>>23795098Mine has been done for a month I just haven't taken the photos. I had a bunch of scratchbuilding planned but ended up not liking it so it's just a recolor as it is.
Is weathering done on the stage where you decal/panel line before the final topcoat or is it after the final topcoat? Asking for myself since I wanna try weathering for the first time.
Which chinaman makes the best Varguil KO?
>>23795039They just need to do this for the regular Kampfer now.
>>23795178do it after decals and liner, also depending on what kind of weathering you'll do you either put it on top of a satin or gloss coat, or flat
GaoGao's Zgok is fucking trash holy shit don't buy it!
>>23795039I kinda like the hanger, anyone have any recommendation for a stand alone one?
>>23795224>weathering you'll do you either put it on top of a satin or gloss coat, or flatSteel chipping, would it be on after the final flat coat or before?
>>23795250Before. You need the final coat to seal in all the weathering the same way you'd seal paint and decals, that's basic logic
>>23795211believe it or not they all use the same mold
>favorite reviewer is a furryI cant believe its over. I guess Im sticking to Takeshi and Zak.

>>23795079lol all your drug knowledge comes from movies and TV.
>>23795344how's the voice changer working out, prime92?
>>23795331Both are true. You always want to topcoat at the end, it's a protective layer for whatever you've just applied. Weathering is generally the last step before the final topcoat, but after the paintjob, glosscoat, panel liner, decals, etc.

This was a fun build, only some lining and the dry transfers to go. GBD put it in the group build header but the only custom thing about it is the paintjob so that surely does not count? I will make proper pictures when it's all done anyway.

>Bandai made an old-ass 1/100 Heavygun kit way back when>Consider buying it>$63Hmmmmmmm I want a Heavygun but I know it isn't going to be anywhere near on par with even an entry grade or high grade. Also apparently the head is on a peg which is weird as fuck to me. Are there any Heavygun bootlegs on the Chinese side of things?
Just watched cca movie (for the 4th time) Now I want this stupid parrot more.
>>23795535Have you build HG Zgok? These old F91 kits have that exact quality.
>>23795536>only good kit is chinkpla
>>23795535Can't you just customize a Jegan into it?
>>23795436owo what is this?
>>23795532I was just making fun, but still indeed. When I see very expensive, basicly just fun stuff, like that it always make me think of a clip of 50cent, when one of his friends or posse or something buys $1500,-worth of shoes he goes 'mang, you can buy a small car for that my nigga'. I was eyeing a V-siren Prominence in plastic but even those are not cheap.
>>23795535They still reprint these from time to time so just wait for it to be reprinted.
>not a single SMP kit in the P-Bandai store Da-Gam Ga-Ornwhere did this ugly roundhead even came from
>>23795550These things are like for the real real hardcore fans of FSS manga and they are willing to spend thousands of dollar for their statue collection. I would like to say shit taste since the last time i read a few scanlated chapters it was awful, but again, dogshit like Dungeons and Dragons have alot of wealthy fans too so i'm not gonna judge fss fans too hard on this matter.
>>23795541Not really? I suppose I could take a Gundam Mk II for the arms, the HGNF GM III Beam Master for the head, and other kits for the rest and repaint it all, but at that rate I might as well spend all that money on the original kit
>>23795566You can buy the recently reprinted Hardygun and start from there. Charging almost 70 dollars for these empty clamshells is fraudulent.
>>23795575Good call, the head and chest about the same, I'll go with that
The humble Leo.Im gonna get the full arms kit.He deserves a cooler upgrade then those RGB nerds.
What to do if all of your backlog are POs for Q3 2026?
Chang's Gelgoog III is comming out soon. Can't wait. Fenris Wolf when?!
>>23795596Btw, the scale is actually 1/144. The studio advertises it as "1/120" just to trick the size queens into buying.

>>23795575what did they do to my boy?eugh
>>23795644>Where are the mg's
>>23795654Tch why would I want another similar to ZZ?
>>23795658MG has become the new RG. Just Gundam and popular rivals.
>>23795665>popular rivalsGraham.... forgotten....
>>23795667He should have used better mechs
>>23795667The reason why not everything is Master Grade is because of design complications. Some are not worth making as MGs due to design clash, and your Flag-based machines are never meant to be MGs due to the spindly frame. I would expect a Susanowo, but they gotta have parts to make the GN Flag out of the age-old 1/100 Non Grade Over Flag.
>>23795672they could make an MG out of Ahead Sakigake
>>23795672>never meant to be MGs due to the spindly frame. It can work. However, no one gives a shit about Flag, Brave and the related, especially in current era where most of people already forgot what 00 was even about.
>MG Vidar before Kimaris Vidaryikes
>>23795681Kimaris Vidar came after. I would say they should have made Kimaris Gundam first but that guy is an ugly piece of shit.
>>23795681i doubt they will make other vidar versionsmaybe this one for piss bandai
>>23795603What's going on here?
>>23795689It is the new Calibarn bootleg based on the garage kit design. It is much smaller than the Bandai HG and has much sharper sculpt.
>>23795596is this going to be better than Chang's shitty ReHaize?
>>23795688Kimaris Vidar is gonna have brand new armor parts if they ever make MG for it.
The HG 105 dagger kit from SEED could really use a revive.
>>23795691No idea. Different studio.
>>23795680Not until next year, I suppose. Though it's still a matter of time until they announce the Cherudim. Here's the logic: One by one, we would get releases for the Season 2 Gundams (Cherudim, Arios, Seravee, and Reborns), then we also get the GN Archer with the GN Heavy Weapon upgrades for the rest of the CB Gundams as a set, and finally, P-Bandai Artemie. But between any of these kits will be the Full Mechanics Susanowo, and maybe after that, the P-Bandai Masurao (which is a minor recolor that came first anyway).
>>23795690Was hoping they would have upscaled it to 1/100. It's just about the only suit from that show I like and I want it in that scale.
We need a Chang general. So tired of seeing this trash.
>>23795699It is probably too late for 00 to receive new batch of kits. Bandai doesn't even bother to remake those 2009 HGs. Reborns almost had a RE100 kit but that got canned long ago.
>>23795703Go back to Discord
>go to discord>"my builds" channel>all snapbuild not even with panel lining / decalsat least pose your robot, faggots.
>>23795703Bandai fell off, retard.
>>23795732Chingpla never got off the ground
>>23795430I can't believe my gogg I did for the groupbuild inspired you to split the vote and do another gogg. I have truly sabotaged myself.
>>23795691The Rehaize is fine as a much cheaper alternative to the resin kit
>>23795727post snapgod kinos
>>23795706Most of the HG 00 stuff are good, particularly its Season 2 kits, which is why we aren't getting updated versions. But for Master Grades, it's still fair game, since we kinda have the frames for them. Though one minor bit I would think of in regards to electronics is that if the Season 2 kits get MGs, Cherudim and Arios won't get light-up GN Drives unless they use a more compact LED unit (like the ones used in the FRS Netflix Ultraman kits), but keep the glowing head parts the 00 Gundam got. The Seraphim, on the other hand, might as well use a Netflix Ultraman LED Unit for the Drive because of Face Burst Mode, and the Seravee still somehow gets a light-up head with only one LED.
>>23795727Posing is the funnest part>whore drags twink bf to petting zoo to pet the ponies
>>23795755I still think Exia and Aerial look like siblings, IMO.
>>23795757It's their twink bodies and white headfins. Its an oddity for a Gundam to not have a yellow one and the two both being white makes them very similar in the face colours

>>23794979almost done with the nightseekersome of these decals sucked ass to work with, still not as bad as bandai's (or tamiya's) decals
>>23795755I found the Aerial SDEX to be downright okay. Is the Exia any good?
>>23795441What's the search term for the little plush thereI want one of those it's adorable
>>23795804They're just calling them chibi plushes.
>>23795752Those old HGs can use better sculpt, especially Tieren kits. The engineering is ok for most of 2009 HGs, but the compares to CCA HGs, they look so much worse.
I don't get Mk-II popularity. it's the most basic bitch looking gundam out there. same with Nu, but at least Nu got that cool asymmetrical backpack
>>23795803Exia was okay. His round stickers sucked and his gn swords dont fit 'great' in his waist bits, i keep them on his shield as pointy bits
>>23795812It's because the shows it was in were very good.
