Can't believe this was 25 years ago.
Crummy pic. Hand painted over rattlecan primer. The doors no longer move because 20 year old me had no idea what he was doing and didn't sand before laying on layers of paint.
I still have this packed away somewhere. Maybe one day I'll dig the old stuff back out and see if I can get some decent photos.

Done many moons ago by my spouse and I, just after she got into Gundam. The Tri-Star kit was where I first fell in love with Molotow chrome. Unfortunately, I've found that they do not store well. At ~$10 a pen, that's a bummer.

Wait, I thought their job was to revoke approval for safe drugs that the snowflakes don't like?

I'm what you might call a G3 simp. I cannot express how annoying it is that Bandai changes the color scheme with every release. And lately the main color has been basically white... which goes against G3 being "the gray one." The original MG comes closest to the canon color scheme IMO.
And yes, I know I can paint. I would love to have a cohesive, consistent lineup of gray/purple Amuro alt suits (G3, Zeta III, Hi Nu, maybe Unicorn because it would look rad). It's just not on my radar any time soon.

Resource hidden where we can't see it? Best to assume it's infinite and there will be no repercussions.
Yeah, blaming this on Nintendo is just rage bait.
So, par for the course.

Straight built with some minor touch up work and bog-standard panel lining. Old, old kit that I completed a few years ago. Really took me back.

Live with underlying existential dread for decades. Watch as "doing what you love" becomes "hating what you used to love because you're forced to do it so that there's enough numbers in the computer to prove that you're worthy of continued existence." Contemplate the pointlessness of it all on a daily basis. Be reminded that your feelings are invalid because "other people have it worse" every time the topic comes up. Nod listlessly as "successful" people tout their own hard work while ignoring any factor luck and privilege played, then tune out when they shift into the dissonant duet of "I succeeded because I am exceptional" and "anyone can do the same if they just work harder."
Wake up the next morning and realize there's roughly 30 more years of this, barring a massive coronary or aneurism or something.
My thought process went a little something like:
Holy shit that's a sweet photo, is it shopped? AI?
Omg those dresses are gonna be covered in dog hair.
Why would it be illegal to use a dog as a flower girl?
...OH! 🤦♂️
He tried blackjack already. Poor guy couldn't figure out how to keep multiple casinos, an industry known for basically printing money, afloat. Truly baffling considering what a genius businessman he is.
That right there is a union man. He transports strikebreakers to strange new walls.
