>>23891362>Then how come its thicker on the HG and EG and not as easy to cut off just like that?lower injection pressures on HG molds, hence needing larger gates.
Thank you for the new thread, newthreadguy. I havent been working on my entry cause I’m cleaning my room.
>>23891372Working on the Stickler Studio Kampfer. My first resin kit, and outside certain joints being pretty loose, and a few broken parts that I had to super glue up, it's going decently, finished priming everything, and now I'm figuring out a color scheme. I like this base deck tan/flat white mix that makes it look like a test kit, which I I'll need to highlight and use contrasts on to actually get it it look like something other than primed gray. It's definitely going to take a while though.
>>23891394Source for that or are you just making theories out of your ass?
Local store has the CCA MSV Stark JeganAt last I'll be able to make the proper Akitaka Stark
>>23891368I'll do a Charmander just for you new thread guy.
>>23891422Sweet, thanks. I like the shading you did on Bulbasaur's bulb.
Tomorrow
>its ok when Bandai does it.
>>23891480I don't really like that thoughbeit.
The local stationery shop has these relics for sale. I'm not going to buy them because I have no luggage space, but I thought everyone should know about them.
>>23891552I'm actually looking for that rising gundam too (to cannibalize for parts)
>>23891552>color almost fadedholy shit how long have those things been there?
>>23891372I finished my first garage kit. I fucked up a lot but I leaned a lot as well.
>>23891399hagen-poiseuille law
>>23891564Depending on storage condition, it might not be as long as it seems. My local hobby shop has this super strong lighting at a particular spot and some gundam seem movie kits' boxes got real washed out from being directly under it for probably a year max.
>>23891579Looks good. Not familiar with GKs, are they resin cast? Do you just paint them the same way with usual plamo?
>>23891564Been passed around across storefronts since 1994
>>23891592>gundam seemgundam seed
>>23891564Probably since 1995. I once obtained a Weiner Forver V2 from that same shop, many years ago.
>>23891480No it isn't.
>>23891475
Does the upcoming Exia Repair still reuse the old slightly fixed mold from Avalanche or completely new one
>>23891552i'd get the maxter just for the surfboard
>>23891480What the fuck is this thing? Did they tailor make it for China or something?
some minor progress on the spaceship. i sanded off some of the primer colour and it gave me a pretty interesting colour scheme. i was originally going to paint it white with a grey geometrical pattern but im seriously considering a grey/ black more organic pattern now
>>23891772this is the type of color scheme i was originally going for
>>23891723It has a 3mm hole unlike the regular RG, so there will be some new parts on the waist at least. The left arm will definitely be entirely new as well.The rest of the frame is most likely reused though.
Y'all gonna hang out with your buddy Bandai, right?
>>23891825You can hang yourself from one of those palmtrees, Bandai.
>>23891406>At last I'll be able to make the proper Akitaka StarkIt has the same feet as Katoki Stark Jegan lmao. The thing is a poor imitation at best.
>>23891837okay and?
>>23891825can't wait for them to show us nothing
>>23891552I always wanted the MG 1/100 scale thimble and chrome duck, thanks!
>>23891864Well yeah? There's literally not a single fucking indiction that they're going to announce anything. They have NEVER announced or shown anytning new for the English-speaking streams. You'd be retarded to even have the tiniest hope that they're going to do any model kit announcements.
>>23891825I want to hang ALL bandai execs. And I want to do it in public too.
>>23891475>>23891709It really is Avid FUCKProbably will be my first GSC kit as well
>>23891883this game fucking sucked terrible overwatch clone with a lazy gundam reskinproof that you faggots will slurp up anything with the slightest connection to the franchise
>>23891581>Asks for a source on why the flags are thicker and more prominent on hgs and egs, says some shit about lower injection pressures for hg molds.>Here’s the theory broKek.
>>23891752Its the astray red dragon chang edition.
>>23891914>why is sky blue?????>uh, because reyleigh scattering>REEEEEEEE(literally u)
>>23891862I know you are trying to justify your purchase so, drop that attitude.
>>23891934>source on that?>uh oh heres the theory bro.Kek thought so.
4180 yen for a manlet Gundam. Yikes. We are at the point of no return.
