Maybe discuss the negative effects on mental health of changing our clocks again that everyone hates and are tired of that you have not done anything about.

Are we setting our clocks back again this fall? Everyone hates it, why are we doing it? Please just give us one bit of good news.😀❤

1/100th scale pilot figures of Trowa Barton and Setsuna something, painted by a gunpla hack and photographed on a piece of wood, a final goodbye before Trowa goes back to his true owner, who knows what his name is.

I finished painting my friend's Trowa Barton figure, which I'm surprised nobody recognized since so many people are gundam wing/ heavyarms lovers. Here he is with that Exia pilot, whats-his-name, Setsuna? Stay cool, be good to your friends. 🙂❤️

1/100th scale gundam pilot figure stuck on a painting gadget and painted with white pants and blue shirt what every respectable pilot wears to destroy stuff these days, that nobody knows who he is.

I think my friend will be happy with his pilot figure, coming along pretty good 🙂❤️Recognize him better now? Hope you got to relax today.

1/100 pilot figure stuck on a painting gadget, waiting for a gunpla hack to prime him and paint him and then get back to doing gunpla 'cause geez, lazy or what?

Battletech minis stuck on a board waiting to be primed and maybe some sand stuck to their bases by a gunpla hack who is just being really lazy about doing gunpla that he's now dabbling in a totally different hobby.

Recognize this pilot? Painting him up for a friend. I also got some Battletech minis to paint because I think those are just so cool. Yup, being lazy! Enjoy your weekend, relax, maybe do some gunpla. 🙂❤️

You work really fast! This build looks so good❤️

Small 1/144 scale figures stuck on a painting gadget and primed black and looking a bit like victims of a volcano or maybe the Blob! ooahahaha!

Orange and grey painted gunpla parts on clip sticks photographed out of focus because the gunpla hack is too busy just messing around.

Blue and grey painted gunpla parts on clipsticks and photographed out of focus by a gunpla hack because, well it's his phone's fault! Yeah, crappy phone, that's why.

Modded and weathered zaku II standing and looking out the window, dreaming far off mecha battles on exotic planets with giant spaceships and beautiful space girls, and gunpla hacks who can take proper photos.

Some days it's just hard to focus. I hope you have a good week. 🙂❤️

Paltry white and grey 1/150 scale figures stuck on a figure painting gadget by some gunpla hack who keeps doing this instead of building some HG kits he started and is just taking so long to finish, geez.

Some parts of an HG GM on clip sticks painted kind of orange by a lazy gunpla hack who doesn't think Tylenol causes autism or that saying countries are going to hell is good diplomacy.

Oh man, I've been so lazy building these HG kits. I airbrushed 5 pieces and then messed with tiny figures again. But hey, it's not like I'm completely failing at world diplomacy like some people. Hold on for the weekend, don't forget to relax. 🙂❤️

Red, white, blue and yellow parts of a megasize RX-78-2 spread out on a cutting board, finally ready for a gunpla hack to assemble with trembling hands and a pounding heart.

I think you should take WIP photos so you can relive the experience, you know what I mean? The process becomes more than the result at some point. 🙂❤️ Try not to worry about stupid crap today.

Part of the box art for the MG Char's Zaku II showing that his bazooka had no seam 1/3 of the way down because Char knows that bazooka seams blow up when you shoot! And accuracy, yeah that.

A close-up of a beautiful megasize zaku II showing how the builder actually left the 1/3 seam and even pre-shaded it to make it officially a panel line. Pretty good approach, no shame! Not done by the gunpla hack, image from the net.

Close up of another excellent build of the megasize zaku II showing the seam 1/3 of the way down the bazooka, left as a panel line even though Char knows it would blow up the first time you fired it. This build not by the gunpla hack, image from the net of a non-Newtype's bazooka.

