Lately I've been seeing other major otaku blogs in Japan take photos from magazines, manga etc. Is my understanding that scanning is evil but photos-of-mags is OK?
Anyway, I really wanted to show you these - 1:100 scale ultra modded Kampfer. I would just love to be able to spend time making one of these...

Need to shoot off to Wonder Festival now - first batch of reports follow tomorrow.

Wow, that is one sweet looking kampfer. Danny, i think you need to do some modifications on your next gundam and post a turtorial on basic modifying techniques if it turns out well.

ps. Im planning on building the aile stiker for my pg strike sometime this week. It would be great if you could give me a couple pointers from your expeirence with it because your's looks really sexy.
thanks!!

Is taking photo from mags really due to the evilness of scanning or is it just a plain excuse for laziness?

Scanning takes quite a few secs for high res and you need to resize it whereas photo taking is just one click.

Besides its possible to take photo at the mag store or bookshop, wouldnt that be more evil?

This design doesn't seem to be that of Keita's...I mean, it isn't on his site that's for sure...well, that being said, it sure is a wicked design.

This Mecha is really terrific ! I like the design and the finish is unbelievable. I would really buy it, but a finished version, because I could not do a job like this.

whoa... holy shi- now thats a kick ass mod. personally, i'd love to find a way not to fudge up my painting on the kits i build. 

kampfers's aesthetic and mechanical design has always been uber sexay. well, so is the sazabi as well, in my books. i really like that feudal samurai armor look they give the zeon suits.

neways, enjoy yourself at WF! take lotsa pics for us to drool over!~

Taking photos is the quick and dirty option. It takes less effort and you need not break the spine of the magazine.

Great looking model. There's nothing wrong with taking pictures/scanning of magazines...well as long as it's not illegal. But the other thing that's evil you did was the horrifying cosplay picture sometime ago. That is forever burned into my brain, shame on you!

Wow! Very nice mods on that Kampfer. I wish I could do that but then again, I don't have much time to do those mods.

Good luck on your trip, Danny. Bring home a lot of pictures, ok?

Scan is okay to me as long you post a comment at the bottom of the picture. It should say, The copyright of this picture belong to "So and so" and it is not belong to Danny Choo. It will save you from lawsuit. If the "so and so" want to suit you. They are definitely a ass hold.

That is one awesome Kampfer model! The first photo you took, of the Kampfer standing over the Zion flag, would make a great poster. =D

Hey Danny,

How do you prepare the scan, do you take the pages from the magazine apart (just cutting them from the edge or is there a secret technique?) and scan them, then file away the loose pages in a binder or portfolio?

Come to think of it, this sounds like a solution to deal with my boxes of HJ or DH - just save the meat of the magazine and burn the ads...