>>23891936Ok so? You dont get to tell him what he should buy.
>>23891941I'm not telling to ditch. I'm just saying that it is not a "proper Mika Akitaka Stark Jegan" like he is claiming it to be. Next, i'm gonna say water is wet you and fags might argue about it, too.
>>23891943You clearly didnt read and understand what he posted. Now you dont go around here policing people on what they should add to their box fort. Fucking fag.
>>23891939> retail while the MG is PB>4180 yen, just 600 yen cheaper than the original price of the MG equivalent>have better hand grips for the shotelBandai hates 1/100 scale, huh
Ok out of curiosity because this autism has happened way longer than I cared for so I went to google in Japanese just to get the full details. Yes, it's a safety flag, it has fuck all to do with injection method and blah blah. The term is [ガンプラ] 安全フラッグ literally safety flag. It's also sometimes known as バンダイエッジ bandai edge because it's more prominent in bandai products.
Continuing on with my resurfaced gunpla memories from youth (which, to be clear, is >15 years ago).I'm trying to hunt down two gundam from my memory>some kind of blue/green gundam with a trillion turret panels that open upOne would think this is Gundam Heavy Arms Custom (EW). Except! It didn't have an MG until 2016. Maybe it was the HG? But I remember it being bigger...>Some kind of black gundam with wings that cover up into a shellAgain, one would think this is one of the deathscythe hells, but neither of the shells look as complete as I remember. If anything, I remember the shell looking more like Master Gundams. But MG master gundam doesn't have the cover up gimmick, only HG! Maybe everything was bigger from my memory.Thank you for your time reading my probably wrong memories.
>>23891950In all fairness, it has a full set of expressive hands, the joints are fully molded in KPS and the sculpt quality is night and day compares to old Wing HGs. If this thing was 3000 yen, it would be one of the best 1/144 release.
>>23891962I think you bought 1/100 HG Leopard Gundam
>>23891962Endless Waltz had 1/100 and 1/144 HG releases (this includes Heavyarms Custom, I own the old 1/144 HG), and Master Gundam's 1/100 HG has the manipulable cape wings (I know, I have one).
>>23891967nah, insufficient turrets. It definitely had heavyarms' "wow everything is gun" feeling>>23891969my best guess now is everything looked bigger when I was a kid.I do think it was probably a deathscythe hell though
>>23891939Does it include the beam cloak that the MG also has? If so, that would explain the pricing.(We'll never get the special cobra shield again, will we?)
>>23891973Yes it does. The cloak is made of the soft paper-like material.
Quattre is my favourite twink and i want to have sex with him.
>Even the cloak is better than the MG oneMGbros...
>>23891989>wrong color>the neck piece not only looks wrong but also suspiciously looks like a solid chunk of plasticI mean, credit where it's due, it being malleable is a huge improvement, but if it fails to look like in the movie has it truly accomplished anything?
how do I buy or preorder this? it looks terrible but I want it
>>23891950At this point, you better just hope that chink keeping making 1/100
>>23891950Maybe.
What's up with Artpla prices? Pic goes for like 90€ where I'm from. It's doesn't even have any moving parts and it's double the price of an MG.
>>23892002It is not wrong. The cloak is brown in the anime.
>>23892002The color looks pretty accurate to me.
>>23892020just get the SMP
>>23892006it's getting a retail release. they're just letting you preorder it early through p bandai
>>23892020The robot itself is 27cm tall and the girls are in 1/24 scale ( same scale with Hexagear Governor ) so that alot of content to build. The price is 6000 yen MSRP so whoever you are buying from probably marked up the shit out of it.
>>23891936I don't need to justify my purchase you schizoI bought it because I wanted it
>>23892043At that point you could just buy the SMP. It can transform and pose.
>>23892046Wake me up when the SMP has Noriko and Kazumi figs
>>23891973HGAC Armadildo will be a p-bandai release
my chinese buddy got his buddy gunpla shop owner to snag me the hg alyzeus for 110 usd pretty stoked but damn idk if i got the room that box is massive
Another gimmicky combining Getter kit.For Getter Dragon this time.
>>23891883There are private servers for it, pc only last I heard.
>sudden FMP modelbut why. that series is shite.
>>23892117There are alot of Ebikawa fans willing buy his robots.
