>>22716983>No sex robots
>>22716982My darling GM anon in op pic <3
>>22716984Just testing with markers how the calibarn would look with gold.
summin' like 'is? except gold not yellow etc etc
>>22717042Why not paint all of the psychoframe, instead of just most of it?
I get mad orange peel on my topcoat. I think I'm laying it on too thick.
>>22717030>>22717042Nah… hell nah
>>22716984Not 100% done. I think I may put more decals on and try more coats of matte topcoat. Handpainted white onto grey primer, so I had to do a lot of coats which washed out the lines on the leg, making panel lining hard and shitty. Getting white primer for anything white in the future. The head looks a bit weird. Maybe a red fin? Hard to get the right color balance on the body while also showing details from the gun.
>>22717103That looks cool as fuck and weird as fuck at the same time.
>>22717064i just didn't mock it all up on my phone, all the psycho parts would be gold>>22717099how come? white gray and gold with blue eyes would be pretty cool I think
What was the largest kit do you have?
>>22717103It's fucking weird That Zaku have a lips
>>22717113I just ordered a psycho gundam, that will be the biggest when I build it.
>>22717096You don't paint
>>22717099I like the gold colour. I tried with red or blue but just found it kinda flat.
Just found out my face is so fucking greasy I don't even need shaving cream to shave
>>227171131/500 space yamato (2199 ver)probably going to paint it at some point later this month
>>22717113Daban's DX + G-Falcon unit.
>>22717030Fuck I hate gold so much
>>22717103I would say try making the base of the horn red, but it comes out as kind of awkward in my head. Something like going in with some black/dark grey and making the gaps between the pipes on the head more distinct seems like it could work well though.
>>22717030what the fuck is up with those eyes lmao
Any thoughts on if we will ever get an hg turn x?
>>22716910>got into the hobby in 2013I'm sorry bros. It's because of me.
besides iron bleed orphans and the lesbian from mercury, I haven't watched a Gundam in forever. what should I watch? i want something that will make me cry
>>22717211Gundam SEED Freedom
>>22717211MS IGLOO
>>22717211g-reco's animation will make you cry tears of joy
>>22717220Bandai, the MG... The RG that comes with a firework to blow it up...
>>22717231I'm happy the HG is still a nice kit, but I would kill for a MGEX that's got a fully spring loaded frame that can pop all the limbs and armor off when you press a button.
>>22717231If only RE1/100 wasn't essentially dead in the water. The Zudah would probably fit that pretty well.
>>22717237>Coming up with an entirely new empty mold for what is essentially a Zaku II 2.0I wish Re/100 didn't exist so you fags would stop begging for kits to be unnecessarily in that line.
>>22717242ye gib
>>22717231>canadian terrorists sabotage supply of RG Zudah’s destroying Bandai’s second factory
>>22716984
>>22717257Not like this. I can't have those damn leafs committing domestic terrorism and ruining everything. Keep them on the railroads.
Prediction: Gundam MK-II Ver. Ka will be announce at the end of July.
>>22717277>ver ka of a robot that doesn't need itGenuinely fuck bandai and fuck katoki if they dare do this.
>>22717277You'll get a wildcard Nero and you'll like it.
>>22717103Very cool, but your paint looks thick.
>>22717113Artifact Big Zam
>>22717281P-Bandai HG & MG Nero BUT only Japanese citizens can purchase it as Katoki finally snapped, and went full Nippon damashii, wanting his designs to be owned by Japanese people only.
>>22717291Weren't they already doing that with the Neo Zeongs?
>>22717113Nightingale
>>22717293Didn't those get a US release but they got immediately scalped by chinks, or am i thinking of a different Zeong?
>>22717199Get a load of fourth best builder over here.
They call me 6th best builder.
>>22717296No you're right. Chinese people were posting screenshots of themselves buying the Neo Zeong on the US P-Bandai store
>>22717113Deep Striker
Who the fuck is 1st best builder
I'm the 5th best builder, and the 3rd strongest mole.
>>22717014great work anon looks amazing
>>22717320You, anon! :)
>resin conversion kit for a 3rd party notaGundam to turn it into a GundamThis says something about Bandai, AI just don't know what.
