Basement Cinema: Bulb Change
Two updates in one week, things are moving along quicker than ever! The new bulb arrived really quickly (thanks to CP Lighting) so I fitted it straight away to see if there was a difference.
Happy (almost)1 Month Emma!
Tomorrow Emma and I will have been Married one whole month!(where does time go?!) Seeing as Sunday night is a terrible night to celebrate anything thanks to work the next day I surprised her with a tasty meal of Renkon no Kinpira followed by Tori no Karaage which seems to have gone down rather well!

First Impressions: HG 1/144 RX-78-2 Gundam Ver 30th
It feels like forever since my last HGUC build, and what better a kit to get back into old habits with. Modelled on the 1/1 Odaiba Gundam, this 30th anniversary special edition of the classic mobile suit looks like an awesome update of a classic design. First impressions herein.
Final Fantasy XIII Elixir unboxing
It’s almost becoming something of a tradition for Square Enix to release a licensed energy drink around the time a new Final Fantasy game comes out, so it’s no surprise to anyone that Suntory-licensed FFXIII drinks are currently available.

Tilt-shift Kyoto!
I fired off literally thousands of pictures in my time in Japan last December(doesn’t that make it sound so long ago?) so I’ve picked a few with which to revisit tilt-shift photography. This time it’s shots of Kyoto, i’m sure in time i’ll try and pick some shots for Osaka also. Enjoy!
