Raya Supprise! XD

Today I went out with my friend, went Raya to my other friend's house ^^, after back to home, I found this on my computer table D:

XN1

At first I thought it was my MG Exia IGM but.. its kinda small.. so I open it...

ITS XN RAISER !!! XD

XN3XN2

XN4
Look how thick the book is :D
My first time buying Hobby Megazine,
before I just downloading scans and stuffs ^^;;

I got 2 XN Raiser and 1 Hobby Japan 10 ^^ All thanks to my friend 'justpassingby' for getting this to me, thanks bro. The Hobby Japan + XN Raiser is somewhere around RM70++(USD20ish), not sure how much I have to pay to Justpassingby XD, maybe ill pay a bit more plus some 'Duit Raya' XD.

I kinda supprise that he still give me another one (without the book of course), he said that theres a shop that selling XN Raiser separate than the book, its arround RM 30++(USD 8ish) forgot the name of the shop tho.. ill ask him later lol.

On the side note.. Ive tested my airbrush with the compressor.. All I can say is.. pretty decent.. here some of my tiny WIP of HG 00 Raiser DC ^^;;

mask1mask2
mask3mask4

Bleach Episode 230 - Unexpected Supprise XD


I just finished watching Bleach 230 right after back from work lolz.

Wow... I wasnt expected this filler arc will be awesome for its starting episode XD. What a brilliant idea for the plot, who knows that ur Zanpakuto can betray you!! XP.

I guess Kubo-sensei really put some nice supervising for this filler arc, the new character is awesome! Kazeshini is baddass with his awesome laugh lol. Tobiume, Sode no Shirayuki and Haineko is WIN! Senbonzakura and Hyorinmaru designs is simply godly :P

I really like most of the Zanpakuto materialization designs.. All though these are not their True identity (as Zabimaru is baboon+snake and Hyorinmaru is ice dragon), In this filler their appearance more like human due Muramasa influences (i think, more like Muramasa's ver :P)


The awesome Hyorinmaru and Senbonzakura~


I think Muramasa is the baddest filler villain all time :P, got this Ulqiorra feeling and some Aizen confidence looking thinggy XD

Most of the scenes are got this movie like feelings... drawing is good, animation is awesome, I like the battle sequence between Renji and Byakuya ^^, some humor on Hitsugaya and Matsumoto :), cant wait for next ep ^^

I feel kinda weird right now.. Its rare that filler arc starting esp are excited like this one.. Its been a while since I'm excited to watch Bleach eps (since i also read manga). This filler arc definitely going to be much more better than Bounto arc and Amagai arc together ^^. Hope this continues~ Kudos to Studio Pierrot and Kubo-sensei~~

This episode make my day after tired of work's OT and stuffs >_<;;

I really need some free time to continue my gunplaing, uguu~~

Macro Studio - Do It Yourself ^^

As you can see above, I didnt really like the shot i took, also the lighting are not that good, didnt really use better light since i dont know how. Im really noob at photograph >_<

I have been searching on net bout cheap way to have professional looking photograph for my gunpla stuffs. Found a way on some website, they called it Macro Studio. What exactly is Macro Studio?

Well.. its pretty much like the big photograph studio just the different is, this one are used for photograph small things. Here some sites that i found that shows you how to do it yourself building Macro Studio~

Cardboard type Macro Studio


Pipe type Macro Studio


I choose to make Macro Studio using pipe which is more stable and durable ^^

My setup, using normal home lamp instead flash lamp >_<

here are my result on HG Arios

I dont like foil sticker >_<, still waiting for my paints to arrive T_T


Not the best pose, but the DIY Macro Studio did the job.. i like how the lighting are.. might put another light on the other side to eliminate shadows there,

Some other test photo~~

Panasonic AA Batteries... come with my LZ8 camera when I bought it ^^


Yes... its my glasses ^^


my 'nasakenai' cellphone... pretty much banged up there >_<;;
Using Halogen lamp I found (yellow), when took the photo it has a lil bit redish
edited it in Photoshop ^^;;


I really need to buy tripod, my hand shakes all the way taking photos lol.

Thats all for today..

next will be WIP on HG 00 Raiser DC, also going to add some finishing on my other gunpla >_< huhu
