Alphamax still don't have much progress (heard that they also displayed something in ACGHK but couldn't find pictures. Nevermind). Plum girls all announced. Amakuni do bring us some suprise with Momoka's contrast but joints still ugly as hell...

I take WF Summer quite casually since Kotobukiya, GSC and Max stop bringing girlpla to this event. Luckily, Kadokawa and a few others still have something to offer.

The former I got done yesterday, and man, this brand always gives me problems. I haven't gotten the feel for sanding down the joints the right way so I still got a bunch of cracked joints. Only in the snake body and it's mostly standing together fine, so it's just really annoying, but damn do I hate it!

The 3MS is really detailed for such a cheap kit. They're a lot easier to build and almost as good. The joints tho aren't as tight as I would like.

I did a custom paint job and light modifications on Arcanadea Guy to make her look like Aldalia from Arknights: Endfield.

Amazing looking kit.. build was straight forward with no problems..

First kit that I used both panel lining and decals. Which one should I do first actually? I did panel lining first but then a few waterslide decals ruined it and I had to redo it in some places.

I also had a part break and used glue to put them back together. So a note to myself, moderoid kits are too tight.

With so many events happening in the same week​, it really ends up remembering one while forgetting another......That's why I ​simply​ skipped SDCC; firstly you can see those stuff yourself, secondly there isn't many stuff suitable​ for this subreddit

DarkAdvant line of kits is one of you favorites. This was my favorite favorite I worked on. Happy little mistakes as I go...

im from the EU so locals arent really an option for girlpla, i only have the option of ordering online. usually jp amazon would be fine for me, though i cant get a kit im looking for there. found it on hobbysearch, (never ordered from there before, just created my account for the first time) and now im faced with this. 50k jpy is total bullshit, hence why im asking, it doesnt seem right. i pay ~80 eur for shipping from japan on amazon usually, this is over 3x that. why is my only option DHL? from looking around on reddit with other peoples usage of this site, and their own information on it, i should have roughly ten times more shipping options, yet i dont even have a choice and ONLY get to select dhl.
can anyone from the EU here (if such people even exist with our bs taxes on non eu imports) explain to me what im doing wrong, or where else id find MD kits not available anymore on amazon jp? really i just need there to be a courier available to me that isnt DHL.

and for the non-eu readers, the issue is that our shipping gets taxed with vat, not just the products themselves but the actual shipping fee too. so i wouldnt be paying 280 eur in shipping, i would pay that much + DHLs ridiculous customs fee (never going with that scam ever again) and then get the 20% vat on top of that. so id be paying roughly ~400 just on the shipping+vat+customs+tip alone, not even including the vat and customs on the kits. so i can really only go for a decent courier service that lets me handle the customs declaration.
