1-100 MG Wing Gundam

I am very excited to receive two master grades for my birthday! (I'm lucky to still be getting gifts at 23...) I was going to begin on heavyarms, but instead settled on Wing Gundam. I cracked her open and the kit looks absolutely phenomenal. The plastic detail is of the highest caliber, the kit is well engineered, and I have had little to zero problems putting the kit together. The skeleton (inner frame) is mostly completed, and the hard part (cutting, trimming, sanding, and priming) the armor pieces will take the most time. Here are some scans I am going to use in the introduction to the sprue world episode. Gundam kits are unique. They require no paint or glue, just snap them together. Of course that is where the rookies begin and end, and where more "pro" model builders can make masterpieces. This isn't a static model- the kit can bend, move and flex with its amazing japanese engineering.
