Started some preliminary work on the HGUC Jesta. Basically this kit has only six seamlines to deal with. One on the head, the arms and then the weapon itself. As for the arm, I am using the same technique that I used for the HGUC Sinanju group build.
Trimmed off some of the plastic to make a C-joint for reinsertion.
Also trimmed off some of the pegs to make the reinsertion easier. This way I can save on masking 😛
I decided to go for a thicker bicep area to give this grunt a more muscular feel. Test fitted using the arms from HG Gundam 00.
Also i’ll be giving him some weapons from my old HGUC Kampfer kit. Shot gun just goes well with this guy!!
Well just a little update from me this weekend 😛
Till the next post!
The Toy Room 
Wow, that was fast. Still waiting for mine to arrive, but when it does… hoho… let the fun times begin.

Oh… Modding his arms eh? Guessed what, I’ve mine. Be reviewing soon (make that on Wed).
Forgot a word: “I’ve done mine”
Man you are fast!!!
Want to join the Jesta group build but I guess I won’t be able to make it before November. 😦
no time limit for the GB. enter at anytime, and take your time to finish your kit 😀
even i myself will start building mine near December XD
@ Samejima like what ZD said, no worries even if you build in november as there is no deadline ^^.
looking forward to this man! shotgun was a good call as well as bulking up the arms.
Thanks bro!! Somehow I felt the arms were a tad bit skinny. Glad you like the shot gun addition!
JESTA JESTA JESTA!! Man this kit is gorgeous, I can’t wait to see the end product of yours, especially after you equipped it with a shotgun=D
Haha looks like I made the right choice with the weapon!!! This kit is indeed gorgeous!
Awesome! A Jesta review coming! I’ll also be eagerly waiting 😀
Thanks!! Nah won’t be writing a review for this kit as there are already many reviews out there!
No review, no problem. Just photos of your finished Jesta would do 😉
O.O !
That shotgun is UBER. EPIC.
Thanks!! The shot gun just fits this kit perfectly ^^
that weapon will be possible for a ground type jesta hahaha 😀
planning to do something else more?
So as for the rest its still a wip hehe. Will post if successful ^^
Can you do a poll on what color will you give this guy?
Hmm I already have in mind a certain color bro 😛
I didn’t know this has hit our shores. It’s a must have kit for me! drooling….
HAG has them in stock already bro!
Looks absolutely awesome!
The position of the stand made me lol!
Well most gundam stands will have to be inserted that way 😛
Thickening the biceps sounds like a neat idea there! Kaempfer’s shotgun sure fits the Jesta well, with much akin to a SWAT team in urban combat!
Looking forward to see more of your Jesta; I’m slowly working on mine too!
Haha thanks! I think the bicep area is a bit small. Since its very much a swat unit Kampfer shot gun willl definitely fit the theme ^^.
The shotgun is really a nice touch there! The Jesta is really one must-get kit for me this year! 😀
Hehe its quite a must get for a lot of ppl 😛
The shotgun is perfect for Jesta!
This kit is seriously the new popular boy in school 😀
Hehe the most popular grunt since the zaku 😛
