So you've got the Stealth VF-1? Thoughts on it? I saw it a few days ago and was undecided.

Nightbat® · 2009-08-13, 12:07

It's a dark 1J, though admittingly I think it looks better than the 25th Anniversary
Still, both low-vis schemes are my favorite

BTW, angelbirds is on sale at HLJ

I'm not big figurine nut, but I have bought a few over the years. All of which are collecting dust in some corner somewhere. haha

Lets see what I can remember:
-I have 2 plastic snap together SEGA figurine from the Sakura Wars game. Sakura and Iris, I believe. Opened & assembled, but not painted or glued.
-A 12(?) inch pvc figurine from the Nadesico movie (Ruri). It came in a box fully-assembled and painted. I've only taken it out of it's box once or twice to look at.
-An Eva-00 Blue toy. Opened.
-A set of the 3 goddesses from the Ah! My Goddess Movie. Never been opened.
-A 12 inch pvc model from the Macross 7 series (Mylene). Opened, unassembled, and partially (badly) painted. I have no talent for making models. lol

Wow I feel like such a dork after writing this!

I only have a modest collection of 20, so my closet is filled with the empty boxes and the figurines are displayed in the actual room.

I keep the nice ones on the top of the shelf. They are also great for decoration
The rest goes into the closet or to the attic but I'd never throw them away

I like that one, but didnt order her due to her "boin boin" are not show accurate.
they should be "bigu boin"

Haha. One of the reasons I really liked this version was because her breasts weren't the size of water melons.

Not mocking the power of breasts but huge ones don't do much for me. As a mate of mine once put it; anything more than a handful is a waste.

;D

EDIT: Haha, oh man. I was just looking over your profile Astrana and I saw your Kureha gallery. It was that gallery I stumbled across about six months ago that set off my interest in it and since then I had been chasing one of those figures.

Seriously huh? Danny Choo is crazyyy about Dolls! Great guy though! Didn't he make his own doll creation too?

By the way, do you know where I can get dolls that you assemble like Gundam Models? LOL!! I've seem a couple, but I never really know where to get them!

DC started with Gunplas, I found his site because of his gunpla tutorial.
Then he shift to PVCs, now dolls. i am not sure about own doll creation, but his mascot mirai chan, is getting her own figma line.

Doll Assemble like Gundam, you mean resin kit?

There are a lot of them on Ebay. But becareful, some of them are maid in thailand with inferior quality (inferior price as well). I would say go to HLJ.com and search Resin.

Astrana, kinda like this one right here... See the pieces? LOL! GUNDAM MAID! LOL!!

GameraBaenre · 2009-08-17, 15:20

I've been working on this kit for the past few weeks... and putting up posts on my blog, so for anyone bored at work, or just bored, here's something to read:

Spoiler:

Work starts on velvet, initial surface clean up and work

First priming session to find surface defects

Fixing surface defects with light curing putty (Scroll half way down page)

Prime, Putty, Sand, Prime, repeat

Surface prep is 80% of the job...

Finally, some real painting

Fun with masking

Astrana · 2009-08-17, 19:12

^ always impressive GameraBaenre

velvet is a wicked figure, she is bit pricy... i am on the fence of ordering her ^^

Tofu Prod · 2009-08-17, 20:12

WOW GameraBaenre!!!! That's crazy!!! Nice joB!
