Hey everyone !

So like the question says above.... Anyone ?? i love gundam model kits and if i could id spend a LOT of money on them .

I personally customize my gundam model kits that usually by altering the original paint job or completely making my own color scheme. Also resin conversion kits add some nice detail.


So yeah if there are some of you who enjoy the hobby as much as i do please post and talk about GUNPLA!!!

i was into gundam models about 6 or 7 years ago. i altered a few. i was pretty good at painting them as i was also into warhammer table top gaming a long time ago and painted a shit ton of miniatures. i've been wanting to get another deathscythe hell mg and do it up with some battle damage. hell i also want to get back into warhammer but only for painting the miniatures. too many hobbies, too little time and money.

btw is that a diecast voltron in the last pic?

Oh Games Workshop.

I was all about that back in the day, but the prices just EXPLODED. It's like no mater how much money I make, it's still completely unaffordable.

yeah crazy prices. i had about $2000 in just miniatures. and that was buying them from a discount online seller before games workshop stopped stores from doing that completely. then there was the paints, books, and other crap. i'd like to get back into it just to paint. tho having some small skirmish size units to play would be cool as well. my kids would like playing too.

here is something i just found ... some gundam bits mixed in with some warhammer 40k bits.
