MG 1/100 MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam 2.0

GUNPLA 2024

Here's everything I built this year, from September to December. It took me a while, but I'm glad to finally be getting back into it. I was in a much better place this year, both mentally and physically, which really improved my motivation to get some builds done. I've already started on my first build of 2025, and I've got a big multi-kit project lined up for the year, too.

Featured kits:

MG 1/100 RX-93 ν Gundam

HGCC 1/144 WD-M01 / SYSTEM-∀99 ∀ Gundam

1/100 GN-004 Gundam Nadleeh / GN-005 Gundam Virtue

MG 1/100 WD-M01 / SYSTEM-∀99 ∀ Gundam

Here's a kit that I've wanted to paint for a long time now, and I'm happy to have finally been able to. ∀ Gundam is one of my favorite designs in the franchise, and this MG kit is fantastic, even for a kit that's almost 20 years old at this point!

1/100 GN-004 Gundam Nadleeh / GN-005 Gundam Virtue

HGCC 1/144 SYSTEM-∀99 / WD-M01 ∀Gundam (called "Turn A Gundam")

I built it again! Last time, I painted it in a metallic candy coat, and this time, I painted it in the exact opposite style! Turn A is one of my favorite designs, so I'm happy to build another one.

MG RX-93 νGundam (Version 1.0)

I built the original version because I don't like the opening Psychoframe gimmick on the Ver Ka. It's not the Unicorn, it's the Nu! It only has Psychoframe around the cockpit! I also prefer the proportions and design on the older version.

In Super Mario Sunshine, it is possible for many NPCs that are not usually supposed to sink into goop to actually be made to sink into goop during regular gameplay. Whenever Mario passes through goop, he leaves a small trail of it after himself. The trail can be accumulated as passing through it lets Mario extend it by a few more steps, allowing Mario to (very slowly) take the goop nearly anywhere on the map by doing it repeatedly.

As such, NPCs normally standing outside of goop can be made to sink into it by having Mario bring the goop to them. They all have animations for sinking into goop, even if those would not normally be seen.

However, despite having an animation for sinking into goop, as seen above, Toadsworth is actually coded to be completely immune to goop. Unlike the majority of NPCs, no matter how much goop is around Toadsworth, he will never sink into it, making the above animation entirely unused.

Char: “I’m going to show up in a horse and confront Amuro in person, so we can monologue about our ideals and set the foundation for our dramatic final encounter, ohmigosh it’s going to be soooo cool!”

CCA Amuro, who has made it clear he’s Going To Fucking Kill Him if he sees Char: *Sees Char and tries to Fucking Kill Him* “I’m Going To Fucking Kill You.”