>>23891372FAG finally done. I feel like it took quite a long time, but then again, I split it into the rx-78 and the armor on its own.For anyone that missed it, I put magnets into all the armor pieces that normally use the weird gel sheet thing so that they can be taken off and attached more easily.
>>23892131bro I implore you stop adding pink to your white colors
>>23892131The TB color scheme works great on it. I'm especially fond of the orange lines and missiles, the high saturation really draws the eye.
>>23892016>Better than the 1/100 kit in every possible wayThe HG's superiority is getting too alarming.
>>23892132A fag without pink is like an archangel without his wings
>>23892133Ended up only using the dry transfers from the kit for the armor. I tried out a few decals for the twin beam rifle's shield but none of them fit very well so ended up keeping it plain.>>23892132I implore you to fuck off.
>>23892138Last pic because I really like the orange lines on the butt of the backpack cannon.>>23892136It's not even pink, it's a purple primer under blue white.
>>23892069Do we know what the individual ships look like yet? At least its cape makes more sense than whatever the Getter-1 had>t. owns that and the GunbusterHalf-tempted to get this because I sure do like the Getter Dragon, although I don't know whether it's worth the MSRP price
>>23892140>>23892138>>23892133>>23892131Looks cool to me. Nice to see someone doing something different with their preshading technique. I swear, if people in this thread aren't busy resisting paint with every fiber of their being, they're putting as much effort as possible into trying to get their paintjobs to look like every other fucking paintjob on the internet. Keep grinding, purple shadow anon, you've got the goods.
>>23892154Thanks! It's actually not preshading, I prime the entire part in purple and then add white as a highlight to the upper section of each panel, sometimes with one shade, sometimes with multiple. It's closer to modulation in that sense.
Non-Bandai international markup.Tested shipping to my country: 7065 yen with a 1000 yen markup.
>>23892145
I do colored preshading all the time and nobody ever says shit
>>23891594Yeah, they are 100% resin cast. Unlike plastic sanding is mandatory if you buy a cheap Chinese recast, the surface will have tons of tiny holes and imperfections. Otherwise you need to clean them up before painting to remove the mold release, the painting steps remains the same but with a lot of masking.
>>23892184you don't have what the kids call aura
>>23892187>>23891594I suggest getting an ultrasonic cleaner if you're serious about working with resin. Fill it with IPA and let it do the hard work removing all the mold release.>>23892188I used to but they patched the black eye exploit
>>23892189That's what I did but I used purple power. Never tried IPA. Is IPA cheaper?
>>23892193I don't know much about purple power but IPA is pretty cheap.
soon ready to be painted
>>23892189>I suggest getting an ultrasonic cleaner if you're serious about working with resin. Fill it with IPA and let it do the hard work removing all the mold release.Don't put IPA in an ultrasonic retard. Even if it's small, there's a chance the off gassing concentrates enough vapor to ignite. The manuals warn you not to put any flammables in the vat. >>23892193Just use purple power or simple green and let it soak for a couple hours and scrub it with a toothbrush. Or use an ultrasonic-safe cleaner if you really want to use an ultrasonic cleaner. Most of the ultrasonic cleaning is mechanical anyway. And prolonged IPA exposure will damage resin, whether it's the UV kind or cast kind.
>>23892218Live a little.
>>23892225If you insist on using IPA at least put it in a separate sealed container, lid on, and then put it in the ultrasonic with a water bath. I have a similar set up for my resin prints but the cleaning is only so-so. Probably not worth the price of an ultrasonic cleaner.
>>23892232I just remove it after I'm done using it
I spilled some of lacquer paint on my pants.how the fuck do I clean this? thinner doesn't work.
>>23892011*1/87
>>23892211Beautiful hand.
>>23892243shut the fuck up already
>>23892171>same thing they did with the Bear>not even trying to hide the arms for G-EagleBut this is probably the cheapest way to get a Dragon, and it'll fit well with my Getter-1...
>>23892241those are now your painting pants, sorry man time to retire.
>>23892241Airbrush cleaner, could work, but that stuff is the same as plastic cement not sure if it's a good idea.
>>23891475>"Tomorrow, we're announcing more than ten times the items that were revealed at the pre-festival"
>>23892241What are they made of? If it's any part polyester you're not getting it off.