>>22717320Barzamanon is 1st best at photoshopping flaws out of his model pictures
I actually think the next MG will be Mk-II ver. KaThe ver Ka MGs tend to be all UC. In fact, the only non UC ver Kas are the Wing and Wing Zero EWs, which are his own designs. So I don’t think we’ll ever get IBO or witch ver Kas. And a lot of the UC gundams already have updated MGs. It’s pretty much narrowed down to Mk-II, something from stardust memory (which he worked on), or maybe something from the Hathaway movie (also his work). He worked on G Gundam but it seems like they’re in the middle of a 1/144 line for that show.You might think the Mk-II doesn’t need a ver Ka, but Bandai doesn’t think that way. The 2.0 is old as fuck and they made a Zeta ver Ka when it already had a 2.0 that was old as fuck.
>>22717346GP03 ver Ka would be one of my dream kits
g-3 saviour ver ka
>>22717363I think it’s coming dude. If we don’t get it next year, 2026 is an anniversary year for stardust memory.
>>22717375When was the last time they announced an MG for an anniversary? This year is G-Reco 10th, anniversary, Turn A 25th anniversary, G Gundam 30th anniversary, and 0080 35th anniversary, isn't it?
MG G-self Ver. Ka, Mg Age 3, and Mg Age FX when?
it's about time we have a 1/144 Space Colony kit
>>22717381MG Zeta ver Ka for 20th anniversary of the MG ver Ka line IIRC
>>227173871/144 Colony Devil Gundam soon
>>22717277>implying we're getting any MG that isn't Seed for the nest 4 years
I wish I had the space and money to build something like this for my gunpla, has anyone got a cool layout or diorama for their mobile suits?
SEEDbros, this is our 12/25. We eating good for the next 4 years
I low key don’t get the hate for SEED kits. It had good designs. The rest of the show has nothing to do with the designs.
>>22717431I like the Testament Gundam but everything else from SEED looks ugly to me. This is also coming from someone whose favorite is the Penelope so
I only like OYW designs
>>22717443BASED Tomino enjoyer
>>22717443>I only like OYW designs
>>22717431The only complain Seed kits have is how sticker-heavy they are, especially Revive Freedom and Rising Freedom. But for me, after torturing myself with IBO kits, my complains on Seed kits disappeared completely.
>>22717431IDK, it's all generic to me. Also the over-use of backpacks. Even the other AUs have some designs I like, but not SEED for some reason.
>>22717431outside of a few exceptions seed designs are uninspired and generic. boy i sure love identical generic gundam #73 with some gimmick backpack
personally i'm a toymaxxer
>>22717296They recently got a US release. However, I recall pictures of the Neo Zeongs from years ago with no way but proxy buying to procure them.
>>22717468why are you watching gundam if you hate gundams
>>22717463>>22717468What makes a gundam “generic”?
>>22717431No it didn't have good designs
>>22717468>identical generic gundam #73Honestly, i grew to love that generic gundam looks. I bought several novel designs like Aerial, Asmodeus, Raphael, etc...And i realized that, these designs don't feel like Gundam, they don't have that romantic, special timeless feels and more like generic slop you can find anywhere on artstation. I would rather own something generic but familar and endearing rather than something fresh but easily to get bored after a few days.
Why does It look like an overstuffed sausage casing
>>22717479Basically the samurai man with 2 facevents is what you can call "generic gundam". I get where the complainers comming from, this design language has been aroun for a few decades now. However, everytime a "male type" Gundam design ignores this design language, they feel boring to me. The type of fembot like Nobel or Exia ( probably ) doesn't have it is fine, but cases like G Self or Turn A feels really offensive. Barbatos follows the samurai man with facevents formula but the overall design of it still feels too weird compares to the traditional gundam design and overtime i got sick of it.
>>22717479He told you. The uninspired motifs are what makes them generic.
>>22717492Nice RG pic, but can you stop being so insecure about your body?
>>22717501I would rather have more of those over crap like these.
>>22717503>my body You mean my dick in your moms pussy?
>>22717431I don't dislike them unless they get too much attention.
>>22717477i don't
>>22717501Soul and Kino.
>>22717507>I would rather haveNo thanks. I don't want the generic as the zoomers say "Slop" gundams. They look like they're 100% design by committee.
>>22717520Fuck off tourist.
>>22717530>Liking traditional looking gundam>TouristNice reach.
>>22717528Imagine being so mindbroken that you feel ashamed for not enjoying the modern bastardization of Gundam designs like these. This shit is digimon, not gundam.
The worst FSS/GTM design is better than the best Gundam design.
>>22717540Nagano, please...
