As I set off to drive back home; I took a few pictures, as I am not able to contain how cool this thing looks with all the booster packs attached! I know the actual boosters arent on there yet, but they dont stay on with out a ton of sticky tack, and I am far too lazy for that at this moment. (: The gun and everything set nice and tight too. I may need to reinforce the base due to the overall weight of this kit, but thats an issue for when I am at home and have all my tools again. You can see on the left side (for you) right side of the Gundam the wing, the left one wouldn't stay on and I already had to glue and sand one down after it snapped in shipping.
The white circles in the upper boosters are .040" plastic I didn't like how low in the extra fuel pods sat so I used that to raise them up some.
The wires and other little details added to the underside add a nice little something.
As you can see by the upper right booster, globs of putty I still have clean up to do. The putty I am using is harder than the Tamiya kind, but it takes considerably longer to dry. Normally needs 12+ hours for a good hard cure.
And with this happy guy staring you down, I bid you a wonderful weekend. Mine will be spent in a car.
As always, thank you for stopping by T.G.
