Decided on continuing the Gundam Dynames build over the others. I guess I’m such a sucker for continuity *snicker*

Update (03/12/2010): Translated Construction Manual can be found here.

Translated the color guide for the Master Grade Gundam Astray Red Frame Kai that was recently released this month. More photos of the Gundam Astray Red Frame Kai can be found here and here.

Found an old Portable Tire compressor of my Dad’s in his stuff. I tested it in the car lighter jack and found that it still worked. The electric motor that is, haven’t tried it out on a car tire yet because I was wary of the air pressure.

Being a newbie to 21st Century painting techniques, I used to think that by using Tamiya Masking tape alone one could hope to avoid the paint from seeping through the masking tape during spraying. After watching this episode of Plamo Tsukuro (Building Plastic Models), I found out that even the pro’s suffer from that same mistake. Nice to find out too that there is a method for fixing this problem. There is a funny part in this exchange, wherein after explaining to the cameraman the problem of paint seepage that happened to the kit, the cameraman tells him “can’t we just leave it as is?”… hehehe
