HG Mk IV G-Doors when?
>>23622141Just got the sword left to do. Arm joints are annoying me with how they pop out easily, I'll probs figure out a way to tighten them (paint isn't enough) before calling him finished. Still considering whenever I'm leaving him clean or doing some weathering.Also it's mostly sponge painted fuck you >>23609116
>>23622189>no video prooflol nice try
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).
>>23622196Don't care.Buy Unkosovl or WfM gets more FRS instead of anything getting a new MG
Got some chinkslop on a discount. The beetle comes with an extra clear head, which is really nice.
Just snapshidded my GN Flag
>>23622217
>>23622189nice but very dustyis that the bootleg by any chance?
>>23622229Nah it's a normal Bandai kit.Also it's dusty because my room just gathers a fuckton of dust in minutes for no apparent reason.If anyone knows how to deal with that, I'm all ears
>>23622230I have the same problem, I just started putting a bag over my shit when i'm not working on itBe very vigilant when spongepainting because wet sponges attract dust very quickly, don't let them stay in the open too long
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tBSVtLcRQjE did you rike it
went to Jakarta GBWC
>>23622257Corruption, where staff secured exclusive goods for their friends, so they don't have to queue just like everyone else. pretty common.
>>23622260Best seller: RG Freedom (China), HG G-Self Perfect Pack & RG Nu ff
>>23622257I'm going there tomorrow.
>>23622267non-exclusive stocks
>>23622275The submission for competition is quite low level compared to SG and MY, but there are still some outstanding pieces. here's U-14.
>>23622280the aura farming kid meme
>>23622280A more dynamic pose on the Musha would've elevated it tenfold
>>23622284DOM shitting
>>23622257How does the exclusive stuff work? Cordoned off at a specific area and you have to queue to check them out?
>>23622290Queue. sold out very quickly.exhibition is open at 10.00 and all the hot stuff (>>23622267)are already sold out at 13:30. I'm not sure if they restock daily or not.Some people said they arrived at 10.00, but could only entered at 14.00 because there are so many people.even though it's fucking friday. Queue is very long. here's the queue at 10:30
>>23622235would be kinda cool if they didn't look like shitty bionicles
Here's your 1/60 Z'Gok
>>23622235I still think it's lame that these robots are supposed to be man-sized. Giant knight mecha in a medieval world is cooler. This makes it seem like some Bionicle meets dragon's dogma shit.Nice animation though.
>>23622296This one is my favorite submission.
>>23622296Aww shit, I can only go in the afternoon. Might pop by on sunday morning as well depending on how things goes.
>>23622300
>>23622298He's so goofy.
>>23622297>>23622299The fact they look like Bionicle is the coolest thing about them tho
>>23622305This one is really cool.
>>23622311Yeah, they can look like whatever, design-wise. I just think contextually, giant robots would be cooler.
>>23622313
>>23622316nice
>>23622324
>>23622327>gunpla mom
>>23622329What am I even looking at here?The rest are pretty much straight build with shitty poses, not even painted. this country is so fucking bad at customizing, man.
>>23622334This is why the merlion chads laugh at us...
>>23622289lol based
>>23622289unkopla anon gonna FREAK
>>23622334I can appreciate the work that went into this, but it also took me a minute to decipher where its head and limbs were.>>23622320This is downright beautiful.
>>23622334>chinese manufacturers are now looking to hire this indo to design gunpla for them
When the FUCK are they going to re-release the PBandai Slave Wraith team MS, I fuckin need them man
>>23622280>the exhibit area is smaller than the store areasuch a grim state of your GBWC there...
I feel like buying some girlpla. Talk me out of it please, I dont want to be gay.
>>23622334>this will win because it's the only entry that has any effort put into it.and it will become the laughing stock at the finals.
>>23622284So that's how they will be escaping the sinking city.
>>23622414Punimofu Mao is the manly man's plamo. don't reject it.
>>23622426this but Punimofu Tu
>>23622414Liking cute girls is the opposite of gay though
>>23622189I normally dont like recolor paint jobs but this looks nice, good job babe.
>>23622414Liking girls is anything but gay.
>>23622506>>23622441Maybe that anon is a girl...
>>23622509I know a few girlplafags that are girls, girls like cute things after all.
>>23622316Does that z'gok have z'goks for arms