>>22717431It's difficult to separate the mecha from the animated show that it was portrayed in. SEED/Destiny is still one of the worst entries in the franchise, and the few good designs from the show can't really escape that.>>22717492It looks bulky and tough, like an Obari mecha that didn't skip leg day. I like it.>>22717507>the four-armed Gundam that crushes enemies to death with mecha-sized pliersversus>generic stock combat role Gundams that Okawara was forced to projectile vomit onto a drawing board en masse
They have the Gatexion MK-III at the Volks booth at Anime Expo but they want $800 for it. Might grab it by the end of the day if it's still there.
>>22717544>>generic stock combat role Gundams that Okawara was forced to projectile vomit onto a drawing board en masseYes, more of them please.
>>22717507>>22717538>YOU DON'T LIKE MUH HECKIN PRECIOUS SEED?>YOU MUST BE AN IBOBORTION!!!!Please go away.

>>22717538I like this guy
Please be patient with the SEED fan, he's from a very poor country and never learned etiquette.
>>22717564I feel like whenever there is a criticism on popular reddit crap like Turn A or IBO, there is always an army of faggots, ready to bite back over here.
>>22717571Your shitposting was not subtle.
>>22717574Subtle shitposting is the most retarded thing a 4channer can do. Fuck those "creative gundam designs", they feels like they are ashamed of having gundam in their names.
>>22717492Finally an RX-78 with a nice silhouette
I disagree with the notion that Gundam-like designs are inherently "generic" and "uninspired". Verily, there are some SEED Gundams that are basically just rehashes of other Gundams. However, some of the "generic" Gundams like the strike or impulse are some of the most inspired designs in the whole franchise. By reducing a Gundam to its most basic elements - straight lines, primary colors, basic forms like the samurai elements and blocky proportions, Okawara skillfully expresses an ideal of pure abstraction and universality that transcends the individual subjectivity of modern bastardizations of Gundam like the Barbatos. This reduction is an exploration of the fundamental structure of Gundams as an ideal. But I wouldn't expect the zoombrained idiots in this general to understand.
>>22717616I mean, lore wise, Strike Gundam is the RX78-2 of Cosmic Era. I still find that "generic gundam design" to be more endearing and also the cooler. If it is "uninspired", then Gundam wouldn't have several giant statues and become the powerhouse of a franchise like today.
I'm a Wingfag but I don't mind SEED designs.Impulse is a cool design for me plus stuff like the Druggies Gundam (god I hope they do HGCE kits of them someday)
>>22717622Exactly. Many of the "generic gundams" are an attempt to convey Gundam as an ideal. If someone doesn't appreciate Gundam as an idealized form, then I don't understand what they're doing on a Gundam thread as all other Gundams are just instances and expressions of this form.
>>22717394How big would that even be? the size of a moon?
>>22717630>a Gundam threadmaybe you missed the "& plamo" in the thread title. this isn't just a gundam thread, loads of non-gundam mecha models get posted here
>>22717631If they ever do Colony Devil Gundam as HG, that probably would be in the size of Dendrobium or Neo Zeong kit.
>>22717634There is one (maybe more) retard ITT who thinks you're only allowed to discuss gunpla in /gpg/ (gunpla plamo general)
>>22717634I'm pretty sure this guy is the zetarager shitposter who worships yas
>>22717634NTA but there is a baby's first gundam syndrome recently, a mix of contrarians and newcommers who became interested in Gundam franchise through shows with absolutely non-gundam designs like G Witch and IBO. Sure, disliking Seed as a story is fine, it is a popular opinion anyway however, dunking on that familiar gundam design language? That's absolutely a crime in my eyes, especially as someone who went through that "generic gundam design is boring" phase.
>>22717634>>22717637>>22717643>The & operator computes the logical AND of its operands. The result of x & y is true if both x and y evaluate to true. Otherwise, the result is false.looks like you are the brainlet. your statement is a contradiction.
>>22717646We're only 121 posts in to this thread, how about you fuck off.
>>22717282Yeah, I'm using the last of the testors starting kit from hobby lobby over grey primer. I had to do way too many coats of white. For the next project I have white primer and am going to try the tamiya paints. Crazy how variable the paintability was for the color. Blue and black were much easier. Took 2 coats to get great coverage. White needed like 5 or 6.
>going from HG Aerial to an old Seed 1/100 NGDamn, I thought I was prepared for the quality drop, but I guess I wasn't. How easy is it to go back fixing up already built kits? I've already got the legs/waist built and now I'm wondering if I should trying taking it all apart for a later project attempt or just finish it and try fixing it up at a later date.I've been wanting to get back into painting so it might work as good project fodder. Try out both handpainting and seeing if I can get away with setting up my airbrush where I currently live.