>>23795812White mobile suits are ugly, Mk II superiority forever
>>23795812Less is more. The Mk-II is a perfect balance of the simplicity of The First Gundam combined with Gryps-era elegant style, all without relying on excess details or an overuse of greeble.

>>23795812>look ma i posted it again in the new thread.
>>23795854I will never pay above MSRP, unless it's a P-Bandai kit that hasn't been reprinted in forever, and even then I'm sure I could find a Chinese knockoff relatively easily.
>>23795863I really wish you didn't reply to that, because reading that post upset me greatly. Therefore I'm now certain it was merely a bait post.t. used to think the Mk-II looked too generic.This: >>23795823, it's just a reliable soldier Gundam on which all the subsequent Gundams were modelled after.

Is there any point to getting a ZZFA if you already have Enhanced? The chance of the armor and cannon getting sold as an expansion pack later on may be slim, but never zero
>>237958754 and 5 have the back vent thruster things despite being developed by Augusta, but I couldn't tell you why III from all the way back in Mobile Suit Variations looks like the result of Neo Zeon after having stolen the Hyakushiki.
>>23795879The Full Armor ZZ has new parts for the wing shields so that you don't have to replace the entire forearm when you swap the armor on or off. Though granted, it's designed to be attached to the non-transforming forearms which have the holes for attaching the armor parts, so if you want to do the G-Fortress transformation you'll have to do a forearm swap anyway.
after Qubeley, Gelgoog and Yiya is now making Zeta as well, 1/120, probably.notes: Yiya's Qubeley has extremely shit snapfit
>>23795672>The reason why not everything is Master Grade is because of design complications. Some are not worth making as MGs due to design clashThey did the Zaku II Kai dirty. That could have been a MG kit, it would have worked and is popular enough to sell. Bandai in their infinitely bad marketing and their unconscious desire to screw over the Gundam Franchise decided to put it in RE/100 hell
>>23795885>Make something that has over 6 kits alreadyChangs can be retarded sometimes
>>23795888I don't get why this line has to exist. It is not like all of their MGs have super complex frame anyway.
>>23795885i will now buy your chinkshit
>>23795879>Not displaying the FAZZ, ZZ, ZZ Enhanced, and FA ZZ seperately.
>>23795885>1/120 scaleBut why? Is there a big demand for a scale between HG and MG? That feels like a recipe for disaster, since not only are there plenty of opportunities to fuck it up, but also you couldn't even display it alongside any of your other kits.Which does kind of make me wonder if Bandai would one day dip into making kits in this intermediate scale with MG/RG-complexity, if only because 1/144 scale is already forcing them to make all sorts of compromises for RG kits.>>23795893I assume that they have reduced engineering and development costs, due to not having to design full inner frames and detailing the inner sides of the armor pieces. But too bad they aren't priced accordingly.
>>23794979I tought i could snap the wings and weapons today but turns out i understimated the big heavy wings. Tomorrow for sure the rifles, sword and shield
>>23795893>>23795896When RE/100 was pitched to the public back in the early 2010's it was reasonable. It was to make cheaper, 1/100 scale kits of designs that were too large (Nightingale), or too obscure and low demand (GP04, Dijeh) to make a profitable MG kit from.The problem is that it quickly evolved into a line for Bandai to throw high demand kits into that they just didn't feel like putting effort into making MG kits for so fans would shut up. Then Bandai started increasing prices for RE/100, probably destroying sales and the later kits were mostly released through P-Bandai from then on.
>>23795899My favourite RG. It is so well made.
>>23795905It's also funny to point out that the GM Sniper II was originally considered for RE/100 but became a MG kit instead and ended up becoming one of the most popular kits and has a inner frame that was utilized in a lot of other MG kits later on. Bamco just throws darts at a board most of the time.
>>23795888>>23795914Wait what exactly are RE/100s and are they goo->>23795905So they're expensive non-MG kits, I'm paying similar prices as I would for an MG except it doesn't have inner frames that an MG would? Am I retarded?
>>23795914RE100 was never really about the lack of popularity. Bandai just wanted to be rewarded for their laziness. They almost put Jegan and Leo in it.
Hey, I'm building the PGU Rx-78-2 and the metallic etching stickers don't wanna stick at all. Anyone else had this problem? Can I just use some mr cement?
>>23795930Correct. They're basically the bastard child of MG that's demanding similar or greater pricing compared to actual MG kits. I assume that they originated from the old concept of 1/100 HG kits that pretty much every AU series has had, but applied to UC, and then eventually coalesced it all under RE/100 and Full Mechanics (which actually derives itself from the sequel name for the 1/100 HG kits for IBO season 2).It's a huge directionless mess that's probably going to get worse rather than better.
>>23795932Do you even understand how plastic cement works?
>>23795932so this is the target audience of PGU slop...
>>23795602>Just pay 50 bucks for a poker card broNo
>>23795933So is there no reason to buy RE/100s unless literally>MG prices>no MG frames>and I either don't care about inner frames, the mobile suit is a favourite, or the mobile suit's HG kit either doesn't exist or sucks enough ass such that this is my only optionand it's out of either reluctance or indifference that I or someone else would buy these? I heard the new RE/100 term get dropped now and then and assumed it was some expensive and fancy premium thing (not that kind of premium) on par with PGs and PGUs
>>23795934It's just some glue?
>>23795937You buy them for the same reason you buy MG kits: You want a 1/100 scale kit of that design. It's highly unlikely that a RE/100 or FM kit is going to get an MG, Aerial is the only one I can think of that will eventually get a MG simply because it's the Gundam of its show. Ultimately, unless you actually care about the inner frame, it doesn't really matter all that much since the exterior detail and limb motion range is comparable to a MG. The AU 1/100 HG kits don't match the level of detail, though the IBO ones do include inner frames simply because that's how IBO as a whole works, which makes them the exception to the rule.
>RG Tallgeese exists>HG Leo exists>No HG Tallgeese>Easy money but they won't do itWhy
>>23795941detailed inner frame matters for 1/100. FMs are floppy and light weight as hell.
>>23795938It isn't. Do some research on how rubber/plastic cement works, to find out why it would utterly fail in what you're trying to do here.>>23795943Anon, you do know that the Leo is not the same size as the Tallgeese, right?
>>23795941This might sound like massive cope for people who actually own MGs but>some HGs have some inner joints or frame-like shit>others are made after like 2010 and have decent motion>others are from the 2000s and you'd be lucky if anything has a 90-degree bend>all of these are vaguely similarly priced>so if you pretend MGs and RE/100s are in the same bag the same way old, modern, and detailed HGs are, it's not as upsettingHaving built 1 RG and 0 MGs, I personally don't care about inner frames existing, apart from them possibly helping with better articulation. But I always thought it was cool how there was a scale larger than HGs that had inner detail as well, and it feels like you're getting robbed of those with these pseudo-MGs.That being said>the exterior detail and limb motion range is comparable to a MGis good enough for me
>>23795943I don't see the reason why HG Tallgeese should exist. The RG kit is 1/144 already.
>>23795949For some people, the build process can actually be a major factor in the decision to purchase a kit, and the willingness to pay extra. Besides MG kits which usually have pretty good inner frames, you have the PGU line and the RG Gundam 2.0 that have multiple layers of inner frame. They may not display the kit with the armor pieces removed, but for those people the experience of building up the inner skeleton, then the layer of inner frame, and then finally the external armor, all while adding in all the details in-between, are part of the enjoyment and they're willing to pay good money for it. Like, yeah, it sounds kind of stupid to spend so much effort building and detailing parts of the kit that will never see the light of day after you attach the armor, but there are people that achieve neuron activation from that.
>>2379585450% maximum. I would never pay $200 for the original release SMP Gaoking.
>>23795956Just a personal opinion, but the simple structure type of kits is only acceptable when the kit is small, stuff like Hexagear's Governor and HG. When you inflate the kit's size into 15cm tall at minimum, you can feel the hollow interior and how thin the pieces are because your brain immediately tells you that something is wrong when a robot that big has 0 weight. Unlike the smaller HG and RG where their weight is appropriate to their size.
>>23795958>0 weightThe things they invent to sell to gunpla bro's these days...