Close up of the megasize Zaku II's bazooka built by a gunpla hack who slaved for days and ate plastic sanding and filling that seam just to get this smooth tube. Bazooka hanging on the butt of the zaku, standing on a cutting mat, with no 1/3 seam visible on the tube just like Char likes it. Maybe a ribbed bazooka is better, know wha I mean.

Do you think you would leave that seam in the zaku II bazooka? I hid mine on the megasize and it was a lot of work. Better builders than me have left the seam; even hardcore guys are lazy, haha! MG box art included for comparison. Stay cool, weekend coming.🙂❤️ Relax, do gunpla.

Modded zaku II holding 2 heat hawks, built and photographed by a gunpla hack, standing among destroyed buildings in a diorama and armed with a panzerfaust and a grenade hanging dangerously by the zaku's crotch.

Close up of a modded zaku II built by a gunpla hack who extended the shoulder spike maybe because he's trying to compensate for something, and with a panzerfaust below out of focus because he left a seamline there that bugs him.

HG Zaku II standing in a diorama above a Wappa with a damaged building, holding 2 heat hawks but no gun because wow, too much guns this week, peace be with you.

Butt armor from a HG GM painted by a gunpla hack who liked how the off-white acrylic paint covered the pre-shading just how he wanted and sometimes things in life aren't a disaster.

Picked up the airbrush today and painted some gunpla, then messed around with photos. Find a way to rehumanize yourself, so many radicalized people out there. Stay cool! 🙂❤️ politics bad!

HG EZ8 parts all on clip sticks, primed and some pre-shaded waiting for some gunpla hack to paint them and stop being so lazy. Geez, he couldn't even focus the photo right, useless!

HG GM parts on clip sticks lying on a cutting mat, which could be so easily picked up and airbrushed by some lazy gunpla hack but no! He can't be bothered to fire up the paint booth. tsk-tsk

1/100 scale pilot figure painted mostly blue and grey on a black base by a gunpla hack who knows it's the pilot from the Exia but is too lazy to remember or Google it because man, that guy is lazy and he is trying to get out of working on those other kits, posed on a piece of wood.

I confess that I have 2 HG kits all prepped, primed and pre-shaded but I just wanted to quietly paint pilot figures because I'm lazy. See? It's not hard to confess, even if you confess that you are bad at voting. 🙂❤️ Try to relax.

Two 1/100 scale pilots stuck on a mini painting gadget, painted by a gunpla hack trying emulate miniature painters while forgetting about stupid stuff going on, you know, that stuff.

Lost track of how much time I spent just messing with these pilots. Also lost track of how much I forgot about politics and how much it healed my mental health. Hope you're having a good weekend. 🙂❤️

Hi Ms. Susan, can you please make it so we don't have to set our clocks back this fall? I can live with bad healthcare, expensive energy, high housing costs; I just can't stand that damn time change.🙂

Two 1/100 pilot figures first primed black by some hopeless gunpla hack.

Two 1/100 pilot figures first primed black and then hit with some white from above in a vain attempt to do zenithal like those brilliant miniature painters who are so skilled compared to your everyday gunpla hack.

Trying to paint these 1/100 scale pilots but they are so small. Really admire those miniature painters. Anybody know what color these spacesuits should be? Try to have some fun this weekend. 🙂❤️

Mega size zaku hand painted by a gunpla hack and looking all big and metallic and so big you could pick your nose, pointing at you accusedly because you're not doing gunpla.

Hey, long weekend is coming so you should try to do some gunpla! Who, you mean me? Yeah, me.
#gundam #ガンプラ #gunpla

You mean how well does it work or what's the process? Basically you just find some material to spray through as a kind of filter. I'm just a hack so usually it's hit or miss.🙄

Modded zaku shoulder piece, primed and painted with acrylic black paint by some gunpla hack.

Armor pieces primed with dark grey, then covered with dollar store baby wipes cut up and pulled tight over them, awaiting white paint airbrushed by a lazy gunpla hack who thinks this will make a marble effect.