>>22717660A-anon wtf happened? How are you having issues just snap building? You simply remove the nubs and follow basic instructions to put the pieces together.
>>22717660Majority of Seed kits are good in term of engineering. I have HG Strike Freedom and was pleasantly surprised by how rock solid and sturdy it is, unlike Aerial which is starting to get rather floppy.
>the past 50 or so postsrange ban SEA
>>22717678Anon, it's 4:25 PM in America. It's American hour.
>>22717678Why do they get so uppity at the sheer notion that someone doesn't like seed?
>>22716984I put an action base connector in the hg guntank I'm building. Put it in the middle of the four bottom thrusters but checking with the top part it would maybe have been better to put it more forward for balance.
>>22717674Huh? I'm talking about the kit itself having a quality drop. Lots of seams and poor colour separation kind of issues, not much in the way of panel line detail either. It's not a matter of it being difficult, it's more that it could use some help looking better.>>22717677I'm building the 1/100 NG Blaze Zaku Warrior (Heine Custom) which I literally bought just because I like orange. It's not terrible compared to some things I've built and surprisingly solid, it's more wanting to do touch ups and seam welding, maybe pick a nicer shade of orange.
>>22717691>which I literally bought just because I like orangeGreat taste, Anon.
>>22717682Nigga, the original complain is " traditional gundam design in Seed are uninspired". .>>22717463Imagine complaining about "overused backpack" and shit when even the first Gundam has a backpack, using the popular hate fodder to hide his lack of appreciation for the classic design language of the franchise.
>>22717694I'm not that anon, I think Seed designs has some good designs, and some bad designs, but do you really don't see any difference between the backpack the rx-78-2 has and the ginormous silhouette defining backpacks that permeate Seed designs?
>>22717698I think complain about "overused backpack" is fucking stupid and not a valid criticism.
>DUDE I FUCKING LOVE BACKPACKS
Backpacks are cool when they're carrying an arsenal and not being the main source of inspiration for chinkspikes.
>>22717717tell me about the chinks. why do they love spikes so much?
>>22717713Imagine not liking backpacks.
>have IBO kit and SEED kit on my desk right nowHuehuehuehueI didn't have enough clips for all of the armor parts so the strike freedom will have to wait a bit more to get his left arm armored. Painting when it's not over 40c outside is nice
>>22717694>comparing a backpack that has 2 small thrusters and holds 2 beam sabers to this shit in honest faithYou are so stupid I'm labeling you as a falseflag, nobody can be that retarded.
>>22717717Not all chinkchong toys have wings and spiky backpacks. Most of them are Yanase-inspired with shitload of details and greebles.
UOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH I LOVE BACKPACKS
>>22717732God Blue Astray is so cool, especially the backpack.

>>22717746Absolutely beautiful. Seed and Astray really is peak. Took me awhile to realize its true beauty.
>>22717752I enjoy the astrays, but the latest red frame kinda looks retarded
>>22717759The one with the giant arms? Yeah it looks dumb. And no backpack.
>>22717762The one with a beam v-fin, it got a metal build not too long ago, hard to tell what you're looking at on promo pics
>>22717762Must have been a reject from G Gundam. Not appropriately campy enough for G Gundam and not serious enough for SEED but standards are non existent so add it in.
Anyone here have the PG Strike Rouge? Been tempted to get it for a while now but I can't decide if I like it enough or not.
>>22717767I bet the SEAniggers here do. You picked the right time to ask, they’re all posting here right now.
>>22717765Oh, Astray Red Dragon. Honestly i'm ok with it.
>>22717767PG is such a waste of resources and storage space. You can stop with MG, as if they are not huge enough already.
>>22717776PG is supposed to be big enough that the size is impressive but not so big that it's unaffordable.

>>22717910>Everywhere I go I must also rape
>>22717907They tried to recreate something that is absolutely fine into an abomination. Whoever greenlit the head design should be fired. It so bad.
>>22717894Or they can just go Another Century's cinematic intro route and make the MS with washed out color. Gundam can look quite realistic with low saturation colorscheme. Gundam EX ( that's its name ) looks too unbelievable for a military hardware because letting your arsenals to be full of exposed internal mechanics is a no no.
>>22717913Both the Gundam and the Zaku somehow look as if they're made of fleshy material instead of metal in the marketing shots. I don't know how they managed to do that but it's genuinely gross.

new thread whenthere's no saving this one
>>22717927Probably a nepo baby. His tiny cgi studio somehow made a cgi movie for Resident Evil called Infinite Darkness. Probably a guy who can work on shitty low budgeted slop and Banrise entrusted him with another OYW slop.
