I am attempting to complete four modern <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hobbywave.com\/plastic_models\/gundam\/mg\" target=\"_blank\">Master Grade<\/a> kits by sometime in April. (partially to reduce the  footprint on my shelves) The kits I hope to complete are the following:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chars  Zaku 2.0<br \/>\nVictory Gundam ver Ka<br \/>\nAstray Blue Frame 2nd Revise<br \/>\nGN-X<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The  GN-X is on its way, but the other 3 are all cut out and sanded and it&#8217;s only  taken me 5 days to do so. These first 3 kits  surprisingly have no seams to be glued which is amazing. There&#8217;s just  some flash lines, very minor, on some of the weapon barrels to be dealt  with. These kits are so easy that it&#8217;s almost painful based on some of  the other stuff I&#8217;ve been building.<\/p>\n<p>All of these kits will have  some sort of customization to the color schemes and will have minor  add-ons like aluminum bells for the Zaku and lights for the GN-X drive. I may do one more if I have time.<\/p>\n<p>Anyone  want to try and match or beat that? <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/fichtenfoo.net\/forum\/index.php?topic=5472.0\">Click here to join in on the challenge!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: red;\">Deadline of 4\/30\/2010<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Personally,  I hope to be done by 4\/1, but am being realistic.<\/p>\n\n<!-- Facebook Like Button v1.9.6 BEGIN [http:\/\/blog.bottomlessinc.com] -->\n<iframe src=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/like.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Ffichtenfoo.net%2Fblog%2Fmgx4-challenge%2F&amp;layout=standard&amp;show_faces=false&amp;width=450&amp;action=like&amp;colorscheme=light&amp;font=trebuchet+ms\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" allowTransparency=\"true\" style=\"border:none; overflow:hidden; width:450px; height: 30px; align: left; margin: 2px 0px 2px 3px\"><\/iframe>\n<!-- Facebook Like Button END -->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So I have proposed an interesting challenge for myself and perhaps one of you would like to try it as well.
