Recently,

I’ve been finding myself spending most of my time(and money) on building Gunpla (Gundam plastic model building). There’s something so satisfying about piecing together these models. It’s a bit like cosplay in that sense just as I bring characters to life through costume, building Gundams lets me bring this little robot into life with my own hands.

As I dive deeper into Gunpla, I have been trying kits from across the Gundam universe, exploring the different designs, scales, and skill levels they offer. Each model kit has its own style, story, and challenge, from the classic RX-78 to the sleek and complex Strike Freedom. I love how each kit feels unique, I can look at each model I build and remember the process I took and what I was doing while I was building it. Whether it’s the Audio book i was listening to while making a Zaku or the phone calls I had with my friends while making a Gundam Wing model.
