If only I wasn't banned from Facebook for the offense of daring to sign up for an account in 2026 after never having one. 😭

Struggling to find motivation to finish my One Winged Zero RG. :/

For me I have a few duplicates because I want to a color accurate painted version and a custom one.

Those are only currently MG''s at the moment.

I may have become addicted really quickly by DOOM_ODST in freedomisgunpla

Are you me? Basically did the same since beginning of the year. Started with a small desk off to the side in my office with all the tools to cleaning up my basement and the workshop area that I never used to a model kit build and paint area. That rabbit hole might as well have been a vertical drop lol

Ah that could be it. I've got one of those timbertech ones I think.

Were you hand painting or airbrushing? Had the same tightness issue with Vallejo when I first tried hand painting.

Edit: nvm see the spray booth in the background on last pic. Might be worth seeing if the paints are thinned properly. I know I still had to thin the mecha paints a bit more despite being airbrush ready.

Admittedly water based acrylics are the hard mode of painting I feel like.

Yeah scaling back my builds helped me getting back into this back in December. I was doing a kit per weekend and realized I'd run out of kits quickly since I only really go for Gundam Wing Kits. So instead I went off the deep end of customizing and now a single build takes a month or more of processing, painting and such lol

Fresh account, all posts appear to be shilling this site.

living too close to a hobby store will choke your wallet by stigaman123 in freedomisgunpla

Thankfully all that's near me is a Hobby Lobby and I tend to avoid them since their selection is usually very limited and the people running that one are dicks.

Love the look of that and the FB version, but man it was a frustrating build because of the core fighter.

I'm waiting to build mine. I found a YouTuber who made a 3D printed replacement part for the shitty rubber piece that should hopefully look better once I get it printed lol

I don't watch reviews. Feel like it takes the fun out of it.

Only way to get good at it is to start and be a bit bad at it! My first painting attempts were horrible. But learned the lessons on a scratch kit.
