First meeting at The Davis Cards and Games store! Nice people there; a cool place to visit if anyone is interested in table-top and card games.

So we had a semi-large table setup at the back of the store. We tried to make a nice debut display to catch the attention of some regulars at the store, being that we plan to continue meeting at this new location.

It's next to Ken's Bike and Ski! (If you know me I love cycling gear!) And its got bountiful parking spots for hauling large kits in case someone wants to show off a, you know, PG. Hah!

And here was our display! Something caught Quinn's attention. I also brought a large box of chocolate cookies for any of those who come by to endeavor.

Awesome kit; the MG Turn X! Cool that George brought it over for the display! That clear orange effect part is really nice looking.

And of course with the Turn X, the Turn A needs to be there too! This one has the moonlight butterfly effect parts and twin Gundam Hammers! THose panel lines make it look so good! Downside was that the peg that holds the kit to the butterfly effect parts and the action base was not very strong and loved to fall off. Still looked cool and impressive on display!

Khanh, our public relations officer actually works at Davis Cards and Games! So, of course he was there in the meeting! He brought a cool fully painted Crossbone HG! Looks like it is fully equipped with the full cloth as well.

The thick paint, although tickles George (since the paint was his), does make it look like it came out of a drawing or manga. Especially with the thick panel lines on a small HG sized kit. Very cool!

There is an un-built MG Crossbone X3 that George also brought in case anyone wanted to work on it. (No one did, but that's okay)

Khanh also showed off some of his latest painted table-top figures.

Unfortunately, I am not familiar enough with these figures to give them a description any better than, "cool paint work!" I always enjoy the grass in these mini dioramas.

So this weeks kit is Jeffery's Gundam Barbatos Lupus from the currently airing Iron Blooded Orphans anime. I did a laughable amount of work on the shoulders and legs and to work on my Barbatos 6th form. Quinn, Jeffery, and George tried their best to finish as much as they could.

Some of the Lupus armor parts, we slapped on the 6th form frame for fun.

Here is a picture of my Barbatos 6th form work in progress. I did some cutting to reshape some of the armor.

Quinn's hand slipped and he dropped his knife on the table. It landed like this. Practice knife safety everyone!

So this was unfortunately (or fortunately) all that was finished in the meeting's time. Probably because I wasn't helping. But hey, the frame is done! And this means we are guaranteed more work for next weeks meeting!

Here is another picture of the Lupus with the 6th form next to it. Notice the 6th form lost its white face piece. Yeah, it fell off somewhere and I lost it... sigh... I guess I'll just have to improvise.

And that's the meeting! Cool location; 10/10 would come again for a meeting!

Shout outs to Melissa for allowing us to meet here!

Hope to see you guys next week!
