I honestly can't believe we've hit 1K followers! 🤯

A huge thank you to everyone who's been following along, liking, commenting, sharing builds, and geeking out over Gunpla with me. Whether you've been here since my first steps or just joined recently, I appreciate every single one of you.

This hobby is all about creativity, learning, and an awesome community, and I'm grateful to be a part of it with all of you. 🙌

Here's to more builds, more panel lining, more custom projects, and probably a few more lost parts along the way. 😅

Thank you for 1,000 followers — let's keep building! 🤖✨

20 builds, 20 choices from this amazing community — and one hell of a journey.

Thank you to everyone who picked a kit and became part of it. ❤️

But along the way, I realized that trying to finish a kit every week sometimes made me focus more on the deadline than on the hobby itself.

So I’m taking my foot off the gas a little and closing the “grind” chapter.

I’ll keep building, painting, sharing and creating with you — just with less pressure and more time to enjoy what brought me here in the first place:

Building Gunpla simply because I love it.

The journey continues.
Just at a better pace. 🤖🛠️

First short update on my new project 😎

Bandai HGBF PPMS-18E Kämpfer Amazing 🦾

Just a quick update:
Mainparts are cutted and seperated by sections. I'll do the weapons all after i finished the main build (i ran out of space to seperate the weapons now 😅).

Since i'll do a complete recolor here's what i'm going to use (all colors from @kaleido_colorworks):
- KM002 Gun Metall
- K121 Armor Carbon
- KM001 Zirconium Black
- K311 Rally Spirit Blue
- K312 Liquid Blue
- KM012 Flashy Gold

Everything on white primer (@ammomig One Shot Primer) and coated with all kinds of topcoats (matt, satin and gloss). Hope that works 🫣

Love goes out to @becky.mecha and the team from @mechauniverse 🫶

Next to do is de-nubbing (found a new word 🤩) and sanding, sanding, sanding... 😮‍💨

So give me some time and come back for further updates 😉

🔵 NEXT PROJECT: HG KÄMPFER AMAZING

A new contender is entering the hangar — and this Gunpla build is here to turn heads.
This Bandai HG Kämpfer Amazing is getting a custom blue paint job using Kaleido Colorworks paints, applied with my new Gaahleri GHAD-68.
A fresh color scheme, custom detailing, and a machine ready to stand out from the crowd. 👀🔥

Surely will take a good amount of time as i'm still learning the whole science behind painting and masking 😅

Big thanks to @mechauniverse and @becky.mecha for the support! 💙

Also played around with Capcut a bit 🫣

Will try to keep everyone entertained (somehow) and informed so come back in later 😉

Build finished 😎

MD0064 Darilbalde bootleg from "The Witch From Mercury"

Yes, yes and... Yes 😅

This kit was a really pleasent ride. Joints are rock-solid, nothing shaky or loose. The decals included in this kit are ok (a little thick in my opinion). Articulation is great. If you are more creative than me you can get nearly any pose out of this kit.

Hope you guys like what i've done here 🦾
(Here no fancy reel because i didn't have time to make one atm 🫣).

Come back in later to see what's next on the bench 😉

Last update on my new build 😎

MD0064 Darilbalde bootleg

So i've done the last parts today and here we go 🦾
I will do the decals in the next days and do more posing shots. The articulation is really great and i think you can get a lot of badass poses out of this bootleg 🤩

Come back in later to not miss the final results 😉

Yet another quick update on my new build 😎

HG MD0064 Darilbalde bootleg

So today i've finished the legs on this one. Nothing too fancy 😉

Found a deep molding error on the inner side of the right leg which can be seen on the last pic 😵‍💫 And of course the panelliner runned straight in... Also the plastic kinda sucks paint from the markes underneath the surface (the dark "clouds" around the blue details). But hey it's a bootleg so not getting too curious ☺️

Waist, weapons and decals left to be done 🦾

Come back in so you don't miss any further progression 😉

🚨 New tool enters the hangar 🚨

Was talking about getting a better airbrush 🫡

Got my hands on the @gaahleri_official GHAD-68 from @pkpro_onlineshop. First look: gorgeous 🤩

Hope to get better results with this nice trigger type airbrush.

Just a quick update on my new build 😎

HG MD0064 Darilbalde

So the overall quality of this bootleg is quite good considering its price... Gates and nubs are really stressing me but it's still good.

A nice trick for thouse of you using markers:
I stopped using the eraser marker to get rid of the excess. Try using a toothpick instead. Wait about 10 minutes to let the marker dry and gently scrab away the excess. You get razor-sharp edges and nothing bleeds out.

Still too dumb to rescribe but i'm learning (used a way too large chisel here on the headpiece 🫣).

Will practice on another kit in the future 🦾

The build won't get any matt topcoat. I've tested my coat (GSW Maxx matt) on a runner and it's turning more like pinkish than red 😝

Stick around to stay updated and also go tell your friends 😉

⚠️ Next on the bench: HG DARILBALDE ⚠️

This time, the choice is a little different...

The HG Darilbalde — as a Bootleg kit — will be built while keeping its original color scheme largely intact. No complete color overhaul. No radical redesign.

Instead, the focus will be on refining what is already there.

The included waterslide decals will be used as part of the build, while only a few additional details will be added to give the mobile suit a little more depth and character.

Sometimes a kit doesn't need to be completely transformed.

Sometimes it just needs the right details on the right spots.

🛠️ BUILD PLAN

• Original color scheme preserved
• Included waterslide decals
• Minor additional detailing
• Clean anime-style finish
• Maybe matt topcoat

Just the build.
Just the details.
Just the Darilbalde.

Stay tuned for further updates on this one 😉

Sorry for the "wrong" view 🫣
