Why isn't there boypla? like on the scale of 30 minute sisters? Not armored robot faced guys, but feminine guys
>>23611607same reason why you dont see men often in gachahomos/worms don't sell
>>23611602wonder if anyone can guess what kind of shit I'm up to (also I need new paintbrushes holy shit)
>>23611612but FGO is full of guys and is the best gacha overall
>>23611607There's the new Megalomaria dude but I don't like his face.
>>23611619FGO and Arknights got clapped by purely waifu oriented gachas. It is easier to find art of Rio Tsukatsuki than shit like Quinirus or Mountain.
>>23611623Temu Raiden
>>23611623put those toes away dude gross, or at least trim your nails jeez
>>23611623I feel like this line got taken over by a retard because all of recent releases have been full dogshit like these.
>>23611629Valiant and Vanguard Leader still include proper robotic faces, it's just Zirconia and Emulator that only have flesh faces. The werewolf dude and the shrine maiden that are future releases are both full robots too. They'll probably end up doing the new Maria kit with a robotic recolour later on as well.
>>23611619gay niggerest game gets the reward of being the gayest niggerest gamewow!
>>23611612>worms...what?
>>23611637>shrine maiden megalomariawhy was i not told about this? it looks awesomecan't really tell what's the theme of the one you posted>>23611629no need to go full hater after one or two slight disappointments, valiant is peak
>>23611659That one's the main character of the series, they did her in her school uniform before and now they're doing her battle outfit. You can strip off a lot of the outfit off and it looks like she's basically a whole new body design for the girl Megalomarias.
>>23611659>ValiantYeah i do love to pay extra for anime girl faces i never wanted.
>>23611663nice, hope the other sst get battle outfits more on the tactical side
>>23611666She's priced about the same as the other ones who come with a lot of accessories. She's got brand new arms, new heels, the whole police uniform, giant handcuffs with a proper chain.
Don't care.I will NEVER buy a gbitch kit.I will NEVER buy a gcucks kit.I WILL buy more Wing kits.I WILL buy more Seed kits.I WILL buy more IBO kits.I WILL buy X kits (when I'm in the mood for it).
>>23611623konami won't be happy about this one
>>23611674Valiant is like one of the most expensive girl so far, next to Green Glass. I just don't want human face in my robotgirl kit.
Mortar Headds were all sovl. When did it go so wrong? https://x.com/ERPmTV9iny3hZFX/status/1987006121601868027
>>23611701post your garage kits you built
>>23611702No
Based
I don't build any model kits, I don't even buy them. I'm here just to shitpost.
>>23611714join me in backlogfagging. you dont even need to own nippers.
I noticed JL Gunpla cuts his tape directly on his model's surface. Is this a resin only technique? I'm a little worried that I might damage my kit if I tried it on HG scale bandai kits.
>>23611714>>23611718we're all modelers
>>23611727>Is this a resin only technique? No> I'm a little worried that I might damage my kit if I tried it on HG scale bandai kits.Yeah, paint will get damaged, but I think it's supposed to be fine because damage will be hidden after panel lining.
>>23611727I do this with plastic and resin. Just make sure your hobby knife blades are fresh.
>>23611727Speaking of shit like this. If I'm rescribing a kit, am I supposed to scribe diagonally into the corners or run it parallel with the edge?
>>23611599Hey I made it to the OP pic.Anyways, this thing is finally complete, I'll take some better pics under sunlight tomorrow but overall, a lovely kit, terrible assembly process. Everything is fine and dandy with the legs, waist and torso, but once you begin with the arms and head, jesus fuck...Those out there who own this thing and do full paintjobs and shit with it are absoute pros considering all the issues this thing has.As expected, the arm can't hold the weight of the shield at all, you attach the arm conector to the corresponding hole in the forearm and the whole thing falls from the shoulder, so I made a stand for it using leftover parts and connectors from action bases.I went with mica red for the sword but I dunno if there was a problem with the can or something but after spraying the blade some weird textures, bubbles and shit began to appear all over it. Honestly I was fed up at this point so I did not eve bother to sand and try to go all over again with it so whatever
>>23611754I wanna throw a baseball at this
>>23611757Yeah we know you're mentally ill take it here >>23611526
>>23611754I also ditched the cables/tubes for the weapons because they are fucking garbageI don't even have a proper space to display it, it needs quite a bit due to the tail stabilizers and the huge hornOverall, a pretty different experience compared to the usual gunpla, surely the 1/144 kit is better engineered, right?
>>23611705>>23611710troon samefagging craaaaazy
>>23611750Depends on the kit but most of the time parallel, not diagonally
does anyone here have the HG getter dragon? If yes, can you recreate this pose (or something similar to it) ?
>>23611806https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrJqrfVU7gs
>>23611602I finished them, they are going to be part of a with another kit
>>23611820nicebut is it even legal to thin your paints for ma.K kits?
>>23611813thank you.
>>23611820NIce, good work anon.
>>23611602All that's left is polishing these parts.
>>23611879Looking good. Mine is not that clean.
>>23611889The shield trim is kicking my ass. I've had to redo it two times now
>>23611832lol for 1/35 scale I think it's ok to think a little >>23611875thank you :)
>>23611813My god, infinitism is such a dogshit aesthetic
>>23611914*thin a little
>>23611916I for one enjoy the metal diaper
>>23611754>>23611762looks good but fromw hat you and the other guy said about this kit sounds like total hasslehow tall it is including the horn?
>>23611879nice
>>23611936around 36 cm tall, the horn alone is like 9cm long
Thoughts on Iron Toys? I'm interested, but not sure.
>>23611762I did a full paint build of the 1/144 bang doll and of all IMS that I worked on it's the one will the least amount of jank.
>>23611954Cool results. Assembly ranges from ok to kys nightmare. People seem to have very different experiences. I've read reviews that said everything was perfect but on all 3 of my iron toys kits I had troubles. The fits being tight is usually not much of an issue. It becomes a real issue when the metal parts don't fit properly. The decals are nice but also fragile. If you really like the chinkified 00 designs go for it but be ready to fight with the kit at times
>>23611916um... Bandai original designs are kino.
>>23612001More like Toei since they own the copyright to Getter Robo G.
>use topcoat>no noticeable differenceuhhh the can was $8... that's like 6 decent meals... I got scammed hard.
>>23612023Paint the kit. Topcoat is not magic.
>>23612023Topcoat is magic. No need to paint the kit.
>>23612014Infinitism is a Bandai original design
>just spend $1000 on painting supplies bro
>>23611602Yes, unpacking and sorting all this and checking the parts counts as "working on". This is the final batch of the kit being made so I gotta make sure there's nothing missing or lost while it's still possible to get replacements. About 1600 pieces. I am thinking I will panel line it all, then maybe do a very small amount of spot painting on a few details, then decals and call it a day.
