Super secret resin kit mod starting tomorrow

Don't get too excited, I will just be sticking my Takamori Haruka kit in a tub of oxi to clean off the release agent :)  This project is going to be a lot more difficult than my first custom job but it will be great experience plus the creator of the character wants me to keep them updated on the progress of the kit and considering who they are, I should get more exposure :)

Time to relax

Well as you can see, I have finished my Seras Victoria kit (more pics in the gallery).  I'm gonna take a wee rest while I get more reference pics for my next kit which will be another (more complicated) custom job.

Still doing my running with the Zombies, Run! app which I recommend to anyone that likes zombies and wants to get into better shape.  According to the app I've ran over 50km which I find quite amazing :D

She is FINALLY here!

Well the submissions has ended for the competition so I am free to show off my entry.  All the photos have been added to the Cerion page and as always larger images are available on my DeviantArt page.

Getting there

New photo of the Seras Victoria WIP uploaded. Not much left to do, mostly hand painting, then seal, shade, seal again and put her together. Oh yeah, and fill the gap between the back and front hair once I put it together, sand it, prime it and paint it. Still doing my running with the Zombies, Run! app, which has gone down in price again for a couple of days. Ran just under 5 km today, I haven't ran that far since I was a child. I'm definitely going to keep it up as I love the story and well it's getting me into shape.

What I've been at

Well I started painting Seras Victoria a couple of days ago (pictures have been uploaded).  Since I used grey primer for pretty much everything I have to paint the skin areas white first before painting the skin tone.  It is a pain in the ass painting one coat, letting it dry a bit, painting another coat, letting it dry a bit... but the lighting is crap in my work room so it's hard to see mistakes on white primer plus I have a load of grey primer and only about half a can of white.

I started running about 3 weeks ago using an app called "Zombies, Run!", it's a great app where you have to run and gather supplies (automatically) while helping a town grow.  At random times you will be told that there is a zombie horde chasing you and you will hear them groaning and a beeping sound that will get faster as they get closer.  To outrun the zombies you run 20% (I think) faster than your previous 2 or 5 minutes for about a minute.  The story is great and it's only about £3 at the moment.  If like me you're wanting to shed those holidays lbs I would highly advise you get it.  Available for both ios and some android devices.

I had to stop running after Monday last week as I hurt my ankle, I don't know if I've sprained it or anything, I'm too stubborn to to go to the doctors but if I'm still in pain tomorrow then I'll definitely be going on Friday to see what I've done to it, plus see what the hell this weird pain is that I'm getting in my hand every morning.

Back from my break

I'm finally back to working on a kit, photos have been added to the WIP/Gallery section.  Just a reminder, my photos of Cerion should be up around the end of February, start of March.  I'll probably have Seras mostly finished by then.

Coming back (soon)

To those that read my blog, sorry it's been so quiet for the past month.  I've been both busy and lazy, I started working on Seras Victoria last year but then got lazy and wasn't in the mood to work on her.  I'll be getting back to work maybe next week.  She's a very easy kit, especially compared to the custom build kit I was commissioned to build so she shouldn't take as long to build and you won't have to wait months to see her after she is finished.  

Hope you all had nice holidays and ate maybe a bit too much :)