>>23892211No Yakult bottle in sight so not ready for paint.
>>23892338dont worry the centerpiece connecting the two sides is a yakult bottle
>>23892241immediately soak in lacquer thinner and pick up the color with kitchen paper. then wash at 60 degrees immediately after. that way i could remove some smaller lacquer stains entirely
>>23892355This will kill polyester
>>23892241This Anon knows >>23892248 No matter what, you prolly not going to get that stain out completely.
>>23892351Nice, you have you Ma.K ship an armored Yakult bottle core! Looking forward to the painted product.
Making my own shitty spray booth. Is there enough space in the back to properly make the desired amount of of vacuum cavity there? Going to be using foam and caulk to make a ghetto-ish seal around it and then have to think of how to hold the filter in place while being replaceable. Any other feedback is appreciated.
>>23892422Use magnets to keep the filter in place.
any tips on kitbashing the old 105 Dagger with other kits like the Dagger L or Windam?
Which is more gooder?
>>23892211nice, kinda reminds me of pic.just finished doing a nato black base on my luna gans so kinda in the same boat. I just need to take a break before going back to airbrushing.
>>23892465
>>23892444How would you put magnets on the filter? Nice trips
That new Laevatein looks pretty nice…
>>23892509Double sided tape them to the filter. Idea is just to make it less futzing with the booth when you swap the filter, as then you will swap it when needed instead of putting it off. Speaking of, what material do I grab for replacing the filter in those Chinese booths
>>23892531Well, they make filters specifically cut and purposed for those chinesium booths. But I'm told you can make your own out of Aquarium Filter Media for less.
>>23892422Make sure you use a real blower fan and not the shitty pc ones the chinese booth use as they pull significantly more air.
i'm so fucking excited for those...!
>>23892546what's the point of blacking them out we already know what they are
>>23892551Eroticism.
>>23892472ain't you fucking funny
anyone here done preorders on aliexpress? Wondering if it's worth it at all, do preorder prices tend to be lower or is it just about calling first dibs?
>>23892545I got an actual blower that's rated for like just under 500 cpm or so, with a 6 inch dryer duct hose>>23892531My filter was a regular home air intake filter for about $6 at home depot and seemed to be the perfect size
How viable is acrylic hand painting a clear beam shield, either with brush or sponge?
>>23892559I found that pre-ordering stuff there is generally not worth it. Some vendors who didn't put the item up for pre-order and only got them at a later date can sell them for a tad cheaper. And with Chinese stuff on that place there really isn't a street date for the stuff. Some vendors can get the item this month, while others the next or even later. If it's the release month I recommend you check out various vendors to see which one has the item in stock first before making the purchase. And even then I get in contact with them to make sure they actually have it in stock before paying them anything. If they messed it up, I've been reimbursed every time.For example, the third party Gelgoog III is supposed to have been released last month. Most vendors still have pre-orders only. I've found a couple that has it in stock, but I haven't contacted them yet. You have to keep in mind the release date for this stuff in China is not our release date. I found that places like Taobao are more strict with release dates. There the Gelgoog III has been in stock for a couple weeks now. But something more Western/world facing like AliExpress just takes a while to get the gears going.
>>23892578If you have to ask you clearly don't have enough skill to get a smooth result. But you should try it nonetheless, if you don't do stuff because people in the internet say it is to hard, you'll never get anything done.
>>23892552Really cool they're doing the alternate design for the Advanced Hazel feet. I'm hoping they're also including an alternate visor that is open too, that'd be nice.I've been meaning to buy the bits and pieces needed for a Hazel Rah Second Form. Only bought the Gaplant booster so far. I don't see that getting bootlegged anytime soon.But this will hopefully make the whole endeavor much cheaper. That bootleg HG Hazel Custom made by the other manufacturer should arrive any day now. I've built a lot of HG Hazels so if I notice any major defects I'll be sure to let everyone know.
>>23892578Maybe if you use opaque paint. Translucent paint you need to do it right in one single layer, since overlapping layers will produce different opacities
Any recommendations for painting HG hyaku shiki? I want as close to "real" gold as possible, extremely shiny.