>>23612100>Cash TriyaMan, I want this thing. I need more money.
>>23611599No one outruns the ekdromoi
>>23612049You have a point but you can get by with shortcut spray cans for a few kits.
So after 15 years they finally made a non-Kai MG astray mold but it’s locked behind this purple P-Bandai thing?Pleas explain Bandai
>>23611602stickers and dry transfer decals on MG Epyondry transfer always makes me anxious, I can't tell if it's transferred or not. the end result often looks better and more solid than water decals, but very annoying to do properly.
>>23612221That's not the new kit.
>ZackAureloa got an early paid review copy of SNAA PercivalDamn. he's now a full-fledged chinese shill nowBandai = MechaQueerkotsuChina = ChadAurelousPick your side.
>>23612281He reviews every Bandai kit as well and I am sure he'd review them early if they sent him review copies in advance of general release, but they don't do that.
>>23612281>check mgk's latest>says the dspiae joint strengthening pen basically doesn't work>his own viewers tell him in the comments he has to actually let it curei stand with zaku smegmalius
>>23612338>joint strengthening penI just use double tapes or even plastic cement to fix the pose in place.
>>23612049have you tried getting raped and shutting up instead
isn't he like, 40?
>>23612334Bandai only does it for Umi. If you dont have big tits and a cute face, youre basically a nobody to Bandai.
>>23612338You'd think a nail painter would know about letting things cure first
>>23612338Just buy a bottle of Kiki's
>>23612424Based.
>>23612338Isn't mgk known for being zoomer levels of impatient, despite pushing 40? All he ever does is snapshit, fucks up his kits and then blame the kit.
>>23612037Yanase did all of Infinitism designs, inclusing the designs in the Toei movie. This is not the same case with RG kits which were designed by a bunch of faceless Bandai employees.
>>23612451all white youtubers are snapshitter who don't even edit their videos.
>>23612424gotta respect that
>>23612049Why thanks, I would be using it for 3 year minimum.
>>23612023Highly depends on what you used, the price is irrelevant.
>>23612023>he fell for the cuckcoat meme
>>23612023anon what the fuck are you eating
>>23612281>he's now a full-fledged chinese shill nowGOD I WISH THAT WERE ME
>type "megami device" in yt
>>23612730I prefer searching "メガミデバイス"
>>23611714The classic 4chan mantra:>/v/ doesn't play any games>/a/ doesn't watch any anime>/tv/ doesn't watch any shows/ films>/k/ doesn't own any guns or know how to fire guns properly>/fa/ doesn't dress fashionably>/ck/ can't cook and that's why their patron deity is Jacketc
>>23611958cute Kermit X
>>23612715topcoat
>>23612730How come he never smiles like this for gunpla
>>23611570>gunpla girlfriendare you really sure you want this? imagine getting in fights over building and painting techniques...
ABSOLUTE GRUNT SEXOOOOOO
>>23612939>she criticizes your nub cleaning practices >she prefers enamel to lacquer (mild)>she tells you to THIN your paints Sounds awful
she took the kids because I called her a longsnapper...
which would hurt more>she tells her friends you have a micropenis>she tells her friends you are a snapshitter
>>23612978friends already know about #2, i proudly tweet out all my prominent nubmark'd MG progress photos
>>23612978You can improve yourself and stop being a snapshitter though. That's something you can change.
>>23612939yes, sounds lovely and full of passion. We could watch zakuaurelius together while cooking dinner, work together on our backlogs, have hot sex after getting fucked up on paint fumes, work together on a group build and complete it on time and /gpg/ will never know two people worked on a custom.... the possibilities....are endless
>>23611602I've never seen anyone else do a neo zeon gray marasai. I do this because I hate the titans.
>>23613036goes hard.
>*improves your Wing Zero*
>>23613045honestly looks like a Build custom
>>23613057I wish the build series didn't fucking DIE, I really liked how Bandai would reuse older molds and add a few new parts to create something unique, saves them money in a way probably, while also makes things interesting. The best build kit in my opinion was the HG EZ-SR.
>>23613045That thing is so goddamn edgy I can feel my wrists cutting themselves through my computer screen.
>>23613066Perfectly in-line with its pilot then, so lore accurate.
>>23613066Thats the Zero system telling you to kys
>>23613064I wish I could say I'm glad it'd dead. I'd be hard-pressed to name a single Build design that I like.But I would still take Build over 30 Minute Slops and Shitpla.
>>23613045>chinkslop
>>23613036Nice prototype Titans mobile suit you have there.
>>23613113It's actually an abandoned one from after the titans were disbanded and the EFF wanted nothing to do with them.
>>23613082I really wish instead of making dollar store frame arms, bandai developed the builder parts line more and had sets in both 1/144 and 1/100 scales
Can Cross Silhouette frame works on others SD kits or it's only works for SDCS line?
>>23611727How have I never thought of this. I guess im retarded, but il be using that technique from here on out because masking sucks ass
How much would you pay for this?
>>23613344I wouldn't, because that thing looks like crap.
>>23613300i hope me and and thighs anon can hold hands like this one day
>>23613300Is this the salvation that boxhand anon is seeking for? Do we have to start praising Xi for resolving one of the many on-going conflicts here?
>>23612978Wtf, I'm NOT a snapshitter.
>>23612274Yeah, and besides, the old Astray frame was created the same time as this 1/100 NG Mirage Frame over here, which is like a writing on the wall that they plan on making this frame transformable from the start with the extra joints installed around it. The P-Bandai MG Mirage Frame is simply a self-fulfilling prophecy. NOW WHERE'S MY MG SAVIOUR JUST FOR THE VENT SAVIOUR!?Side note, does anyone think that building model kits stave off depression?
>>23612884Because girlpla is cute and Bandai hasn't given us gunpla worth smiling that much over in years
>>23613084Not too much on the Chinamen, I don't see Bandai giving us MGEX Kshatriyas, GP02s, or 1/100 RGs
test
>>23612978>>23613393It's snapCHAD to you. They're the ones confident enough to whip out their gunpla right out the box, they're not vain or insecure enough to put make up on their gunpla and beautify them.
Anyone else ordering this?
>>23613265Not without modifications, no.
>>23613344i would just get the gto grandpa instead and p**nt it red
>>23613527Are GTO and 2.0 built off the same inner frame?
>>23613469
>just finished dry decalingI feel like shit
>>23613469why does he insist on making the joints as retarded as humanly possible
Any anons had their jiu ship out yet?
>>23613128Well, at least its alive. can't said the same for Frame Arms.Hexa and Magalo cannibalize them, No one even talking about that new line Forte Arms i believe
Nips are something else.
>>23613743>that faceIs this supposed to be Relena cosplaying as Zechs?
>>23613753no. Lena.
>>23613757Ooooh
Anyone know good search words for country flag waterslide decals? I want my EFF boys to still have their country flags but I'm having trouble buying them off amazon. I don't have a printer, and all I could find online are really big decals for irl cars and shit.
