2024 Start!
A happy new year.
Thank you for your continued support this year.
Over the past two or three years, things haven't been progressing as planned, so I'm trying to figure out the cause and gradually changing the way things are done through trial and error, but there are still issues to be solved.
This year, I'm thinking of going back to basics and moving forward.
This blog is also a process of trial and error, and I'm thinking of taking a little more time to write various articles this year.
This time I'll be posting things that I've carried over from last year, but that I plan to write about in the future.
First up is Fujimi's Diablo SV MY96.
This will be made using the SE30jota conversion kit, which was scheduled to be released last year but is now scheduled to be released this month a little later.
Next is Fujimi's Diablo, but this is a normal version that is still available.
Since SV MY96 is not available, I will combine it with this kit and make it as SE30.
This is Abarth 124GT released last year.
I will also make this in conjunction with Tamiya's Roadster.
This is the Gallardo Superleggera, which was also released last year.
I will make it together with Fujimi's Gallardo.
Aoshima's Huracan is his Performante.
This is planned to be a Huracan/Technica, and I'm currently making parts, but it's quite different from the Performante, so it's likely to be a conversion kit that requires some cutting and pasting.
This is a bike I'm building as a hobby.
It's one of the kits I bought when I was in high school but couldn't make properly, and it's a 1/8 Heller Kawasaki 1000 Godier Genoud that I bought last year for revenge.
I received a wheel from Mr. O, who was the reason I returned to bike modeling last year, so I'm going to make it.
This is Hasegawa's Mach III, which I am currently making mainly.
Like SR, I will be making this bike for Kurusu, who appears in Tokkou no Taku.
There are many other things I want to make and things I want, but these are the ones I'd like to start with.
``Tokkou no Taku'', which has been republished two volumes a month since last year, will reach its final volume this year, so I'm going to try making a bike that I wanted to make at the time but couldn't due to my technical skills.
I hope this year will be a better year for everyone.
Please support us in producing the kit.

It's fascinating to me to watch Fantasy High as a Dutch person because a lot of the "universal high school student" stuff they mix into the story is pretty much equally alien to me as the actual high fantasy elements. Brennan mentioned how the 3am diner hang with friends was so integral to his teenage experience but here there are no diners. Nothing is open at 3am, not even the McDonalds drive through, so unless a friend's parents are out of town, you're either on the street or in bed. I was not a cool kid. I was in bed.
And then there's all the stuff about extracurriculars, trying to get into good schools, having to hustle to get colleges to notice you, and uhhh I clicked a button on a website and my uni said "cool see you next year". I wasn't an exceptional student or anything, I was extremely worried about my grades at age 16, I was worried I'd be bumped down to a different level of high school or held back a year, but dropping out is illegal until you're an adult so that was definitely not on the table. My experience was also not universal for here, and I'm sure this is all also not representative of every US kid's high school experience, but it's still interesting just how far apart the averages are.