>>23795961>gunpla broMy 1/35 Tamiya tank is heavy
Shut up and spend 70 dollars for this 1/100 scaled empty clamshell
>>23795961>It's real Lol
>>23795956>the build process>find the long hours arduous but refuse to do multiple sittings>finish building a thing and then immediately wonder what to build nextNo yeah, the building process can be fun, I'll just refuse to admit it.>the experience of building up the inner skeleton, then the layer of inner frame, and then finally the external armor, all while adding in all the details in-betweenI'd appreciate this more if the instructions actually went in that order, but from my singular RG experience this wasn't the case. I'd definitely get more of an appreciation if the build process was>lunar titanium skeleton>then the sensors and basic mechanicals>then the gundanium alloy armor>then all the fun visual bits and your new friend is now completeand if this is the case for bigger builds, then that sounds really great.>sounds kind of stupid to spend so much effort building and detailing parts of the kit that will never see the light of dayThis is true but I'll also greatly appreciate it if there's detail like that for HGs as well, even the HG Gyan has I think some vents beneath its chest armor. I'm also the sort of person who panel-lines feet and worries about things like>if I paint something, then the outer bit will be one color but the inner bit will be different>so then in-universe it's just a coating rather than the entire piece being a certain metal it's meant to beor>if the internals aren't symmetrical (e.g. one joint's part order is A then B and the other is B and A, even though the result is symmetrical other than "one piece has a peg and the other has a hole" inside), the circuits will be out of order, or maybe the robot will feel uncomfortableso fuck, maybe I'll like MGs, just never got around to picking one. Maybe the Mk-II or Hyakushiki.
>>23795961>Weighing your suits down with earths gravity. Spacians would never.
Building modelkits is like playing good videogames. When the game is good but it is like 30 minutes long, you will feel disappointed and crave for a longer runtime as some sort of your own personal closure. The ideal building time is 2 hours or more. The disappointment requirement is 30 minutes ( yes i'm looking at you 30MM )
>>23795983>The ideal building time is 2 hoursIt takes me 4 days to build a master grade + 2-3 more days for panel lining and decals. double the time if painting.It's nice to build 1 gunpla / month
>>23795988Alot of MGs are quite simple and have an optimized assembly time like MG Jegan and Zaku Warrior. They are fun "quick" builds. The longest and most tedious assembly in my recent memory is FAZZ.
>>23795876Yeah the arms on the HG aren't that sturdy but it looks like he hasn't got it pushed in firmly. A little bit of pressure and mine keeps the arm pose just fine, but it does tend to slacken a bit if I poke it or something.
What are your favorite cheap bootlegs? The only good one I've built so far is the XFS GM Spartan.By cheap I mean CHEAP: something about 10 bucks or less.
>>23796050
last update until the final
>>23796007That's the RG. HG Zgok is easier to fix.
>>23795957That is very specific. You did pay $200,- for the original release SMP Gaoking didn't you?
>>23796053Is this that one chink Zaku tank kit?
>>23796007It is the RG not HG. I painted the joints with matte acrylic to improve the friction. It is slightly less "spaghetti" now, but still very saggy.
>>23795876nice chinkshitoh wait
>>23796061yep
>>23796071>Made 2 kits >DisappearedGrim
>>23796074they made a magella tank too but it is rare as fuck, sadly the one you posted isn't actually 1/100 scale so havent purchased it.
>>23796080Most of Stardust Memory kits are in 1/144. I think that scale is intentional.
>>23795050Correct, now the holding hands the MG kampfer has on the other hand..... The open hands are great though, way better than the shit we get today.
>>23795885>1/120Slopgrade
>>23796080Don't they advertise the chink Zaku tank as 1/100 scale? If they are actually 1/144 or there is a bootleg in that scale I'll have me some.
>>23796115Zakutank is 1/100.
>>23795961is this just marked up tungsten putty
>>23795961Their glass files were great but what the hell is this lmao
>>23796127It is just paste type putty
>>23796127putty mixed with metal particles to make it heavier. sometimes you want to fill gaps and make them weigh more to fix balance issues (hollow feet, legs, etc)
>>23796138>>23796130Why not use regular putty?
>>23795914The sniper 2 mostly just recycled the frame from the rx-78 2.0(aside from the coreblock section obviously), which is fine because it's a stellar frame.
>>23796122Ah, I think I got confused somewhere then, sad.
>>23796127I got their nub removal set for Christmas so I ought to have a look at what else they had and found this on their site. I did not get it but as a wargamer I can see the use for something to put weight in a model, I have been glueing coins in bases far ages.
>>23795983...except that 30MM takes longer than 30 minutes to build, unless you are skipping nub removal completely (but why would you do that).>ib4 joke about 30 Minutes Sisters
>>23796144because it doesn't weigh very much. try reading pls
>>23796161What?
That gelgoog III kit looks good but random ass 1/120 scale is an actual deal breaker
>>23795691Re-Haze was good though.
>>23796168It's weird but it doesn't seem to stand out much >>23795597There's a variant of it that uses the Sazabi long rifle so it might actually supposed to be around Sazabi height.
i made my first custom gunpla!i bought 2 epyon kits so he has 2 swords that he can hold one backwards like a ninjawhat do you think?
>>23796189I think you should check the photography guide, friendo :)
>>23796182It uses Messer's shield and was developed from Regelgu, i believe it is supposed to be atleast at Regelgu's height ( 21m ) or Messer's height ( 23m )
>>23795932No, use CA glue.
>>23796189Why are they black
>>23796202he uses dark energy swords
ok but when are the Mars Zaku III and Dom III
>>23796247>Dom IIIJust buy a dreissen and snap the shoulder armor in half
>>237958540 because I despise scalpers, il just buy something else because I dont want to play into their dick head game
>>23796252doesn't come with the giant beam bazook
>>23795835Anyone else get irrationally mad when you see un-posed kits like this?
>>23796264No, you're too autistic even for this hobby
>>23796130>>23796125i assume those flakes are tungsten, so yeah it probably is>>23796144you mean regular tungsten putty
still haven't finished thistodo rest of paint, decals, other weathering (probably that grimey ass ink marker method because i want this to look beat up but without battle damage)
>>23795968I mean as long as you're okay with your gunpla never lifting its legs again.
>>23796252Dom 3 has a bunch of stuff like Dwadge Custom's shoulder, bigger bazooka, additional thrusters on the back and the body of Unicorn Dreissen.
>another spot with surface contamination that I didn't know ofdo I just hand brush this?
>>23796189Customizing
>>23796273How many gunpla can even do one-leg poses that are stable enough to leave that way on a shelf?
>>23796337RG Shining/God and basically that's it
>>23796130why not just buy tungsten shot and mix it with putty?gunprimer just "invents" solutions to problems that have already been solved
>>23796337this was sorta stable
>>23796337I had the G-Line in a pose like that for a month or so.
>>23796343because this is a one stop solution for lazy people
>>237955961/100 or 1/144?
>>23796371Advertised as 1/120 but the actual scale is debated >>23796194
>>23796055>>23796064Oh I'm retarded On the topic of the RG, is the white panel for the cockpit color-separated? It's a sticker on the HG and that shit sucked
>>23796402Yes
>>23796194Right, and the Sazabi's head height is also 23m. According to the wiki, anyway.Comparing the Changoog III to the HG Reben Wolf should be interesting. I think they're both gonna be around the same height.
>>23796051More like BOOBlegs
>>23796270what kit is that?
>gloss coat with lacquerhow long do you guys wait before panel lining and decals? overnight? 24 hrs? 5 hrs?
>>23796377Their qubeley was way bigger than the 1/144
Around how long does it take to build an MG? I can usually get the main body of an RG done on a Sunday if I start early
>>23796508You can do it over a weekend.
Anyone know where I could get reverse-sticky foil/mirror stickers like the one used for MG Turn A's eyes? Please don't say "just paint it chrome", not the effect I'm looking for.
>>23794986goog update
>>23796337the pgu nu can
>>23796130where do we buy this GRAVITY™?
>>23796476nobody knows?
>>23796476I tend to go overnight, 12ish hours or so.
>>23796476>>23796520overnight if you want to be really safe but if you're in a rush then 3 or 4 hours should be okayjust wear gloves so you don't get fingerprint marks all over it, just in case it is a little soft still
>>23796508I would say 2-3 days minimum, depending on complexity, volume, and accessory count. And this is of course assuming you don't paint the thing.