>>22717941Don't backpedal now fatty
This is the best thread we’ve had in months

>>22717936I dont know why this looks bland to me while I like the heavy gundam more. Its exactly the same suit.
>>22717948See how the ladyboy must resort to lies and trickery to defend his shitty Seed backpacks? Filthy vietcong tactics are being deployed to try and damage the honor of REAL backpackless gundams like the Zeta
>>22717952Anyone brave enough to take a sneak peek at this? I am puking just from seeing the thumbnail.

Your broke ahh can’t even afford to buy food, much less actual model kits and airbrushing set up.

every gundam design can be improved by being made beefier
>>22718043WOW this looks good
>>22718043100% truei'd extend that to basically every mecha even
>>22718043hold up though. if every gundam design can be improved by being made beefier, then why does bandai give every kit twink proportions?
>>22718050they have bad taste
>>22718047>>22718049>guy worked on this kit for 5 years to get the proportions just right>sold it at 1 event for a single day>event has since shut down with no sign of returningpain
>>22718053>>22718043and niggas in this general be like "the MG 2.0 is fine"hopefully GODtoki fixes it with next year's ver Ka.
>>22718055mk2 if he went to auschwitz
>>22718055most gunpla doesn't look good for 2 reasons>aesthetic sacrifices for the sake of articulation>trying to portray mobile suits as actual machines rather than as anime characters
>>22718064Terrible opinion, bordering on factually incorrect considering articulation points are built into the aesthetics
>>22718069Based. Talk your shit anon. Bandai is just a fucking garbage company. Sick of the “small mom and pop shop, prease understand” bullshit all the fucking time.
>>22718064They dont look good because plastic molding isnt like magic. Maybe 3d printing could do it but the tech is still not there to handle the production.
>>22717908They nutt all over each for this overdone turkey but someone details anything else beyond anime accuracy and they remove their tongues from each other's contrary asses long enough to all bitch about it identically.
>>22718087That overdone turkey is a custom build, anon... You are proving the point even further that kitbashing builds are retarded.https://gkgundamkit.blogspot.com/2017/09/custom-build-hguc-1144-rx-121-1-gundam.html?m=1
>>22717174It's the one included with the sticker decal.
>>22718069>articulation points are built into the aestheticsvery poorly and with the power of "not needing to actually function since we'll draw it doing whatever we want and hide elements that would look fucked up."
>>22718087god that's hideoushonestly shit like this makes me appreciate snapshitters
>>22718043I look like this MK-II IRL
>>22718053blessed be the chinese
>>22718043Yeah maybe if this was beefy it would be good.
>>22718149looking forward to the ugly pbandai HG kit of this that will cost like 9000 yen cause of the gross electroplating silver
>>22717992>locked behind p-bandai to gatekeep poorfag SEAnigsDamn, i guess i'm not a SEAnig, then?
>>22718171If those fucking awful muttified designs from Requiem for Vengeance get retail kits but the Silver Phantom MS don't I am done with Bandai.
>>22718003Impeccably based taste. I just finished painting my Burglarydog, just waiting on my decals in the mail before weathering. How do you like the Dougram kit?
>>22718202Is that the Wave version or Bandai version?
>>22718207Bandai
>>22718194They will make kits for Silver Phantom at some point, but not now. Current projects in development are Seed Zgok, MG Narrative B Pack and Psycho Gundam MK2.
Sab panel liners, they worth the hype or are they overpriced?
>>22718202wait this is painted? chat is this real?
>>22718219If you're not a professional modeler who's work will be scrutinized under a microscope for contests and magazine covers, then yeah. Cheaper alternatives do the job just fine with negligible difference in the finished product.
>>22718233I'm not a professional modeler, but I have the heart of a lion and always aspire for the best.
>>22718237Fucking based, in that case yeah follow your dreams
>>22718194it's going to be p-bandai cause silver phantom isn't being heavily invested in by bandai. The requiem for revenge shit however is because it's bandai namco's weird testbed for bayformers tier gundams that were designed to appeal to a wider western audience, and may or may not be what the new live action gundam might look like in terms of horrible greeble.
Do you like my Psychedelic Doga?
I forgot to take a picture of it but there's some fluorescent blue on there including the eye.
>>22718268>>22718264Looks sick anon. I like it.
>>22718264>>22718268Yes. Well done. Holy crap bandai and those seams on the feet though.