>>23622561Still working out the kinks on my technique.
>>23622562
>>23622334Thanks for sharing anon
>>23622221Nice and shidded anon. How was it? Planning on painting?
>>23622571Yeah I'll paint it eventually. It was an okay build, nothing too special. My only complaint is that the knees are kinda annoying to get in place.
>>23622141Snapping heavyarms gato
Question for the anons that got the Osiris, what type of plastic is it made of? Am I safe with my lacquers or is it full of ABS?If it's ABS (or mystery plastic) I think I'm going to need to get 2 cans of Aqueous topcoat for it.
>>23622316>Skipping leg day
Do you guys collect the whole team of a show or just the model you like? I got 3 of the SEED MG Gundam so now I feel like I gotta get the other 2 for the full team.
>>23622671just the ones i like. shelf space is too limited a commodity to have models i don't like. plus i already have more stuff i do like in the backlog than i can fit on my current shelves anyway
>>23622298I NEED IT
>>23622298>>23622683I see preorders for it from my local chang sellers, about 250 leaf bux before tax, that's about right for a PG huh?
>>23622646always assume ABS for chinkpla. it's much cheaper to produce than PS that's why it's very common.
>>23622671i unintentionally owned all the MG ZGMF 2.0's (even the Eclipse) because i liked all the releases from that frame.
>>23622693Yeah, but figured I would ask as I remember one guy was doing a full paint.
Total noob at painting here: I'm wondering if it's a bad idea to use pre-diluted paint meant for airbrushing to do weathering by drybrushing.It's the only metallic paint I have at the moment.
>>23622784What type of paint is it?
>>23622785It's acrylic (from Army Painter to be exact)
Thanks to my country's shitty customs I can't import topcoat and the likes, what can I use to cope?
>>23622784it should work fine as long as you minimize paint on brush (this should always be the case for drybrushing). it just will take more time to build up highlights, which will have the benefit of giving more control
>>23622298I hate the head bump
>>23622784It'll be fine. Just make sure the brush isn't too wet.
>>23622141I did work on my groupbuild, I still need to build/modify parts but the rest I already figured out got a coat of primer today and the body is already painted in the main color. If I don't fuck up the paint there is a good chance I will be done in time.Finally snapped this Zaku II because I maybe need the waist powercables beads for the groupbuild build, I have metal ones but they are not shaped so I am not sure yet wich look better.Also RG ZakuII is an awsome kit! It is the first RG I build and it is really a small marvel of plastic moulding tech already looking like that just snapped oob, Idk how it holds up over time but all those people screeching it is horrible just have a skill issue/need to take their retalin for that sweet hyperfocus. I Can symphatize if yo have big hands but that is something we chose to do to ourself if we engage in small things hobbies so cannot really complain there.
>>23622813>>23622831Thanks for the answer guys! I'll give updates on my kitonce I get my airbrush later this month. Hope I don't fuck my first paintjob up
>>23622839just keep in mind that if you are actually properly using the tiny amount of paint for drybrushing, you can undo anything by using a similar amount of the base color you are brushing on top of.
>>23622804Which country? I bet you have several art supply stores that you can order clear varnish from
wtf bandai's advertisement for the 30 MF line was cool? am I suddenly a bionicle autist now?>>23622804some hardware store varnishes are good but they may not be the exact finish you are looking for. Just make sure to test them out on spoons first.
>>23622298THAT'S THE WRONG FUCKING SHAAAAAAADE!
>>23622646you can paint abs with lacquers contrary to what that one fudpushing esl in here likes to say
>>23622851>>23622842if it's not plamo taxed /gpg/ will say it's shit tools
>>23622671only for zeta. rick dias off screen on the right
>>23622842>clear varnishI'm gonna try to look into it.
>>23622884>you must use only japanese imported paints stirred over a thousand times>>23622888do you have the Rustoleum brand in your country's hardware stores? It's the same company that makes Testor's enamel paints, but without the hobby tax.
>>23622860Who cares? It's a model kit, not a finished product. You're supposed to paint it.
>>23622888Any clear acrylic spray will work too. As long as it says 'safe on plastic' you're good to go.
>>23622887Zeongpilled
>>23622896sorry, if it's not the correct color out of box, it's a bad kit.
>>23622887I like the Zeta checking his watch
>>23622235I'm always happy to see more worldbuilding. That last bit of cultural exchange is really cute>>23622315>>23622297>>23622299we already have 30mm for giant robots. 30mf is the male counterpart to 30ms. Also Bionicles are cool.
>>23622884When it comes to top coats there some, like Mr Hobby, are objectively better than the others by a mile. From a can it's Mr Hobby > Tamiya and then the rest are pretty ass.
>>23622878I mean my lacquer top coat broke ABS in my Shining Gundam's arm the other week. That was a Bandai premolded frame part ABS which is a bit weaker.I'll just buy the Aqueous stuff to be safe.
>>23622947>30mf is the male counterpart to 30msI hope not. I want sexy female Bionicle knights in the line eventually.
>>23622878it's just enamel thinner that fucks themlacquers work great on ABS because they have more bite
Just finished my FigureArts Kamen Rider Kiva I bought earlier this year, you anons weren't joking with the amount of stickers this has. Does Ultraman Geed Primitive from the same line also have a crazy amount of stickers? I mean I am glad I built it even if Kiva isn't my favorite (unless we mean just the Pre-Decade Heisei Riders, then he is).Earlier I bought one of those Max Factory Bushmen from Dougram, all the other Max Factory stuff was anywhere between 60 to 120 on Amazon while this guy was only 31 bucks, I figured that would be an easy steal. Worst case scenario I got something to practice paint on.
>>23622970rattlecan? it's easy to overdo rattlecans because they blast out so much shit at once. abs is weaker to lacquer thinners than ps (especially if stressed) but it's not a problem unless you're completely drenching the part in it. i've painted a ton of abs with lacquers through an airbrush and never had a single issue. i've never used rattlecans though and i don't think i'd trust those because there's no control and they shoot out a metric fuck ton of shit with the slightest press
>>23622997No it was Mr Hobby GX Clear in an airbrush. Even did it a bit light when near the joint/positioned the arm in a way that it was mostly protected by the shoulder.I either got unlucky with some pooling, or those stress marks that appear in the premolded parts let in the lacquer thinner.I was just trying to avoid buying more paint before non-aqueous Mr surfacer white got back in stock. It's been OOS everywhere in the US so I'm assuming the distributor just hasn't gotten any.
>>23622992>Earlier I bought one of those Max Factory Bushmen from Dougram>31 bucksAnon what did you do!? Say you at least got that Reinforcement variation with the extra motorcycle figure, right?
>>23623012I saw both on Amazon, that version costed more money and I had no use for the bike figure so I went with the regular. Are Bushmen just hated? Is it because preddit/blue sky did a boycott? Not following.
>>23623005Went to go look and... Does no one stock the Aqueous clears in jars in the US? I'm just finding the rattle cans.
>>23623017The Bushman has one of the worst plastic mold qualities of any official Sunrise kit, worse than early high grades. Did the low price not ring off any alarms in your brain?
>>23623005This guy has some good videos on painting ABS:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2oAD5s7UzUhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kPUQSVhB11UThe main takeaway is that you have to apply very light coats ontop of each other.
>>23623028I thought it was an overstock, like a warehouse got full and the seller needs to clear shit out for the net wave or whatever.
>>23623030Yep, this was discussed when I posted pictures and bitched. No need to cover it again. Like I said it was presumably the stress marks behaving like nicks, or I didn't wait long enough after my first light coat (only waited like 5 minutes/ looked visually dry).Haven't had a chance to try with my God Gundam yet to try the better technique, as the temperature has dropped too low in my garage and the heater in ordered hasn't been delivered yet.
>>23623035>next wave
>>23622908i still have to detail the legs>>23622937i had the thumb randomly fly off into the abyss some time ago and set it like that. it looks slightly less retarded from other angles
>>23622608Cute!!
>>23622402Is it rare or something? I have the Ground GM.
Gundam Zirius looks like fucking SHIT.
>>23623127You can't expect me to remember how it looks
>>23623127You just aren't chink enough to like it.
>>23623127never heard of it
>>23623127It looks fucking awesome.And before you reply, yes I do like chinkpla
>>23623071You don't need legs, just add thrusters instead
>>23623148
>>23623145On the topic of chinkpla, I just found out Motor Nuclear recently released a new kit that looks rad af and is not covered in spikes for onceIf any of guys will STILL call this overdesigned you are officially retarded

