1/100 HG Gundam Sandrock Custom: WIP part 2

        I'll resist myself from using the word "hiatus" for this post...because there's no pride using a word you just recently learned from google. I'm just being honest.^^

       There's a saying that once you started something, you must finish it (even if you're an exhausted Wipeout contestant). Seems like the acronym WIP for me is "work-in-pahinga" instead of work in progress. It took me a month to acquire diligence again...as these hindrances to my gunpla-building are pulling the interest and nerdiness out of me...convincing me that there's life aside from gunpla.

       Aside from almost two weeks of continuous rain...and two days of enduring stomach ache (curse those red salted eggs!)....these turn-based Japanese rpg's kept me from doing any gunpla-related stuff.

Finished Tactics Ogre: The Knight of Lodis on my phone's GBA emulator

I made Rovin the main protagonist of the game.^^

Finished the game in 34 hours and 50 mins.

Also finished Final Fantasy Tactics Advance...205 out of 300 missions completed

       The real culprit here is the continuous rain. The air is too humid to paint. No matter how many hours I've waited for it to dry...still few painted parts have moist...still thankful that our cave didn't experience heavy floods like what the capital region experienced.

           Just like what I did with my heavyarms last decade...I mean last year, mixing colors is done by eye. No ratio whatsoever because I hate measuring. I mixed blue, white and purple poster colors for the sandrock's color scheme.

ugly painting error on the waist

Different shades of gray...the lighter shade is for the front skirts and shoulder armor, the darker shade is for the two heat shortels, knee and elbow joints.
