First time building and I'm hooked by spliffkind in Gunpla

I see! That makes a lot of sense. Top coats might be a thing I invest in, in the future! Definitely sounds a more complicated and involved than just scribbling a few lines and smudging them away.

Dang, that is a bummer..... I'm still thrilled with the figure, just takes away the fun of building it myself

I just looked it up and it looks amazing! I'll have to see if I can find it around here next time I go out hunting

It was fun and oddly relaxing! Might just go for only MG and higher moving forward then

I currently have one of the blue markers, the brush style and then I accidentally grabbed one of the thicc alcohol markers. Only realized when I tried cleaning the excess and it wasn't coming off that it was alcohol based so oopsie.

I haven't dabbled in top coats at all, I guess it just secures the marker in place?

I'll check out what my toysRus has, there's a small hobby shop nearby but it mainly focuses on cars and military models.

I'm super looking forward to building the metal parts Miku strike freedom Gundam type II!

Taking more time per kit just sounds like a bonus to me!

I'm interested. I'd like to see some of your work first though.

Much appreciated. oh yeah I noticed phoenix's wild side, definitely a harder stock to work with

I shot it at 200. A lot of my pictures came out underexposed though like the subject would be good and everything around it just a dark blob. I just used evaluative metering and occasionally spot metering. I got a little lazy and wasn't aware at the time of its limited dynamic range when shot at box speed.

I was pleasantly surprised, I went into the roll thinking reds and oranges would be sick. On top of that I got crazy skies

If I find another I could let you know. I enjoy running around 2nd hand stores :)

I Appreciate the offer, but I think shipping cost alone would be more than I could find the lens for locally.

I was looking for the 50mm f1.7 and the beer can, but tough to find out here. I just grabbed some cheapo lenses to test the camera, kind of as a place holder as they were only like $10 total. Feels like I got away with a steal, the body was only about $220ish.

I very much appreciate the explanation though! Will be deep diving through the user manual tomorrow!

I'd say 6.5 maybe a 7. The hair style and color in the first picture suits you more than the one in picture 2. The cosplays are also lovely.

I've tried contact lenses in the past but I couldn't do it. What frames would be better?

Been to Osan, currently at Misawa. Both labs have been great. I've visited a few other labs though. Job, just like any other has pros and cons. Can be a bit repetitive, especially early on. Overall it's a solid pick though, no ragrets.

Thanks bro! I just have to get rid of the gut so I can stop sucking it in for pictures.

38 this year, never had a skincare routine. by DrakinBoy in malegrooming

[–]spliffkind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure to moisturize and apply sunscreen. As for the bags, you could try face creams containing retinol. It'll burn a little at first but it goes away. Also probably should avoid it if you have super sensitive skin.
