A Small Preview

If my 2 readers haven't already figured out, one of my most beloved hobbies is building GunPla. Now, due to technical issues with photographing the actual models, I haven't been able to successfully capture the main attraction properly. I blame my poor camera skills - they aren't yet up to par, but I hope the blog turns out to be a good learning experience.

So rather than assault your eyes with overexposed shots of my first Gundam models, I figured I'd show a piece of history that I managed to preserve this whole time.



This is the box for the original 1:144 Scale RX-78-2 Gundam + G-Armor model that was released in the early 80's. I'll follow up with shots of the actual model soon, but for now, this is all I have to offer.

As for all of you modelers who throw away the boxes, please reconsider! Many of the boxes are pieces of art in and of themselves and make a wonderful display piece to accompany your completed Gunpla!