Anyone gonna take a risk and buy a suprise bundle?
>>23623206Yeah, I'll post results.
>>23622141Started on customizing Lah Gundam. Saw it on sale for like $7 at my local hobby store.
>>23623206Which page is that?
>>23623215https://p-bandai.com/us/search?limit=20&sortType=NewArrival&offset=0&_f_productStatuses=Waiting%2COn&_f_shops=05-0002&_f_shippingMonths=202510%2C202511%2C202512%2C202601%2C202602%2C202603%2CCurrent&_f_series=03-001%2C03-007&utm_campaign=20251114_hobby_gundam&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-_cw1y7j3vdCmiq5UA10ioIA7u8_ssNJ1CpZk6eZQ7sEYOH2QlxWDI7yiqb_LK_88bH0N9VvfzRvCBnL6bJ7zmuPG_K_hTNiaNghX6YUvzGrBhVyDY&_hsmi=390004456&utm_content=390004456&utm_source=hs_email
>>23623206Why, most likely it's just going to be the shelf warmers they can't get rid of, and/or a bunch of clear color shit. There's zero chance it's going to be stuff that I actually want and need, there's not suddenly going to be shit that hasn't actually been reprinted in several months, or kits that haven't even been sold on the US side for years and/or haven't even appeared on the website before. Plus, whatever shit they put in those boxes, unless it's actually curated and not just random shit tossed together, means you'll have to buy the base kits to go with it if it's something like an expansion parts package (e.g. if they give you the Barbatos Expansion kit, you'd have to go out of your own way to buy the MG Barbatos if you want to actually make use of it).
Decided not to buy the mystery box and just buy the two HG Stark Jegan variants they're selling right now.
>>23623220Yeah, I wouldn't trust bandai unless they gave us some examples.
>>23623238But the mystery box could be anything! Even 2 HG Stark Jegan variants!!
>>23623270It can't actually, those release in January and February.
if the action figi is like 40,000 yen, how much do you think a theoretical model kit of this would cost?
>>23623278about three fiddy
>>23622838I love the RG Zaku too. I bought an RG Crossbone afterward and now I'm really excited to build him.
NO
>>23623220>>23623263if you have too many gunpla the likeliness its a duplicate of what you own will be too highthis might be good to gift someone, otherwise might be best to get some optional kit and

