Sept 9, 1997: Star Wars: The Phantom Menace: Neeson, McGregor, and Park filming scenes 157 and 160—the fight between the Jedi and Darth Maul in the Theed central hangar—with some of the 13 setups shot at 22 frames per second so that the action is quicker when projected at 24 fps.

Did the two "Gundam" robots that were launched to the ISS in 2020 for the Olympics get sent into space or are they still on board somewhere? #asknasa

At last got the top grey colour done on the massive 1/35 Bronco Coastal Submarine. Time to let it all dry, then another weekend start on the darker grey. #Bronco #coastalsubmarine #135scale

Now the legs and lower torso are together the PG RX-78 gp01 is beginning to show it's size. Had time to do some prep painting on the core fighter that's going onto the actual unit. #bandai #rx78gundam #rx78 #gundam

We can recommend @SacredSport too, I treated @modellingmartyn to some #Wellington Single Origin ground coffee for his birthday. Tubbs & Elvis certainly go that extra mile for their customers. Top class service. Check out their website..

At last you have it. It's for keeping us geeks in the know, and the passion you put into your work.
Massive thanks to @modellingmartyn, your gift has finally made its way to me from @BBCClick HQ! What a lovely thought, thank you.

Base finished and the final parts fitted on the rear. Tidied up the 5V leads coming out of the rear as not using batteries. #btf #gatx105 #strikegundam #gundambust #gundam
Unicorn horns fitted to the head, soldered to the upper section and now in place. Just got the base to paint. #btf #gatx105 #strikegundam #gundambust #gundam
What is it they say "best foot forward", so started on the feet first on the PG GP01/fb Gundam. #gundam #gp01fb #pggundam
Now the gantry looks more like it belongs, and part of the whole structure. Just the lights to do next. #gundam #pggundam #diorama
Most of the leg done on the Banshee Norn. As it's going on the diorama for a while will leave the other leg without some outer armour. #gundam #pggundam #bansheenorn
Back on modelling this weekend, and got a bit more done on the Banshee Norn legs, and some more sprues now empty. #bansheenorn #pggundam #gundam
Exaggerated the articulation, but all these parts just so the knee armour moves took a bit of time. #gundam #pggundam #bansheenorn
Got the legs started and happy with it so far, but also seeing what parts I will not need to paint when I build the PG RX-0 Unicorn sometime. #gundam #pggundam #bansheenorn
That's the feet done bar some fragile pieces I'll fit nearer the end. A lot of parts especially in the ankle joints. #gundam #bansheenorn #pggundam #unicorngundam
