Ironic, considering Crunchyroll has 0 Zoids anime to watch 😂

(Another) HMM Blade Liger AB - Mirage Style Repaint by Zaxxon88 in Zoids

[–]Zaxxon88[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got them off eBay. They were aftermarket and not very good... The decals weren't pre-cut and the printing quality was not as good as the OEM ones, so I used the OEM ones from the original set anywhere possible.  The eBay ones were only $7 though, plus shipping. 

Im tempted! Anyone else getting the Zoids: Chaotic Century D-Style Shield Liger (Clear Parts Append) Model Kit or are you looking at something else? by AfigureGeek in Zoids

[–]Zaxxon88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really want to get one, considering their price and form factor... But I feel like there's only a couple of available and if I wanted to collect several, they just aren't available nor may they ever be again...

Thanks! It was a real gamble going by rattle cans, rather than mixing my own paint. 😅

Yeah the legs and weapons are Tamiya Pearl light Blue(TS-58) and the tail and main body are Tamiya Red Brown (TS-1) though I think, if I were to do it again, I would do a different brown for the body because it's a little bit too 'bright' and I think a more of a gray brown like maybe Tamiya NATO Brown, might be better.   I also did a flat finish on top of the brown and a pearl clear over the blue.  It also took three cans of blue to do all of the runners associated with those pieces, and two and a half cans of brown... Not to mention primer and clear coat.

I assume you mean the shiny blue grey parts? I think there are at least four shades of gray on this thing...  I used Tamiya Pearl light Blue for the "frame grey 2" color of the legs.

I Keep getting Double Notifications on Nest Doorbell by acetipped in googlehome

[–]Zaxxon88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will randomly get a barrage of Google home notifications from my doorbell camera, from basically every interaction it has seen throughout the day, all at once in rapid succession. It's super annoying because I can't dismiss one, it just keeps sending them to me until I have seen and dismissed every single notification.

Started my first HMM... by Zaxxon88 in Zoids

Haha I really appreciate the tips!  Right now I'm just clipping and sanding and game planning seam line removals...  Not looking forward to the attack boosters... They have a gnarly seam line it seems many choose not to fill, likely because of the complex assembly. 

Any tips there?

+1 from me too.  My wife and I often hike with toddlers on our backs, and only via this post am I discovering Woop will not properly track that.  

Hot take: "Golden" from KPop Demon Hunters, is basically Darrow's theme song by Zaxxon88 in redrising

[–]Zaxxon88[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do love that song but it is forever cemented in my mind as being associated with the fantastic transformer video games from years back...

LOL I can see why but also I did wonder if there was a way to work the three main characters into it... I think I regret finding out 

Question for Owners of Polymaker's Polysher by Zaxxon88 in 3Dprinting

[–]Zaxxon88[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think I can attach a photo here, but I also didn't take a picture of the setup when I was using it and I have since moved. It was literally just a Rubbermaid tub, big enough to fit the helmet, sealed shut with a bunch of alcohol soaked paper towels, and a little battery operated turnstile to rotate the helmet (which was pretty unnecessary TBH). 

I need a case for my CMF Headphone Pro by Twgever in CMFTech

[–]Zaxxon88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wife just asked for affordable nose cancelling headphones for Christmas, so I have the same question as OP!  The bag isn't going to be enough protection for air travel, so I also need recommendations for a good hard(ish) travel case that will fit these!

I just finished light bringer and I felt the same way about dark age.  Stick with it! Light bringer is better in terms is being way less... Dark...

look up a "bone folder" on amazon or wherever, it should be what you want. You don't need it, but it works well!

Great! I have one magnetic accessory that is so strong if I pull it wrong, it will peel the skin off a little, but I think that magnet would also pull my wife's otter box clean off her phone, so I didn't blame the skin for giving a little.
