WIP Part 5: Bandai MG 1/100 Gundam Deathscythe EW: Inner Frames Dry Brushing

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 6 | Part 7 |

Phew... I started this WIP Tuesday and finished Thursday. It is really a bothersome for a working man to focus on the Hobby because of the real work. But, what's great here is that I can buy these things for my Hobby because of that real work ^_^.  

In this WIP, I do the dry brushing of the inner frames and it is my favorite painting technique by far. I have been doing this for the 4th time and I still can't resist on overdoing it. Dry brushing is used to be a brushing technique using just a small amount of paint and near to almost nothing. The effect is that you will be adding depth at the edges of a certain part you are applying the technique. What I have done here is that I intentionally over do the dry brushing which makes it look like scratches done on the inner frame. I am pretty much satisfied with my work and what's easy here is you don't have to be accurate on the dry brushing. The paint I always use is Tamiya Silver Leaf. Here are some pictures I took after I finished working today:

Here is the first Update of my actual Deathscythe WIP. I have done trimming the parts as well as cleaning the nub mark last Thursday. And I had the chance to assemble it because of the long weekend. Here's the parts and the assembling of the inner frames.

Here is the Manual Scans for the MG Deathscythe. I used my new scanner but now it only works with an automatic 300 DPI unlike with my past scans which has the highest of 600 DPI. Though they are almost the same the only difference is that the scanner will automatically clear blank spaces on the sides of the material you are scanning which sometimes removing parts of the Manual which doesn't have a color on the sides.

It has been a long time since my last WIP. I have been busy nowadays because I am already teaching in the College but because of that I had the chance to have a free time and make it as my WIP session. Now I will be doing my MG Deathscythe EW that I got it way back in February. 

The box had some dents because of the shipping but still it is in a decent condition. As I said before, the box is relative to the box of most of the MG Wing Endless Waltz Kits. Here are the shots of the whole box:

Package No.24

At last, my most awaited item is here. I have been searching for this for over 6 months because I forgot to pre-order it before it was released on January 2013. Luckily, I had encountered some helpful friends to help me find and get this Item. It was bought in Singapore by a friend and was taken back here in the Philippines when he had a vacation and dropped to another friend who took care of shipping it to me. 

Hopefully this time I won't get same Mobile Suits just like I had in Volume 1 & 2, so I won't be hunting it anymore. Because looking for a single item from the set are hard to find and sometimes it will be like doubled or tripled the price of the set itself. I will get to review this later tonight and post it tomorrow and let's see if I can get all the 8 different Mobile Suits in this set. That's it for now. Thanks for your time.

Restoration Part 10: Bandai MG 1/100 Wing Gundam EW ver. Ka

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5 | Part 6 | Part 7 | Part 8 | Part 9 |

Heres an update for what will I do with the Wing Gundam ver. Ka I acquired recently.

Mainly, this is the reason why I need the extra parts.
What happened here is that after I finished assembling my Wing Gundam custom painted,
I noticed that the leg joint was too loose and I got a bad idea to tighten it.
A noob idea was made and I ended up destroying the pegs on the middle part of the leg joint for both legs.

Next is that I am missing this white part that you can see in the picture.
So I took it from the extra parts too.

When the time I accidentally destroyed the leg frames, I tried scribing some leg armor parts that didn't turn out that well so I will seal it again with some putty to make it normal again.

After some sanding I think it is back to normal.
Tomorrow, I will be checking it again to look closely if there are any uneven parts which I cannot see tonight because I don't have a bright lamp with me.

Hopefully, I will proceed with the painting of these parts when I have time after school. And I am still looking for the waterslide decals for the Wing Gundam ver. Ka. Maybe someone from the viewers might know where I can buy it in the Philippines only. Just comment below so I will know. That's it for now. Thanks for your time.