>>22718264>>22718268>seamlineschat is this real?
>>22718274
>>22718227>>22718274Don't you have some fucking thighs to cut or something champ?
>>22718283I'm the first anon you replied to. I told the other anon that I couldn't tell his kit was painted and he had to defend his ego by lashing out at this psychadelic doga guy's paint job because he couldn't feel like a man without getting into an altercation with someone.
>>22717733That kit looks sexy as fuck.
Got in the mood for some chibi.What are some good SD kits??
>>22718252I pray to god that requiem flops and that they stop catering to the western audience.
>>22718289Leave tourist
At the rate we've been getting MGs lately, do you guys think we will ever get MGs from relatively recent TV shows like Witch, IBO, G-Reco, or the rest of the planned AGE MGs?Looking at the release history, we got the first SEED MG a couple months after it finished airing. Freedom came a year after, and a slew of SEED MGs followed in the years following Destiny. We got the first 00 MG a couple months after it finished airing, with a slew of MGs following over the next couple years. We got 4 AGE MGs while it was airing and 2 more within a year after it finished.Based on this, the trend is that MG releases tend to follow promptly after the conclusion of a TV series. Despite this, we got no G-Reco MGs, no AGE MGs in 11 years, 1 IBO MG in 7 years, and no witch MGs. I think it's possible, likely even, that witch follows G-Reco as the first TV production without MGs, based on the sheer lack of releases in recent years.
>>22718314They don't make as much money for the effort put in to 3D model the parts, engineering, and design, as well as the plastic molds. You'll see HGs and full mechanics more than master grades. Even real grades are probably cheaper to engineer than master grades despite the smaller scale, so those will also be more common.
>>22718326It is cost less to print RG due to their scale. Also, i personally prefer RG over Full Mechanics and MG so i won't feel like i missed out on anything 1/100 scale. Bandai also discontinued Mega Size line sometimes ago due to their weak performance and high production cost.
>>22718326I hear you my brother. But Bandai seems to defy all logic. We used to get 5-9 MGs a year. You’d think after killing off the line, they’d replace it with something else. But we only get 1-2 RGs a year and average 1 FM a year since its inception.It just feels like gundam is dying. We took it for granted, but in the past we really got spoiled with new releases. Tons of MGs every year, the yearly 2 RGs, tons of shit in other grades. What we get now is peanuts compared to the past.
>>22718337The 5-9 MG figure is new molds by the way. When you count parts variants it’s much higher. Even parts variants feel like a luxury now. I want my MG Zaku I 2.0…
I want to touch gundam planet anon and anime expo anon inappropriately
>>22718337>Gundam dying>The franchise alone made them $976 million USD.I refuse to believe that shit.
>>22718353What is causing the lack of new releases in other grades than HG then?
Will it be retail release or P-Bandai?
>>22718359retail HG and no other grades.
>>22718359The old HGs with the new colors and maybe some new parts.
Gone but not forgotten.
>>22716982Test
>>22718356Because bandai can get away with it now. They'll just release a bunch of actual garbage and everyone will buy it. They don't care.
>>22718356Not a day goes by without MGtards whining about lack of kits. Fuck off, you child. Buy some other kit. For fuck's sake
>>22718388MGfags are just mega normie who doesn't care for anything other than special snowflake posterboys Bandai cherrypicked to make MG. They are the Appletard of plamo community, buying the expensive shit to flex their wealth.
>>22718337HG and MG are the core of the Bandai gunpla lineup, everything else including RG is sorta secondary. If they announce that MG is dead then it sounds bad to stockholders and makes them worry, and would piss off fans because MG is a long-running series, and Full Mechanics and Hi-RM is not really considered a replacement for MG.I think it's been a long time coming, FM (and RE/100) were attempts at seeing if fans would appreciate and buy into same scale but simplified engineering, but my guess is that they didn't really see the same success so RE/100 was quietly discontinued. Without a proper replacement but also MG not bringing in as much money, it feels like they're slowing down the releases to try and figure out what they can do in the meantime, short of actually stopping and putting the MG line on hiatus.
>>22718394>price bitching about MGs>mad that others can afford them>ESLEvery. Single. Time.
>>22718395I think the 1/100 scale is what turning people down. Gunpla audience is aging, their lives don't have much time and space to buy and contain so many big sized toys like back then. 1/144 is a much more ideal scale to hoard and store. Also, the fact that both HG, EG and RG are improving also weaken MG's influence. Back then, MG was the only good looking gunpla line, but now, there are many other choices, but cheaper and easier to store.
