MG ZGMF-X10A Freedom Gundam

This is my latest model. The Master Grade Freedom Gundam. I have to say, I had a lot of fun putting this one together. It took me about 2 days with no painting. Its my first MG model that I didnt paint due to a clogged airbrush and lack of paint :[ Either way, Im happy with the way it looks. The back pack is a bit heavy which makes posing without the stand a bit of a task. Since it was mentioned, the joint articulation on this model is very nice. I find it to be one of the more flexible models in my collection. With the Hi-Mat wings spread out in full glory, the model is almost a foot wide. I have to say that this model proved to be the most fun, and intensive model to put together. Now that it sits on my shelf soaking up all the attention, its time to decide on a new model to get ! Im open to any suggestions :] Oh and here are the pics !

I thought this was a cool pose for freedom with the Hi-mat wings open.



The Hi-mat fully open and the beam saber joined together. (darth maul came to mind haha)

New Model and a better camera..

I just bought a new Gundam model ! I was at Tokyo Discount and happened to spot GNY-001 Gundam Astraea sitting on the shelf. Its a 1/100 model that is very similar to Gundam Exia. Most of the parts remained the same for the build. Oh and I also got a hold of a better camera ! (hooray!) So hopefully these pictures turn out better after I upload them. The build took me about 2 hours because I didnt paint this one. I need more Gundam paint and markers so till then, my new models will remain unpainted. I do however plan on assembling Impulse, Exia, and Astrea once I get more paint and finish them properly and do them justice :]

Heres the one and only pic I have of Astrea.
Yea, thats my desk..pretty messy no ?

Ill definitely take more pics of more of my models once I get registering for classes done and over with. So enjoy for now !
