Posted this up over at http://gundamaustralia.com/forum/index.php?topic=2378.0.
I recommend you check it out as there is some pretty amazing work in this thread
Excuse the use of a camera phone but I can snap and upload as I go!!
Also excuse the lack of descriptive text but I actually dont know the names of half of these off the top of my head!
As some of you may know, my environment (ie its cold and or wet here 9 months of the year….Xmas Day was the first day Ive worn shorts since summer started…..) precludes me from doing much painting (so I snap A LOT) so its a bit of a rush in the summer months (hence the 'waiting for paint backlog!)
WARNING PIC HEAVY!!