>>23796512what color did you use for the frame? it's looking good
>>23796537thank youpaints used are:alclad steel for main partsalclad gold aluminium for jointsak interactive gunmetal for inner feetak interactive polished aluminium for thrustersak interactive chrome for male piston partsak interactive gold for female piston partsmr color super fine silver 2 for outer frametamiya gunmetal for outer feetall lined with watered down citadel nuln oil
>>23796544forgot to mention that these were all painted over tamiya black lacquer and the mr color and tamiya metallics were thinned with mr rapid thinner. this gave a much, much better result than my previous attempts with my go-to mr levelling thinner.also, my mr color super fine silver 2 had completely solidified in the bottle but was salvageable with thinner and stirring, and the resulting finish was really superb, I can't recommend it enough.i believe alclad has been discontinued which is a shame because their variety is fantastic (their polished aluminium was one of my favourite metallics for candy coats) but ak is still a strong contender for pre-thinned metallics.
Got everything primed, starting my weekend project to paint my MG zaku II 2.0 ms-06f kit. Finished up all of the secondary armor (chest/and skirt parts) get to the end and realize that I can't find pic related anywhere. Parts have only been in two locations, my work desk and my desk near my spray booth. I've torn the house upside down trying to find it. I don't remember the last time I saw the part, but there is one suspicious alligator clip without a primed part on it. My guess is it squeezed out and pinched itself into another dimension. Now I want to just abandon the kit despite being 85% done. Sucks.
>>23796561You can prolly just fill the gap with putty and sand to fit at worst. Overall be very careful with it. The inner frame is full of c-clips that are looking for any excuse to snap. Source: Me and my Gouf.
>>23796563Yeah, thought that or getting some PS sheets and cutting a piece maybe. But man what a fuckin bummer.
>>23794979just finished this
What do you guys do with your boxes? Some of these are needlessly huge and I have a small apartment.
>>23796570if I really like the arm I just unfold the box, flatten the sides behind it and store it. Otherwise trash
>>23796512are you going to leave it that level of gloss?or finish with satin or matte?
>>23796570i started doing that dickass trend of making trading cards out of them, except bigger like slabs to get more artworkfeels pretty good keeping the art in a much more storable way
>>23796412The funny thing about Sazabi is that the thing is much bigger than it supposed to be originally. 25m has become Sazabi's head height over time.
>>23795976Hyakshiki 2.0 is a very good MG, it was my first and I want to go back and repaint it someday. The thing articulates better than most kits in my collection, almost girlpla tier, it's a lot of fun to mess with.
>>23795930RE 1/100 was reserved for obscure UC characters and also some characters to complement MG releases at the time. e.g. Dijeh with Hyakushiki, Vigna Ghina with F91 2.0, Zaku Kai with Gundam Alex.
>>23796570Toss the blank side. Flatten the fancy side and store it in a box, same as I do with the manuals.
>>23796570I put them on my box wall stack, eventually I will upgrade my wall to a fort.
>>23796590>>23796412
BASED ZACK
>>23796603Does it hold up better than the Mk-II? Those two, the Sazabi, and the Nu are some of my favourites, but I haven't decided between the RG and MG for the latter two. More articulation is really good in my book, I think I remember hearing that the Mk-II was one of the first 2.0s, it looked good but maybe the Hyak has a bit more to offer>>23796608I'd say non-main MSes deserve MGs too, but we're not even getting EG grunts let alone RGs or MGs
>>23796627>6 foot vs 5 foot 11.jpg
>>23796608Beside Dennan Gei, MK III and Gerbera Gundam, most of RE100 guys have some form of B tier popularity in Japan. People know stuff like Dijeh and Nightinghale more than they know about fucking Rezel and Gunraid.

>>23796638holy shit chinese instruction manual is on another level
>>23796683
>>23796412I think Chinese Gelgoog III is gonna be much smaller than Reben Wolf.
>>23796694The test sample in comparison
>>23796685Am I going insane or did bandai used to do something similar but stopped for some reason? I swear I've got some gunpla whose manuals marked off what shit you used for each section.
Opinions on the MG Avalanche Exia? I kind of like the idea of what is essentially a 'Full Armor' Exia, and one of my local shops has one in stock.
>>23796676>seravee and raphGod I wish. I want more mechs in mechs dammit.
>>23796694>>23796696seems like it will be around Reben height to methey're both noticeably shorter than Sazabi
>>23796713Fully transformable MG Seed Zgok/ Infinite Justice when?
>>23796722Hopefully never
>>23796721Gelgoog 3 is standing on that display base, yet it is barely taller than Sazabi. Atleast Reben Wolf is almost there.

ITS TOO LATE NIGGA YOU AINT FINISHING THIS ENTRY
>>23796765Joke's on you, I already gave up at the end of February when my dog died and I lost the motivation to do anything but cry for a week.
>>23796713>theres a normal Tieria ans Tieria in a dress made of clear cumOh Bandai, you spoil me thank you
>>23796769I'm sorry to hear that anon. My condolences.
>>23796722Honestly, I'm pretty sure that's outright impossible from how it happened in animation, because Fukuda is a fucking hack who values style and shock over any amount of substance.Seravee II seems more than possible, since they seemed to have half-assed it on the Raphael kit with the intention to do a full kit later on, like they did with Seraphim.
>>23796776shave your thigh goddamn
>>23796555They are still available.https://www.sunwardhobbies.ca/paint-and-paint-supplies/?page=1&rb_feed_product_brand=Alclad%20II%20Lacquer
>>23796789Seravee II is absolutely possible, transformable 3rd party kits have existed for a while. It's basically just folded in half and slapped on the Raphael's back after all.
>>23796798Its a cat sir.Her head made for good background contrast
>>23796810Nice pussy.
>>23796712It's a brick kit, that looks really good.
>>23796627this just makes char look more pathetic
>>23796685Zeta ver.ka does this exact same thing in the manual
>>23796508I'm of the opinion that it's about as fast as an RG of the same kit. Similar part counts just larger.
>>23796841Mainline MGs are pretty quick to build. Ver Ka are much more complex though.
>>23796841To be honest ever since they started gutting MG frames they take me less time than RGs. RGs are way more fiddly to work on.
>>23796889Only modern and better RGs have that kind difficulty. Older RGs are pretty easy fast since they are 50% completed already.
>>23796907That's true. The only old RG I've bothered with was the mk2.
>>23796810she looks like she doesn't respect build space nor display space
I would sacrifice any one of you for bandai to reprint all the MG crossbones.
>>23796929Calm down griffith.
>>23796789Ray Studio did it, can't remember what comprimised there was.
>>23796868Ver Kas generally feel to just take longer due to the decals. The V2AB didn't take me that long and that is a Full Armor Ver Ka kit.
>>23796938I don't bother with most ver ka decals to be honest. I'll do a few but I don't like how busy the full set ends up looking.
>>23796938Victory is very small so it is effectively a RG. Building Narrative with B packs in one sitting feels like i just climbed a mountain.
>>23796946I tried to do this and after like 12 hours I had to tap out. I painted mine though so it may have contributed.
>>23796946Victory is a fucking awful kit in general.
>>23796924She's a very good lap cat...usually...
>>23794979I'm working on the MG Turn A
>>23796639>Does it hold up better than the Mk-II?Definitely would say so, MK-II basically kicked off the 2.0 era (2005) while Hyaku was at the tail end of it (2015). MK-II isn't "bad", it looks pretty good and it has really cool shifting armor in the legs, but it's very simple almost HG-like with its barebones parts seperation and articulation. Even compared to 2.0s that would come just a few years later. Aside from using polycaps, Hyaku doesn't feel very aged at all. Full color separation, layered inner frame with very well designed joints and smart usage of polycaps, probably the best style of manipulator hands they ever did (with a flip out tab on both the palm and the weapons, really solid connection) and generous undergating on account of the pre-painting. I don't see them making another one any time soon.
>>23796996Man, I really want an MK II 2.0. It's been such a long time since there was a reprint, though. I ain't paying double MSRP or more for such an old kit.
>>23795812
>>23797009you don't have to keep reminding us that you're a gay faggot, we saw it the first time
>>23797001It was reprinted last year and is being reprinted again this summer dude.
