It also seems like I won&#8217;t be using Flickr until I get a pro account as I&#8217;m still capped at 200, even after deleting many images. I&#8217;m also going to look for an amphibious Zeon mobile suit as the Ottawa river provides an already prepared scenic display for large and miniature scaled photoshoot range and figure\/model scale. I may try for an Acguy, Z&#8217;Gok, Z&#8217;Gok E, or a Hy-Gogg model kit for those. Also saw some Gundam markers which I hope I can still acquire as well. So much to do for the site &amp; blog yet not much to upload as I keep getting stuck in ideas for photoshoots heh.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll make a more serious Gundam article later down the road so for now thanks for viewing, visiting and hope to see you soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello again!