>>23613821just use water resistant stickers
Lydo Wolf GM Sniper II MG kit gonna get bootleg soon
Just built the RG Hi Nu as my 5th gunpla in one sitting of like 15-16hrs. That wasn't the plan when I started but man everyone isn't kidding saying this build is insane. It's such a shame the inner frame gets covered, the detail on that alone is crazy. Still need to decal but I need to take a break and/or sleep Anyway, what I came to ask is how do you guys not destroy your fingers when using your knife? I didn't cut myself to blood or anything but got hella minor little "cuts" on my thumb from where I push into it
>>23613851You develop calluses
>>23613851>but got hella minor little "cuts" on my thumb from where I push into itSounds like you're holding it/ positioning it wrong.
>>23613858Using your thumb as a backstop is a time honoured tradition of knife use, you just deal with slicing up your thumb a little.
>>23613861doubt.jpg
>>23613857I'm gay
>>23613862Not sure why. You can get a thumb protector or something if you want.
>>23613851I just make an improv thimble with masking tape. or I actually cut myself by accident, superglue it shut and use the glue crust to protect me from further cuts
>>23613857That would make a lot of sense, the rest of my fingers have hard calluses from playing guitar but just not my thumb! >>23613866>>23613868I was thinking about something like that but at the same time with small parts it seems like it's be more of an inconvenience.Isn't a massive bother but just thought maybe I am being retarded and pushing too hard but if its common then I'll just stick it out!
>>23613870Proper hobby knives are really sharp so even with good control you'll still microslice your thumb here and there. You could adopt a different stance and use the knife far less precisely but I wouldn't recommend it. Controlled cuts using your thumb have served me well for 25 years.
>>23613866Or you can just... not position it that way.
>>23613873It's nicer to control. There's a reason it's a common grip for whittling (and they sell thumbguards specifically for it).
SOLD
What do you do with all the weapons and excess hands you don't need for posing?
>>23613923I put every accessory a kit comes with into a labelled bag for it and throw it in a plastic bin
>>23613851>split vent covers
>>23613739>Well, at least its aliveAnd that's a real shame.
>>23613469Gothicmades look so damn ugly
>>23613954this one does
Just snapped the sazabi ver ka. excellent kit. I ordered some resin parts and am going to try to sneak it in for painting before it gets too cold to leave my window open. I'll resume with the dijeh for now, I took a break from it to finish reading some stuff
>>23613884Ebikawa is like a verse Katoki. You like the design at first and then grew to hate it.
>>23611599Isn’t “gunpla/plamo” a stupid sounding and unnecessary abbreviation? Because it sounds really stupid.
>>23613980No.
>>23613980Are you even interested in modelkits or just be here to act like a language expert?
>>23613980Shut up
>>23611599five star kinos
>>23613980yeah might as well just call it the plamo thread
>>23614000"Gunpla" is there for legalization because the concept of plastic model alone is not exclusively mecha or kaiju thus not on-topic.
>>23614008Gunpla is there because these threads are largely about gunpla and owe their existence as a permanent general to Build Fighters. Most people are here for the Gundams.
>>23613980Anta baka?
shorten the deadline
>>23613884How much?
What happened to prices I remember the good model cost like 40 euros year ago now they go for 70. wtf?
>>23614011>Most people are here for the Gundams.Faggots are not people.
>>23611645SEAspeak
>>23614117Worm is a common insult
>>23612730That 3rd kit, little red, is really good. Smart usage of parts which transform in to various accessories.
>>23614089Yes, most of us are here for Unkosol.
>>23614188Only retards can't realise that Unkosol is actually Unkosovl
>>23614063Have you guys never taken a basic economics class? Prices go up. This is the system we made. Until a big enough meteor/earthquake/disease/war hits us it's gonna be like this forever.
unko is the plamo /gpg/ deserve but not the one it needs right now
>>23614205Talk about kits no one asked for, Bandai is bringing back Keroro kits.
>>23614214After so many years defending Bandai, this thread needs it imo.
>>23614214What is the plamo /gpg/ needs?
>>23614216Don't you fucking talk shit about Sarge
>>23614216That's incredibly based tho. Everyone was secretely waiting for it.
sunlight picsmerely moving this guy from one place to another is a pain (have to remove and reattach the shield, 1 or 2 tail stabilizers fall off, hard to balance...)
>>23614230it is a shme the eyes are barely visible, you can't even notice them unless you are looking at the kit upwards from a lower angle
>>23614223volks 1/72 msa-120
>>23614231
>>23614235
>>23614216I though Keroro and Bandai parted ways and Keroro is in bed with Takara?
>>23614240iirc they've since mended ways ahead of the new anime, last big hobby show type thing had new keropla imminent?
>>23614240Sunrise has copyright to the anime.
>>23614235>>23614237the sun shining through the plastic loos really bad, this is just topcoated instead of painted right?
>>23611879Moving on from this now. What one should I do?Left has a small copper highlight added before blending the shading
>>23614247yesthe blue plastic is very thin in some parts, like the spikes coming out from the head or the stabilizers. It is also very fragile so you can easily break it if you are not careful
>>23613821>country flagsmost commonly used by mil model autists, so try using keywords like "livery" this was one of the first google results for "national livery waterslide decals". might be harder to find countries that aren't ww2 related though
Do you guys wash your parts before painting?I usually do it in the sonic cleaner after sanding, but I don't feel it actually does anything that brushing off or blasting it with air wouldn't just as well
>>23614301If I did a lot to the part like scribing/sanding then yes
>>23613943Wait which, on the waist unit? That's the only one I noticed unless I'm blind but it was like that on the runner so wasn't much I could do about it unfortunately...
>>23614301for chinese kits I stick them in the ultra sonic cleaner with some soap because I'm more weary of release agents but for bandai parts I tend to just brush off any sanding dust with a brush and call it good
>>23614301nothe only time i ever bothered was the volks vsms daccas because the clear runners were slathered in a thick layer of grease. even on that i didn't bother washing the non-clear parts
Dude, I love /gpg/ Yall are lovingly toxic in your own way, but there is a sense of actual community in here for the most part. Why is every single fucking gunpla community outside of here just toxic, annoying assholes who want to shit on everything. I'll see someone get shit on, see shitters post history and it's the shittiest fucking nubby snapbuild. Talking about :>"Erm, I think you should practice your scribing and panel-lining"So many dog-shit communities. OR they're too nice, I've seen 'advanced' gunpla communities where the most dogshit build will also get posted and they'll go:>"Wow, cool! No notes, literally perfect build!"In all that is zeon, what the fuck are you talking about? this is supposed to be for advanced gunpla. This is the perfect mix of anonymous people with nothing to lose and nothing tied to them. Theres some filtering to do for sure, but mostly /gpg/ gets it right.