>>23796996>MK-II basically kicked off the 2.0 era (2005) while Hyaku was at the tail end of it (2015)Ok that's a solid argument for the Hyak>relatively barebonesI guess I'll hold off on it until I get another Mk-II itch, still have to get the Super Gundam to upgrade the Revive version. I know they're different creatures, but would the MG or the RG be better for the Mk-II? Just for when I decide to get another Mk-II of some sort.>individually articulated fingersAmazingAND it turns out you can switch between all the eye options too, wow it seems like MGs just let you switch between all the options that for HGs you just had to make a final decision for
>The grandaddy of aquatic MS and Maschinen Krieger
>>23797014Where exactly do you see the upcoming reprint schedule, and not just this month's like what's in the OP?
>>23797020Just follow this boomer on twitterhttps://x.com/okichan1984/status/2036982032929350094
>>23797020The north american distributor tells stores and I talk to people. I asked last time I saw you posting about it. Expect it to hit stores around may.
>>23797026is he a bandai insider? wtf
>>23794979Decided to add more stuff to my railgun. After screwing up several times on test pieces finally got somewhat decent vents.
>>23797030I swear to God, are there only like a dozen people that use this thread? I wish IP counter would come back.
they're so cheap, I'm getting a friend grab one (got already one 1/44 snaa for less than $10)probably the xh03 in white or the xh12w (I like how the white versions don't look as busy compared to og colors)
https://youtu.be/gzCyuyykkuo>you know what this overdesigned kit needs?>more panel linesWhy do people do this?
>>23797032He is probably a plamo retailer so he knows what get printed and what isn't.
>>23797049https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zT0K4e8b0PoFor me, it's SDARK. He has been MIA though.
>>23797056SDark is GOAT, really like how he mods his kits
>>23797042Maybe, maybe.
>>23797056to me it's Chop. that fucker doing some freehand scribing made me a believer.
>>23797049>does what he wants with his kit.I don't see any problem.
>>23794979Posted my MG Turn A earlier. Have to clean up some panel lining but I don't have any waterslides for the Turn A unfortunately. I have to work on the shield, rifle, core fighter and mace.
>>237970012.0 MK-II is always pretty cheap I find, the titans ver. less so (somehow) but every from of it is getting reprinted at least, even that ancient super gundam>>23797016>MG or the RG be better for the Mk-II?I don't have the RG, but from what I gather it's basically down to preference in scale/design. The RG is less anime accurate with extra panels and shiet, the titans ver actually comes with extra parts for a 'test type' configuration, and it's also far easier to get a G-defensor for since the HGUC exists (the pbandai two-pack even comes with an adapter). The MG is just bigger and more solid. Though if you already have the revive, I'd probably get the MG just for the variety. I am holding out hope they make a new one, as Zeta, ZZ and Hyaku all have pretty great new fangled kits that leave ol' MK-II feeling kinda limp, but who knows how that'll take?
finally finished my Dark History GM (it's a Type C, GM Sniper II and Aile Strike rolled into one). fucking hate Gundam SEED so butchering this was a win-win situation and these are doubles of my Type C and Sniper II kits
>>23797099thin your paints nigga
Thoughts on ZGOK?I'm gonna paint this dude blue, but I don't know how to paint the clear pink parts.
>>23797102>caring about not butchering SEED kitsSEED sucks dick so don't care about botching that mfer
>>23797102You have three options:1. Go over them with a different clear color in the hopes that they'll blend into something cool2. Cast using silicone and clear resin and then paint/dye (which if you want to do properly, requires a shitload of extra equipment including a vacuum chamber and pressure pot)3. 3D print the parts (requires even more extra hardware)
my homie wing zero
>final assembly after painting>realise there's a piece missing>find it under a box on my workbench>unprimed and unpainted
When will Bandai Hobby do a Chiikawa collab? They did it with Sanrio.
>>23797151There is also the option of abandoning them being clear at all and just painting them a solid color.
>>23797198If you're using lacquers that's like 2 hours tops and most of that is sitting around
Someone redpill me on motorcycles for Koto's 1/10 scale girlpla/Megalomaria line. How many are there, and are the ones that are designed for the larger male kits able to be ridden by the female kits? And lastly, what vendors are there besides USAGS and Newtype that sell this shit?
topcoating by piece before assembly is unironically exhausting. especially when there's so many small pieces that will be hidden anyway.
>>23797321atleast you won't see that weird border where your top coat hit the exposed part of the joint
>>23797321especially when the top coat gets depleted quickly.just top coat per limbs bro
>>23797289They're pretty beefy bikes but with how articulate they are the ladies can ride them just fine. There's only the two designs so far, Knights Superior and Night Czar.If you wanted something a bit smaller for the girls, have a look at the Gigantic Arms Rapid Raider, that's more focused on being ridden by Koto's girls.
LOL
>>23797334This is the same guywho did the same scam with same 3D model previously under the alias " Machine Soul Storm ".
Are all the ace customs fighting on Mars still or not?
>>23797338Mine's fighting on a different Mars.
Picking transforming nigga as my painting practice kit was unwise.
>>23797338Mine's getting put down near Mars several years before y'all show up.
>>23797357literally nobody cares about Patlabor
>>23797358Some people would buy it for the RG collection i guess.
>>23796769I'm sorry for your loss, anon.
I've only built HGs so far, which of these do I hit first with the least likely odds of fucking up>MG Zeta Ver Ka>RG Banshee
>>23797363It's all the same shit.
>>23797363probably RG banshee if you hamhand the frame, most notably the shoulder joint
>>23797363Zeta Ver Ka is more normie friendly. RG Banshee/Unicorn is abit difficult since the armor parts tend to fall off easily.
>>23797332I'm separating coats for gold parts and everything else with gloss and semi gloss but man it is such a slog
>>23797374RG Unicorn is funny. You can't actually bend the pauldron but instead you have to bend the biceps for the rotation.
>>23797358I care about it more than Gaydam.
>>23797365>Most emotionally stable Bandaitard
hlj benchod send my things already bich blody
>>23797333and if you live in japan, there seems to be a LOT of 1/12 sized accessories and I've found scooters too >>23797289I still think they're 1/12 scale though
>>23797389Megalomaria scale with Sousai Shojo Teien, which are 1/10.
Why doesn't HLJ have Gcucks Zakus yet? I even preordered one but got left out. Gundams are in stock yeah but no one wants those. Had to ship my stuff because lol storage fee
>>23797358Patlabor is an amazing series and you are gay.
man working with pla plate breaks my ballsi'm allergic to measuring so I just eyeball it and adjust with sanding, but then i remember i'm allergic to sanding too
is cleaning your parts with soap before painting a placebo?
>>23797427No, gets off any dust/oils/release agents.
This may be heresy but any thoughts on the Zoids Realize model kits?
>>23797429>>23797427Are you supposed to soak it in soapy water before or after you've built it to loosen the joints
>>23797334I love how unlike promo vids for chinese kits the chinese revewers tend to be absolutely savage with tearing shitty chinese kits
>>23797357chances for RG Type Zero, Phantom or Griffon as retail?
Airbrushing is so fucking tedious, it's 20% actually painting and 80% cleaning
>>237974770. They're probably not even in this new Patlabor
>>23797480they're in the video game though so it's a question if they feel like it
>>23797479cleaning literally takes 5 minutes tops unless it's one of those general cleaning while painting can go from 5 minutes up to hours depending on what you're doing
>>23797485to be fair painting a part takes way less time than that so you're kinda agreeing with him
>>23797485Unless I'm doing an entire painting session only spraying 1 color then even just cleaning out my mixing cups each time takes forever
>>23797479>>23797485Cleaning as in cleaning between colors or at the end of a session? Are you using lacquers or otherwise?
Sadly, 30mm Freud's charged laser blade is too thick in the "handle" for MG hands to wield like a laser dragonslayer.Woe.
>>23797534Thats super easy to fix just sand it down a little
>>23795337Literally me except it's SNRI and my chariot is the RG wing zero
>>23795298hrududu is a backpack like the plane that goes inside 00 to make 00 raiser
>>23797559hrududu can be piloted, it's pretty directly like the g-defenser/super gundam situation.
I'm gonna put these on a MaK kit
>>23797597Even the Plamax decal?