I think I'm gonna drop outta the group build

EKDROMOI
what do you gain from posting this in every thread
annoying but at least it is a good design for ac
>>23623273Oh, I didn't realize you were able to divine the contents of the mystery box.
My Starflower Lily showed up and she's a much bigger girl than I was expecting.
>>23623310>>23623314fuck off stop posting this. it pains my heart too much knowing no kit is available
>>23623346The mystery box releases December.
>>23623298>this might be good to gift someoneDunno man, feels like you're better off actually picking a specific kit if you're gonna give someone. Shows more thought on your part too.
>>23622141Gonna be hard to see because they're primed in black but heres the update on my Wares Blade "miniatures" I'm making for my campaign when the game releases in the spring.
>>23623354>Starflower LilyThinking of getting it. Have you built it yet or do you mean the box?
>>23623389It's a mystery anon, you can not prognosticate the unknown. You participate in a long history of human folly, thinking that you know what the future holds.
>>23623440Box just showed up today. Looking at the runners, I have a gripes already in that there's some plated pieces that aren't undergated, so they're going to have to be stripped before painting.The overall presentation is pretty good, though. She even comes with a little holographic bookmark thing and a bit of packaging that folds out with a printed cityscape on it to use as the background of a diorama.Here's the box with a Megami Device box for scale.
>>23623160I think this looks good. Not a fan of the clear parts but I could paint them white. I for one like Chinese mecha when they show restraint like this.
>>23623465Is that a mecha musume of Gundam Calibarn?
>>23623278About half as much, slightly more for the American market
>>23623472With big saggers.
>>23623465man I can masturbate to this starflower lily robo girl cause that box art is so beautiful
>>23623465>BroomgunNice
>>23623495Gundam Calibarn has a broomgun too...
>>23623495mecha witches get the mecha brooms
>>23623506Do you already have a PGU RX-78? Do you want shittier plastic to slap over the frame? Are you a total retard with poor impulse control?
>>23623518yes, no, yes. I want to see the frame
>>23623518>>23623522also if I don't like it later I can resell the clear kit for a profit
>>23623506I genuinely do not get the appeal of the clear body line. They look bad and cheap.
>>23623524>I can resell the clear kit for a profitLOL
>>23623527I understand for every kit except this one>>23623529as of now every sold listing is more than what I just paid
>>23623532Those are still new in the box. If you cut everything out of the runners, sand and prep it all, and then later decide it's not for you then congratulations because you just turned $70 into $8.
>>23623536I never said I'd put it together. The preorder ends tomorrow.
I just realized looking at my Unicorn that the legs in destroy mode are very long.
>>23623556Katoki'd
>>23623556common criticism of the Unicorn kits
>>23623278it's probably going to be priced similarly to the Psycho MkII
>>23623556that's why i always just asssemble it in Unicorn Mode, and putting the calf on Destroy Mode to "fix" the proportion.
>>23623586>putting the calf on Destroy ModeWhat?
>>23622973It'll probably happen. Women invade everything.
>>23623278that thing looks so stupid
>>23623624Um.. it's kino and only patricians can see the beauty.
>>23623278>photo of gothicmade prototype, colored
>>23622141I'm working on my ma.k asf this might be one of the best faces I've done so far, still have some more touch ups to do.
>>23623664also I'm trying something different, I'm doing an oil dot filter on the oxide primer before doing a hairspray chipping effect.
Is this the next stage of model kit engineering?
>gets made instead of more MG gunplawatchu gonnado about it boomer?
>>23623697heh that's one cheeky way of rendering the Swastika.
>>23623589i mean thigh. but yeah i keep this open to slightly lengthen it. it's too short in Unicorn Mode.
LET'S GOOOOOOOOOO
I kinda want the Steel Haze 30mm kit but the head looks like shit
>>23623668>>23623664Looking good
Okay, bozos. Remember when I brought up the idea of the Full Armor Banshee, which is the Banshee with all four Armed Armors equipped at once? Time for me to say, try making one with an HG Banshee Norn as a base because the clear parts are better.
>>23623898>HG Banshee Norn as a base because the clear parts are betterIsnt that kit super garbage?
>>23623825Then fix it
>>23623961You cant fix it, it's deformed. I've looked at some 3d printed models that are better, but eh.
>>23623961nta but if it was 1/100 I would, but as is it's a tiny clusterfuck. maybe if I was in my 20's or 30's still with steadier hands and better vision, but desu its not worth anymore. If I cared enough I'd just pay someone to print a bigger resin one and work with that. common Bandai L

GBWC Jakarta Day 2
>>23624026
>>23624029
>>23624034
>>23624020Give it all to me
>>23623788>>23623465>>23623160>>23623961
>>23624026Sup, I just came back from it too.The selection was kinda grim. So many fucking clear colors.
>>23624175There were multiple shelves of the clear color woundwort. I guess I was too late and most of the cool shit were sold out on day 1. Was gunning for the unicorn perfect and the purple haro. But oh well, the titanium finish unicorn is cool too.
Quite a lot of pretty cool stuff on display though.
Also, it was basically a family event. You got parents choosing gunpla with their kids and talking about what they each want, or couples buying gunpla together etc.But yeah, the actual selection of gunpla though, kinda mid. Even for the regular shelves aka the non gundam base exclusives, there's too many damn clear colors.
Also saw quite a fair number of people picking up the 30MM series - not just the girlplas, but the mecha and the fantasy ones too. So yeah, for those people here complaining about 30mm, sorry man, I guess too many of my countrymen want them.
I added some gunmetal gray to the chipping to make it less uniform. How does this look /gpg/?
>>23624188I like this one.

