I think these were my nine year old son's Christmas presents! I cleaned up the parts (clipped even though you didn't need to) from the sprue while he assembled them. Only a few parts he struggled with getting together. I'd really love to get into this Hobby again as I think I started making these around nine too. Nice memories of going back to Hong Kong and hunting through the back alleys for that Toy Shop selling these the cheapest. With money pulled out from my Lucky Red Envelopes and not realising how much a $500 dollar note was. I was just escstatic that I had several boxes of Gundams to build. Although everything so expensive now. I just need to get my Tau Riptides the right proportion and I can probably start scratching building these!!

I believe I'm finally recovered after 28 days laster! Although I've barely started and getting a little tired, so potentially this will not get very far. It's the Easter week and I need to save my energy to keep the two kids entertained. This little project is based on some other models I've seen and although out of place along my various Ghazs, it puts the "P" in CaPCon (Cosplay and Prop Convention). The Commisssar for reference of size and I'll probably keep the shape of that random piece of plastic from my bit box.
It's almost a month and I've still not fully recovered. Seems I have an acid inbalance in my stomach, causing me to vomit. At least I finally got myself to the doctors and get myself some medication. So a month of no activity, both in this hobby and life itself :( Well at least I found myself some PECO scenic landscape replacements. I originally had two, a plain sky and mountain lake. However I left these out and the sun had faded some of the colours. I've been meaning to replace these, but never found them at a decent price. Now I have five of these all for less than £14. If only they did sci-fi themed backgrounds, or a desert background for my Orks. I just need to get well enough to use them.
Other than this blog, the rest of this site is falling behind with a mounting pile of updates I want to do. The WIP Parade will have lots to update as well as photos I still yet to take to showcase my Tau Battlesuits. So instead of working on any of these, I've cheated and just re-posted a photo I always wanted to bring out amongst the rest in Models on Parade. Hopefully it will give me some inspiration to do more, before I start on a new project or try and finish off my current one!
