Hello to all my dear readers.  I'm sorry that I have been so so quiet and haven't been able to post much but here is another one for 2017.  This is the second T-62 kit from the fantastic line of T-62 offer by Trumpeter. This is actually a commission build for a dear little brother.  Here in this link, you can see the first T-62 I did -  http://

Hello to all my dear readers. Finally, I have managed to do what I used to do when I was in the UK. Progress after Progress and reveal after reveal. And here is another one for 2017. This is the second offering of the kind from TML (Tiger Model Limited). The kit is fantastic for its price. This kit also happened to be my second Tiger Model kit and after this, I am hooked on Tiger Model. Some

Finally, This kit is finished. I took my time around with it. This is a valentine day gift that I received in 2016 but actually only managed to post it now. (This happened since 2015 and I have been picking up my modelling pace since then http://modeller-innovation.blogspot.com/2015/024/what-is-going-on-with-my-life-now.html ) The it is from Tiger Model (TML) and it is such a fantastic kit.

Hello my dear readers. I would like to apologise for my lack of updates and maintenance. Since I have got back to Burma, I have lost the will the blog but I am starting to pick myself up. I have finished this kit quite some times ago and I would like to re-kindled my blog with this post. The idea behind this one is to show a suit sporting a german three tone camo scheme. As the title said, it

Yes, this is one of the last few models I finished before I had to leave the UK and return to this god forsaken country called Burma which I am still stuck even until now as I am figuring out my next move as in where to go and how to go so ( go as in migrate ). This is a kit that I bought on impulse. I was buying some supplies and paints from Creative Models (UK) and they have this fantastic

Quite some times ago ( probably back in 2013 ), I sent my good friend and a very talented modeller Thanos [check out his Youtube channel] two copies ( or was it one? I cannot remember well) of extra weathering magazines I had lying around. Thanos was starting into weathering and I sent him the books so as to help him with weathering. It was a very small gesture but Thanos was

I have always liked how the Twins look; that G04 and G05 ( RX-78-4 and 5 respectively) and I have always wanted to do some decent works on them so I waited until I gained enough skills to paint them in to be presentable. The idea behind this one is to show a suit that has done missions after missions on earth during the heavy fighting offensives periods of the One Year War. As such, I decided

 Good day to you all dear readers. I may not be a great modeller or a world famous one but I know for a fact that I do have my fans and the dear readers who read this blog and support all my modelling works. For my dear readers and fans, I make this post to tell you guys what has happened to me. For the time being until god knows how long, I am stuck in Burma. For those who do not know

Good day to you all.  This will be my first post to greet the new year with. I wish you all a very happy new year. I haven't post anything since 2015 started due to stress concerning some hiccups in my life. But I won't bother you with my problems. Anyway, I have been planning to type this up for a few months now. So here it is - I have seen so many people out there asking question

Good day people. It's almost Christmas. Hope you guys are done with xmas shopping and ready to exchange gifts. I'm sure you all are aware that I am building a quick dual build of the JS-4 and the KV-5. Well, I have finished both of them. I planned to do a finished post for each separately and since I have already posted about the KV-5, here's the JS-4. For a detail review of the

Right. Time to update this. Last time, I stopped at putting paint on the KV-5. Let's carry forward from that. Following the highlights and shadow on the whole vehicle, I pin wash with the colour '' Burnt Umber '' and used Naples yellow, Cobalt blue, white, Vandyke brown and a very small black oil to blend all the colours in and this is what I got -After this, I weathered the running gears and

Hello all. The Hummingbird has another finished gunpla kit to show off. Well, ok, I wouldn't call this ''show off'' because I messed up alot with this kit. Anyway, this is a kit that has take me 2 year in the making. Back in 2012, the guys from Mech Art Community ( including me ) forum decided on a big online competition and this legend was my entry build for that competition. A lot of things

