Good news: the spring turned up. It had somehow bounced itself into the pocket of the shorts I was wearing! Better news: Turns out that's NOT a set-screw that's missing; it's just a hunk of metal that keeps the nippers from opening too wide. Easily replaced it with a piece of a paper clip!

Tragedy struck while putting Micolulu together: dropped my GodHand nippers onto the floor, and the spring shot off to God only knows where. Which revealed a second, more serious issue: the adjustment screw has also gone missing. All my building rooms are carpeted, so they're gone for good!

Anyone who knows me could tell you that the leggings were never really in question. 😂 Full photos and post-mortem to come; kind of a busy week! #Kotobukiya #MegamiDevice #PuniMofu #Lang #girlpla #plamo

Kotobukiya's Megami Device PUNI⭐MOFU Gin Lang, assembled and custom-painted, in her Normal Mode. She's wearing a sparkly silver top and shorts and a pair of dark gray/black latex leggings, with translucent yellow/orange accents around her thighs and wrists.

(Gonna paint Lang, too, but hers is gonna be much more straightforward. Mostly just wanna get rid of the black nub marks on her silver parts; no way to sand THOSE out to where they blend seamlessly. Biggest question is whether I wanna give her some leggings, similar to how I did Mao & Tu...)

I put the chronological list in the alt comment together by looking through the media tabs on both this and my main account, which reminded me that these accessories were the first thing I ever painted! Probably a good time to pick up the custom they're intended for!

The pistol, broom & sword accessories for Kotobukiya's Hoihoi-san New Edition kit, along with the assembly manual. I painted these back in February/March, as I recall. The original plan was to do the most predictable custom paint job to the fully-assembled kit, but these were *just* enough trouble to encourage me to learn basically ANYTHING about using an airbrush before I tried taking on a full model. I'm muchore confident in my ability now, though; let's see if it's justified!

Phew, what a ridiculous week at work! But it's over now and I have a three-day weekend to play with! 🧵 Speaking of playtime, let's do a rundown of Kuro Mao! 🧵 (Commentary in the alt text, as always!) #Kotobukiya #MegamiDevice #PuniMofu #Mao #girlpla #plamo

Took longer than I wanted to get around to, but I finally got Mao painted! Gotta put off the full rundown for another night, but she came out lookin' pretty good, I think! #Kotobukiya #MegamiDevice #PuniMofu #Mao #girlpla #plamo

Kotobukiya Megami Device PUNI⭐MOFU Kuro Mao, painted and reassembled! I've added a sheer effect to her bodysuit and gave her matching sheer tights reminiscent of the thigh-highs her regular edition comes with, and I've also added a couple bright blue streaks to her blonde hair to match one of BLADE's Kiro Mao illustrations.

I picked up the ReACT-A Lumitea kit from a friend who was thinning her backlog, then grabbed a Velretta to go with it, and I have eventually gotta muster the courage to put together *either* of them 'cause they look amazing

Cleaning day! Gave the booth a thorough wipe down, changed the filter, thinned those fluorescent paints next to the towel, threw all the pieces for Kuro Mao into the ultrasonic cleaner that just arrived today, and while that was buzzin' I deep-cleaned and soaped my acrylic & enamel brushes!

The modeling desk. The spray booth has been wiped down and has a fresh filter. A green-and-white kitchen towel takes up most of the work surface, on which are all the disassembled pieces of the PUNI⭐MOFU Kuro Mao model kit I'm gonna start painting this weekend. To the right is the ultrasonic cleaner the pieces just came out of. On the pullout shelf on the lower right of the picture are dishes of mineral spirits, rubbing alcohol and water, next to six paintbrushes (three Kolinsky sable brushes I use for acrylics, and a couple GSI Creos & a GodHand brush I use for enamels) that have just been deep-cleaned and conditioned with a dish of B&J brush cleaner & conditioner.
