Sharing what I grabbed and mentioned in my last post. $20 and allows me to prime with paint so no chalky rattle can in the humidity.

I got myself one of those cheap airbrushes from Amazon at around $20 that is USB-C rechargeable. I'd not want to use it for details but it serves as a decent primer sprayer as I'm in a place where rattle cans can only be used 1 month a year. #Warhammer #Warhammer40k #BlackTemplars #Hobby

Was out a week on a well earned vacation. I did get my #BlackTemplar Intercessors build, then sub-assembled for priming. Curious though, do you all drill boltguns? #Warhammer #Hobby #40k

Hell of a week, a chunk of my roof blew away in a storm! I've only managed to get the other leg on the Gouf done. How everyone else's week has been better :D #Plamo #Gundam #Gunpla.

Does anyone else get second leg syndrome? Building one thing then not wanting to build the same thing again. Well I do, so sometimes I build the waist before the second leg. #Plamo #Gundam #Gunpla

Don't worry I still have #Gunpla projects in the works. I started this bootleg Gouf Proto Mobility Demonstrator build. Digging the military-ish colors. #Plamo #Gundam

My first model completed in 7 years, it was a surprisingly nostalgic experience. Here's my #BlackTemplars Marshal in all his glory. #Warhammer #Hobby #Wargaming

SNAA Round Table Knights Tristan renders are up! Which means we will get to see the color version soon and that a release is just around the corner! #Plamo #Gunpla

Not a super interesting hobby update, I clipped the parts for a bunch of #BlackTemplar models into these compartment container - now they're ready to build. #Hobby #Warhammer40k #Tabletop #Wargaming

First pick up on journey back into tabletop wargaming, #BlackTemplars! Fmi started playing #Warhammer40k in 3rd Edition with the Templars on the cover of the rulebook and my dad got me the starter box set! So it seemed fitting. #Hobby

And the obligatory close-ups. #Plamo #Gundam #Gunpla

HG XFS Dark Mana - AKA Hi-Nu Influx. Straight built, metallic accents and G-Rework decals. Final build is not stable at all, it was a decent bootleg build but not cream of the crop. Ultimately it looks badass on my shelf. #Plamo #Gundam #Gunpla

And that's a wrap on the HG Gundam Hi-Nu Influx. It's not very stable on the stand but damn if it doesn't look cool. #Plamo #Gundam #Gunpla

@gunplagrownupswife.bsky.social coming in clutch with the #FathersDay gift. The MG Vidar! Thank you! #Plamo #Gunpla #Gundam

I'm a former social media life and different hobby fixation I was big into #Warhammer and #HorusHeresy i sold most of my collection when I moved to the US. But I still have my 3000pt HH Death Guard army back home. I'm re-igniting that passion. Can't promise I'll be this standard immediately.

My account has been built on Gunpla, hence the GunplaGrownUp but would it be a deal breaker if I shared other hobby content? I'm currently in the process of returning to 40k after a 7 year break.

Pretty small hobby update, I decaled the HG Hi-Nu Influxes shield. Last thing is the gun, shoulder cannons and propulsion tank sword things. #Plamo #Gundam #Gunpla

I think I liked BlueSky better before all the businesses and brands jumped on board.

If you remember I decided not to use the giant cannons on the Hi-Nu Influx. Despite giant shoulder cannons being my thing, they were just 2 pieces and the lack of color separation didn't look good. Anyway I got decals on the wings and fin funnels. #Plamo #Gundam #Gunpla

And arms decaled in the HG Hi-Nu Influx. Just accessories left now. #Plamo #Gundam #Gunpla

Very little hobby time this weekend, but I did manage to get the shoulders of the Hi-Nu Influx decaled up. Really excited to see this one finished. #Plamo #Gundam #Gunpla

This thing looks mean! And I love it. Torso and head decals done on the HG Hi-Nu Influx. #Plamo #Gundam #Gunpla

Waist unit and side skirts done. I'm glad I had those Grim Reaper decals as it's adding a lot of character and leaning into the idea of a 'Dark' Hi-Nu. #Gundam #Gunpla #Plamo

#gunpla #plamo folks, how big is too big for a backlog? I fear I might have hit it.

