3DS Gathering Today

There was a simple 3DS gathering today in front of Momotoys at the top floor of OneJaya. Those who own the previous generation DS were welcomed too. Unfortunately not many came so we mostly played some DS multiplayer games such as Mario Kart DS.

Next time we hope to make a more successful gathering where more people can join us and well, StreetPass with each other. At least the 3DS has dropped to RM6XX (USD170/15000Yen) now. :)

In the end only 2 3DS came to the gathering. I had a bit of fun with em' which sealed the deal for me to get one later this year as the price has dropped to my target price range. :D

Until the next post. Might take a while before I actually do that omake for Sinanju. ^^;

SD/BB Sinanju Review - Part 2

"From the start to the end, I'm always on a climax!" ~ Momotaros
This is a continuation from the first part here.

Getting slower and slower with the blog updates lately even though I still sit by my computer. You can thank a busier real life I'm having right now. ^^; Enough with the semantics, it's time for the next part of the SD/BB Sinanju review~

Read on for the rest of the review~

White backdrop => Canon IXUS 105
Black backdrop* => Samsung Galaxy S II
*Noise is more noticeable with a black backdrop.

Char-Bird

Did the photo-shoot today though the space is more limited (due to the orientation of the location) as I'm using my "new" table (which was FOC since it was almost thrown away) plus it being located closer to the window. The SGSII is a bit more sensitive to light than my camera but considering that I haven't charge my camera in a while... whoops.

At any rate, expect the second part of the review soon-ish. The omake, if I have enough time, will be in another post. I already have an idea for it at any rate. Gonna have to watch a certain OVA closely for some good references. :3

More info at my DeviantART.

After my last presentation yesterday, I am now more free once again. Gonna cool down first before I hit the books again to prepare for my single final paper next Thursday. I guess I'm gonna finish the BB Sinanju review real soon?

Until the next post~

SD/BB Sinanju Review - Part 1

Price: 1000 Yen

Squeezing in a bit of time on my blog for now even though I have many other things to complete. I guess you can say I'm feeling stressed out by the monochromatic amounts of assignments in front of my face and in need of more contrast back to my usual round of doings that is. :P

This kit is one of the harder kits to build (nicely) for every version there is of it. The larger MG should be easier to detail the gold trims at any rate and is the most detailed one overall. For the kits being reviewed this time, I can admit this is one of the harder challenges of marker detailing I've come across. Of course, the part separation is better than SDs of old but I digress.

At any rate, read on~

MS Explanation
MSN-06S Sinanju is a Mobile Suit built by Anaheim Electronics used by Neo Zeon by the pilot Full Frontal. Full Frontal, as far as the OVA has shown, looks and acts like Char Aznable... who is he really? He also fights the same way as Char inclusive of the trademark 3 times the speed and kicking Gundams.

Camera Test - Samsung Galaxy S II VS Canon IXUS 105 VS Samsung Champ


This is just a quick comparison I did between my available cameras (not counting my family members' phones of course).
My current main camera, Canon IXUS 105, has a bit of overexposure while my new phone, Samsung Galaxy S II, has a bit of underexposure. Both of them doesn't seem to produce very accurate colors and exposure but the SGSII feels sharper overall.

So, what do you think?

My Current Lockscreen and Wallpaper



Right now this is my lockscreen and wallpaper respectively for the Samsung Galaxy S II. Photo is taken by the Samsung Champ BTW; which is now my backup phone.

I'm also trying a free limited watermark app that looks to be doing its job. Luckily I normally resize my photos to 800px wide before uploading (which is the app's free limit).

This is just a random filler post nonethesless. Better get back to my assignments.