>>23614301Only time I did was on a revell kit.Modern kits are pretty retardproof even on that front.
>>23614344>Why is every single fucking gunpla community outside of here just toxic, annoying assholes who want to shit on everything.There's no way you're serious.
>>23614344I kinda wanna agree with you, but that'll tank my cred so I'll just call you a massive faggot
>>23614344>Why is every single fucking gunpla community outside of here just toxic, annoying assholes who want to shit on everything.>outside of hereYou might have a point if you posted this on /toy/, but, lmao.
>>23614344>Why is every single fucking gunpla community outside of here just toxic, annoying assholes who want to shit on everything
>>23614344I have no cred to tank so I'll agree with you.I was talking about that to a friend the other day actually, about how it's surprisingly a good place for growth. You're going to be talked shit about but most of the regular anons are autistic enough to actually know what they're doing and what you're doing wrong, instead of being like "wowie you did the absolute bare fucking minimum". Like I can tell that comments I've had, shittalk typically came from a place of "do it fucking properly instead of being sloppy to get your action figure quicker" rather than just being retarded contrarians like on so many boards.There is a decent amount of people to filter tho, between the various schizos and the reddit/twitter shitstirrers that I'm suspecting of being /pol/tards and schizos who are obsessed with specific subjects and/or believe themselves to be stars whose opinion is absolute.But yeah. I'd rather ask a niche question here, be called a faggot and get an answer from a certified autist that knows what he's talking about than post on reddit and get forced asspats for the sloppiest out of box build ever.
>>23614344I think you got the wrong place, retard.
>>23614344
>reddit copypasta with some editsno reading all that shit
>>23612730That's literally what I did, he was the only English speaker reviewing or talking about them when they came out. That aside, nobody does more thorough reviews (to the point that it's a bit much sometimes). He paints a lot and does GBWC entries btw. He did a pretty slick MGSD Barbatos. In somewhat related news have you guys built the MGSD kits? Or are they SDMG? Either way.
>>23614449amazing build, goddamn this is GBWC tier! you have talent, partner!
>>23614344I love /gpg/, every one of you. You guys are my family :)
>>23612939Does a gunpla wife count? 25 years The hell is she always wants the coolest looking, biggest box with the fanciest model in it then never wants to finish them. So I have half-built version Ka kits and stuff sitting here taking up space. >>23612985based>>23613036I like unrepentantly evil looking mecha.>>23613300MOOOOOOOOOOOOODS
>>23614344I hate /gpg/, every one of you. You guys are retards :)
>>23614216Day one purchase.
>>23614449such a kino longsnap...
>>23614463joesgunplagarage reviews are more autistically thorough
>>23614505They aren't, he just drones longer.
>>23614474get that wife some amphetamines
>>23614344on one hand, I appreciate anons on here will be brutally honest with criticism, which also makes the honest praise all the more genuine.on the other hand, there's a very real possibility the criticism is coming from some shitposter who's never so much as sniffed a paint in their life but watched a couple warhammer tutorials and is acting like an authority. that being said I'll still take this place over a fake-nice hugbox any day
>>23614511>some shitposter who's never so much as sniffed a paint in their life but watched a couple warhammer tutorials and is acting like an authorityThis used to be me BUT I have gotten shit done eventually and the social media shitpost knowledge did help at the end of the day.
>>23614479Okay buddy, real fuckin funny. Don't you EVER twist my words like that again bud, I'll fucking spray you with my Grex. You're gonna make me use a trip so no one ever mistakes me for you Mr. I'm the second best builder in /gpg/ don't frickin make fun of me again.
Is it okay if I shitpost just a little bit if I also post my work and give people advice and comments on their work?
>>23614344It's better than Reddit, but it obviously has its downsides like retards and irrelevant advice (Sponge painting lmao). The scale model general on /toy/ is pretty good for real pro tips though.
>>23613821Find pics of the flags you want and laser copy them onto decal paper. It's easier than you think, but most copiers can't print white.This is a bit of the graphic I made for the G Gundam Groupbuild contest awhile back. You only get one shot, but you have 8.5 x 11 inches to play with, so copy paste everything in different sizes and colours and see whatever works best on the model. The graphics were the hard part. The printing took a few seconds.
>>23614522you sound like a pansyhold him lads

>funko pops of wing gundams shelf warmingits over
>>23614559The fact that the company is on the verge of going bankrupt, warms my heart to no end.
>>23614508He's a better reviewer, just compare their vids about "MG" Kshatriya. Zak's review is utterly useless
>>23614562Your eceleb cheerleading is real faggy and you watch a redheaded neckbeard redditor. That said, the other guy did 6 or 7 videos about that model with the entire build process. There's no comparison. The redditor did panel lining on his though at least.
>>23614344>outside of hereso you're saying I should step my game up
FILTHY DUMB, REDDIT SCUMBTHERE SHOULD BE SEPARATE DRINKING FOUNTAINS FOR REDDITORS
>>23614569Yes, or better yet they should be put into camps. Anyhoo what are you workin' on, sempai?
>>23614344So other communities are too toxic, r*ddit is too nice, but /gpg/ is just the right amount of toxic? The same /gpg/ that constantly bitches about longsnaps, chinkslop, bandai slop, and muh lineart while simultaneously never posting painted builds? At least the r*ddit has a steady output of nice painted builds. /gpg/ has less than one completed build per thread.
>>23614565>Your eceleb cheerleading is real faggy and you watch a redheaded neckbeard redditorDude, your meds?>That said, the other guy did 6 or 7 videos about that model with the entire build processI'm not watching some retard's 20-hour build video. If he can't provide same info that he said there then he can fuck off
>>23614214it is not plamo it is shitmowash your mouth out with soap.
>>23614493it's a mediumsnap at best.
>>23614559funko as a whole is nearly bankrupt. maybe bandai can buy them for cheap and roll them into the unko line
>>23614614Anon, it always was unko. It's in the name.
Funkosul. . .
working at the second factory must be the chillest job in the world

>>23614679everyone already forgot about this
>>23614684it isn't even out yet besides that one ultra limited pbandai prerelease of like 4 minis
I need you to make a very important decision for me /gpg/. I am trying a new painting technique on my groupbuild that I am entirely unfamiliar with. Should I practice on a spoon first or raw dog it and test it straight on the model?
>>23614689you need a sacrificial HG
>>23614689Rawdog it on a sacrificial model. Spoons are for weaklings and don't account for angles and weird shapes.
>>23614689balls to the wall kyodai
>>23614722Thank you for the sage advice anon. You are, of course, right. The technique btw? slathering your kit in super glue
>>23614729Watch out for fingerprints!
>>23614741That's just free texture.
group build deadline extension onegai
>>23614767You know the rules. Put up or shut up.
