Overview
-This is my first gunpla kit, the sniper rifle wielding gundam. Before I got into gunpla I first asked a friend for opinions on how it was like. I was expecting it to break easily or something like glass, but I was wrong, it’s surprisingly better than what I had expected.
-Enough of that, sadly I missed out something on the chest, I forgot to paint that part white, but who cares anyway, it still looks visually impressive for an amateur gunpla.
-The handle of the gun went missing, so I had to improvise and glue a separate handle to the gun’s side.

GAT-X207 Blitz Gundam 1/144 HG
Overview
-Took two photography sessions to do this one, first was when I was running my old blog. The uncustomized, fresh out of the box Blitz Gundam, was photographed during the first session. I was just starting with my gunpla hobby at that time. By the time I started to take things more seriously, I gave it some serious customization and there you have it.
-Still an amateur here at customizing my gunpla, so nothing really fancy. I still think it’s a major improvement compared to just leaving it as is.
-I like my mobile suits heavily weathered. I got inspired by seeing the 1/100 White Ogre Zaku, which is very weathered and battle damaged. The weathering effect looks good sometimes, but not always.
