The fourth episode of Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn, titled "At the Bottom of the Gravity Well", is scheduled for release on November 12th. What a depressingly long wait.
Look forward to the appearance of the revamped Ra Cailum, it's complement of high-performance Jestas, and, of course, Captain Bright himself.

After waiting almost a month since ordering the long-sought Gundam Color spraypaints, I contacted the seller yesterday to ascertain the fate of my precious parcel. Although the paints were shipped out fairly promptly after my order was received, apparently the Hong Kong Post only just yesterday passed the package on, and I may be waiting up to another couple weeks before it arrives here. It's been nearly three years, so waiting another week or two is no bother.
However, this does mean there will be something of a lull before things pick up again when I can get cracking on the Zaku cannon type. In the meantime, substantial posts may be a bit sparse, but have no fear. I'm still around.
And with that, the Unicorn Gundam is finished. A few new pictures in the gallery, with more to follow in the near future, along with my thoughts on the model. It's been fun, though my feelings about this kit are definitely mixed.
Meanwhile, those paints should be arriving sometime soon...
For good measure, Char gives the downed foe a wee punt. Look dead to you? Always make sure things are in order and well done before moving on.
Despite my habit of keeping myself secluded and wrapped in secrecy, I've joined Google+ and am enjoying this new-fangled social networking thing so far.
If you're already onboard the Google+ field trial, feel free to find me. I've created a Circle just for Gundam-related connections, and I'd be pleased to populate it with my dear readers. If you'd like an invite, I'm happy to oblige. Leave a comment here or get in touch and I'll get you the hookup.
Meanwhile, rest assured that I've got a picture ready for today, and your regularly scheduled installment of Char in the Office will be along later this evening.
Happy Friday.
During a busy day at work I neglected to take this week's Char in the office picture. To make it up to you, I've posted the new photos of the Unicorn Gundam's fancy schmancy hyper bazooka.
Only the awe-inspiring beam magnum remains before my first model in three years is completely complete. From there, onward and upward.
Happy Friday.
Not ready to post new pictures yet, but the Unicorn's hyper bazooka is finished. Quite possibly the largest mobile suit bazooka I've built yet (when extended), and certainly the fanciest in terms of mechanical movement.
In other news, still waiting for the much-sought paints to arrive...
The Red Comet finishes his kick, but keeps his eye and Zaku machinegun trained on the downed foe. Even if you're only practicing fighting off imagined opponents, your effort is a waste if you lose focus before seeing things through completely.
Happy Friday, and for my American readers, enjoy patriotically blowing stuff up on Monday.
Finally got around to adding the next few photos to the Unicorn's gallery, including a couple of the shield.
Will be visiting family for the 4th of July weekend, so still no weapons just yet. As I said before, gotta savor this one.
I'm pleased to announce that Zeonic Scanlations, where I moonlight as a disgrunted editor cum proofreader, has just made an astounding three-volume release of the ongoing project that led me to join the group, Char's Deleted Affair. Volumes 6, 7, and 8 are now available here.
Now if only this would get animated so Bandai would make an MG model of Char's fancy new Gelgoog...