>>23614767you still have 3 weeks
>>23614767i finished mineeveryone who didnt should be disqualified
>>23611602Kewl
>>23614686It's 6, but they already announce another 6 will came out
>>23614769thigh pics?
>>23614820No, WIP pics. You'll need them to extend the groupbuild's end date. Otherwise times waits not for you.
>didn't really care for the Obsolete model kit line>watch this episode where the cartel bot slaughters a bunch of right wing militiaHoly BASED I will now buy your model kit, Bandai
>>23615027No you wont
>>23614689I can't believe every single anon who replied to me tried to mislead me by telling me to go straight to trying this on my groupbuild. Thank god I used my incredible intelligence to ignore their temptations and practiced on a spoon first, because this came out like hot dog shit. I'll try again tomorrow, but please anons, no more trying to sabotage me.

>>23615124Paint doesnt make these stop looking like shit
>>23615129damn he didn't deserve to get bodied that hard, let a nibba waste his money if he wants, i just wish they'd make a "bionicle for autists" thread for them because they blab more than post wip
>>23615124disgusting.remove the nubs first, then it'll be perfect
>>23615124weathering the white parts to look like bone would be pretty cool
>>23615150Throw in florescent paint for the transparent bits.It'll look pretty otherworldly and spooky.
>>23615143>bionicle for autistsSo, Gunpla.
>>23615225That crap is aesthetically far more "bionicle" than Gundams tend to be. Maybe IBO a little, but even still they have more to them.
>>23615229I'm not talking about the aesthetic. Bionicle is a sub product line of Lego and plays like lego. Gunpla has that assembling toy appeal and the fanbase is full of subhuman faggots. I hope gundam as whole dies and the monkeys who support this crap to kill themselves.
>>23614257I like left more.
>>23615241Your opinion as a gunpla hater showing us how rent free it is in your head hanging out in a gunpla thread uh, well it's not worth the toilet paper it was wiped on, brother.
>>23615184perfect, would look sick under a blacklight
>>23615249Static kits with fixed pose >>> Gunpla.
>>23615249>rent freeSays the monkey shitting himself any time FSS is mentioned
>>23615027Gayest post in this thread
>>23615241>I hope gundam as whole diesSEAfags (mostly Filipino) unironically want that so they can prop up their shitty bootlegs and Chinesium slop. They make up 95% of this thread anyway.
>>23615129Right, he should paint it to look like literal shit instead.
>>23615281why can't they just be satisfied with the 6 million SEAd kit releases every year?
>>23615284so this is why bandai makes poopla now...

>>23615124>so retarded that he posts something shitting on FSS just so that his fellow retards shit on him thinking he supports itSeeing you fags get mad at your own bait is glorious
>>23615281But chinkpla needs legitpla to copy plus use as blueprints to make their own OCs.
>>23615288DEEPEST LOREPoopla is just /gpg/ manifesting upon reality their autism and schizo melty all along.

>>23615320Poopla is the culmination of our desire to own a brown manual diesel wagon.
I have a few in-progress paint projects but I feel like building tonight. Which project do I start?
>>23615348Demi Barding is cute, so I say pick that.
>>23615348build all of the 30ms option sets but none of the actual kits to equip them onto
>>23615348build a gyoubu kino
>>23615349it's the demi trainer, the demi barding is a slightly different design that only appears for a few minutes on screen in the show. The drone backpack is pretty cool I'll admit, but I still can't help but wonder if the design exists purely to sell another kit.>>23615366should I watch IBO before building the kits? I haven't seen it yet and bought the kits because they looked fun to paint.
>/gpg/ will gaslight you into believing that left is better in every way possible.
>>23615348Rishetta with the vidar armor parts.
>>23615381fatter
>>23615381I love the build on the right, could use a tiny bit more effort for the bare plastic. The bright silver elbow is also a bit of an eyesore but I think joint color are more of an opinion than any real critique. I also think a minor critique is that the panel lining is fine but some places panel lining fill was used instead of paint for larger details, which doesn't look as good as just painting, ontop of that it has enough topcoat in there to be glossy. The point of the dark paint in these spots is to give the impression of lack of light, which is destroyed by the gloss shine within.
>>23611754>>23611762Great job! The cable attachments are ridicolous, especially on the sword which is visibile. Fortunately on later kits they made proper attachments, or at least Vaiola has plugs for its shoulder cables.
what's the super spooky paint solvent that will poison you long before you smell it?
>>23615512nice try, glowie
>didnt plant to do the groupbuild because its a hard theme>see a cool 30mm kit that would be pretty easy to turn into a biomecha>zero chance it will arrive on timeOh well. There's always next time.

>>23615533The zaku is cute tho
>>23615591It took them long enough to come out with a truly interesting 30mf kit

I love how the Japs can just pretend a 1/60 Devil Gundam kit from Bandai already existed. They are indeed living in a different dimension.
>>23615731When I thought the japs couldn't get lower than eating up Gcucks slop...
>>23615731What the fuck are you talking about, monkey
>>23615737Oonga oonga bunga!
>>23615736Most of Jap's manga/anime are trash, too. They are always this low. They were blessed with artistic talent and cursed with every terrible things in this world.
What drives people to just keep saying the same things and trying to prompt the same bullshit thread after thread?What brand of mental illness is this? Is it just incredible loneliness? I don't understand.
>>23611602Now he's got leg cables. I wound up using leftover ones from a MaK kit but I don't know if I'm going to weather this guy to quite that degree.

>>23615731lol
>>23615782I say its much worse then discord, since here people can easily hide in anonymity.
>>23615791Then why are you posting as an anon?
>>23615778Definitely virus. Never been fond of the vaccine version.
>>23615783pro-bono plamo narc
>>23615731>>23615783This isn't a JP thing, it's more a twitter thing. I've unfortunately seen this sort of corpo dicksucking narc behaviors non Japanese media/ fanbase as well. Twitter fags are a special breed of bootlickers.
>>23615806>This isn't a JP thing,yes it is, they love getting fucked by Samurai
to play devil's advocate, some of it could stem from larger anti-chink rhetoric since some high ranking chink politician revently tweeted that japan's new pm needs to be beheaded
>>23615815>high ranking chink politician revently tweeted that japan's new pm needs to be beheadedI think it's just general hostile history between japs and chinks rather than some specific case
>https://schizophonic9.com/re9/100_dahgiiris.htmlThe sculpts on these old F91 kits are really fucking good considering it's from the early 90s.
>>23615783I'm becoming somewhat concerned now. Did bandai get taken over by indians? While the chinese are doing what bandon't, bandai is releasing - well, you know.
>>23615838
>>23615838China even did a MG Moon Gundam
>>23615591where is his dick
>>23615832The problem comes from how Bandai has complete monopoly over Gunpla. The Changs are more than willing to have official liscence since they can freely do whatever they want without the risk of going to jail.