Zaku shoulder piece on a clip-stick, with a decal and weathered a bit with metallic dry-brushing by a lazy gunpla hack. Still needs a top coat.

Long weekend, had time for gunpla! Finished my zaku shoulder piece except for the top coat, then prepped some pieces trying to do a marble effect. Think it'll work? I have no idea, lol. 😛❤️

HG zaku shoulder armor with center spike replaced with a spikier one by a gunpla hack with only 1/2 an hour for gunpla this week, ready for priming, painting and weathering maybe by sometime next year, lol.

Ready for primer, I think. Working full time, don't get much gunpla done during the week. At least it's better than ruining an economy or starting a war. Try some modding, you can do it! 🤠❤️
#gundam #ガンプラ #gunpla

Hey, you might want to engage with this:

This made me laugh out loud.❤️

Zaku shoulder armor with the center spike cut off so a longer, nastier spike can be added, by a relaxed and chillin' gunpla hack trying to forget the failing world.

So fun just messing around with minor mods like putting a longer spike on a zaku. Gunpla can be therapeutic, way better than starting senseless foreign wars. Stay cool, have a good week. 😔❤️

Hi, while you're there, do you think you could make it so we don't have to set our clocks back this fall? Thanks, that would be great. Ending the tariffs, fine, but that time change has to go.

If you don't prime your fingers too, you're not doing it right. 😛 ❤️

Inexpensive gundam-colored gaming mouse the gunpla hack got on Amazon and is using correctly because it has toast crumbs in it.

Haven't done much gunpla lately; my life's been sucked up playing Oblivion Remastered. And when I do, I use this hilarious gundam-style mouse I got on Amazon for cheap! Relax, enjoy your day, maybe do some gunpla and play video games. 🙂❤️

Mother isn't going to like him being alone with that woman for the interview.

Messy grey cutting mat with a clear plastic bin that a gunpla hack uses to clean gunpla parts, usually with an old green toothbrush, with lots of plastic parts, runners, sanding stuff, paint bottles, geez what a friggin' mess there.

Hey, do you wash your gunpla parts before you paint them? They used to say Bandai used a release agent that you should wash off, but I wash them mostly for the dust from sanding. Is there release agent on there or is that a myth? 🙂❤️ stay cool, wash yourself sometimes.

White freezer door slowly being covered in gunpla fridge magnets made by some nerd-like gunpla hack who has no idea what to do with all those gunpla kit boxes piling up but now, hahahaha! gimme magnets! And yes, there are ice cream treats in that freezer, shhh.

Okay, so I got this freezer in the gunpla lab. Every time I get some old fridge magnet, I cut a piece of a gunpla kit box off and gluestick it on and voila! I have this hilarious gunpla fridge magnet freezer covering project going on. 😃❤️try to have some fun today.

HG GM instruction panel showing multiple stickers being applied to a chest section before building, which the gunpla hack thinks Bandai should have avoided by using color separation instead because stickers bad!

Megasize zaku with new heat hawk, awakened in anger because Bandai was lazy and used yucky stickers instead of some fine color-separated parts that we all know they are capable of doing, aaargh.

This HG GM kit has me using stickers on the chest; I might use the triangle one but I'm painting those vents instead. Stickers bad! Me get heat hawk! 😛❤️ enjoy your weekend, maybe do gunpla.

Back of an MG Shin Matsugaya Zaku the gunpla hack built some time back.

Some MG pilot painted blue and grey with brown boots by a gunpla hack who was working on small stuff to escape the big, scary world out there.

Close up of a HG Zaku II foot with the rocket launcher, painted and weathered by a gunpla hack who wishes he had sanded those mold lines on the rockets better.

I confess that I'm so curious to see what gunpla you're working on, I'll give a ❤️ to every photo you post. Maybe not those "new kit I just bought" photos because, you know, backlog. So hey, please share your experience. 🙂❤️