it's been 1 hour since I tried to disassemble this 1 fucking part it's fucking killing my nail
>>23624331plan ahead and trim the pegs so it'll be easier next time
>>23624331I cut the part into two. fuck this shit. I'm just gonna glue them>>23624336It's the kind of "slide in" part that can't go all the way in (stuck), but can't be pulled out.
The chink GP02, I love my chonky bois
>>23623295I bought it for black Friday last year to safe some money but I like Zaku's so I would probably have gotten one anyway. Maybe because Gunpla is more of a side quest for me and I'm not a bitter Bandai hater but I am really impressed by it. Maybe I will put the Char version on my secret Santa list. And enjoy building your crossbone!The reason I did build it only now is that I just had not gotten around to it and to get some inspiration how to do the torso power cables on my group build but I see the go from €30,- and up today so having some backlog is not a bad thing I guess
>>23623788we allow chink KOs now?

You guys got any tips for a smoother painting workflow when you paint the inner frame with metallics?The inner frame needs a gloss top coat but the armor needs flat. It's easier to apply decals and do weathering on the assembled kit, so I have to dissassemble the armor every time I want to apply a flat top coat.
>>23624684I mean, I do it all in pieces, then put it together once. No idea why you'd do it over and over again. The rare occasion I can't, it's because of a seam weld, and in that case I've modified the assembly so the seam welded parts are together but nothing else, so it would still be separate.
>>23624699I find weathering to be very awkward to do on separate pieces.
>>23624709I just lay them out flat, somewhat like they would look. I agree it can be awkward, but also the weathering process of gunpla is nowhere near as involved as armor or aircraft so it's not a big deal. Ontop of that, scale is an important factor which means unless it's big damage, you're not seeing the stories so much. Just hours on field.
>>23624512Good luck fag, i actually mean it too. Better share what you get
>>23624684You could just mask it off
>>23624196As much as people here want to seethe and whine about it, the whole 30MM line is pretty popular in general.

bros, i think i may have a problem. i keep buying chinkpla but never build them. i only ever put together p-bandai HGs because they're simple and are actually therapeutic. i dont really wanna spend too much time putting all those chinkcore shit together but "maybe one day" so i keep consooming.
>>23624797>i keep buying chinkpla but never build themhello me yes

>>23622141tried putting a purple rhinestone instead of a lens stickerlooks better than I expected
>>23624776>>23624777thin your paints more and use lower pressure. this looks like you blasted too thick paints at high pressure>>23624817ah, those are prethinned right? you might just be spraying from too far out, prethinned paints tend to have little to no retarder in them and you have to work much closer at lower pressures than with paints thinned with a "levelling thinner"
>>23624898Yeah pre-thinned. It's my first time pre-shading so I'm not expecting to master it in one kit.
I want to get the mgex strike freedom or pgu as a christmas gift for myself, which one do I get?