As you all know, since the mid 2012 ( give or take a few months ), we have ushered in to a golden age of modelling. The golden age brings us an overwhelming amount of kits, paints, weathering products and educational books and DVDs. The process of getting the information necessary for a good model with an attractive finish is easier than years ago, and generally the quality of models made all

Let's talk about Weathering, shall we? To be specific, weathering on GUNPLA and the misconception of it and how people are weathering their GUNPLA kits and a bit of a tips and pointers and dos and don'ts of weathering. Before I write anything, I want to say this disclaimer -I AM IN NO WAY A MASTER IN WEATHERING. I AM WRITING THIS USING MY OWN OBSERVATION, MY EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND AND

Good day to you dear readers.. Hope you readers having a good day and all is well with you guys. Yes, this is the T-80 that I have been building so slowly for about 2 months. Finally took some times off to take photos of this. For a detail review of the kit, please refer to my review post I made for this - LINK.  I have purposely taken off the fuel drums as I think this baby looks

Right.. Update is due on this WIP .... I will start with the JS-4 for the update - With the lower hull all done, I glued on the large fender piece with a small strip of P.E. on the front mud flap. The flaps and fenders are all one long piece ( shown with the blue arrow )Closed up the side skirts after that. Yes, yes, I know.... if I do that, what's that point of going the trouble to have the

Right .. so with the T-80 finished ( photos to be taken ), I decided to go for something more simpler. The T-80 was a complicated kit and it really tired me out so I need something to chill and enjoy more. Looking into my back-log, I remembered my JS-4 and my very freshly acquired KV-5. Knowing that those twos are simple kits ( albeit the JS-4 is not as simple as the KV-5 as it is from Trumpeter)

I have been brooding weather or not I should be posting this but after talking with GundamUK and both having agreed that this is not a contentious issue I decided to go with it. I have already wrote something similar 3 years ago ( LINK ) but I guess it got buried under my avalanche of wips and finished product posts. So....... the issue at hand ... the question of '' What gunpla

Hello Dear readers....  I have another finished kit to share with you. and no, this is not the T-80 I have been building. Yes the T-80 is finished but I haven't got around to taking photo of it yet.  Anyway, this is a kit that I bought on impulse. I was at Hannants one day grabbing some paint and Tamiya cement and my eyes fell on this little IFV with a retail price of £25 so I bought

So, as you all are aware, I am building my T-80 and after my latest update as I was stumped on how to weather it so I asked at the end of my update '' any idea how I should weather it guys? ''.  As or now, I have shared the T-80 WIP across 4 forums and surprisingly, there was only one suggestion/discussion/advice regarding my question.  Much as I am more than grateful to that

Alright ... last update on this baby gal -Now that I have finished painting, it was time for the pin wash. Doing pin wash on this wasn't exactly a quick job. So many surface details.Per the suggestion of a talented modeller who goes by the name of Coen, I used Burnt Umber for the pin wash colour. Being tired of making too many kits with clumps of mud; dry or wet, I decided to weather this gal in

I am an avid fan of World of Tanks and when the premium tier 8 KV-5 was available in the shop, I jumped on the chance and bought it immediately. I have never regretted buying this premium and I really love it. It's just a nice to play bruiser.I have always wanted to see the KV-5 in a kit form and Takom came to the rescue.When this kit was announced, I couldn't hold back my excited and almost

Right ... up date is due on this baby. Haven't touched it for a long time. I been on a vacation with sister and family friends.Works continued on the Turret.Last time, I left things here -Before I work on it, I had some almost empty bottle of green paints so while cleaning them, I decided to spray all those green on the turret as a mean to serve as a primer so you will see a very light green

Update time. This time- I will be focusing on the turret.Started by gluing the two halves of the turret together. The turret comes with moulded on cast texture but it's a little soft but since I'm happy with this so I didn't put on the extra cast texture.This is how the turret looks - After that, I started putting on the ERA blocks (this is the kontakt-1 bricks according to sources).I stared on
