This is the part where you all say, "Hello GM," and I say welcome to Gundam Anonymous. Why Anonymous? Well, firstly, I'd like to get my models out there without the personal bio. Also, with one glance at my collection, one might wonder if I should seek some professional help. Well, I figure therapy at it's core is just sharing, so I decided to do just that. I settled on Gundam Anonymous because we all need a place to confess our obsessions. Now, why GM? Well it's sort for Gundam Multiverse. In one way or another, I love it all. I can see the flaws in a Gundam series, but more often than not I look for a virtue. When it comes to Gundam there are several... let's call them vocal opponents to many of the shows. Now while I love the Universal Century, I have a soft spot in my heart for anything plastic that I can make into a giant robot. As you'll discover, I'm no purest. I believe you can respect the past and still make room for new things. For example:
I'll slap wings of light on a Zeta.
Or add a Gundam Hexa head to a Foxeye from Armored Core.
My plans are not to turn this into a mecha news site. There are plenty of great ones out there. Instead, I plan to use this as a sort of digital showcase for the collection I have amassed. The collection is huge and this could take years, so look forward to a bunch of updates in the coming days, weeks, months, and well you get it.
I invite comments, questions and photo requests.
Also, I'm not afraid of scale. Yep. That's a 1/144 Argama.
Again, my name is GM and welcome to Gundam Anonymous.
I have 2 questions. Where'd you get the Argama and how much?
ReplyDeleteTo answer your question, I made it. It didn't take too long, but the toughest part were the catapult decks. As for how much, the majority of the ship was carved out of free styrofoam before being paneled with foam core. The materials set me back about fifty bucks including paint.