>>23624952Enjoy your japaanese slop that has had the exact same designs since the fucking 80s
>>23624956I can't do that, it feels weird as an almost 30 year old to think of buying anime girls' model kits
>>23624952mgex strike freedom is a chinese design
>>23624959>sams designs since 80sThis is just outright false
>>23624962skill issue
>>23624964Literally 90% of Gundam designs are the RX-78-2 again and again with slight variations
>>23624962... hold 'im, boys
>>23624962Girlpla is made specifically for 30 year olds, do you really think little girls buy them?
>>23624993my younger cousin snapshidded a few 30MS girlpla
>>23624976crazy how the majority of designs in a show aren't gundams
sorry for the retarded question here because I'm a noob when it comes to bootleg kits. how are the quality of some of the stuff from aliexpress? I was looking for a few kits like the Solomon and the MG red astray(big sword). and the pricing is really good for bootleg shit. I've done lepin for lego before and the quality was like 90% of the way there. is it worth it if the real kits are harder to find now or are scalped to hell for the real kit?
>>23624329Its not even released yet. The fuck are you talking about.
>>23622137Are the hips on the Freedom 2.0 line of kits really that easy to break, or are people just generally reckless with them?
>>23624457>random hg kits.Nope.
>>23624993Maybe in Japan the main market are actual women
>>23624976>Literally 99% of chang kits are Gundam designs with extra sharp and pointy parts.
>>23624474I have the normal coat version, not the special coat. It looks pretty good though my building skills are bad.
>>23625092No model kits are marketed to women, except for girlfriend types like the beargguy that you're supposed to make with them.
>>23625103For me it's because they sometimes offer previously HG kits in MG-level complexity and engineering. But yes, a lot of chinkpla is greeble/edge city.
>>23625087the latteri think this much was obvious to anyone with a functioning brain
>>23624770Didn't notice they posted one for Fantasy, too.https://x.com/30mfantasy/status/1989528836137259514
>>23625077It mainly depends on the specific bootlegging group, some of them will churn out stuff that's about 80-90% of the way there but for about 50% of the price, and you have to be okay with doing your own work to polish the kit off. For the most part, if it's an "original" kit then it's probably going to be okay, but do your due diligence and Google to see if there are any problems with that particular kit, there was a scare last year or so where a bootleg 1/144 scale "RG" Nightingale was giving modelers skin rashes because they used some kind of caustic chemical as mold release and didn't bother cleaning it off before shipping.With regards to the GP02 bootleg, people buy it because the only alternative is an old-ass 1998 MG kit that has aged horribly. Everything I've heard about it is positive, so you probably won't go wrong there. If you're buying something from Daban, their 6000-series kits tend to be lackluster but still worth it for the money you spend. This particularly applies if they're the only options for kits that haven't been reprinted in ages or are hard to get on P-Bandai. Again, be ready to do your own finishing and fixing because bootlegs tend to be full of imperfections that you just don't see on Bandai kits.
>>23625077Solomon isn't bootleg, but plagiarism.Bootleg is like JMS, GaoGao and Daban who copied Bandai's runners 1-1. it's not worth it if you have money to buy Bandai since bootleg will have issues, especially fitment issues that you need to fix with sanding, trimming or even gluing.
some people really ought to drop the action figure mindset when handling their model kits
>>23625216Are you implying we should be treating model kits as model kits and not toys?
>>23625213>MUH ABNDAI PERFECT SLOPFUCKOFF AND DIE
>>23625226chill
>>23625226an imitation of slop can't be better than slop
>>23625245realyou build a bootleg and you have to wonder whether an issue is due to the bootleg being a bootleg or it's just an engineering fuckup on bandai's part
>>23624684>The inner frame needs a gloss top coat but the armor needs flatHow does this look in real life? I always see uniform varnishes being applied.
>>23625213thanks anon, honestly might try one or two here then just to test it out. I've been wanting to get the Solomon for a while
>>23625077Depends on the brand and specific kit. Some JMS models are indistinguishable from bandai aside from some very small fitting differences, for example. Some are kinda bad (looking at you, daban). I wouldnt buy bootleg MGs and definitely not RGs, though. Then there's original chink kits. They can be awesome, but it depends on your price range. Often in the same price range as a MGEX or a PG
>>23625276Which gunpla are you interested in?
>>23625245I'm going to be real man, out of the last 5 HGs I've built, I've had more trouble with Bandai than the bootlegs. And these arent old bandai kits either, most are from 2015-2018 (the bandai one from 2006 is the better of the bunch, ironically).
>>23625175it's probably just the other classes for the lizardmen race.
>>23625284nelson 1/60 blue astrayMG SolomonMG red astray (big sword version)
>>23624184pretty good effort, though i'm not a fan of the robot designs why didn't bandai fucking reprint Mobile Doll Sarah reeeeeee>>23624186meh. nice base design though>>23624188good effort, but i feel the butterfly wings kinda clashes with the rest of the design. diorama and colouring needs a bit of work too.>>23624194diorama can be improved. right now it looks kinda toyish.
>>23625298none of them is a bootleg>Astrayconverted Metal Build into Model Kit
What to build /gpg/?
I dont see any bootleg builders customizing their builds and putting love into it. They just build it and shelve it because theres no extra work you can put into it besides painting. Might as well buy a figurine.
November 22 in Glorious Nippon.
>>23625333I have the Acguy, it's an easy build.
>>23625213>Solomon isn't bootleg, but plagiarism.Sorry, what is the difference?>Bootleg is like JMS, GaoGao and Daban who copied Bandai's runners 1-1.Wouldn't that be plagiarism as well? Are just that they copy the designs of the existing mecha but they designed/ reverse-engineered the runners themselves?
>>23625333Acguy.
I want to paint an inner-frame on grey, but dunno which grey I should get and use, it's the MG Duel Gundam by the way.
>>23625361Either Tamiya Gunship Grey or Gunship Grey 2. Vallejo Gunship Grey if you want to hand paint
>>23625363I want to hand paint so vallejo it is, thanks anon.
>>23625342The 1:1 recast is different than a knockoff design that resembles the original. Solomon Physalis resembles Gundam Physalis, but its surface details and engineering are not made by Bandai.
>>23625368I see.
>>23625342Daban is more akin to making counterfeits. Solomon is more like making a new kit from scratch, but the design is blatantly plagirized from Bandai's Physalis.
>>23625010you never said you little cousin was a little girl just to clarify
>>23625368>>23625392then there's cases like Theo, Gray Zeta, and Super Gundam where Daban went lengths to improve the original Bandai kit's issues by improving the frame design and/or add greebles on the armor. also the 88XX series where they're Metal Builds/ converted into model kits. they're on a grey area between counterfeits and a plagiarized model kit.
>>23624993My wife got into girpla recently, women love cutesy stuff, though when it comes to MD she prefers to build the main body and that's it.
>>23625407It can be pretty exhausting building some of the megami device kits with how many accessories they have. It feels chaotic and isn't very satisfying. I strongly prefer frame arms girls.