>>23797357Are those huge black stickers I see on the wrists and chest? On an RG?Ew. Bandai did NOT give a shit about this compared to something like the Wing Zero.
>>23797613That's gloss paint, you dunce.
>>23797613It's paint
>>23797616>>23797620I don't believe it. It doesn't shine like paint. That looks like sticker reflection. I swear I see the edges of it on the chest, and the striations on the wrist look like paper.
>>23797621>It doesn't shine like paint.>>23797452They're very good.
>>23797621You're fucking insane. The only sticker there is the wire on the crotch
>>23796317is the paint chipping? you might need to sand and repaint if it isim not even sure a coat would protect it if it is chipping
What's a good working surface for when you have to cement stuff? Shit always disfigures my cutting mat when I spill
extend the deadline.. onegai
>>23797600There is a Plamax MaK kit so...
>>23797664Same rules as always, send in a timestamped photo with your entry and if enough people do it I'll extend it. It's as shrimple as that.Also this is your formal reminder that your entries are due in 3 days. No later than that, lads.
>>23797675
>>23797081>but I don't have any waterslides for the Turn A unfortunatelywhy would it need any?
>>23794979My MG Turn A wip. Still have to do all the accessories and the core fighter and the cow. I think one of my favorite parts of a build is when it's able to finally stand.
>>23797625that looks more like messy panel lining with a mold line on gray plastic to me
time to start my groupbuild entry
>>23797725kwab still a whole 48h
idk if it counts for the groupbuild but i finished the night seeker anyways
>>23797489>He doesn't use disposable jelly shot glasses from the grocery store
>>23797742Of course it counts. Ain't that Yazan's machine in MSV-R?
>>23797489It takes like 30 seconds to clean between colors
>>23797675There is one thing that makes me worry - we probably won't be able to see entries before April 2 since April 1 will probably make 4chan unusable. But its one day so I guess its fine.
>>23797747not this one, his was a night seeker i and this is the night seeker ii. i figured it might sort of work if i made up some bullshit background about it since they only made 12 of them and they were all for special operations work.
>>23797597Which kit? I just picked up a Maskenball and a Falke. I love the way they come with a random 'one of X' sets of decals. I got decals I'd never seen on both kits. Pretty cool.
Got my photographs taken just in time
>>23797797not quite, we're closedsee you next theme
>>23797800Too bad I submitted it anyways.
>>23797479not really. You just need to have thinner and cotton buds on hand.>t.uses a $20 airbrush
>>23797879I just use an old paintbrush and cleaner.
>>23797879>>23797883airbrush feels easier tbqhits so clean as well
What is this obsession with mecha designs having high heels?
>>23797628Is that the HG? It doesn't seem like a very good kit by modern standards, but the way it's looking at me is very endearing
>>23797910Nagano envy
>>23797911Looks like the master grade. It's not good by modern standards but it's fun.
All I want for Christmas is a reprint of the 1/100 NG Tieren.
>>23797910Since man has put an engine on a thing and made it go vroom, theyve all been named after women.>Cars are women.>Boats are women.>Planes are women.>Mechs are women.And women wear heels. It's that simple anon.
>>23797910Because you're a moron who doesn't understand how anatomy works. The human foot can arch and bend depending on the terrain, so mecha having separated heels is simply another instance of them mimicking the human form. Flat-footed mecha are a horrendous pain in the ass to pose in any case, and it's ultimately only The Gundam which has that feature which is immediately fixed in subsequent iterations.
>>23797918>And women wear heels. It's that simple anon.And latino men
>>23797626Yeah it's chipped paint. It happened on the front a few weeks back when I unmasked and I had to strip that whole area and wash it down. Didn't think that the backside would also have surface contamination. I really wish I just did a full strip even if it meant delaying me for 2 weeks.
bruh I don't even want to panel line metallic painted parts
>>23797915That giant middle part on the head reminded me of the trusty HGUC Zaku I, but I seeDefinitely does look fun despite its issues!
>>23797915it's probably the only good option Hizack enjoyers have
>>23797628>Peg armsUnfortunate
>>23797948the pegs at least move, unlike the HG Hizack
Guys I need a little help trying to figure something out.>See picrel kitbash of the Dagger-L with the 105 Dagger's shoulders>Dagger-L has poly cap ball-sockets to pop the arms into, while the 105 Dagger has pegs to slide the arms ontoI imagine whoever made this cut these together and painted them after gluing, but does anyone know if there's a CE kit that has ball-joint arms that the 105's shoulders can be put on?
I can't find SMP Gaomuscle anywhere AT ALL. And GaoKnight is on upwards of 200 bucks like WHAT THE HELL MAN. It's just 17cm with minimal surface details.
>>23797919is mecha a human?
How do you make clear kits not look like cheap dogshit?
>>23797998by not buying clear kits.
>>23797998>Clear kitsWell there's your problem right there
Also why is GaoIcarus not sold as a complete set? GaoFalcon alone is priced at $180 this is bullshit.
>>23797998I like mine Im building. I think white/red/yellow clear looks niceWhat kit did you get?I tried practicing on the Devil Gundam and learned if you fuck up on the dark clear plastic it looks really bad and cant be fixed.
>>23797998by painting them mattethe only reason to ever buy a clear version of a kit is if you really want it and the normal version is not available (e.g. MG Alex 2.0)
>>23798030not even gonna buy the clear GaoKing when it's even more expensive than the newest Gaoking Black
>>23798030I'd rather wait years for a reprint of the MG Alex 2.0 than buy the clear kit. And I actively WANT an MG Alex 2.0.
Chang please please upscale anything from Magiranger. Why are those small as fuck horses the same price as the BIG ASS CHANG HORSES
>>23798094It was reprinted last summer and is being reprinted again this fall
>>23798106Whatever you say, Mr. Bandai employee.
>be Bandai>make a line exclusive only for P-Bandai>charge more than an MG for 1/144 because of licensing>make them ABS for whatever reason>minimal color separation and fuckton of stickers
>>23798030>and the normal version is not available (e.g. MG Alex 2.0)Anon, what the fuck are you smoking. That thing makes regular reappearances at Hobby Lobby like every other month or so, alongside the MG F91 2.0.
>>23797967There used to be an expansion set that hobby shops gave out for free which included joint conversion parts
>finally finish my second build of the year>first attempt at weathering and I don't really like my output>don't feel like showing any pictures at allthere's always next time I guess
>>23798143post it pussy
>>23798122I haven't seen it at either HL I frequent over the past two months.
>>23798158fine, give me a few minutes while I snap some half decent shots
>>23798160I don't know what that guy is talking about. I keep an eye on my HL's stock, and I haven't seen an Alex in well over 7 months.
>mother nature said fuck you and decided to send in rain clouds for no reason tomorrow it is I guessI really fucked up with that sludge wash and lack of trigger control when it comes to chipping. Lesson learned.
>>23798136I think I found one of those conversion kits after looking it up. I might be able to do something with this if the bigger ones can fit into a standard ball socket
any kitbashing tips for the Daughtress and/or any good color schemes/distributions?
>>23798187Depends on what you're going for. That mint-green looks like it might match the Re-GZ or a Jegan, you could probably do something with that
is it worth it
>>23798193definitely
>>23798193it has so much TSF energy, it's hard not to love
>>23798198>>23798201I really don't like that they Katoki'd the proportions
>>23798203>designed by katoki>katoki’d the proportions
>>23798212The Mk V was Akitaka
>>23798203>>23798212Akitaka personally came to overview the design of the MG
Chang please make bootlegs of the SMP kits I beg you
>>23798220why didn't he tell them to not make it p-bandai
I just want a quin mantha hg, you could adjust its size and I dont care if some scale autists would neck themselves, I hope that they do.
>>23798237unless you plan on dying in the next 5 years we're gonna get onepossibly this year for the 40th anniversary but they haven't made much of a fuss about that really, but making the psyco mark II then the r-jarja really shows it's in their head.
