MG Red Frame, Finally
Wed 2010/07/28 09:34 JST
I've been working on this guy on and off since it was released. I've finally gotten around to finishing it. Of course, silly me, I forgot a lot of the details I wanted to do. Oh well, at least it looks alright.

Off-topic since I know little about Gunpla, but it your username "Falldog" a David Bowie reference? Like "Falldog Bombs the Moon"?
I think you're the first person to get that, and I've been using the name for years. :D
Well, my username is from the much older DB song "1984". They'll take your Pretty Cranium and fill it up with air ...
I'm one of the few remaining Bowienet members -- saw DB on the Reality tour in Montreal from the 4th row. It was one of the best moments of my life .
I saw him ten to twenty rows back during his stop in Hershey, PA. It was fantastic.
I didn't realize the hand design are like this, cause I thought it would be straight until the elbow area. O_O
These kits are probably the most poseable MG by far.
still looking to get this myself.... how did you like the build? looks like a good kit to work with. Any parts of fittings to watch out for?
It was a while since I built it, but I don't recall any issues with it on my Blue Frame. On this guy, the vfin is pretty lose and can fall off and disappear if you're not paying attention. It's a pretty simple build with great results.
