Gundam Wallpaper - UC Series #1 ~ Amuro Ray Emblems

Well, someday after work, I surfed at some blog and find an amazing artwork. That artwork really take a hook on me. Very simple design and color but yet really detailed.

check it out his work at http://adamcbeamish.com/category/blog. Awesome indeed.

So, I'm inspired to make something that similar with it, but this time it's a gundam-themed ones..


I remembered that I used to like to make wallpapers from gundam or something that I like.
so here it is, another wallpaper that I made. I picked Amuro Ray Insignia because he's the first of the gundam pilots.


Feel free to grab it if you like :)

Revised: MBF-02S WEISSASTRAY

Second kit finished (hurray) :3
but I'm messed up at the finishing (especially using airbrush and lining), probably because I was too hasty when doing this. Well still, that is no excuse for this horrible job >.< (actually satisfied with the modification job, but did not satisfied with the paint job)


Name: MBF-02S WeissAstray
Type: prototype long range use support mobile suit
Modeler: MaftyNavue

Weapons:
2 x "Igelstellung" 75mm multi-barrel CIWS (fire-linked)
2 x beam saber
1 x Type 71 beam rifle
1 x "Nidhoggr" High Presure Particle beam rifle

Description:
To defend their country from either Earth Federation or ZAFT, Orb need more firepower despite it's small sized country and it's location is an island making it vulnerable to be attacked from many position. Orb already has it's massive and strong Navy but their strategic leader think it's still need support from mainland to minimize enemy threat.

MBF-02S WeissAstray is what come of from one of the Orb engineer. Basically it's a long range supportive mobile suit capable to strike at long range even at atmosphere, thanks to "Nidhoggr" High Pressure Particle beam rifle. because it can pierce through the atmosphere, "Nidhoggr" also can penetrate enemy beam coating shield with ease. This with an additional boosters and stabilizers make WeissAstray a perfect unit to defend Orb nationality from sea and space entry mission.

Imoutou Workshop, 11 Dec 2011

Latest Workshop at Imoutou with some AGE exhibiton.

the event went out smoothly, thanks to Vandalier for the workshop, we got from basic (seamline removal, basic sanding, sprue removal) until a glimpse of shading (really-really a glimpse, you stingy! :D), hopefully this workshop will improve my basic and airbrushing for the next project ^_^

here is the FR at their website:
Imoutou Workshop

Here is my FR, sorry for the blurry pic, these are snapped from my phone camera :P
I forgot to bring my camera along..

Well, not much actually because some of the FR at the Imoutou website was taken by me :D, so I forgot to take some of the pic for my own blog >.<

meanwhile the astray is nearly finished, so I decided to start new project. Actually it's already much in Progress, I'm going to make a WIP post about that too. But for now, here is the sneak peek:

New Gundam TV Series - Gundam Age

Well, obviously this is the new TV series of gundam.

Gundam Age



Already watched ep1 and 2, personally I think it's still good despite the character design more like rockman and digimon-styled character.
What surprised me is, we can see full episode 1 and 2 at youtube with english subtitle (official from Bandai too). I think Bandai truly in verge of gaining more young "follower" and spamming more HG AGE kit with more valuable price (around 1200 Yen, compared with HGUC which around 1800 Yen +)

So what do you think about this new gundam series?

You can see episode 1 and 2 here: (Youtube link, South East Asia Only)