>>23892664Gold clear coat over a chrome base
>>23892664Use polishing compound
>>23892664I suggest this layer order>Gloss black>Alclad ii chrome>Aqua gloss clearcoat>Some transparent goldIt's important that the transparent paint cannot react with the chrome. You either need to seal it off, or use a non-lacquer clear gold.>>23892678HG hyaku shiki isn't plated
>>23892131>>23892133>>23892138>>23892140this looks dopegreat job anon
Takara better make RMZ of the large zoids so I wouldn't have to buy the fragile HMM trash
>>23892706They already did iron kong
>>23891372Finished the geno saurer. Good kit. I hated the prepainted eyes. Ended up color matching the rest of the metal to them to make it less jarring. I deviated a lot from the planned color scheme because I didn't like how a lot of it looked in person. It was just too much brown.Also noticed I missed cleaning up some of the panel lining in the pic.
.
>>23892714The larger ones like Gojulas, Death Stinger, Salamander, etc. They just released Red Horn and it's much more stable than the HMM it's actually ridiculous.
>>23892733None of those seem like unrealistic expectations. They're not much bigger than kong is.
>>23892724where do people get itty bitty scale pieces like that? or is it photoshop and I'm being arthur conan doyle
>>23891772>>23892211a kit bash? looks pretty cool, have fun with it.
>>23892752hand made or gacha or daiso
Anyone who owns a cutting mat that isn't covered in solvent damage, burn marks, tape scraps and/or paint stains is a tremendous faggot
>>23892770don't forget he big crusted lumps of dried superglue so I can't even lay anything on it flat properly
>>23892719Still looks quite nice, good job
>>23892458Chinese is KOing Dagger L, Strike Dagger and also retooling the current Bandai moulds into a new 105 Dagger.
holy shit, even the japs are talking about kit accuracy and respecting the artist's wishes!https://x.com/savan_savan/status/2061910278930128950https://x.com/GetWild2019/status/2061423675241603374
>>23892752the girlpla is much closer to the camera that's why it looks larger than the table.
>>23892904actually they're talking about the box art and how modern box art is portraying the gunpla, not the design the gunpla is based off of, using the new Sandrock as an example of the stepped down mold on the forearms ending up on the boxart instead of the smooth forearm design of the originallike always it's just a bunch of literally whos on twitter saying nothing and you are just a weirdo, legitimately find something to do with your life other than being a dramabait retard reposting irrelevant twitter takes to a mongolian throatsinging forum
>>23891372I just think these were really neat and way more than worth the price. I am definitely getting a black pair.
>>23892926nta but man those old painted boxarts are so kino
>>23892945absolutely, I got nothing against them. Lots of old beautiful boxart for sure. I love the old Crossbone Vanguard kit boxes.
>>23891372this rat bastard drew my blood, i just wanted him to come to my birthday party
>>23892602>clearly don't have enough skillWell duh that's why I asked. Either way sponging a spoon has been giving some shitty results so I might try messing with layers at the cost of weird opacities like >>23892618 said, or I might give up and just use a spray can in a parking lot somewhere

Is the Yolopark Eva-01 any goodOr must it be the RG
>>23892776I am always amazed by how good the RMZ kits are. Then I wait 6 months to do another and am amazed again.
>>23893028>>23892776Forgot my pic
>>23893007I heard it's good and BIG. Apparently the blokee ones are also pretty good and closer to RG size.
>>23892980Sorry anon, that was not meant to be mean. There are just a lot of people who ask, can I do x or would y work? You have some basic understanding of things it seems so why not just try, worst thing is you bodge your shield but you don't have to post so nobody will know.
>>23893030>yellow effect partsSo it's the S2 Geno Saurer and not the OG
>>23891372Fun build. Finally got around to putting it together. Some touch ups I need to do still, and I need to get the effects parts together, yet too. Overall, been really enjoying the RMZ line
>>23893040the biggest con with blokees is that their accuracy is questionable, especially on anime kits.
>>23892578This isn't exactly the same thing but it might give you some ideashttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XoVqbarcH70&t=710s
>>23893030That kit looks awesome anon, I'm jelly because it was probably fun but also they ain't cheap.
