Currently working on something?

I just got done putting together and panel lining my RG Epyon that I've been working on for the past few days and am about to start adding stickers. It's my first one after a long break.

I used to be that way. Thought I'd never have the patience for it. Bought a few figures and ended up buying a Gunpla kit by accident. I went "what the hell, why not?" and have loved it ever since.

Not gunpla specifically, but I do enjoy me some model kits, currently in the processes of painting Nuke Matrix's Shadow: Yefuna Malkina (going to display her in her centaur configuration) and after that I need to paint Yukumo from Kotobukiya's Arcanadea series.
After that I might finally, after having it for nearly 3 years, paint the Kotobukiya Geno Breaker. But it's pretty intimidating due to how freaking huge it is.

You shouldn't need any of that unless you got some sort of specialty kit. Most just snap together. I'd get some nippers though to cut them out of the holders/sprues/runners/whatever they're called.

The kit says in the instructions that I need it. I just bought a cool robot box in moonspeak. I thought I could just clip it together but I'm definitely wrong lol

Ohhh, ok. Well, there's plenty of easier ones out there that don't require any of that if you ever want to get another one.

Gunpla, even stuff like perfect grades, are aimed more at older children and teens. So they are relatively easy to put together.

I've though about some of the Star Trek model ships. Are they that bad?

I started out with Zoids. I occasionally get a kit, but most of the time I don't particularly care unless it's something that really impressed me (I'm sure one day I'll get enough Doms to do a Jet Stream Attack diorama, but whatever).

The kits only sound intimidating to put together. They're not hard at all. You can pop the parts off the runners with your fingers if you really wanted to.

I built one a few years ago, but have been too lazy to build more. I also suck at panel lining.

I want to do that too. Got their Zakus from The Origin at least.

Panel lining takes a little bit of getting used to and even now after a couple of years of building kits I'm still not so great at it, but even a panel lining job that's not the best still makes the model pop more.

Dang, I'm not so great at painting. Lots of Gunpla look fine unpainted, but they can look even sweeter when they are painted. One day I hope I can learn how. I suck at what I've tried. With stickers I'm either really good at it or really bad at it depending on things. Sometimes I can be on point and others I have to keep repositioning if I don't accidentally drop the sticker. Maybe I'll try those down the road. Way down the road.

Friend of mine bought me a couple of kits, but I've never put one together before. I'll get to it eventually.
