Photofest Japan 2010

I just noticed the PhotoFest Japan 2010 banner on HLJ and took a look. Seems pretty interesting, and considering how I just got my first dSLR which I'm still not entirely apt with, I'm thinking over whether it'd be a good idea to attend.

Just thinking, for now.

I need to arrange my stuff better

So, there's been a disc on my SRH Faiz's base for I can't even remember how long, upside-down, and I'd just been leaving it there, not really caring. And then yesterday I finally turned it over to look at what it was and...

Metal Wolf Chaos? What the fuck are you doing here, I took down the Xbox over half a year ago! (The disc below it is the first from the Anime Legends complete 08th MS Team DVD set, I have no idea what it's doing there either)

Anyway, after that, I decided to go mess around in L4U and...
...yeah.

I naturally looked in the Ace Combat 6 case thinking it got swapped with L4U but it was empty.

Eventually,

ACFA is of course still in my 360 where I've been messing around a lot lately. Nice.

Anyway, yeah. I really need to arrange my stuff better.

Oh, and I returned the 360 games to their rightful positions but Metal Wolf and 08th MS Team #1 are still on Faiz's base. Eh.

Figuarts Ixa

名護さんは最高です！

This week's loot (15th February 2010)

All from Amazon except for Ixa.

Bukiya White Glint

I've finally started on my White Glint. One arm done.

So that this doesn't end up taking two years like my Psycho Gundam, I'm staying offline from now on till it's done.

Totally unrelated but I think I'll be getting the Granzon kit next.


Addition, 11th February 2010: By "staying offline" I meant except for progress reports here. Finished both arms and a leg. I'm doing the panel lining as I go along. Think I'm about halfway done.

I plan to display the thing in in-game OB mode (i.e.- With the core's boosters all out but not really transformed like in the opening) with the assault armour things out. To replicate how the fucker just loves to AA you while OBing past with perfect timing in the game.

I'm considering making one of the ACs I use in the game out of kit parts but changed my mind after considering how much it'd cost, how many parts I'd have left over, and how much painting I'd have to do (don't forget how I can't even paint), and how as far as I know some of the parts hasn't even made their way into Bukiya's VI series yet.

I'm pretty sure that this setup is overweight in the current regulation. Can't remember which one I used it in, but eh.

Head- Hogire
Core- Aaliyah
Arms- Lahire
Legs- Glint
Shoulders: Boosters
Left arm weapon: Laser bazooka
Right arm weapon: Dragonslayer
Back weapons: 少佐砲 Acrux x2
Stabilizers: I'm not even going to bother to try figuring out.
(If you can't tell, these parts were chosen solely based on how they look)

Let's see, to get all these, I'd need: Supplice (core and laser blade, 4620 yen), Stasis (arms and laser bazooka, 5460 yen), White Glint (legs, 7140 yen), Hogire (head, 5040 yen). So yeah, that'd be 22260 yen not including whatever I'd have to get for the boosters and laser cannons (assuming they make a kit of the Reiterpallasch and weapon sets with the boosters, that'd probably be around another 12000 yen).

And of course I'd need to go paint everything.

...yeah, not a good idea.

I think I'll get the Noblesse Oblige and Unsung later, though.


Addition, 15th February 2010: Finally finished the White Glint.
