PERI @ Hot Game Ville


From 25 till 27 March 2011, PERI attended HotGame Ville event which held at the new shopping center Gandaria City. From photo above from left to right (Rizky,Ricco,Roy,Julius,Yudhi Kistyarto and Beta) At this event that I finally meet PERI Makassar member Yudhi Kistyarto. He took annual leave from his daily job at Makassar Airport and have the time to meet with other PERI member especially PERI Jabodetabek.

And you can see some of the completed paper models that PERI showed at the event. Unfortunately the event is too focused on Online Games so the spectator can not see other exhibitor. Although I cannot blame this since Hot Game is one of the most well known Game magazine in Indonesia. Maybe in other event we can attract more participants from the spectator so the people will get to know and involve to paper model.

DO OR DO NOT. THERE IS NO TRY




Little green man named Yoda once said that to Luke Skywalker during his training to master the force in Star Wars Original Trilogy. I believed that wisdom word that I always use in this hobby. In my pursuit to become a fine paper model builder that it's skills can match or overcome the quality of plastic model.  Always put these words in your mind, DO IT. THERE IS NO TRY.

The photos above was taken on my last PERI gathering on Julius Perdana's home.Mr Adhi are the eye behind the digital camera and boy do he really enjoyed it. This was my first ever commercial paper model. I said to myself if I never tried to buy and built my own commercial paper model I will never notch my skills up in cutting, trimming, making tank tracks or heavy weathering that I did on my latest diorama. I called PANTHER G at the Checkpoint. The model was GPM Nr 40 and the checkpoint was GPM bonus.

At last for those of you who want to do the same techniques that I used on my last project like above you should visit my articles on perikertas.com about PAINT and GLUE. Remember DO OR DO NOT. THERE IS NO TRY
