Considering that i haven't been playing much WoW and i've also been doing next to nothing in recent weeks, i finally decided to fix up my gundam. And boy i have to tell you, that damn thing is a bitch to fix up...all the itsy bitsy pieces can be a real pain in the ass. Its not so much of cutting out those pieces from the frame thats being a problem, its smoothening the rough edges thats a real bitch. Right now my right index finger is in a lot of pain thanks to some minor cuts from a blade and the constant pressure that i have to apply on sharp plastic pieces...ouch. Initially i thought i'd fix two parts a day, so on the first day i finished the head and the torso. During the last parts of fixing the torso my fingers were already near the pain threshold barrier but since i was already about to finish i thought that i'd just go ahead and walk the pain off.
Continued with the two arms (and hands) the next day with some lingering pains in my index finger and by the end of the day i ended up with even more cuts and felt more pain that i can't even open a pack of chilli sauce (you know the ones you get from mcdonalds). So today i concluded to reduce the amount of pain and to increase the healing rate of my injuries i decided that i'd just fix a part a day. So right now being the third day since i started this little mini project of mine i have only managed to complete five parts in total, as opposed to the whole thing which consists of a whooping 15 parts...roughly anyway didn't really bother counting.
So far though i am caught between how much i like the model, half of me really hate it because this particular model kit has sooooo many small parts that its really hard to make it look nice with smooth edges and blah blah blah. Not to mention some of the parts don't really seem to stick together nicely and therefore posing it after completion might be a serious problem, and this itself is a REALLY big problem as its suppose to be very posable. But on the other hand i would have to give credit to the designers because i think its a marvel as to how they designed the mechanics of the model. Due to the fact that its a transformable series, the mechanics and design of the model in whole is trully fascinating and something i wouldn't even dream of...its simply amazing to have come up with this.
Anyhow i hope that i can finish this before the end of the week so i can 'pinjam' my friends SLR to take some pictures of it, along with the rest of my model that i have already completed from before (only two la...no big deal). And while i'm at it i might as well take some pictures of other stuff as well....but no i won't take pictures of myself to change my profile pic, i think its fine the way it is...After all i'm suppose to be very very indecisive when in comes to making major decisions, at least thats what my horoscope says about me la, hahahaha!!! Even though i wanna finish this as soon as i can, i'm already starting to think of what am i gonna do after i've completed this mini project of mine...Oh well, i guess WoW can always be a fall back plan, lol.

which grade is this?
i'm glad my hobby is cheaper, more fun, and i wont risk getting cuts and shit...
watching tv (all day) is SO much better.
Wimal: Oh MG only, can't afford to buy a PG...a PG is actually easier to fix cause the parts are bigger since the scale is 1/60 compared to the MG's 1/100
Juli: Hrm, last i checked watching TV does not constitute as a hobby wor...oh well, to each his own (in your case her own) ;)
i tell you, it IS a hobby!!!
hmmph.
Juli: ok ok fine it is a hobby sheesh...talk about persistent. :P
