  • I started building these Gundam model kits and articulation and posing is a big deal in the hobby. Kits are judged on their ability to strike natural looking poses. I discovered that just slightly bending all joints usually does the trick. I was taking selfies on a tripod in front of a 100 yr old drainage culvert and I realized that I too look terrible in photos because I tend to square myself up to the camera and stand as straight as I can. I look like a goofball. Then, I remembered posing the models. I put one foot slightly in front of the other, turned my body slightly to one side, bent my arms slightly, turned my head slightly. Suddenly, I looked like a badass character from The Walking Dead, searching for a safe place in the wasteland.
