because valentines is probably an appropriate time for it i guess

the jeturk boys were probably some of the more simple gunplas to build, which feels appropriate for guel at least he's a simple lad. i honestly like him more as a character than his mech, like the dilanza is cool and all but i just love the universe's most kicked dog lol.

meanwhile i feel the opposite for the schwarzette. why'd they make it so cool only for it to show up in the very last episode smh

and i'm finally upgrading to gundams from shows i haven't seen. unfortunately i have already heard that gundam seed is hot garbage, but i wanted to try another master grade and i have an affection for designs that are based around A Big Fuck Off Gun, so the buster gundam attracted me. it's a cool robot but it has a lot of parts that feel like, very loosely attached compared to the gwitch mechs i've made? and i have no idea if thats a master grade thing or just an older gunpla thing. every time i try to move it i worry about snapping something off (which also made getting it holding the gun properly much harder like he's not actually holding the second handle in the picture there lol)

i dunno what i'll make next. there's a few more gwitch ones to make, but once those are out i'll have to look into more things from shows i aint watched yet. maybe i'll watched iron blood orphans before buying more gunpla? i've been meaning to check it out since i know a few people who swear by that show.

yeah, give it a shot! i wouldn't put it in the life-changing category personally, but i'm glad it exists & to have watched it. it has a lot of interesting, relevant ideas while breaking boundaries for gundam/anime. there's wow! cool robots/sci-fi, cute gay girls, evil women. no previous gundam experience necessary!