>>23892719>>23893028Same. They're really enjoyable
>>23893113This kit was the raven custom. The regular one comes with the water guns.>>23893119Hobby lobby consistently has them. This one cost me 50 bucks. Still not cheap but it's not bad. Nothing good ever has gunpla low prices attached to it without some horrible tradeoff.
>>23893119I've bought a few of them. If you catch them on Hobby Lobby's 40% off sale, then you can get some sweet deals. Also be mindful of stuff they just flat-out misprice. I found an RG Destiny there for 15 bucks. Wasn't even a kit I was interested in, but it was such a killer deal that I couldn't resist.
How do I prep the head for painting? Do I cut parts of it so the face can just slide into the helmet (after applying cement)?
>>23893139I always paint the face first, then mask it off entirely before assembling the rest of the head. Then I can cement and paint the head without worrying about fucking up the paint on the face.
I wanna get a Messer but I'm torn between the Gayman use and the regular one
>>23893147Gawman's looks to be the better kit overallRegular Messer is cool but for as much effort went into articulation the shoulder swings are pretty awful and the back skirt and front crotch plate are annoyingly loose for zero reasonoverall the original Messer is one of the weirder HGs Bandai's made to me, it's got a ton of spare parts and Gawman's Messer nor the other variants didn't help make it make sense why it was designed that way. It's both high effort but also all the effort went into an insane ab crunch that's only any good if you want it to touch its toes. It's just weird in every way it can be weird.
God the F91 is a pretty mobile suit. I can't wait for the HG kit I ordered to come in tomorrow when I have the day off
>>23893133They should've called it Ambient Custom since Ambient made the Geno Saurer red.
[Good News] The Sandrock has been de-Katoki'd
>>23893159that seam line on the kit's forearm is a total disrespect to his design kek.
which gundam has a cool energy shield
Will I ever be happy with my gunpla skills? Intersecting panel lines fuck me up so bad.
>>23893167F91, Victory Gundam, Destiny(CE), Strike Freedom(CE), Infinite Justice(CE), Exia(00)
>>23893171I was thinking of something like f91's. Exia doesn't have an energy shield does it
>>23893159Katoki still drew the OVA lineart, but yes, it is less of his model kit styling from post 2000 onwards.The larger shoulders are welcomed.
>>23893159We will probably get one release per year to drag it out until the new Gundam Wing anime is released. We may get pbandai versions of the Glory of Defeated variants.
>>23893159>>23893166I dunno why bandai couldn't just slide mold two piece of plastic for the fore arm, seeing how it's practically a rectangular block up til the elbow portion, and just sandwich a polycap inside where you can insert the joint, like how they used to design fore arms.
how long does it take for alclad gloss black base to cure? it's been like 3 days and it still feels kinda sticky
>>23893188not that long you sprayed too thick
>>23893172It doesn't. 00 is the one that has a GN Field.
>>23893188Heil Dubs!A while back some anon suggested that having ABS break from lacquer, primer not drying properly and other such things was a sign that you angered Plamor. I'm almost starting to believe he was right.
>>23893188Pretty sure it takes like a week or something. Well general consensus is that it's shit with how long it fucking takes to cure.
>>23892979Praise Plamor!
The best gloss black is apple barrel acrylic. Unironically. Super glossy and latex looking finish, dries and cures fast.
ayiiieeee this is gonna be really bad without a stand.
>>23893206it comes with one, and stands fine without it
P-Bandai Huckebein 30th when?
>>23893215turned into SMP instead
>>23893215I want my Grungust first
>>23893235>transformable robotOh nonononono....
>>23893238With how kinda bullshit Wind Gust and Grust Lander are, I'd be more than happy with it just being the regular Grungust form, and doubling down on the big sword and doing a cool effect part for the Boost Knuckle
>>23893239Fully transformable and with tons of effect parts. That would be 10,000 yen, sir.
>>2389324110k yen? Sounds good to me, seriously.
>>23893212What I'm trying to say is that it's going to be bad if you just leave it standing on the shelf. Sure, it can stand, but over time it's going to get very loose.
>>23893241>only 10,000 yenSign me up
>>23893241That's the price of a bitch-basic 13cm Mazinger Z plamo these days, bro.
>>23893241More like 18k yen lol and P-BANDAI. Such is SMP.