Decals on the legs done, I did end up supplementing the G-Rework decals with some Slave Wraith logos for the leg. I felt the skull leaned into the Gundam color palette quite well. #Gundam #Gunpla #Plamo

I'm using the #Grework RG Hi-Nu Gundam decals with this kit. It's not a 1:1 fit and the color/contrast is different so I'll have to rework placement a bit. #Gundam #Gunpla #Promo

Next project it's time to finish this project. I finished the build before taking a break but now it needs some decal love. Bootleg #Gundam Hi-Nu Influx. #Plamo #Gunpla

Manhunter 57 Ground Armour - straight built with panel lining and included decals! Fun build but with a weak joint where the torso meets the waist - I snapped mine. Still recommend though as it's a different build. #Gunpla #Plamo

This arrived in the mail today! Jumping right to the top of my build queue the Police Zaku from #Gundam #Gquuuuuux I know the designs are divisive but as an EVA fan this series is like a dream mash up. #Gunpla #Plamo

Got the core of the shell decaled up, slapped the head on and tonight I hope to assemble and photograph! #Plamo #Gunpla

Got a decent bit done on the Manhunter 57 Ground Armours decals. All that I have left to do now is the main bit of the shell. Bonus points if you get "37". #Gunpla #Plamo

Today's update is a little one, but I'm trying for consistency. Arms got decals, it's not obvious but the decals are more of a cream than a white. #Gunpla #Plamo

Ok I finally found motivation to crack out a decal set up and I want to FINISH finish the Manhunter 57 Ground Armour. #Plamo #Gunpla

And that's a wrap! JMS Gundam Schwarzette Recirculation Colors - is it as good as Bandai? Probably not, plastic is a little off. But in the world of bootlegs, it's pretty good and I appreciated the undergating. #Plamo #Gunpla

Pretty productive building session. I got the arms and backpack done. Only have the massive sword to do now. #Gunpla #Plamo

Head and torso done last night, one of the common issues with bootlegs is the stickers and clear plastic but both are pretty decent on this one. #Plamo #Gunpla

Slow and steady wins the race, I'm not looking to burnout again. Just the waist last done last night on the Gundam Schwarzette. #Gunpla #Plamo

Looks like this week we will see the next SNAA Round Table Knight "Tristan". Feels like the longest period yet between releases. But I'm not mad. #Gunpla #Plamo

Coming back from burnout, I started new projects for an easy "get going" jumping on point. But now I'm back in the grove I am confronted with a lot of half started projects I need to finish from the holiday season. #Gundam #Gunpla #Plamo

Time to get back to some actual #Gundam and #Gunpla. Any ideas what the kit is?

Barking Hound Dive Type from Canned Squad. Straight built with panel lining, color correction (metallic on front skirt and grey on chest panels). Love this series, such fun builds, more complex than they look and cute looking models at the end. #Plamo #Gunpla #Gundam

And last night I got the scuba backpack and harpoon weapons done and that's a wrap on the Barking Hound Dive Type from Canned Squad. #Plamo #Gunpla

Ooof a big L and a huge step back in the photo editing on BlueSky. Hope they improve or roll it back.

Canned Squad Barking Hound Dive Type continues with a very brief build session last night. Only got the head done, it's got a cool visor BUT underneath is a full Gundam style face. #Plamo #Gunpla

Continuing the WIP of the Canned Squad Barking Hound Dive Type. It's really cool to see how much of a difference part swaps can make to a kit. #Plamo #Gunpla

Back at with the Canned Squad kits again. This time I'm building the Barking Hound Dive Type. This continues to be a fun series and quick builds with entertaining complexity for their size. #Gunpla #Plamo

Put the Manhunter 57 Ground Armor into the photobooth. A fun build with a very delicate connection between the upper and lower torso. But a great palate cleaner if you're burned out on Gundam. I will decal it eventually but I don't have an easy set up for decals yet. #Gunpla #Plamo

Was so close to finishing the build of this, all that's left now is the shoulder cannons and full assembly but alas I ran out of time! The tail on this kit is seriously impressive as a feat of engineering, articulation is nuts! #Gundam #Gunpla #Plamo

First night working on the torso last night. I had a real issue with the upper to lower torso connections. The bars holding it in place snapped off so I had to glue it and reinforce it with chopped up sprue. Fun that the tortoise has a cockpit and you get 3 to choose from! #Gundam #Gunpla #Plamo

Last night's progress was on the head. I did add some chrome behind the eyes and on the camera looking thing on the forehead. As is standard with every opening on this kit. There's a hidden cannon in its mouth. So fun. #Gundam #Gunpla #Mecha #Plamo