Third party kit when?
>>23625489Well they're not doing a good job of it because the clear color woundwort is warming a lot of shelves.
>>23625568All clear color kits look like shit. Who the fuck buys that garbage?
>>23625568That doesn't contradict what I said though.
>>23625562>>23625563Interesting. It does look rough compared to newer girlpla, but I guess that's sort of to be expected, considering how old Xenosaga is. It seems like they tried to mix the designs of v1 and v4?There's some nicer figures, but I don't care about those.
What should I start assembling this afternoon ladsthe Doans Island Guncannon or the RG Gundam Exia?
>>23624774looking good champ
>>23625568To be fair, the clear Woundwort is the cloudy, translucent clear that doesn't use the same shitty and brittle plastic as regular clears and AoZ stuff have historically been popular P Bandai items, but the Woundwort itself is what makes the choice odd. They've reprinted it a bunch, bring out stuff like Haze'n-thleys that get printed rarely or things we've never seen outside of Japan like the HG Hrududu units.
>>23625596RG
Yeah, I'm thinking its chinkino time
>>23625460What part broke? I'm slowly working on this kit and if it's something I can reinforce, I'll tackle it now.
>>23625509The firdt few passes should be EXTREMELY light, do at least 3 or 4 with basically no pressure and it will make it easier. Ignore the chinaman youtubers that do it freehand, they have some strange genetic mutation that lets them scribe freehand. Also try your best to lightly press against the guide tape, thats why its there
>>23625603Not gonna like, I think that actually looks pretty good. Other than the head, I still prefer the real Qubeley's smooth head. That chink version looked as though its head is cracked.
>>23625615>Not gonna like*lie
>>23625509Don't try to make the line in a single pass. Putting too much pressure on the chisel will make it tend to jump around more. Also don't try to force the chisel into the tape as you'll actually carve out the side of the tape making the line crooked, as much as possible pull in the intended direction. Several low pressure pulls will leave a cleaner line. I would recommend finding something to practice on, it takes time to scribe cleanly, I'm still trying to do it better myself.
>>23625416MG Providence. Trust me, its glorious
>>23625615The smooth head would be very simple to replicate with some putty. I do prefer this grebbled look, but the proportions also look better overall.
>>23625600RG it is, it'll be my first RG kit so that will be fun
>HG Bearguy>it's almost as big as MG
>>23625634Exia was my 1st RG too. Be careful cutting the little parts holding the shoulder tape thingy. The tiny peg is not a nub.There's also a chink made inner frame if you want to improve the rigidity and articulation.
too many metal build releases
>>23625736Nothing wrong with that. They target a different demographics. It's like girlpla vs figurines. Some people don't care about the building part and just want a cool/ cute thing to display.

>>23625999I just snap shidded mine, it's very good. goes together pretty much like an MG with inner frame and pistons and a few moving armor plates. the cockpit has a little rack+pinion mechanism so the pilot seat slides out when you flip it open, it's cute.build is very sturdy with minimal seams and the details are all nice and sharp. it's a fairly big fella too, to the top of his head not including the antenna or backpack is about 215mm. well worth the 40 eurobucks i paid on ali

>>23622141Snapped my first Muv Luv robot. Had a surprising number of runners, but I'm assuming it is due to all the variants. This is the Shiranui Second Phase 3 - Yuya custom, so I'm assuming there are at least 2 prior Second phase kits.Also had an idea to fill in the words on the swords in some brushed Mr Color aqueous I had sitting around and just cleaning the extra off with some iso. Not as bright as I was hoping for (it was Ariel blue), but still happy with it.Will top coat it when I get my garage heated next weekend or the one after.
>>23626467Fuck, hit post and instantly realized I forgot the photo.
>>23626301If upside down pics are Australia where are you, France?
>>23626467Also shit, realized that to hold the guns I need to pull the handle off... I glued it because I thought it felt loose and didn't remember how the hands were. Guess it is swords only.Also I like the couple pre-painted/applied decals that came on the kit like this label and the eyes. Surprising to see on an HG like kit.
>>23625610>>23625617Thanks anon
>>23626467>>23626470>>23626501they named it the shiranui second phase 3 but it's actually the second iteration of the shiranui second, which was an upgrade of the original. I've continually put off on mine because I want to change some of the proportions and also make a diorama of the last CG from total eclipse. not really a huge fan of the 1/144 muv-luv kits in general though. the non-scales have a lot more extras from the vn/integral works
>>23626467>Had a surprising number of runners, but I'm assuming it is due to all the variantsYeah, I think they are built off the frame arms platform which is more of a customizable thing.>Also had an idea to fill in the words on the swords in some brushed Mr Color aqueous I had sitting around and just cleaning the extra off with some iso. Not as bright as I was hoping for (it was Ariel blue)Needs more white pigment to make it pop. Aqueous in general covers worse than the solvent stuff, so it tends to be crushed if you paint it over a dark color.
>>23622141First time painting, still not entirely sure what I'm doing. It's mostly fine, I think, just some coarse bits near corners that pops up after they're dried.
>>23626617There's also this weird bubbling/ crackling at the side on one of the parts. I swear, it looked fine when wet, then I left it to dry and it became like that. The first 2 coats were fine too, it popped up on like the 3rd coat. Need to add more water prior the 3rd coat? Didn't stir it properly?I'll try sanding off those bits later and see if it can be fixed. Thank goodness I had enough sense to just paint a few parts to see how things work out.
>>23622230>If anyone knows how to deal with that, I'm all earsGet a cabinet with glass doors/walls, that's what they're designed for.
>>23626631Most shelves like that just minimize dust, but still have gaps that let it in. After enough time you've got to dust shit inside them too unless you seal them.
Why the fuck do gunpla gather so much dust
So, is the next group build going to be shitpla, pokepla or what?