>>23891962There's a chinkpla version of this one now
>>23893252>13cmHow is it smaller than the Sentai plamo kits
was this ever recast
>>23892904The japs only throw a fit when their precious Katoki got disrespected while ignored almost every other. They reap what they sow.
>>23893149>overall the original Messer is one of the weirder HGs Bandai's made to me, it's got a ton of spare partsWhich kit did you build? F01 and F02 don't have spare parts, only F02 Naked/Commander type has many spare parts.
>>23893315I built all of them.I'm not sure what you're talking about anon. Every single one has an entire runner duplicated where the majority of parts are wasted except like, two.
>>23893244joints don't magically loosen if you don't play with them.
>>23893326joints will loosen over time even in just a standing posegravity is exerting force 24/7 bro, the joints are never fully at rest
>>23893326Depending on the pose, gravity can have that effect too. Just the gradual friction from drooping can cause loosening.
So just to confirm, the chemical composition of a gloss black base doesn't matter for chrome coats, right? I could use enamel gloss, or even spray a gloss coat over any kind of black, and it would still work? Or do I explicitly have to pick a gloss black that will chemically react to the chrome?
>>23893285maybe but not in any readily available capacityyou can find the originals crop up every now and then for hundreds and hundreds of dollarssure do wish I could get the zorin soul but I don't want it as bad as the asking price has been my whole life
>>23892926modern box arts are based on gunpla modelsartist gets photo of pose with model for reference
>>23893339thanks for reiterating what was said
>>23893325>Every single one has an entire runner duplicated where the majority of parts are wasted except like, two.Yeah you watched 5 Schizophonic blogs therefore you built all 5 of them. Messer F don't have an entire spare head and chest. They have a spare shoulder spike, Minelayer has a spare backskirt from the regular F02. Commander type has the most excessive amount of junk since it is meant to built in two ways. I can show you the sprues right here. The chest and head are one and done.
>>23893347And here are Minelayer's junk part for transparency's sake.
>>23893347no I built all of them therefore I built all of themF01, the normal release kit, does. Not sure why you said "Messer F" because, you know, they're all Messer Fs except Gawman's.Yeah you're right, the iterations actually did remove some elements of the sprues. Not sure why you asked which of course then, I forgot, but that fact the sprue never came into actual relevancy is precisely the weird part regardless, you stupid schizo looking for a fight.Anyway here are 3 of my Messers, I totally never built them haha you're right bro. Swear to god it's always just gotta be some dipshit ESL retard trying to argue about nothing for no reason.
why chinasama hates messerwhere is my bootleg
Had chinks gotten tired of making Zoids or what? It's been years since the Berserk Fury Freedom Gundam CAS
>>23892752in this case I suspect it's ai generated or custom made
>>23893351>the iterations actually did remove some elements of the spruesBut you just said all of them have the same amount of junk and now they aren't? Did you forget to take your meds?
>>23893361It's called forgetting because I built these a while ago anon. I think you need to start taking meds.
less than ten minutes
>>23893367>stream delayed because of equipment issuesAHHHHH
>>23893372Wotafa ate the cables
nice hg bro
>>23893367Right, they're supposed to announce that new Super Robot anime project here too.
>>23893372IT'S UP
I hope they finally give us a M.D Geist kit
Minideon
>>23893384It's quite cute
Shit man, did those Getter 1 and Gunbuster sell that well?
Oh fuck, Kabutack.
>the dipshit from the Nadesico film before Gekiganger Aw man
Did they announce Moderoid Avid yet
>>23893395A minute ago
OH SHIT, NANAJIN
>>23893398holy shit KINO is BACKLIAM-SAMA PLEASE FUCK MY WIFE
Great, now you too can pretend to be retarded for multiple years.
Fucking finally, Tauburn.
>Wings of Rean in 2026B-B-Based?!
Where is this Centaur mech from?
>>23893404Concrete Revolutio
Shiiit, I actually asked for this.>>23893404Concrete Revolutio
>Pacific RimWHAT
>>23893409Not the first time Good Smile have done Pacific Rim kits, they did a big Gypsy Danger and Cherno Alpha years back.