>>23798184(me)>Looking further into ways to change our old 105 dagger's elbows and shit>Can use Ballden arms to replace elbows, if the pieces are too big I can shave them down and glue em as neededThese next few weeks are gonna be gooooood
>>23795444
>>23798240Not that anon, but I don't share your optimism. Bandai tends to reserve mobile armors for main heroes/rivals from recently premiering shows/movies. The ones that we've gotten in the past ten years were:Narrative AXi & PenelopeNightingaleZeus SilhouetteTyphoeus Gundam ChimeraDestroy GundamPsyco Gundam Mk-IIAlyzeusOf those, the only ones that weren't part of recent premieres are the Nightingale (which is a Char MS so it gets a pass by default) and Psyco Gundam Mk-II (which shares a huge chunk of its runners with that Metaverse monstrosity). And before that, you'd have to go back to 2002's GP03 Dendrobium and 2004's Psyco Gundam Mk-I to get something that wasn't released alongside a currently-airing work.As much as I love ZZ, I don't think they're going to risk the investment for it. It's Psyco Gundam sized (around 28cm height) but is also going to require completely original tooling since it won't share runners like the Psyco Gundam Mk-II.
>auctioning rare kits instead of just selling itFucking hell man this is illegal
>>23798281Ple II is one of the most beloved ZZ characters, Glemy is a major antagonist, the Quin Mantha is extremely plot relevant and holds in general way more importance than the Psyco Mark II ever does. It was cut outta the movies and even in the OG series it barely does anything for a character decidely less relevant than a main antagonist or even the main love interest, and it does nothing but die in ZZ for the same person who pilots it to pilot... the finale super weapon of Neo Zeon. The Psyco Mark II only shares runners with anything because they reused parts of it before it came out in a new original design, nothing stopping them from making up something else to use part of Quin Mantha's too. It also has one recolour they can make that maybe someone cares about already.
>>23798317when will bandai stop being cowards and make 1/144 alpha azeiru
>>23797998Paint the edges with fluorescent paints and keep it strictly under blacklight
Extremely dumb question but can they just reuse parts from the HG Kshatriyat. glanced at the Quin Mantha and Kshatriya designs and haven't looked at the latter's kit
>>23798340The problem is that Quin Mantha is supposed to be almost double height of Kshatriya
>>23798340Hell no
soon
>>23798446They're going to look great with some class armor
Another year has passed and TurnAkeks still got no new kits.
>>23798450What's with your constant crying about Turn A? It's not like you get a ton of replies out of it
>>23798451Don't care, keep suffering TurnAkeks
Thank Plamor I found the thread again! I must not have been very awake because somehow I was in the /toy Plamo thread without noticing and it is absolutely dead. I know /gpg is not That vast but hours on end without posts is eerie af.
>>23798240>next 5 years we're gonna get oneYou said this 10 years ago, I was there (here) when you said it.
I should be working on my group build entry... but instead I'm making funcannons
>>23798508Because /m/ is mostly redditors and they can't prioritize their time on 4chan over reddit.
>>23798203My guy sentinel was katokis design debut.
>>23798508It's monday morning. People sleep and and have jobs.
>>23798520Lookin sick
Gogh was a nice build, would recommend/10 for the arm ring armors I just dabbed a tiny bit of super glue on a bit of sprue to hold them while painting. What should I build next? I have MG Qubely from the previous round, PG wing Gundam with resin dress up kit or I can wait a bit to see what the next group build will be.
>>23798528Mika Akitaka designed MKV and FAZZ
>>23798446its his time
I remember that anon who thought Katoki designed Gun Ez. Apparently Katoki is a lone wolf and never work with anyone else.
>>23798508Anon, I....
>>23798574This is the only time I will excuse SMP kits being $200
>>23798570I was quite under the influence, anon or I might have noticed I was on the wrong board.
hey don't come here on groupbuild entries presentation day
>>23798629but I already had breakfast.
>>23798629That's tomorrow
>>23798509No I didn't, I posted I wanted one 10 years ago but it wasn't until the Psyco Mark II was finally announced my mindset has become "we're definitely gonna get it in the near future."
>>23798652People are starting to wake up and realize that ZZ is actually very good. Psycho mk-ii and getting a FRS puru two are good signs. I would have preferred elpeo puru though.
>>23798662This is actually pretty true on Japanese twitter. I've seen a lot of people coming back around to ZZ and Victory in the past few years. It's pretty cool.I think it has plenty of issues personally but I've always enjoyed it and think it has a lot good about it.
>>23798665Now if only we could get FRS elpeo puru as well.
>>23798671for me, it's roux
>>23798673Cute
>>23798673FRS roux louka hot glue edition
>>23798673It's crazy that Judau got her without even trying
https://schizophonic9.com/re9/hg_ziapollo.html
>>23798673I never understood the appealelle should have won the jewbowl
>>23798707Elle and Beecha were always a couple
bros i don't feel so good about my build. I might skip submitting this one and submit it for the mahou shoujo zeon theme
>>23798711I included girlpla in mine
has anybody just give up on rgs and hgs and build mgs/pgs because of how much superior 1/100 scale is?
>>23798707cool beauty typeshe has great fashion and design, I liked her voice, and she had one of the best stories of ZZ with Glemy's one-sided affection from her teasing early on. It's a nice long running but not overly forced connection that has a great payoff at the end. Also she's actually a really good pilot through the show and probably has more kills than anyone else. Elle doesn't really have many standout moments to me except just generally being fun. No hate to her or anything, I like her a lot too. I think most of the cast is likable except that Beecha and Mondo's hijinks go a bit too far and Beecha becoming captain doesn't ever really work. They all have great designs though. I think ZZ has incredibly character designs as a whole.
>>23798719>Beecha becoming captain doesn't ever really workThat's why iino gets the job afterwards.
>>23798719tomino should have killed off beecha and mondo around episode 12 or sozz would have been much less hated had he done so
>>23798721I think they needed some authority figure to still fill that roll honestly. There's very little reason Bright doesn't just stay honestly. It's just a weird decision all around from a bigger writing pov.
>>23798711>Maho Shoujo zeonFund it.
>>23798722probably agree, I think it would have been a meaningful death to pull the rest of the kids firmly into the war as their ryu jose moment but I also think he coulda at least given them more meaningful stories of redemption/maturing if he wanted to keep them alive. They do, eventually, slowly mature but not enough really and they spend too long still fucking around as little self serving rats for too long. I would probably prefer their death too though and I actually do still generally like them as characters.
>>23798718>Black hand emotesI see why he has issues with Bandai kits
how come changGODS are the only people on earth capable of handling shipping logistics
>>23798718Not really sure what the person in that image is complaining about exactly, but yeah I mostly get 1/100 kits now.Mainly for me because the differences in head size/detail specifically is extremely noticeable; HG heads are just so tiny and 'detail-less' compared to an MG head, and the head being such a focal point of a kit... I just couldn't get over that particular hang up. I think it hit me specifically with the 30mm AC6 Nightfall kit, the head is like the size of a sunflower seed, I was just kinda like..fuck this.
>>23798755I think the majority of Gundam heads work fine in 1/144 but definitely right some designs get too small to appreciate all the details
>>23798754That's how they make up for everything else being godawful
>>23798754This. I genuinely wonder how China manages to have the best goddamn shipping in the world. How is it that when I order something from China it gets here in 2-3 days whereas if I order something from Europe it takes weeks?
>>23798754You talk like the Americans that run Amazon aren't same day/next day delivering most products across huge chunks of the world. I ordered socks late Saturday night and forgot to pick my Amazon delivery day. Half of my order was delivered at noon on Sunday and the other half today while I'm at work.
>>23798776The problem with ordering from Amazon for me in a big city is that half the time it'll get stolen by a skateboarder. Cant have shit around suburban white teenagers.
>>23798776they separated your pair of socks into 2 parcels?
>>23798781Yeah it's the suburban white people on skateboards stealing everything
>>23798785It is in my area. There are no brown people. It's the bored kids who go around stealing packages around here.
>>23798785Yes anon, white people steal too. Teenagers especially.
>>23797597>Honda 350 V8Hnnnnnggn!
>>23798754How come they have more stock of KINOnotes than fucking leafland? I'm able to buy from them at a lower price WITH shipping also being cheaper with no gay sales tax. Leafland has been outta stock on many KINOnotes for a while so I just order from Aliexpress now.
>>23797797Your Gogg with girl pic was what inspired me to build mine, anon. I will vote for you!
>>23798804Unfathomably based of you, fellow gogg enjoyer.
>>23798781Weird, my neighborhood is mostly white and I don't get anything stolen. >>23798782I was ordering Darn Tough socks (as they rule, I have pairs 5+ years old that feel new. I just needed a different cut.) which you order by the pair. 7 total and I guess only 2 were located in the first warehouse.
