Battle Of The Toys 2016




One of the perks of being a modeler is being able to visit exhibitions, competitions and numerous events related to Gunpal and toys. And this is one of them. As Hobby Art gang was invited to showcase their range of E7 Model Paint at the event, I asked to tag along for the show.

Petit'G Guy Group Build by HAW


Another successful group build! Yes! Had lots of fun today. I always like these meets as I get to mingle with the local lads and get to know them better. And sometimes, I find some "gems" as well! Folks with good potential :)

Poisonmonkeys Jesta Group Build 2014


So Waylander and Toymaker have finally decide to organize a Group Build. And we named it "Poisonmonkeys Jesta Group Build".

The first question that comes to your mind is probably, "Why Jesta?" And I say, "Why not?" We all know Jestas are no frills, simple but effective units on the battlefield. But they are still, cannon fodders. 

So, what if I give you the opportunity to transform the humble Jesta into a hero suit? Or turn it into the Antagonist, like Tallgeese, will you take it? 

Basically, we want participants to go crazy for this group build. We want souped-up units. We want radical concepts. We want outrageous builds. So how is one going to approach this? Simple, think out of the box. Throw away the original concepts and perceptions of the Jesta and revolutionize it. That's the plan. 

So yesterday was the meet. And was I disappointed? I got to be kidding if  I say yes. Because, it's by far the most successful and exciting Group Build we organized. The lads were fantastic, lending their full support in the form of fantastic builds. Well, we get to that later...

It's all in the displays...

Have you ever wondered about why you like going to a model shop even if you have nothing really to buy? Whether it's HAG, HAW or somewhere in JapanHongkongMalaysiaPhilippines, whatever. Whether you realise it or not, one big reason is probably the display. Think about it. It has always been about the display, from the day you fell in love with the hobby.

HMM Iron King (Warmachine Version)



The craze started in November last year. While seeking to take a break from Gunpla, I chanced upon Kel Vinci's Berserk Fuhrer and the Zoids "bug" caught me instantly. Then I started hunting for these Highend Master Models or in short "HMM" Zoids. And before long, my collection grew to the point I had to clear out some of my Gundam stashes.

2013 Gunplanatic Group Build at Hobby Art @ Work

Another busy day but fulfilling day for me! I hereby declared Gunplanatics 2013 Mecha Buildgroup a success! These young lads from Gunplanatics had organised probably their first official GB and I must say the response is pretty good. While participants posted their entries online, we managed to arrange for their works to be displayed a Hobby Art @ Work for today.

Zoids Group Build 2013


Something for the lads here. I noticed there is a spike in the interest for Zoids recently and after seeing all the hoots at local forums and even my FB, I think it's about time to start working on your backlog (that applies to me and Waylander as well). 

So, we're going to have a Zoids Group Build. Rules you say? Simple, Just Zoids, Zoids, Zoids and more Zoids, you can throw in extra elements like other mechas whatever, sky's the limit as long as the main kit is Zoids. Any Zoids kit is welcomed. Deadline is 4 May 2013 and I have sought the permission of  the bosses at Hobby Art @ Work to use their place for the meet. So come 4 May, bring your completed kit to share and learn! Who knows? I may throw in some prizes as well! ;) 

If you are keen and can make yourself available on  4 MAy 2013, indicate your interest here: 


See you guys soon!

Waveriders Group Build by HAW

Following the successes of the first 2 group builds, Hobby Art @ Work continue the momentum by organizing the latest Group Build, Waveriders. We wanted to give the lads something different and WR seems to be a great idea. And it's a break from two legged Gunplas I guess. 

Well, here are the pictures of our local young modelers!

Gundam Age-1 Zethus



Most people I met said Age-1 Normal is a boring kit. Well, that is precisely what I want to demonstrate that with a attractive colour scheme and appropriate kit bashing , you still can produce decent work. So when Hobby Art Gallery decided to use MG Gundam Age-1 for their latest group build, I bought my first Age-1 from them. 

I wanted this to be a fast and simple build so that I can resume work on my World Cup entry. Waylander  and me decided  to use the extra weapon packs for the Strike Gundam and integrate them to the Age. We did some simple modifications and gave each Age a pastel colour scheme and you got a attractive combination. 




So I managed to finished this within two weeks and Waylander completed his in a even shorter time span. Well, enough said, I let the pictures do the talking. 
























Zethus & Ampion














Well, with this one all done up, time to concentrate on Gunpla Builders World Cup!!!

Gundam Age-1 Group Build @ 1 May 2012




The first thing I heard when I woke up this morning was my son complaining about rashes. A trip to the doctor revealed that he had chicken pox. Oh well, that was totally unexpected and three hours spent at the hospital was draining and demoralizing. But I immediately perked up the moment I dropped them off at home and headed straight for Hobby Art @ Work. 

You see we are having the Gundam Age-1 Normal Group Build there. And the entries by the local lads were anything but normal. We even have some overseas friends who took part in the build. Very encouraging indeed. 

Rather than doing another post, I will link you to Waylander's coverage of the event. 

But before that, I want to thank all the staff at HAG/HAW for making this come true. And  most importantly, to all the participants who took part in this build. You guys should give yourselves a pat on the back. Congrats to all the winners and I will see you all next build group! 

So here is Waylander's post on, "Age-1 Group Build Summary"