>>22718400Nigga no one cares if you are rich. People can afford stuff like Metal Build, Perfect Grade and bunch of other fancier toys. MG is just the novice tier and not worth to flex, unless you are a faggot.
>>22718400Not that anon, but you're the only one I see bitching. I'm sorry a multibillion Yen company isn't catering to your shitty taste. They don't want to make MGs, suck it up. Stop repeating this idiotic refrain in every single fucking thread.
>>22718400>>mad that others can afford them>pricetag is usually 100 dollars or lessYou don't need to larp as a wealthy American, anon.
>>22718410>>22718412>>22718413Good morning saars, brownoids out in full force I see!
>>22718418You should be grateful that retail HG and RG are the norm in Gunpla market. If you are into Kamen Rider, you will understand how fucked it is when almost everything ended up as P Bandai with ridiculously inflated price due to scalpers. That's a real dick measuring contest for MG purist like you.
>>22718427I don't buy MGs, I just like making fun of the brownoids that lose their mind every time they're mentioned, saar.
>>22718407What is this called? Armchair psychologist? Armchair economist? Did you watch a Vice video and think Japanese people live in 1-tatami capsules?
>>22718443Call me anything you want. Bandai slowing the development of MG down for a reason. If it is super profitable like back then, they would have spam it relentlessly.
>>22718359p-bandai. If I'm wrong, I'll buy all three and go through the annoying process of stripping away the electropating silver and post pics
I want to start hand painting like this boomer. How exactly do I undo my mistakes with brush painting? Wont dipping the thing in paint thinner destroy the plastic?
>>22718450Is this the same guy who painted these?
>>22718410>Metal build.>Not novice tier.Huh?
>>22718450Boomer modeler is a different breed.
>>22718451Is there more than one guy? I just saw him on youtube by random and now suddenly I want to be exactly like him.
I have a problem with my iwata eclipse hp-cs where the needle chucking guide will get stuck when I pull it back. As you can see in the picture, the trigger is loose and in a forward position but the needle chucking guide is in the pulled back position. The needle and nozzle aren’t in so they aren’t the problem. Anybody know what it is and how to fix it?

Just look at his fucking guntank treads. It looks so fucking good. Does inhaling all those microplastics make you better at seeing this shit?
>>22718461https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYpUR6q48vMUse hardware store lacquer thinner to clean the moving parts involved.
>>22718472Some of the advice in this video is retarded. Those pipe cleaners will fuck up the inside of your airbrush.
>>22716984I finished Gourai-kai today! I finally found the piece that went missing a few weeks ago, so I was able to continue with her. Now all that's left are some extra accessories and the exosuit chair/frame and I'll be done with this kit.
>>22718467Who is this?
Been seeing a few Xabungle Walker Machine kits both 1/100 and 1/144 scale at my hobby shops, didn't purchase them because I'm one of those weirdoes that has to do research first. Went down a rabbit hole and tracked down all the kits by number (outside of a few 1/500 kits involving Land Ships).-1/48Hobuggy-1/100#1 Trad Eleven#2 Gallop#3 Crab#4 Government#5 Caprico#6 Promeus#7 Dugger#8 Ottrich#9 Xabungle#10 Galabagos#11 Walker Gallia and Leg-1/144#1 Dugger#2 Government#3 Promeus#4 Caprico#5 Xabungle#6 Gallop#7 Trad 11#8 Crab#9 Ottrich#10 Galabagos#11 Sendvead#12 Walker Galliar-1/1000#1 Iron Gear and XabungleNo idea why the Gunpla Wiki or any model kits site does not have the full list. Hell, I even found out Master Grade did Patlabor kits and a Dunbine kit back in the early 2000s. Pic related is my facebwhwn I'm the first guy to actually track the kits down by number.
Should weathering be done on the same gloss coat as panel lining and decals? Or should another coat be added on top after decals and panel lining? If so, should this additional coat be gloss or matte?
>>22718492>No idea why the Gunpla Wiki or any model kits site does not have the full list.Isn't shit like this why we have a board wikia?
>>22718492>picThat translator needs to be fired.
>>22718505I doubt Yapool would allow toyline articles that focused on a single IP. Someone can ask.
I guess this eclipse is just fucked. Dogshit ass brush man. I don’t have any of these problems with my other brush. What a fucking waste of money. I’ll probably get a harder and steenbeck evolution tomorrow.
>>22718492Any anons here buy Xabungle kits and if yes what are they like compared to UCHG kits? Both 100 and 144. Thinking of getting some to use up some citadel paints I haven't bothered using up.
