Hurrcane Over – Back to Business

So the Hurricane AND my mother are gone, so now it's tim to get back to work. Lots of things have been going on since last week.

1) I primed parts of the 00 Raiser on Monday while it was gorgeous outside. Apparently post hurricane weather is stellar. I went outside because the endoskeleton is kind of huge. Today I am going to start putting the rest of the parts into the spray booth and get them primed as well. Hopefully I can get this all ready for white paint before the other project starts to loom over me.

2) So on Reddit's r/Gunpla, we've decided to have a group build. We decided to pick from any 1/144 kit and everyone voted. I was kind of excited to build a ReZel because I already had both of the kits. Unfortunately, they voted in the Zaku II. I ordered a couple of the 1/144 kits and started to trim and sand the RG Zaku II. Unfortunately, the RG is not playing well with the regular 1/144 kits and I wanted to do some part swapping and modifications, so I may not use it after all.

I'm looking at taking the cuffs and chest plates from some Geara Zulu's I have around here and possible the backpack from Angelo's Zulu. I also have the Super Zaku Custom from the Gunpla Builder's Club which I plan to use the legs from. I feel like if I use the chest it will be too obvious.

As for a color scheme, I think it's time to try a yellow to prep for the Gouf custom in my lineup. We'll see how this all goes. I haven't even mocked up any of the color yet because I don't know what pieces I want to use.

Anyway, stay tuned.
