I just picked up my parcel from E2046 from the postoffice.It originally arrived on Thursday but i wasnt at home at that time.I couldnt pick it up on Friday due to a german holiday.Im finally able to hold it in my hands!
Pics and thoughts after the Jump
The Boys over at E2046 sure know how to pack their parcels that nothing breaks.The Kit arrived in perfect condition and was secured by several layers of bubblewrap.The first thing i noticed was the fact that Resin has quite a strong smell.Its nothing bad but youll have to get used to it.As far as my newbie eyes can judge the kit is of good quality with hardly any flash or seamlines.Im glad that i wont have to sand too much of it.Ill have to get out and get some of my missing tools and then ill start with this sucker.Ill be posting about my (failing?) progress in the near future.
Bubblewrap...
and even more bubblewrap
I didnt unpack the small parts yet im afarid to loose them

Naru from Love Hina I see. I would buy a garage kit but I would rather have someone else do it for me…paying for their services that is, locally. But even so, I hope for E2046′s Gathering, which, if they know how to pack, is even better, as their workmanship has been good so far from what I saw of reviews.

You know what would be great with your progress updates? If you could do a how-to series with this, like what kinds of junk you need etc.

I agree with super rats actually, seeing as I couldn’t put one of these together if my life depended on it >_>
Did it come with the paint as well?
This looks hard especially painting part. -_-
Wow transparent hair! This will be interesting~
Posting on your progress sounds like a good idea! I’ve never touched a garage kit before so it’s exciting to see how you will do it. I’m sure that with a bit of time and patience you can make it look good~
Qs last blog post..Interrupted
Lol, Damn Oktoberfest ! Parcel late ^^
@Panther
I dont think youll get the same satisfaction from a Kit if someone else is doing it for you as when you did build it yourself.Its a good alternative if youre no good at Kits tough.
What ive seen so far from gathering Kits is quite awesome.They cost a pretty penny but the work on them is topnotch.
@superrats
Yeah i might just do that.Others will be able to learn from my faults then.
@eternal
I thought exactly the same thing but m_candys videotutorials at youtube gave me the confidence to start my own.Well see how itll turn out ;-P
@optic
Nope no paint.Its all up to my judging and taste.Im going to stick to the original color scheme tough.Painting is going to be the hardest part indeed.Im gonna manage it somehow^^
@Q
Yeah the clear Resin is a nice part of the Figure.Ill have to look out for a clear brown paint now.Im going to try to post my progress with a lil how to soon.
Ill try my best to make her look good
@mikiwank
It wasnt the Oktoberfest this time
I belive the Oktoberfest lasts until October 5. ^^’

I’m planning on starting this too, I guess nothing beats a figure that’s made by yourself. Good luck^^
Btw, do you want to trade links for blogrolls? I’ve added you.

I wonder how it will tun out when it is finished.
I was quiet into military models a few years ago, but I guess this is completely different… Girls with camouflaged skin look strange^^
hikkys last blog post..A look on ze Fall-Anime V1.1
i forget if you already mentioned/i already asked… but do you already have the paints/air brush or whatever you use to paint her? and how much does that stuff cost? ^^; your kit adventure is making me want to try too
meronpans last blog post..I’m slow with reviews -_-
@mikwank
Errr…That could be…Im not from southern Germany so im not too muh into that stuff^^
@GNDynames
Yeah its much more satifying eh?
Ive added you too^^
@ron~
Thanks! Yeah itll eat away some of your time for sure
@hikky
I wonder myself too^^ You should paint mecha-musume girls than the camouflage befits the girl^^
@meronpan
Ill post more about it tomorrow!
I havent got the paint yet but my awesome brother bought me an airbrush as birthday gift.Its a cheap one but its enough to try it out.Ill work with canned air for now because Compressors are that expensive.
It would be great if id inspire you to try it too ^_^
I’m interested in seeing your progress, I’m not confident enough to try doing one of these yet, and I’m not sure if I’ll ever be.
Good luck , you’ll need it for sure ^^
Can’t wait to see your progress !
