Mission Accomplished

Well I finally did it. It took About 4 long months, getting papercuts, staying up till 7 in the morning, and failing a math test but now I can finally say I succeed. The only bad news is that I can't start painting it until after the project which is like a month away. The reason being is that after working that hard on a model kit like that if I mess it up when I'm painting, I have messed it up completely so I'll wait. However I will do some panel lining with a marker because I have the ability and the time for it. One other thing though. I plan on changing part of it if it can because I just want to see if it will look better. Anyways the bottom line is that I reached my goal at a bare minimum. After I finish this model completely I will start building the other custom model that I wanted to build. Yeah there is more than one if you thought I was done.

1. This week I have accomplished the success of my goal by building the custom model.
2. Right now I'm just doing small detail work.
3. Next, I honestly don't know what to do next. I came this far and know what?

- I will upload a picture soon

Variations

After many trails and errors not to many things have worked. Its been more regression than progress. I have tried at least 3 different customization and none of them have worked. Also the plan I came up with won't be attempted. Even though I think it was figured out and correct, there isn't enough time to complete it. Getting the model kits takes up to 2 months just to for the package to arrive and by then the project will be over. With that being said instead of just giving into failure, I'm going to work with what I got. I have one last resort plan that has a better chance of success than the others.

1. Basically I accomplished the same thing as last week. Just making a new plan to enact. Hopefully it will work.

2. Right now I am working on preparing myself to work on the plan.

3. Next as long as my plan exceeds,I will quickly do detail work with panel lining, filing, and paint.

A place to start

Basically my plan is to get 2 model kits to actually finish the model but not create the final armaments and the extra details. The only problem is now how long will it be before I can get it. Usually I have to wait about a month to a month and a half to get a package from Japan (note: its where most of this stuff gets shipped from) Also another flaw in this is that I only know one of the kits I need to actually need to correct my problem. The other kit is still undecided on yet. With that being said the only thing I can do now is just keep searching and prepping myself for this even if I don't make it in time. After all I never said I was done after this project is over. Long story short, whatever move I make from this point will determine my outcome because I already messed up so making another mistake will just destroy me.
1. This week I have accomplished the outline of my plan. Not a major success but its a place to start.
2. Right now I am working on the last part of my plan.
3. My next move would have to be actually completing my plan.

How to deal with it

There is no easy way or other way in which I can say this. The bottom line is that I MESSED UP. This mistake more than likely just cost me the completion of the project by the deadline. In case you are wondering how I messed up it is extremely easy to sum it down in terms where everyone can understand while still keeping the context of itself. I made a wrong decision of choosing the wrong torso body for the gundam. To go into more detail, the torso of gundams/ gunpla is like the lifeline for it all. It connects everything together and allows for certain options to be implemented. So now how to go about it. Well I honestly don't have any idea except for going back to the drawing board and figuring our a plan. By the way, I've already started and almost came up with a last resort plan for this to work. If i can make this plan work it will hopefully correct my problem.  But for the time being, a friend asked me to work on a model kit for him called the Sword Impulse Gundam which I plan to start and finish tomorrow. After that well time will tell.

1. Honestly this week, I can't say that I have accomplished anything except for failing.

2. Right now I am working on a model kit for my friend who called on favor from me.

3. Next if I can(I cant stress that enough) come up with a plan and resolve my problems.

The gift of possibilities

Well its already March and I didn't reach the first goal. Its not that I could not make it, it was just that it was impossible to do in the first place. However I wasn't so far off though. My dad is a pilot and he fly's over the world mostly in Europe but he does rotations around Asia as well. On one of his rotations he went a model store in Hong Kong and got me the last model kit I needed. So now he comes back today and he has the last kit I need and I honestly can't wait. I can finish the general assembly of this model kit by the end of the week and even start the detail work. Also I can make the armaments to finish it. Even the booster concept can be started. Also a note, Each model kit that I receive won't be taken to full completion because it takes to much time to finish it entirely according to the instructions. So I plan on taking the parts and frames that I need from each kit in order to cut down on the time.

1. Also I have accomplished finding the answer I was looking for and what direction I should head in.

2. I am not currently working on anything but I am going to start again this weekend.

3. The next thing I plan on working on is the Exia Dark Matter MG and finishing the general assembly of the custom model.

-Yes I will upload a picture of them both.

Standstill

For the past week i worked on a new model that i received the week before. Its name is the full armor Unicorn Gundam. (The term unicorn is bee coming a bit repetitive for my taste but it wont bother me too much) Actually I have started working on the custom model and was able to put together the legs, waist, torso, and the head. I may or may not upload a picture even though I still have the other one to upload but for some reason I am having some trouble with uploading it. (The negative color scheme pictures) Moving on here comes the standstill point. I am what could be considered a crossroad where i can go down a few paths. Honest that's the only problem that I am having right now. I am uncertain on what direction I should move towards. Well since I can't think of the answer, I'll find it where everything begins. Tomorrow instead of building a model in class for 20 time, I will take the chance to search for an answer by just watching Gundam. As efficient as that sounds I have faith that if I look where I began, something lies there waiting for me to discover it.

1. This week I have accomplished the start of building my custom model.
2. Currently I am working on the Full Armor Unicorn Gundam.
3. Next I plan to find my answer i figure out what direction I should head in next.
