Thank you for introducing! Let's take a video together someday!
I hope there's some translation of this book released someday
I found it interesting that you reviewed her book. I follow her channel as I live in Japan and have learned a lot concerning the different paints / tools that are available here and just seeing the common items she may use while working, gives me ideas to look for those items at Daiso or other shops. Very helpful channel.
I've been following her channel for the last 2 years now. She's really good, even though I can't understand most of it. I find she settles down after the first minute or two.
Regarding the gel balls: the real benefit there is that you can very easily get a suspended effect, like the kit is in stasis or hibernation mode. I've seen a REALLY cool diorama with the Woundwort suspended in these gel balls. It's definitely something I never would have thought of.
The glass ball things are basically a gummy like material and when water is poured into a container with them they turn invisible, you can make stuff you put it in look like it’s floating
Zak’s bizarro world twin is still running his channel! Free ZakuAurelius!
The DIY sanding sticks/boards is something I was really surprised more folks do not do themselves.
Get 200-3000 grit 3M (dry and wet. I personally only mainly use 400, 800, 1500, and 3,000 paper) at Lowes or Home Depot. Total cost for decent paper was under $15. Then I get 2 types of popsicle sticks from the dollar store or craft spot; 1 and 2 cm. A big bag of each. Another few dollars. Last part is the double sided tape. I go a bit overboard, but all you really need is a foam roll of either 1cm and/or 2cm. The 2cm is nice because you can put 2, 1cm sticks next to each other on the tape at the same time, pull the other side of the tape, and attach the paper[s] you will be making. For a stiffer 'file', I use double sided tape, the same way, but this time without the foam. Before you know it, you're attaching sandpaper to everything. Next, I will be modifying my Great Aunt's letter opener to accept and replace the grit, easily. It all has a use, even if just the once. Total cost for me was about $30-$40 USD, but half of that will get anyone on the way to spending that extra hour at night getting the one plane 'just right'... I recently invested in a nice compass with minute adjustments and decent graphite. That hour is now a 2 day project lol.
Wow I think I wrote too much, but I very much enjoy this plastic model guide. It appear very approachable, with decent descriptions, a video link to follow along with, and I hope these types of guides and videos will bring more people to scale model building. It's not all robots and changeable anime chests (I do have a Greifen FRG, but my mother bought it for me. She was excited because it's the pink and purple colorway. But she also bought me playboys before I was 12 lo.. Fuckin love that woman).
Alright, that is enough, for now...
My dude Zakuman already in the spooktober vibes
He’s spooken us with no glasses
ahhh......another reason to see this review
I see that Asra Tamamonomae in the background
👀👀👀👀👀
love the cute designs here
thx for the review
Most kits besides bandai kits come with some waterslides so it makes sense for it to be a beginner thing imo that way a beginner knows how to actually use everything in the kit
Good point!
Even after a couple of videos, I'm still not used to you not wearing glasses.
speaking of mechanical pencils there are even Gundam branded ones in the same line as Gundam Markers.
Great review! Say, don't Japanese books usually read from back to front opposite from books in the west?
that's usauly for ToptoBottom writing styles
Yes traditionally and most/all manga and novels. But books like these, even though they’re totally in Japanese, seem to be made with an international audience in mind~ if only slightly
a book is the last thing i would expect you to review lol
I’ve reviewed a bunch
The good thing about books like this is that you never know what you’ll find! There’s always something new to learn.
Hi Neon
Hey zaku, i was wondering what you use as your background. I think it looks kinda cool :)
Box covers painted lightly with some gesso
@@ZakuAurelius thanks for the reply, if i ever need to get rid of my old boxes ill take this as some inspiration :D
lol this video is giving me some strong la beast vibes
Yeah I quite like watching Kino Kousaka's stuff despite her high pitched voice
strangely that's quite common with the japanese language
Maybe setting playback to .75? 😆
Where is the actual link to her book…..?
I got it from japan, we won’t be carrying this book at USAGS
I was like, why is Zack talking so slow and pausing so often?
Then I realized I had playback on 75%.
First: wondering how it go like that
Second: that’s sounds like early Zack videos
@@scarletrain6757 I was watching something prior to this that was sped up so had to slow it down to really take it in, but forgot to put the settings back to normal lol.
Not related to the video, but have you seen/heard the news about Converge?
No I haven’t!
@@ZakuAurelius a new single came out in advance of a new album coming, and the girl from the cover of the Jane Doe album has been... discovered or revealed, idk, she announced it was her picture that they used.
Wait a minute is GBF's China Kousaka inspired by her?
