to the main body, but this time around it looks as if carrying a big pack over it's head. This is just my speculation, but it seems that this gundam will have a different approach once again to surprise the viewers. I think the pack over the back and the head will be like a armor that attaches to the main body during heavy in-fighting. In the trailer, people can see that they detach and attacks enemies with cannons, but I think there is more to it than meets the eye. My vote is for armor parts. For more information, check out the gundam Virtue from season 1 of Gundam 00.