>>23615348grow up and buy some uc kits
>>23615838The problem started when Pbandai became a thing and gunpla had a massive boom during the 2010s. They realized that Gunpla has grown so huge and nolonger have to try to sustain itself. If the customers get angry with shitpla and OCs no one asked for, they will make kits for some random niche robots from an old forgotten MSV, throw them in the Pbandai garbage bin and customers are happy again.
>>23615845reptiles have cloaca, not dicks
>>23615858Damned if you do, damned if you don't for us. We buy the good products and it just incentivizes bandai to make more garbage. We don't buy them and our lives quite literally pass by us in real time as we grow old and tired - then bandai finally decides to re-issue something.
>>23615815You can just look at their posting history. Many of them already have strong right wing views. They're even blaming Americans for getting preferential treatment simply because there are stock remaining in their P-Bandai store.
>>23615838Bandai in the last decade have been trying to expand their hobby division with new IPs. Kyokai Senki, Girls Gun Lady, 30 Minutes Label and now Unkosul Days (Shitpla) and all of these new IPs are horribly mismanaged. GGL is supposed to be a girlpla line featuring cute anime girls, yet its promotional material is a tokusatsu show with real people, how does that even work? Kyokai Senki is a blunder all around and 30ML is just a bunch of OCs with a handful of liscenced characters thrown in to keep the brand alive. Unkosul is the culmination of previous failures: a cheap, poorly made line of product with an aesthetic appeals to no one and no source material because Bandai can't waste millions of dollar on another dogshit tv show no one likes.
>>23615843you're delusional if you think that chinkshit look anything remotely close to moon gundam
>>23615868Male reptile have 2 penises.
>>23615888Moon Gundam is just a Gundamized Sazabi with shitload of greebles. It is not that special.
>>23615843If it didn't have the crescent funnela it would be unrecognizable as the moon gundam, looks more 00 inspired
>>23615888???
>>23615888It's different enough to be its own thing but it's obviously designed to resemble the Moon Gundam
>>23615843They got Katoki in my Gyoubu!
>>23615935Looks more like Yanase to me
>>23615124I will never understand why these things make you guys so mad. Is because you cant afford them? Reminds me of how some people on /fa/ really hate expensive watches. Personally I think theyre just bracelets for men but Im not gonna throw an autistic fit over them the way you guys do over FSS
>>23615946FSS is disrespectful to decades of mecha design tradition and harmful to the overall genre by chasing trends and trying to be "high fashion" while sneering at everything else as kiddy bullshit.
FSS is the JoJo of mecha.
>>23615949lmao what the fuck
>>23615949TVRKE
>>23615961that'snot the image i wanted to attach but it works
>>23615949Absolutely retarded take. Name one fucking person who says this other than the imaginary strawman who lives in your head and only exists to make you mad.Literally everyone ITT who builds FSS/GTMs also builds other mecha unlike you who probably only builds gundam models
Wait, I'm a lizard the entire time!?
>>23615961Putting jewish-owned buildings in the background of a white supremacist meme has got to be one of the unintentionally funniest things you people couldve done. Everything you do is comedic, especially when youre being serious.
>>23615970He probably just googled 'city skyline' and used a random image without knowing what it is. I doubt he put any thought into it.
>>23615905I keep forgetting that changsloppers are blind retards
>>23615987They improved Gay Boo's design. which isn't saying much though.
>>23615848It's going to be so funny when this is better thaan the MODEROID version.
>>23615954What did he mean by this
>>23615848>Bandai owns the Gundam IP through Sunrise.>Surprised that they have complete monopoly over it.Maybe if the Changs actually put in the time to create some mecha series that rivals Gundam, but they really don't have that ability at all. Everything they make is soulless slop.
>>23616021Yikes no.
progress on my seapig with a custom thruster backpack
>>23616067It looks very marshmallow-y anon...
>>23616067Thin your paints
>>23616067
>>23616076Would eat the chocolate bits and leave the rest in the fridge for a week
>>23616072>>23616082pls im new to scalemodelling you cant do me like this. i used a sponge application to texture with off-white but i guess i should have thinned the paint more
>>23616092I'm just joking, the texture's fine. But those thrusters do look a bit too thick
>>23615890But they’re retractable so you wouldn’t see it when he’s just chillin
>>23616031You know what it means
I just bought rx-78-2 gunpla less than 2 hours ago at hobby lobby, my first one an I loved it, they have a 40% sale right now, Friday I’m gonna buy 2 more, a little more advanced.Imma lurk more to learn a little but I really liked putting it together
>>23615946I don't hate FSS as whole, i just hate how it went from beautiful and stylish Mortar Headd to the ugly Gothicmade. It feels both jarring and tragic at the same.
>>23616036The Changs have a handful of mecha adjacent games with potential. They don't need to mimic the history of Gundam brand.
>>23616122Mecha break global empire soon, trust the plan
>>23616036Most of other mecha brands don't have that kind of monopoly, only Bandai. And even Bandai themselves have bunch of liscenced kits, this is just pure hypocrisy.
>>23616126That's because bandai is willing to pay for those licenses instead of just stealing.
>>23616123They sort of achieve something with Azur Lane, only to fuck it up with softcore porn and put Cockwasher on board to ruin it further with his dogshit art.
You hate Bandai so much but you can't stop snorting the Bandai plastic crack.
>>23616130But when other companies want to buy the liscence, all they see is a locked door. They don't liscence gunpla to 3rd party.
>>23616136I prefer Kaiyodo
>>23616144Then go to /toy/
>>23616140Kotobukiya has plenty of licensed products.
>>23616147bizarre post
>>23616140>They (bandai) don't liscence gunpla to 3rd partyI suspect that this is because they don't want what Chang is doing right now with all these highly requested kits being put out. Chang beat bandai to the Perfect Grade Nu. Chang upscaled a bunch of RGs to 1/100 (not perfectly admittedly). Chang made an MG out of the Re/100 Jagd Doga that bandai lazily and sloppily put out, Chang made an MG Kshtriay which bandai shills say is impossible, and now a 1/144 of the Quin Mantha? Bandai has had decades to do some of this stuff and they just refuse. I know it's stealing, copy right infringement, IP theft, etc. A part of me does believe in the copyright holder getting protected, but bandai's malice is starting to irk me so I'm losing that viewpoint in their favor.
>>23616150weird post.
>>23616092>i guess i should have thinned the paint moreYes. It's a laborious task but multiple thin coats is the way to go.>>23616116You're going to learn nothing from lurking these threads. Youtube/scale modelling forums have all the info you need. If you're just snapping the kits together then there's especially nothing to gain from these threads.
>>23615949This is somehow even more pathetic than the poopoo gritty gm screencap, you've outdone yourself anon.
>>23616152>bandai's malice>BANDAI IS NOT MAKING WHAT I WANT SO THEY ARE MALICIOUS!Lmao. This is some true schizo post.