>>23798811Cute!>>23798541Is me but I was still confused from wandering into /toy so I did missed your post initially, see that pic as an homage kek. And hell yeah! Gogg are cool, everybody should get one.
>>23798541Qubeley
>>23798821>>23798541It's an excellent gogg.
>>23798725i am already rigging the votes.
>>23798824Thank you, anon. I'm looking forward seeing yours. I won't be your competition either, GBD used my wip pic in the header but I never intended to enter it. My initial waterslide plan failed and dry rubs suck but I have some MG sized general Zeon waterslides on the way so in future pics it may sport some markings.
>>23798846I wouldn't be offended if you entered your gogg too. I do not care about the votes that much and I'm not delusional enough to think my recolored gogg is a winner. I think more goggs would be a good thing. The gogg density of the groupbuilds is always low.
>>23794977Is the /fa/ggot right /gpg/?
>>23798881Yes
>>23798718redemption?
>>23798881Is this about that shitty portable display case again?
>>23798574This was revealed at the same festival as Balteus.Soon.
>>23798888Why do people put their snapgod kinos in it, proud to show it off outside their house? Paintgods aren't like this.
>>23798902We simply do not leave the house.
>>23798902it makes pussy go pop
>>23798902Because the paint will scratch from being thrown around in the case.
>>23798916but i thought lacquer paints (mr color, gaianotes) are 100x more durable than acrylics and that wont happen?
>>23798718I usually go for the 1/100 or MG scale if it's available for a suit. Otherwise I'd go with either HG or RG depending on which is available and the quality
>>23798923You are supposed to hang those off of backpacks. Lots of PS probably greats and that is stronger than the paint. I have never understood the idea of it.
All of you will automatically forfeit and be humiliated when someone challenges you to a Gunpla Duel because you're too scared to carry around your plastic toy

>>23798933your MG would never pass the clobber test retard
>>23798933Better use a Changpla as a weapon, if your opponent does not die from a thousand cuts, from all the spikes and edges, you still win in the long run because cancer plastic and mold release.

>>23799023I'd pick either the revive or origin zaku's depending on what aesthetics you want. Why not customize a revive? I think they would be a good platform for that kind of stuff
>>23799050Ken that is rude.
im gonna shoot
>>23799085you have so much to live for though
>>23799085What model is that? I've been thinking about a standard trigger airbrush as I'm terrible about my index finger control on the traditional ones.
>>23799104It's the GSI Creos PS-290, this one is more meant for stuff like priming but I got it mainly for ergonomic reasons. They also make the PS-275 which has a 0.3mm nozzle.
>>23799114Hmm I'll have to keep that one in mind. I was looking at the Swallowtail previously but them doing a custom with the YTer I like makes me suspicious as I can't trust his opinion fully now.
Just got finished snapping together my first non-Bandai girlpla. This was so much better than the two Figure Rise Standard kits I'd done that I don't know how Bandai gets away with it. Like for one, it came with enough parts to actually make both bodies instead of having a fucking torso left over. And second, it came with ENOUGH BALL JOINT PARTS FOR EVERY FUCKING HAND. WHY THE FUCK CAN'T BANDAI DO THAT? Third, five preprinted faceplates. Who the fuck actually wants to have to apply the waterslide eyes themselves and have them come out fucking lopsided, or even worse, go on right but be paranoid for the rest of your fucking life about them NOT being on right and you just can't tell without breaking out a fucking quantum telescope or some shit to measure it.Still probably gonna get the FRS Tifa Adill at some point though. As shit as they are, they still have a legal monopoly on their own IP, and there ain't shit I can do about that.
>>23799118Bandai makes cheaper, simpler girlpla. They've also been making it for less time than their competitors so it makes sense that theirs would be better engineered.
>>23799085>single action
>>23799162it's double action, first bit of trigger pull opens the air valve and then a second, stiffer stage pulls the needle back
>>23794979Working on a crossbone x1 kai kai. I am doing some color changes to make it look less like X1 with a skull on its chest.
>>23798785>>23798790>>23798791white seppos can be niggers all the same
>>23799185Just like you
OH GOD PLEASE BRING THIS TO US P-BANDAI PLEASE I BEG YOU
you can only do so much when it comes to posing this kit
at the very least, it can actually lift it's rifle and shield without much issues
>>237984462spooky
>>23799191Your fine anon, Other than the odd retail alternative destiny Dancouga that was on the store.The SRWOG line from SMP is the only one that has the mandate of heaven and is allowed to part the ocean and be sold in the US Premium bandai store.
>>23798446Where can I find a good guitar for Mr. Bones to hold?
>>23799287Pic related maybe?
Have changs made a bootleg version of this stand?
>>23799311Yes>>23799310cute
>>23799314Does it still fall under action base 1 when looking it up in Ali?
>>23799311>>23799315Just look up "action figure base" or "action figure stand" or some combination thereof and you'll get more than your fair share of knockoff action bases, many of which are obvious knockoffs of the Bandai stuff.
>>23799340>immediately find onethanks senpai
how many hours until cutoff?
>>23799118>five preprinted faceplates. Who the fuck actually wants to have to apply the waterslide eyes themselvesGood luck painting that shit
>>23799118>I don't know how Bandai gets away with it.$130,- model vs $40,- model, gee I wonder where the difference is.I have some GSC kits and their plastic and engineering does not match Bandais and you know it. I'm not a corpo dick slurper but you just could have posted you girlpla without the bitching part because you clearly don't know how good you have it.
>>23799046There is a resin one on e2046. Very expensive though.
>>23799358NTA, if Bandai make nothing but 5 dollars sub-Entry Grade like this kit, you will bitch about it, too.
>>23799365They have been at it for some 45, anon and unlike a lot of modelling companies they do continuous reprints, including of their older stuff. That is a lot of kits to choose from before you get bored, or do you only want to snap the latest thing(tm)
>>23798718>>23798886redditors are fucking subhuman
Will a light brush of mark softer get rid of the clear part of waterslides? Or at least make it less visible?

>the transformation is literally just the main mobile suit limping inside the mobile armorkek
>>23799371Pfftt imagine snapping the shiny new thing made in the 2000s. True /m/en build these dogshit Zaku from the 1980.
>>23799430
>>23799430>>23799434I remember alot of gay men pose exactly like this for the shemale on male anal sex webcam on Onlyfans.
>>23798698That's one small KMF.
>>23799387the jews stole my fucking paint
>>23799365I unironically think Bandai should make more EGs.
>>23799553I like the Nu but it was a weird choice for one of the first EGs, how many kids have seen CCA?
>>23799561Nu is simply one of the best gundams in terms of looks, cartoons are not that relevant
>>23799569Can't argue with that
>>23799561kids get what their parents buy for them
>>23799553That Build Strike is just a sub-EG. It lacks even the most basic function of an EG kit.
>>23799561>how many kids have seen CCA?Alot. Children program gets rebroadcasted all the time. They also uploaded the movie on youtube recently.
>>23799358>plastic and engineering does not match Bandais and you knowWow I heckin love KPS plastic and how its 100 times harder to clean up vs regular PS just so my hamhands ass can manhandle it a little more rough!!!!!
Why haven't you joined builders note /gpg/?https://www.gn-app.com/en?utm_source=gunpla&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=mg_2026Also lmao blud finally got sponsored by bandai after he stopped making negative reviews.

>>23799287mic released some 1/12 guitar kits recentlyhttps://www.hlj.com/1-12-scale-puripura-figure-play-electric-guitar-vol-1-mii27211https://www.hlj.com/1-12-scale-puripura-figure-play-electric-guitar-vol-2-mii27215
>>23799651I'm too embarrassed to show off my shoddy builds. /gpg/ is fine since it's functionally anonymous.
>>23799553EG's are kinda cool, I like the way they color separate parts that would be stickers on HG's. Of course with an immense amount of detail loss on other parts but it's still neat.
>>23799977The detail loss usually makes them more accurate to the show they are from, which is good for the autists that prioritize that. Also it was a fun kit to build one afternoon with my brother who doesn't do models.
>>23799434if they just had the legs do a 180 degree bend at the knee for the combined form it would be much less offensive
