This is one of those times I wish the Reputation system still existed, I'd give you all the cookies

I now officially call the Neo Zeong "MUH IDEALS".

Here's a Sazabi I've been working on since early January, finished it tonight:

I'll need to find a post on SB discussing the HGUC Neo ZeongMUH IDEALS so I can throw it out, lol. Thanks for the sentiments anyway!

And really, I dunno, I just got that feeling looking at it.

Edit: For those wondering what I'm talking about, MUH IDEALS.

Did you just embed the shield inside an acrylic stand?

That is a beautiful Sazabi build though

This build is so well assembled, it's a work of art and makes me feel more than a little inadequete. -_-

Holy shit. You're awesome.

HGCC Turn A Gundam:

Yes, the shield is embedded in the stand. It's an acrylic rod, the shield (which I didn't allow the paint to fully cure for a week and/or I didn't clear coat the damn thing before encasing it). It is encased in several layers of clear resin. The process took a few weeks. I'll have a blog post detailing the process with pictures up tomorrow hopefully.

Thanks, glad you guys like it. BTW, there are 36 LEDs inside the thing too.

Lighted pic please

Guys, I need advice

I think I will get one more HG before stop, but what could I expect from Nu Gundam and ReZel?

Here's a quick little video I did a few days ago to show off the lights. I've gotten most of the lights on the thing with the exception of the mono eye, as my batteries for that LED were out.

Great Saz man, I like the stand a lot. You get to show off that awesome shield without having to make the suit actually hold it.

Now where is my MG Dark Matter, and I didn't even like the design at first.

Both are fantastic kits imo, but if you were to get one, get the Nu (or wait till you can find the HWS version and get the ReZel instead)

In earlier posts I have stated that my living conditions and personal preferences did not allow for such :P

[Fireminer]

Just saying, there is this shop in my city where they paint the parts - you have to assembly it by yourself.

Wow lucky!

I wonder if my city has any services like that around......

[ZeroXSEED]

Additional fee is required, usually almost cost as much as the kit themselves unless they use aftermarket paints

There's tons of such service in Asia due to prevalence of gunpla

Don't know about the ReZEL, but the HGUC Nu Gundam is a nice kit to both build and display. It's just a really inarticulate kit though due to its antiquated joint design (and this is a kit made within the last decade ).