>>23615853when there is a hg revive for the rick diaz sure
>Bootleg sloppers keep on reeling over PB prices>Meanwhile take a look into warhammer.It could be a whole lot worse.
>>23616152I gave Bandai benefit of the doubt and even defended them at one point, but it is hard to do so nowadays. I'm not ask them to read my mind and make exactly what i want, i just expect something cool to look at and buy one if the design really suits my taste. But no, they would rather churn out 12 more 30 Minutes kits, One Piece ships and Poop.
>>23616175whataboutism
>>23616178Is it wrong tho?
>G-Self pack set is still available for pre-order here in P-Bandai PH shophonestly I'm really tempted to bite but having to weld the leg seam and re-doing all those blue masking don't spark joy
>>23616180just because the brits get away with robbery doesn't make pbandai ok
>>23616175I see we are on the soviet russia defense now>Comrade, bandai is putting out crap lately ,but at least we're not as bad as the other guy !
>>23616168NTA but Bandai's monopoly over the gunpla market, artificial scarcity and a complete hostility toward retailers by making them sell shitpla, this company is anything but "good".
>>23616147Kaiyodo still makes plastic models retard
>>23616175>amerimutts all smug with their p-bandai store>suddenly they gotta pay like an extra 10 bucks on their peebs slop>meanwhile us Leafs have to pay twice, sometimes three times the amount for P-bandai through jumping various hoops and middlemen services or buying locally from scalpersI never understood the outrage, you fucks still are paying way less than your neighbors up north.
>>23616193>amerimutts all smug with their p-bandai storeWhat fucking universe do you live in? We've been complaining about pbandai US since its inception.
>>23616192Does it even count when their models are shit?
>>23616183It's far better than the shit that most western companies pull off.
>>23616197Post your Kaiyodo collection.
>>23616200Sorry I don't buy shit.
>>23616201>Don't buy shitWhat's with the Bandai hate?
>>23616202Looks far better than anything Kaiyodo.
>>23616201Based Unkosul hater
>>23616161Lol ok, I did get some channels recommended on YouTube shorts, I’ll lurk to get some recommendations but I’ll keep that in mind
>>23616202The chinese are already trying to find a way to make bootleg doodoo fecespla
>>23616192Kaiyodo should let Yamaguchi design a plastic model

>>23615727They stole all of my nigga's intelligence.

>>23616269Well, original Acguy has iron claw too
>>23616244Would be even funnier if they somehow make a knockoff design and it looks good.
>>23616175To be fair the UK is in collapse. Just look at them sending this website giant unenforceable fines like North Korea. Br*tish mecha kits are probably bartered for their weight in potatoes rather than actually bought.
>>23616272Acguy can hide the worm arms and claws, unlike Zgok. Aggjin seems to lost that function.
>>23616280why do greebled up acerbys somehow always look good
Local shop got in an MG Gouf Custom and I'm considering it. Is this thing actually as bad as people try and make it out to be?
>>23616378it's pretty dated but the main thing is it can't hold up its own gun shield
I'm building the Luka's Strike E + IWSP and it's my first time applying decals. Given it's an old kit, I'm not sure what types these are.The ever-unreliable Google Lens tells me that the white sheet are decals and the blue one are stickers, though they don't look like the ones I saw from recent kits.Can you guys tell me how to apply those pls?
>>23616379Eh, I'll just get an MG Gouf 2.0 online instead.
>Need expensive watch batteries to light up the Chinese Kshatriya.Why? Why not put the electronics in the base and have it plug in like a lamp, and then power the LEDs over Bluetooth or wifi or something?
>>23616423>power the LEDs over Bluetooth or wifi or something?Stop eating paint
>>23616423tbqh not playable. very unfun suggestiontrue modders would just mod the power source to work on USB when needed or use battery adapters>>23616427its a thing, https://pt.aliexpress.com/item/1005007552784399.htmlconsidered it myself, but my gunpla shelves are glass.
>>23616431Is that powered by wifi? I wasn't aware that wifi and bluetooth were capable of carrying electricity.
here's your "legally not a gyan", the Sheik Mainland Actaeonhttps://x.com/KRW_KRW_KRW/status/1987859450338881744
>>23616443of course it can, how do you think the government keeps all those spy pigeons in the air?
>>23616381left is dry decal, right is sticker
>>23616445already looks better than G-Keks Gyan
>>23616445>legally not a GyanKek, but also I like it so far. The shoes are a bit small though.
>>23616423Because then you do something like me, and break your PG Exia LEDs when you accidentally move a joint wrong/too far.MGEX Unicorn also has that issue, not sure about the PG ver.
>>23616445Isn't Gyan just a mechanized medieval knight?
>>23616454Sheik seems to have a thing about tiny feetThe original Zarov also has really narrow feet, so much so the newer version has new feet parts designed to be more stable>>23616481yesbut honestly this Actaeon doesn't look like any gyan other than the Gquack one, and even then the resemblance isn't that direct, but more of a "oh this popular Thing X looks like Real World Thing A, so let's make our own Thing Y that also looks like Thing A"
>>23616485>seems to have a thing about tiny feetI just want them to match the robot in question. Not giant clown shoes and not dainty damsels. Everything within reason and to match the overall design. Added stability is a bonus.
>>23616485It looks like Heindree from that lesbian show. The lance looks like Michaelis's Drill Javelin.
>>23616485>a thing about tiny feetthat's just china in general, look up chinese footbindingi assume that's also why bandai's modern proportions make feet much smaller than they are in linearts/the shows/old kits, to appeal more to the chinese market
>>23616485>The original Zarov also has really narrow feet, so much so the newer version has new feet parts designed to be more stableCan you post comparisons? Looks the same to me.
EW is releasing a modular sniper rifle. Looks like a MS PTRS-41.
>>23616445>Michaelis + GyanGenius
>>23616445
Can also make it look like GM Sniper's rifle but with more tidbits attached.
>>23616532>Bipod on barrelAIEEEEEE
>>23616526The recolors use 1.0 feet. They are making "Zarov Cannon" with bigger feet to improve stability. There is a Red Shoulder custom with improved feet too, but that kit seems to be canceled or stuck in development hell.
>>23615512>>23615677you might be thinking of "2k clear" which yes is a 2-part polyurethane epoxy
>>23616558
The thread is devolving into foot fetish discussion. I'm noticing!
>>23616532>>23616538looks nice but that's not the sniper that I wantanyone know if this sniper rifle is available in 1/144 or 1/100?
>A 60 feet tall mecha needing a bipod for its weapon.I will never understand this.
>>23616625a 60 feet tall mecha doesn't even need hands
>>23616629not unless its designed for construction work.
>>23616558The Red Shoulder doesn't exist as a separate kit. They sell it as an upgrade pack for the Zarov, like the flight pack for the not-dragonar.
