You read it right folks...this build took a mere 4 weeks from snapfit to photoshoot! A personal record for me, because I usually take a couple of months to finish a model.

MG Tallgeese WIP 3
This is WIP 3 of the MG Tallgeese. Previous WIPs can be found here:
WIP 1
WIP 2
(WARNING: PIC HEAVY)
I've only got a few more days to finish this guy in time for the Level Up competition. The pressure is on, but I have to remember that a properly finished kit is better than a half-baked entry. Here's where I am, 4 days from the deadline:
The internal frame was painted a custom mix of mr. hobby gloss black and gold. I used a similar mix for the Freedom and I really liked the results, so I made a new batch with a higher ratio of gold. I then applied tamiya panel wash black, and then dry brushed with enamel silver...

MG Tallgeese WIP 1
This is WIP 1 of the MG Tallgeese.
I recently received this Daban kit as a Christmas present from my wife - and since I was in no rush to finish up the RG Freedom diorama I thought I'd kick off the new year with this build. I decided to submit it as an entry to GundamUK's ongoing Level Up competition. I really like the theme of this event, as it encourages the builder to up their skills and try something new.

There and back again...
The company thought it would be a good idea for me to do some on-site support at our world HQ for a migration project we had lined up, so they sent me over to Florida for an entire month. This was my first trip to the US, so it was pretty exciting.

In my last post I had intended to add waist hydraulics only to the right side, since there wouldn't be any room left in the opposite side when the body was fully bent sideways...I was never happy about that idea...it felt like I was cheating myself into thinking I pulled off a legit waist hydraulic mod. So I decided to rethink my approach, and came up with this:

RG Freedom WIP 2
WIP 1 is here: WIP 1
Made some progress over the long weekend. The feet are getting close to how I want them to look. I made some flat screw heads, and added a tiny peg to the foot hydraulics so they can be removed for painting later on.

RG Freedom WIP 1
My EXS project is officially on hold to make way for this little guy...
I managed to snap him up in a reasonable amount of time, marking nubs with a green pen just to make sure I don't miss anything during cleanup.
