I got into building garage kits about 8 years ago.  I have always built plastic models since I was a kid.  I was starting to get board with tanks and airplanes and stumbled into the resin figure kits.  I really like the increased detail and the painting challenge makes it a lot of fun.

Note:I wanted to get these pics up, but a lot of them need retaken, I am just learning how to take these types of pics.

Red Sonja

I found this kit at wonderfest 2009 from another attendee.

 

Karnstien Bust

This is from SolarWind Studios.  The released this kit a couple years ago but it went out of production.  The just brought it back into production last xmas.

Lucky Star

This is a kit based on the end of the Alien movie.  I picked this kit up from X-O Facto at wonderfest 2008.

 

Winged Karnstien

The is from Solar Wind Studios.  I build this for Wonderfest 2008 and took a bronze.

Thor

This is Thor from Sam Greenwell studios.  This was a great fun kit.  I took some liberties with the hair color.  I kind of painted him more like a greek god instead of a Nortic god.  I bought this kit at Wonderfest 2008

The Grinch

This is a very simple kit I bought at Wonderfest 2007 from Jimmy Flintstone.  I is just a bust, so I built a custom base that looks like a bag.  This kit was entered in the humor category at Wonderfest 2007 and took a silver.

 

Hellboy

This was a fun little kit that I bought at wonderfest 2007 also from Jimmy Flintstone.  It's just an out of the box build.  It was never built for compentition, but I took it to wonderfest 2008 and took a Merit.

 

Tandem Twin

I am still trying to figure out what makes it tandem twin, I would have to say side by side twin.  Anyway, I got a little carried away with purple.

Worrywart

This is an original kit from cygenus studios.  The base is scratch built form balsa foam.  I entered it in the model contest at Wonderfest 2007 and took a bronze.  The last pic is worrywart with a very small percentage of the stiff competition that I competed against.

 

Akari Kanzaki

This is the main Character from the anime "Battle Athletes"

 

Belldandy

This is a resin model of the anime character Belldandy from the anime "Oh My Goddess"  I combined the resin kit with a styrene motorcycle kit from tamaya.

 

Hulk

This is a styrene kit from Toybiz.  It was a very low quality kit with very bad joint gaps, but with a little work it cleaned up very nicely.

 

Lexa

This is a kit from Solarwind productions.  It is a very nicely sculpted kit that went together very well.
