Greetings Chiisa,

First off, let me be one of the few actually from uts to welcome you to the forums! Cheesy

In terms of anime@uts's experience as a whole in mecha building we do not do it in such a grand scale as to UNSW, however we do have a few members who are like yourself take up the hobby in quite a strong effort as well as maintaining it as a common event in our semester's activities. (if you see art jam and im attending you are likely to get mecha building XD)

In terms of kit building and models in general, i'm quite a novice in this regards however i have just started collecting figures themselves as a hobby and looking towards possibly making Gundams/Macross/Eva (the last 2 more particular). In past art jams however i have gone with other people to go buy models to try to build. 

In a months time we are planning to hold a chillout event (relevant post/details to come) were we will be making mecha. Which you are more than welcome to attend and meet everyone!

My next project in terms of this is to probly buy ozma's VF though i am still debating on a model kit. that is if i want the super or not, if you have any thoughts to this i would appreciate it!!

In that first picture, the one from art jam we got from hobby dream which was in the capitol building. however it was slightly pricy. which is why i now buy things online at the hlj websites i posted at the end of my post. (especially since the exchange rate is good atm)

If you like armored kit, better take the super, its armor gives more military look rather than the standard. Personally i prefer to have the super but yeah, the price is totally overboard... >.<

Hi Anime UTS

If you guys are thinking of running a Gunpla event in the future,gimme a holler. i'd be glad to help out with some airbrushing demos,gunpla construction etc... I've done 2 Gunpla workshops with the guys @ UNSW and they have been great days.

Building a msn-04 sazabi atm. Have several other gundams before that. Mix of 1/144 HGs, 1/100 HGs, and MGs. Sazabi's my first time painting (with a spray can).

Your stuff's nicely built. Should consider putting the decals on for more awesomeness.