>>23616641>the flight pack for the not-dragonaryou have a link? I saw a few times on Ali but I could never find it again
>>23615949It's ok anon, I understood the joke even if the other posters didn't.
>>23616629Or legs
>>23616584kitbash it
would he have won if he was piloting a Jeddah?
>>23616672badshee had plot armor, he needed some from amuro
>>23616651I honestly haven't seen it in a long time. I recall it had some extra weapons but that was all. I have also not seen it again.But the base kit comes with wings and a flight pack, so it doesn't end up feeling incomplete at all. The same goes for the Zarov's red shoulder pack, the actual parts aren't that unique, you can achieve the same look with just paint.
>>23616685>I recall it had some extra weapons but that was allthen it's not the one I'm thinking aboutit had extra thrusters and I think a second set of wings
>>23616651Both Red Shoulder and Not-Dragonar set are unreleashed, they probably canceled it.
So CHINA is releasing a chink'up Qubeley that comes with the cool rifle Bandai never made.
>MG 00 Raiser at Hobby Lobby>$56 after discountI was very tempted, but my willpower remains unbroken.
>>236166991/100 Nahatgall when?
>>23616699Chink kits are basically what Gundam live action would look like if made by Michael Bay.
>>23616697yeah this is definitely not what I'm thinking aboutgoddamn man why does the Ali search engine suck so fucking much
>>23616699Seems considerably less chinked up than most, if only it wasn't a mobile suit for ants
>>23616699
groupbuild admissions are now closed thank you to all participants
>>23616737isn't the groupbuild submission deadline end of november ish?
>>23616739welcome to the real world jackass
>>23616739This is true. I looked it up. It's all true.
>>23611602Couldn't find a green LED so I put in a blue one.
>>23616764Holy shit, that looks really cool.> blue one.Actually looks better, I think
has anyone ever painted the nu ver ka with the psychoframe bits as steel frame parts or have a picture of one
>>23616706chinks would ruin it
>>23616780Without LED, you can barely see it.
>>23616706I always forget the name of it, but what is that white robot that bandai isn't allowed to make model kits of? Maybe Chang will tackle that soon.
>>23616780Stolen from a Jap
>>23616791Brain Powered?
I'm building this guy, it's really good
>>23616798Ah no, I'm sorry I did a bad job of describing it. Gaia Gear. I'm glad I'm just dumb enough to remember to save bookmarks.
>>23616532that's just the gundam builder's parts system weapon 004 rifle. nothing new. captcha: ZOG 8K
>>23616712You mean this Not-Dragonar?
>>23616175Not one to defend GW's bullshit pricing, but you're using a fuckhuge block of resin that weighs like 5 pounds and doesn't even come with arms as your example. A closer example would be comparing a Knight to a HG since they're about the same size and plastic quantity
Has any 3rd party made a copy of bandai's system weapon 3?
>>23616469Nah, you don't put any wires in the kit itself, just the LEDs.
>>23616445I'm glad they didn't go with the mohawk from the prototype
Wake up, babe. It's time for your new Piss Bandai exclusive moulds.
>>23616969months ago i wouldve popped a vein about the grieppe being peeb but when it was announced i felt nothingat some point when a company is so hostile to me buying stuff and a license is mismanaged for so long i just move on
>>23616969Can't wait for F90IIIX
>>23611602Decals are done. I am learning to not ruin everything with the mark softer. The rank looks a lot better for it.
>>23617023Not Zaku™ designs are so good.
>>23617026I think it's more like a not gouf.
>>23616790>>23616794i think i'll be doing this for mine then
Snapping the sazabi ver ka. killed all my motivation for my current projects (RE/100 Dijeh and MG Hyaku Shiki). I feel like I need to paint this thing now
>>23617052It's an exhausting paint project.
>>23617023Looking really good.
>>23616969Please give us Silhouette Formula MGs
>>23615843it is ugly compared to the hg however. not even because of greebles
>>23615751>What drives people to just keep saying the same things and trying to prompt the same bullshit thread after thread?too many of their formative years spent on /v/ probably. there are always new anons in those threads ready to fall for the same bait anon posted 100 times before
>>23615751The NPC meme is real.
>>23617142Silly Kai, my beloved...
>>23617054when I paint MGs, I usually paint the innerframe to completion before doing the outer armor so I'm not juggling too many things. I'm also planning to pattern the reds differently so I'm going to try out one of those precut masking tape sets, just to see if they're worth it for future builds. Also grabbed a small resin kit with some parts for that gap under the shoulders. It'll take a bit for them to come in the mail so I'm going to finish customizing the dijeh and paint that in the meantime.
>>23616826where do you get these?
>>23616849no it was parts for the Shrek Mainland Skylarkanother set of thrusters and wings
>>23617288they're gundam base exclusives but pop up on p bandai a couple times a year
>>23616826Do the chinese not do these sort of parts/ extra weapons thingy? Seems like a good opportunity since legit bandai DLCs can cost as much as an Entry Grade kit while being you know, just a bunch of weapons.
>>23617314Effect Wing made those kind of kits, but they are very selective. They made bootlegs for Sturm Und Drang upgrade set and HWS for Nu/Hi Nu.
should I buy bootleg gogg decals for $2who is flamingsnow bootlegging here and do they have any actual sample pics?
>>23617332I've never bought that specific brand, but other 3rd party chink decals I've purchased have worked out fine so far.
>>23617332they're one of those medium quality ones, shouldn't be that bad
>>23617332they're ok, print quality isn't the greatest but i found them significantly easier to work with compared to bandai's own decals. for $2 i dont think you're going to find anything else, especially for those specific ms.
>>23616381>dry transfershold them in place with scotch tape or similar and then rub the back of the decal sheet until it transfers completely to the plastic. of course top coating is mandatory or it'll easily rub off
>>23617273Different anon, but how does one actually go about painting an inner frame? I've hesitated to do mines since I'm scared that the moving joints will rub off the paint at the contact surfaces and leave paint chips falling out of the joints any time you try to re-pose.
>>23617344>sand down any surface that scrapes another>mas off any big peg and any peg hole for joints>depending on the plastic you'll either need to use a multiprimer or a water based paintthat's pretty much the gist of it. It's up to you whether to go metallic or flat color for your joints, or if you're autistic enough to detail it completely with different colors.
What's the one MG I should get
>>23617399I'm really fond of MG Z'Gok, MG F91 2.0, MG Origin RX-78-2, and any Feddie MG from 08 MS Team.
>>23617352goddamn that's some pristine metallic paintwork
NEW HG KIT WHEN???????
new thread...
>>23617332flaming snow are good i've used them a few times
>>23617344In my experience, most modern kits have enough clearance to be able to be painted without the joints scraping paint (if you're airbrushing)
>>23617023mr mark softener is trash get ak decal adapter
>>23617399the one you like the most
