Sakura Matcha KitKat

April 26, 2010 — Z

Just purely out of curiosity, I picked up a box of green tea KitKat to try out. I love green tea (ryokucha, matcha, sencha, genmaicha, hojicha… or just tea in general) so I thought “hey, maybe it can be a good combo…”.

Packing Up Some Gunplas…

April 24, 2010 — Z

If there is anything that limits the number of gunplas you can have besides money, it is space. Despite the size of my room and the number of Ikea Detolf shelves, I am finally forced to do something that I thought I would never have to- Pack away older models for more display space. This is not a one time thing either and it will be ongoing for as long as I build new models. The first to go are the Zeta Plus A1 and the FA ZZ.

Wii Classic Controller Pro GET

April 20, 2010 — Z

So today was the release day for the Wii Classic Controller Pro here in the US (out in Japan since last year -_-), and thought I head over to Gamestop to pick one up since I recently picked up Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom (playing the game with the wiimote is sacrilege). Truth be told, I only discovered the existence of this version just last week after I got fed up with using the wiimote for TvC. No matter how you look at it, you can’t deny that it shares more resemblance to the PS2/3 controller than anything Nintendo has ever released >_>.

Stickers for MG Musha Gundam MK II

April 19, 2010 — Z

For the China release only. Thankfully it is optional on stickers and not actually etched onto the parts. The Gundam has just lost all its menacing aura. Can we get a “OH HELLS NAWWW!!!”?

I don’t doubt someone somewhere out there… will like it ^^;

HG Cherudim GNHW/R Review

April 18, 2010 — Z

Here’s my Gunpla review for the month: HG 1/144 Cherudim Gundam GNHW/R. A rather light review this time around. There’s a bit of quality inconsistency with the photos in the review but hopefully, it is still enjoyable overall. As always, thank you for looking!

Korean Food

April 17, 2010 — Z

Went out for Korean food with friends the other day. Guess we decided to skip the usual kalbi and bulgogi and try something new this time around ^^. Took my XSi along so I can practice shooting food… something I am terrible at.

Hanami with the Canon XSi

April 15, 2010 — Z

It is finally starting to feel like spring here so what better things to do with a camera than to go out and snap shots of the blooming flowers (beside shooting gunpla)? So here are some shots taken by my friend over the weekend with my camera. It’s her first time using an SLR so please provide some constructive criticisms and feedback (be nice).

Tatsunoko vs. Capcom

April 11, 2010 — Z

No camera so had to make do with stock image ^^;. I am very late to the party as I had JUST found out that this game was released in the US. I knew this game existed for the JPN market when it was announced but didn’t look into it at all (kinda drop out of Capcom after MMX6, SFIII and MvC2). When I saw this at my local store, I was like “eh… so it is out in the US… whatever…” until I examined the boxart closely…

Topcoat on Your Topcoat on…

April 9, 2010 — Z

Sorry for the lack of updates recently. I’ve let my friend borrowed both of my cameras for the weekend to play around so she can decide what kind of camera she wants. I won’t be able to finish Cherudim’s photoshoot for awhile… nor start another project because I can’t take WISP shots >_>.  Amazing how Gunpla blogs are so dependent on cameras xD. Well, this means I can probably start playing SRW Z again or do my homework haha. Anywayyyy… Got another shipment of topcoat in today and it’ll be my last because with this batch, I’m guaranteed to cover the rest of my entire “Future Projects” plus maybe 3-4 more extra models. No more topcoat buying! You can check ebay but damn are they expensive ($20 for 2; no way did I paid that much though) @.@

Yakisoba

April 6, 2010 — Z

Giving something new a try this week- Yakisoba! I have never tried making this before but it looks simple enough so thought I’d give it a go.