>>22718543i bought the 1/100 galabagos and it's a lot more like old old model kits where it's just two colour plastics, and definitely needs glue.
>>22718483Cody:https://www.youtube.com/@ch-xz5mw
PBandai Spinatio is here. Feels great to be a SEA.
Valuable Pod will be reprinted under the new brand name.
>Literally the same mold>Won't reprint the green version along with this
>>22717113I don't know how big this resin NZ-666 is. Haven't built it yet, neither Unleashed Grandpa. Maybe I should work on one of them soon. One of them for sure, but for now it's Nu ver Ka.
>>22718644I still don't understand why this and Amazing Barbs Lupus are retail.
>>22718651>Amazing Barbs LupusWell, all of the kits from that build thing are retail, are they not? Why would this be an exception
>>22718651You know, gundam "fanbase" bitch when Bandai gatekeep something in P Bandai. And when Bandai doesn't, the are still bitching. You are damned to have an obscure or non-story importance robot to be in retail. Not everyone are hooked by your flavour of the month robot, ok?
Kaiyodo's Eva kit.
>implying those recolours (of turbo shelf warmers to boot lmao) aren't obscure or literal whos
>The first impulse you see in combat>MG sees more reissues in a year than most MGs>RG and HGCE is in pbandai hell>But recolours of kyou senki and Build flop kits are retaildefend this shit
>>22718689I know you are trying to do this autistic "not replying" just to show how angry you are, anon, but Bandai does what Bandai wants, especially when they see a market for it. You probably don't know what the fuck does Kaiyodo or Tamiya sell in modelkit market, but they still have their own audiences.
>>22718693Source for all statistics?
EG RX78-2 done. The panel line wash got in the seam of the leg armor but I already glued the kneecaps on and despite putting it somwhere safe to dry some dust got in the topcoat. Stickers are from an origin version, got them from the friend who gave me this kit
>>22718711Unironically more coherent and well thought than majority of customs here lmao.
I got a bottle of tamiya accent color and some lighter fluid after I've already built my kit. I dont plan to paint it or anything, just panel line to make details more defined.Turns out it apparently damages already built unpainted, or at least some claim. The google arguments seem divisive so I'm not sure who to believe. What can I do to avoid damaging my kit while still keeping it unpainted and panel lined? Apparenlty wiping it down within a minute would help, but what do I know?
>>22718337we get less releases nowadays because bandai has been making tons of different non-Gundam lines. so yeah they killed MG's just so they can release more dinosaur kits.
>>22718733>what do I do to avoid damagingJust topcoat with spraycan some transparent paint before you use panel wash/accent.
>>22718741>they killed MG's just so they can release more dinosaur kits.worth
>>22718753honestly I'd probably the same, only some MGs are cool but all dinosaurs are cool
>>22718742Any good brands? Do I only topcoat over surfaces that I plan to panel line?
>>22718400nta, but I'm just not overly fond of 1/100 scale. Brings back too many sad memories of how badly Flames of War went to shit, and outside of wargaming minis like that there are very few compatible kits.Not a money thing either, if I have a choice between a 200 dollar 1/144 kit of a subject I want and a 200 dollar 1/100 kit of a subject I want, I'd go for the 1/144 kit everytime, same goes for a 20 dollar kit (I like making old kits and I leave the real type kits on the shelf of my local hobby store in favour of things like 1/144 Zock at the same price).
post wips of the Plannosaurus kits then?
this is my first time building a kotobukiya kit, actually it's my first non-bandai plamo ever.anything I should know? I already have my instant glue ready.
>>22718543>what are they like compared to UCHG kits?Absolutely not comparable.Those kits are from the early 80s, aren't snapfit and NEED cement, painting is mandatory and the articulation is barebones at best (the 1/100 Xabungle is a borderline brick from the waist down - pretty neat surface detail, thou).
the more I work on my kit the more I hate it (the kit itself not the work I've done)
>>22718755NTA but tamiya is the only one I used back when I was still using cans and it's decent and yeah I guess.You would be better off just spraying the whole thing because you are not suppose to hold your can so closely to your model or spraying it like you would spray WD40 over a squeaky hinge.
>>22718711I'm still waiting for EG Zaku-II
>>22717882Willingly exposing that you're a fat tranny, ruining plamo. Holy shit
Model kit when?
>>22718774>using WD-40 on a squeaky hinge instead of picrelI SHIGGY
>>22718765Use technical jelly on joints and connections.