>>23626685Bro, that was literally my idea...
>>23626687Brother
Poop brother.
>>23626682finally, a good theme
>>23626670a fellow 1998 hg heavy arms enjoyer!
>>23626705Did you fish that out of a pond?
>>23626708it was painted with 15 year old craft store paints that had horrible coverage and kept reactivating. the green was way too bright but at that point I was super tired of working on it so I put matte on it and called it done
>>23626620are you using an airbrush or spray can? I would say it could be an issue with the moisture trap. also it could be that the part had mold release agent still on it, just wash the parts with water and dish soap before priming.
>>23622138Started priming.>>23626679Dare I suggest shitpost?
>>23626720Hand paint with brush. >I would say it could be an issue with the moisture trap. also it could be that the part had mold release agent still on it, just wash the parts with water and dish soap before priming.I see thanks, I'll see how it goes with the other parts.
>>23626729>Hand paint with brush.Brush priming? You're going to deal with all kinds of random bullshit. Sand and prime again imo. Also, I don't like using too many layers of brush primer, but it depends on what you're using.
>>23626734What, no. The grey is the paint.The primer is white mr surfacer from a spray can. You can see the white bits at the feet parts.
>>23626738Also, the priming part was fine. As for the painting part, as said coats 1 and 2 were also fine, hence why I proceeded with another round of coat.
>>23626729>Hand paint with brush.hmmm that's weird considering how smooth your paint job looks, it could be dust or the paint was in the process of coagulating when you did that part. I recommend using a self leveling thinner, if you are using acrylics try the orange cap tamiya thinner.
>>23626738>The grey is the paint.You wouldnt happen to be using vallejo, would you?
>>23626747>I recommend using a self leveling thinner, if you are using acrylics try the orange cap tamiya thinner.I'll look into that, thanks.>>23626757No, Mr Hobby
>>23622141The suit is almost done. The fingers need another layer of paint but I will apply that tomorrow. That and panel lining the arms are all that's left.
>>23626790Damn, looking real fine.
>>23625815That's literally Artifact The O. Blame Bandai for this shit.
>>23626815No it isn't.
>>23626821>Acktuaklly the rivet is at a different positionCope
>our local toystore actually imported Shitpla and now they're being sold all over the country.this is probably my un-kolling.
>>23626557Ahh interesting. I still have to read Alternative, as it wasn't out when I read unlimited/extra and then when I finally went to read it there was that weird publisher switch on Steam and it took them a year to give me my new steam key.
>>23626835I mean why wouldn't they? It is a Bandai Hobby release.
>>23626835You can say, the enshittification has begun.
>>23626840not every toy gets imported here. we never got Hyper Yoyo Accel toys even though they're way better than shitpla.
>>23626847Why would a hobby store import toys? Shitpla are in the same category as Gunpla, FRS and 30MM.
>>23626835They don't sell them at my local stores in Jakarta/ Indonesia. At the very least, I've not seen them in the stores I've visited near my area. Even right now during the pop up thing, they've got other stuff like 30mm series, pokemon, yugioh and other assorted plamo franchise, but no poopla.
>>23626850I fully expect to see them. I also fully expect 90% of them to shelfrot and as soon as stores refuse to buy them Bandai will fuck off and sell them to India and develop some new shitpla idea to prevent having to reprint good kits or make new kits.
I finally decided to actually look up the shitpla thing since you guys kept >shitposting about it. It's just glorified playdoh, you people are seriously making a mountain out of molehills.
>>23626865>Bandai Hobby SiteHow the mighty has fallen
>>23626873The monkey crab thing looks cute
>>23626877wait never mind, the legs look awkward.
>>23626108>>23626301nice!!! are you going to build a stand?
>>23626838classic age mismanagement. I highly recommend it, every easily one of the best mecha stories there is
>>23626873holy hell, nine turds
>>23626843>You can say, the enshittification has begunnot this shit againlet's cut the crapevery time these childrens' toys are mentioned the thread really goes into the toiletyou can't just say bandai is taking a shit on their fansif they flood the markets with master grades then prices will have to take a dumpand shareholders will be left with turds
>>23626954exactly why the enshittification is happening. instead of giving what fans want, they're trying to put artificial FOMO by not reprinting enough or locking it behind p-bandai exclusivity because they know that generates more profit
>>23626956I was just making poop jokes

sometimes it's hard to forget 30mm are giant mechs since they're all botlets in comparison
>>23626972this looks like a recolor of the Spinatio Assasin.

>>23626991I would like to see their scale to see if I can shove them in some wargame
>>23626991This what 30mm truly was for. Diorama parts for 144 gunpla
>>23626994Very small. Probably made of 2 parts.

>>23626991I like these, seem great for dioramas. I like that they don't have the typical 30mm styling so they should be fairly versatile without too much modification
>>23627033>>23627036cute
