Since AX is around the corner and I'm still SLOWLY finishing up some fixes on the GM Sniper project. My workbench is fairly clear and I can mock up some quick tutorials. It is always good to revisit some technique…
For the past 11 years, we at Those Gundam Guys have presented gunpla building panels at Anime Expo. We've met so many people, make numerous amounts of friends, seen some of the folks that attend our panel get married to…
Angel, Nate, and I went to A-Kon in Texas this year for the first time. We had applied for a fan panel as our continued SCGMC promotion tour we decided to try this year. We had gone to Tatsu Hobby's…
This last bit of work has been ongoing since I finished the Sniper. This is the display base. I got the idea to do an relief style display when I was up at Tatsu Hobby’s Blue and Yellow Ball event a few months back. I saw a display that had half a figure projecting out of a wall piece and thought that would be a really cool effect to try with a kit. So I want to start small first, then possibly do something bigger in the future. A more wall mount piece in the future, but here we go. I had been working on the Zaku bit for a while and only touched a little on the wood base in a previous update. I have some electronics involved here too. Previously, I had a ring light attached at the bottom of the box with some angled styrene sides. Aside from that, I also have the electronics that will drive the mono eye. I’m using some tinyduino boards to power and run the mono eye.
Here is a quick video of ths base.
