Girls Can Build Gundams Too

A blog that I have dedicated to my hobby of building (And fangirling about) Gunpla. I've been building for over four years and I have 42 kits and counting.

I had no opinion on government dress codes before 24 hours ago, but my mind has been changed by the sheer magnitude of raw fury that has been unleashed among the professional conservative class in response to the ruling that Sen. Fetterman is allowed to wear shorts and a hoodie on Capitol Hill. It has been driving them crazy. I have been negatively polarized into the belief that we should ban suits and jackets entirely

Part One! Two witches are forced to cohabitate in order to raise the baby promised to both of them.

This comic was based on this post. (You can also see my old version on the link if you wanna see how far it's come.)

If you enjoyed this make sure to check out Part Two, and if you feel very generous and had a nice time you can drop me a Ko-fi. Comics are a labor of love and money really helps out while I'm in school!

Me (Knowing full well that white and silver are the two WORST paint colors to use on model kits when brush painting): Let’s mix white and silver together!

Been awhile since you posted was wondering how you have been

Not bad, just really busy.  Between finals, work, and Christmas shopping, I haven’t had much free time.

What kit did you lose the joints to that had a nice paint job

It was the 1/144 HG YAMS-132 Rozen Zulu (Episode 7 version) from Unicorn.  I spent a good 2 weeks painting it.  One of the pieces in the head ended up getting damaged beyond repair as well so I had to work without it.   

I mean I’m sure at some point I’ll get a kit that will have a couple of spare joint pieces that will work with the Rozen Zulu but until then I’ll just have to make do with what I have. 

[thatcrazymechachick]

So what kits are you working on at the moment ?

I’m not really working on any kits at the moment (I’ve been really busy with school and work because of the time of year it is) but as soon as I have a decent chunk of time to spare I’ll be working on the 1/144 HG RX-0 Full Armor Unicorn Gundam in Destroy Mode that has been sitting in my room for the past two years (I got it on August 4, 2014). Since there’s minimal painting involved.  Then maybe (if I can find the instructions) I’ll start on the 1/144 HG Rick-Dom I’ve had for about 4 years. 

After that who knows, I currently have 5 kits in my room that need to be painted and built and I don’t trust myself to not buy more until I build the 5 I have just sitting around.

The Last kit I worked out was just about a total fail because I lost the runner with all the joint pieces on it and had to kinda improvise with whatever I had left over from other kits. So it won’t stand up on its own because the legs are extremely flimsy and I can’t set it up on a stand because the legs will fall off.  Which is a total shame because I did a nice job painting it....

You look very cute thanks for posting that selfie I asked for

No problem~! Thank you!

[thatcrazymechachick]

Can you post a selfie ?

Sure! I haven’t posted a selfie in a while.

This is literally one of the like 4 selfies I have where I’m NOT wearing either a backwards baseball hat or a toque (knit hat).

Did you hear about the new Gundam anime centered around gunpla, and fighting them?

I have heard about it but I've been so busy with school and what not that I haven't had a chance to watch it yet.  But it's definitely on my to watch list.

I finally finished my last project of the summer!  I'm super pleased with how this came out.  It took about three days to complete.  I painted it with Tamiya acrylic paint and it took a ton of patience (simply because Tamiya paint dries super quick and I had to mix the dark purple three times).

[thatcrazymechachick]

The thing I like about using Tamiya acrylic model paint: It dries really fast.

The thing I don't like about using Tamiya acrylic model paint: It dries really fast.

In other words it's great if you're using it straight from the jar. But it's not so great if you have it in small quantities because you had to mix colors.

The LMHG Eva-01 that I bought at an anime convention.  This is probably one of my favorite models.  It went together so well and it's a pretty solid kit.
