As my wife is working still on the details in the cockpit, I move my V forward.All parts fits nicely together – little to none filling and sanding.The picture was taken on dry-fit combined fighter. Photoetched parts are great addition, unfortunately those will be hard to notice on completed build.

New project started – together with my wife, we’ll build two Valkyrie figthers from Macross movie.Those are 1/48 scale model kits from Hasegawa. First thing – the cockpit(s). We used photoetched parts from Hasegawa detail-up set. It looks sweet! Cockpits landed safely in the front fuselage parts, some additional sanding and gaps-filing was required but…

In March 2026, my scale models were showcased at the Embassy of Japan in Warsaw, alongside incredible works by fellow Polish modelers. It was a special honor and a truly rewarding experience to see my creations displayed in a place so closely connected to the culture that gave us Gundam. The exhibition was also a…

As the Kosmos LEDs set is really impressive, I think that the Gundam figure itself misses some lights.As within a build I added LEDs in the Gundam – now it is time to connect it and make it alive! I added one Arduino Nano to control the lights with simple Radio Receiver to get the…

It was really fantastic build – in my private ranking MGEX Strike Freedom Gundam is on the top! Great oob kit, amazing with KOSMOS LED kit (imho – it is a must have).My part was to make a model out of the plastic toy – I like it with all the work I put in…

After painting it looks like “real concrete” 🙂 Then I was up to add some details and pipes to the sidewalls. Some printed details were used. After a while I…

I’m not planning to recreate ruined down mobile… A bit of washes did the job right. Now the time has come to paint the base! 2. Red outlines were masked. 3. Chipping medium was applied and some initial pre-shading. 4. Main color applied – Gaahleri acrylics from Mecha Range. 5. Highlights here and there… 6.…

Acrylic gloss warnish went in – I like Gaahleri acrylics more and more…I found red color on the backpack exhaust a bit boring – need to adjust it.Additionally I painted funnel barrels. Yup – now it looks! Definitively better! Leg exhaust ports received photoetched nets to cover LEDs – the details is what I like!

Something like fifteen hundreds thousands decals after… for some time I need to rest from the water slides…Backpack and all armament received proper amount of “cautions/warnings/don’t steps” – it looks good! I decided to hide KOSMOS control box inside the base. To achieve that I need to rise the base by 7mm. Spontaneously I took…

All body decals are in place… to break the decal-fever, the time has come to fix the stand.I don’t like the stance and position of standing/flying Gundam supported with oob base arm.Quick decission – and 2cm of the arm were removed… Let it cure – we’ll see was that a good idea…. Now Strike stands…
