Icarus's blog: "Somantics"

K... its getting a little bit cooler...
*wonders if he can paint in freezing weather*
And my white primer went bad from all the flooding and moisture in my garage.

Things that need to happen...
in no particular order

Clean my kitchen (cuz that's my cleaning station)
Clean my garage (cuz that's my painting station)
Get an actual respirator (cuz I'm probably switching to solvent based paint and not water)
Buy moar primer (see above)
I started my Zeta C+ and got sidetracked with...
oboi

I still haven't quite figured out this process of deconstruct, paint, assembly etcetera.
I probably shouldn't have even started the Zeta before taking that into account since I was planning a custom paint job for it months ago...
*shrugs*

But my painting projects are
Gouf
Kampfer
Zaku I


Not exactly in that order.
But you get the idear.

I have
2 MG 1/100 Gouf built.
1 MG 1/100 Kampfer built
2 MG 1/100 Zaku I  built (one is ready for disassembly since I cut the male plugs with that in mind)

I'd say that there are three paint schemes already in place and decided.

Gouf Black Tri-star (Lavender, black and white)
Kampfer Assault Commander (primer grey, red trim and exhaust)
Zaku I Ace Pilot custom (black with dart-frog yellow trim and striping)

I... still need to do a shield mod for the Zaku.
And my Kampfer. *...yoinks a shield from his Gouf and looks for an elastic band*


I should probably bench and box my 1/144 Gouf and deburred, stripped Deathscythe hell.

I like the idea of a white Gouf.
Don't ask me why.
I don't know.

I also need some ideas on my JR Gelgoog... if I'm gonna do anything more than OOB.

I'm not sure that I am.

So

pick a color kids.

Bearing in mind that I have a bucket of royal blue, lavender, gimp shiny black, rocket red, hornet yellow and a few vials of finsihers.

I'm kinda sorta certain that one Zaku I will be a dark blue RR custom. > OOB.

Here's some pics for reference.

Zaku I

Kampfer

Gouf

FYI that Gouf needs HELLA mobilitiy and articulation mods.

Just sayin.
