A quick look at a Daban 1/144 Jegan ECOAS and Base Jabber Type 89
I thought it’d be interesting to take a look at some bootleg kits from Daban. They go for a fraction of the price of the originals so are they worth the savings? None withstanding the ethics of getting bootlegs, it’s a mixed bag. They look OK from a distance but up close, flaws do appear …...

WIP : 1/144 HGUC MSN-003 Nemo

WIP : 1/144 HGUC MSN-003 Nemo
So while waiting for the paint on the other projects to cure, I decided I needed to finish up this partially painted kit.
