ebasenet is an acronym for Erix93, Whitebase,
and G_net, which are the online alter-egos of 3 friends based
in Malaysia who are into miniature modelling, specifically
on Gundam Models. We met during a local competition some
time back and the rest is as they say... history. |

Erix93, is a modeler from kuala Lumpur,
Malaysia has been involved in the hobby for more than 10
years. He is also the most senior member of E-BaseNet It
all began for him while he was still in high school, when
there were no MG kits yet. He started off with his first
kit, a 1/144 Re-GZ. Back then it was so difficult to
find a decent hobby shop selling quality plastic model kits.
Not to mention finding modeling tools and equipment was also impossible as there
were no shops like this. As the years went by erix93 started joining Gundam modeling
competitions and won his first competition in 1998. He managed to get a consolation
that year.
After a few more competitions he met Whitebase at one of the Gundam showdowns
in the year 2003 . They became good friends and have been exchanging ideas regarding
Gundam modeling ever since. They are also always in healthy competition between
each other because that is one way to ensure they improve every year!
Erix93 has been finishing in the top 3 positions in every competition since then
and even managed to secure first place in the Bandai Action Kits Asia Cup in
2005 held in Hong Kong.
As of today erix93 has completed countless models from all different genres not
only Gundam and is thinking of slowing down and retiring from competitive modeling
but who knows, he might surprise us all with another winning entry this year! |

Forum Nickname : Whitebase
Real Name : Ng Jit Seng
Location : Selangor, Malaysia
Year of Birth : 1975
Marital status : Married
Children : Coming Soon!
Started Modelling : 1997
First Model Kit : 1/144 Zaku Cannon

Whitebase from the state of Selangor Malaysia is the
perfectionist member
of the Trio E-BaseNet. Because of this nature he seems
to take a little
longer than g-net to complete his models. With a
background in
engineering whitebase took to the hobby of modeling
with much ease and
a tremendous amount of creativity.
Years ago he began
this hobby with
his very first model, 1/144 Zaku Cannon. After that there
was no turning back!
Since then he has indulged himself into the modeling
world with an
impressive amount of Hobby Japan and Dengeki Magazines
to prove it.
Though taking up the hobby since his school days, it
was only lately
with the availability of competitions has he had the
opportunity to meet
up with a stranger called erix93….
The rest is
history, plus many many many late nights of teh tarik and talking about
plastic. Having won a few
competitions whitebase is most notably known in
Malaysia as “the one
who has yet to complete a 1/100 MG model” as he
prefers to work in his
favorite 1/144 scale. Whitebase is also known to use
chloroform when
he builds….. for unknown reasons. |

G-net, being the ‘Net’ in E-BaseNet comes
from Petaling Jaya, Selangor. Among the other 2 experienced
modelers g-net is the newest member only joining the modeling
community in 2002. His first model was an FG Zaku II which
he bought in Parkson supermarket years before that. Still
a student at the time it was hard to find money to buy the
more expensive models. In 2002 he bought his first MG model
which was the RX-78 GP01.
In 2004 he joined his first modeling competition and managed to place 2nd Runner
Up. After that G-net has tried to join as many competitions as possible but missed
a few (because he is the second slowest builder in E-BaseNet) Among those which
he did manage to compete in was the BAK Universal Cup (BAKUC) of 2006. That year
he represented Malaysia to Hong Kong for the Finals which unfortunately he did
not win anything.
G-net met up with Whitebase and Erix93 in 2004 and has been friends sharing the
interest in modeling ever since. G-net’s favorite Gundam model is the PG RX-178
Titans Mk II and his favorite modeling tool is Tamiya Xtra Thin Cement. |
