The PLAMAX Dog doesn’t come with a seated pilot, so I made a couple of copies from some old GK figures I’ve had for about 30 years. They still need a little tweaking on the footboards, but they turned out pretty good. The sculpting on WAVE’s latest plastic pilot figures is not very good.
Just reading around by adding gashapon backpack to the dog and painted Chirico.
Spent the weekend and fixed all the missing parts from 1/18 Takara Dog, I gave it an extra option on the hand. I also casted the missing handguns and added an holster. Now I need to paint it and custom made some decals.
I'm currently repairing a 1/18 Takara Strike Dog, does anyone ever disassemble the arm?

I picked up a used PLAMAX Strike Dog that had already been painted, so I stripped it back to bare plastic and applied a fresh coat of primer. Since my first Strike Dog was built with the standard hook attachment, I decided to cast a duplicate of the left hand for this build to give it a different configuration. I also added a pilot figure, as the kit didn't include one, I think it came out alright.
My 1/24 Chirico Couvie gashapon from about 20 years ago started sweating that nasty oily residue old plastics sometimes get. Cleaned it up and got repainted it. The gun is from the old Takara model kit.

Last photo is the original factory gashapon paint.
Hi, I just digged this out from my stash. It's from the 90s I bought at Volks in Tokyo. Mobile phone weren't common yet so I didn't take any photos. Big regret! Anyway, this is 1/24 Shadow Flare with huge chunks of reins. It cost 28000 yen at the time. Expensive!!
My wife just painted the 1/35 crew for #312 Eastern Front PzAbt 505. The figures are from Royal Models and modified Alpine.
I went to the Votoms show in Tokyo last year. Here are part of 20 photos I took. I hope you enjoy.
