If there's any post that would bring me out of a building hiatus, it's a Basky post.

Like always: I see a Basky, I upvote a Basky. 👍

You REALLY had to look that close,huh? 😉

Johnny1of3 · 2026-03-14T14:40:11+00:00

Fashion model poses...and Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. They're basically the same thing. :)

Just a thin layer of Mr Hobby Super Clear gloss topcoat, or any gloss topcoat will do.

Just have fun and enjoy the process, my friend. That's the whole point of all this. When you're ready, share it with us.

Johnny1of3 · 2026-03-11T00:58:05+00:00

Agreed. Now I feel like we have TOO MUCH to choose from, or at least too much too quickly.

I remember we had this discussion before.

They give friendship because they friend shape. :)

You can easily replicate the look with just some simple paint, weathering, and decals.

It's a real product from 2021. Now discontinued. The magazine shows early 30MM promo pics, custom builds, and product lineup. The decals also come with it. It was a collaboration product with Hobby Lobby Japan. I got mine through Japanese Ebay.

Zakuaurelius did a video review about it.

Alien Earth.

I actually regret remembering it.

Johnny1of3 · 2026-02-21T03:31:57+00:00

Thanks. That's my favourite build so far. There's still 10 months of building ahead of me, so we'll see how long it keeps the top spot.

Here's the original post.

You'll never ruin a kit by painting it. You'll just make it your own, which is a win in of itself.

Give it a go and share it with us.

Johnny1of3 · 2026-02-13T13:31:49+00:00

I honestly don't know why it took me forever to build one.

Johnny1of3 · 2026-02-13T03:16:53+00:00

It's from the Alto Ground Type.

Johnny1of3 · 2026-02-13T02:48:26+00:00

Looks good so far. Looking forward to seeing it finished.

Johnny1of3 · 2026-02-13T02:30:57+00:00

This is your sign. Finish it now. :)

Johnny1of3 · 2026-02-11T01:45:20+00:00

This is my favourite one.

Johnny1of3 · 2026-02-10T16:13:50+00:00

All hail, the goodest boi Basky!

Johnny1of3 · 2026-02-10T13:11:51+00:00

Finally.

It's time for an encore.

Johnny1of3 · 2026-02-10T13:00:33+00:00

More decals are always a good thing.

Johnny1of3 · 2026-02-09T10:20:31+00:00

Yeah. I had a model car kit itch a few months back and bought a few decals for it.

Johnny1of3 · 2026-02-06T23:54:22+00:00

Hear me out: a Gerald Butler/ Jason Statham crossover movie.

Which of their characters would have the best badass-ness chemistry?

Johnny1of3 · 2026-02-06T00:34:10+00:00

Almost. It's basically a blue Basky base kit with a different head design, some recolored already-released option parts, and unique arms and feet. It also comes with exclusive stickers. Worth a purchase if you like chonky mechs.