>>23893409>full lineAHAHA, EAT UNKOPLA, BANDAI
>articulated kaijuTOKUBROS WE WON
TOEIBROS WE WONSENTAIBROS WE WON
>Plamatea nowIzanagi, please.
>Cherno alpha and Crimson typhoon also confirmedNeat, although i imagine this is going to be smaller than the plamax kits and still require a good bit of painting.
>Ledouche
Zero interest in that one
>>23893418Might be tempted to pick up Crimson Typhoon, it's pretty neat.
Brickroid potty break
>>23893418>GYPSYFRIENDSHIP WITH BAMCO HAS ENDEDNOW MUST BEST FRIEND IS MODEROID
Avid is the only good announcement so far. It's really fucking big, larger than Sazabi.
I guess that's it as far as plamo goes.
>full Dragonar OP remake with the BrickroidsThat was cute
Not really into Brickroid but that Dragonar promo was pretty great.
>>23893436>it even has that iconic gear shift sequenceSo cute, I might be tempted to swallow them.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jlj4U-cc8wISeems like the bootleg Exia R4 is pretty solid. If Bandai hasn't bothered fixing the limited front kick of the RG this might end up being the better product.
>>23893383Maybe next year
Equus, Nanajin and Orguss 2.0 for me, the rest was mostly whatever or expected stuff.
The biggest surprise: no Granzort plamo reveal.
Good thing you can use the Sheik Mainland stuff ans stand-in grunts against Avid. You will feel the size difference kek
>>23893330>>23893328please take a middle school level physics course and refresh yourself on static friction
>>23893473please take a higher level physics course before trying to correct people with your retarded midwittery
OmgIt is happening !
>>23893473He is partially right. The weight can put a toll on the joints, but it is not applicable to every joint.
All the announcements. Equus, Tauburn, and Kabutack for me.
>>23893490>Cherno is INLET'S GOOOO
>>23893490>no dolls nestGuess I'm still waiting.
>>23893490I'm impressed by lil' Ideon, they managed to make it transformable without relying on parts swapping like the SMP kit. The trade-off is that there's no truck mode, considering it's the size of HG.
>>23893495They already announced that, most of the stream was new stuff
>>23893495already announced
>>23893501That's a prototype from like a year ago. I wanted a release date.
Xi Ver Ka when
>>23893490>Broken BladeExtremely turbo based
>>23893439The first Linda figure we even get is a minifigure on top of a carrier ship. It's great!
>>23893508for 3rd movietrust the plan
Are microsol and microset safe to use on plated kits? Will they strip the plating?
How's the Frame Arms Gullzwerg? A local shop is selling it from 28 bucks and looks kinda cool.
>Moderoid M6 Bushnel and Dark BushnelFUCK YEAH!
>>23893490I was hoping for Arroganz along with Avid, because I'm sure that MobuSeka is more well known than OreAku. Still cool though.
>>23893133hobby lobby has the berserk fuhrer??
Bandai bros....We lost...
>>23893543No. They only have some of the RMZ line.
I have problems with painting ABS. It just likes to weaken and crack even with minimum pressure and I saw that a jp youtuber use Gaia Notes Multiprimer to coat it before paint it with lacquer. But they only sell JUMPWIND multiprimer here, how is it for anyone who has used it? I heard some bad stuff about Jw in generalI want to make sure this can actually protect ABS from lacquer and it's actually good before I buy it since it's quite pricey.
bamcotroons move onthis is now MODEROID neighborhood
here's your future moderoid plamo bro
>>23893490>tiny transforming IdeonFinally I can get my grubby paws on a cheap Ideon
>>23893573We know. It was revealed in the stream.
I severely underestimated how big the horse is. Now I don't look forward to Lu Bu's separate horse kit since it's 20% larger.
>>23893508>$350 retail MGSounds great
>>23893562Ah, I got excited. I've been wanting the Berserk Furher for a while. I didn't buy it when it was 100 and some dollars and now it's 300 ;__;
>>23893594It'll be reprinted. It's one of the most popular of the lineup.
>>23893588
>>23893588>side by side windows on a single monitoryou disgust me
How's the Schwarzette like in person? It always looks like a happy meal toy in pictures.
>>23893623>always looks like a happy meal toy in picturesIt's an HG, what did you expect
>>23893623doesn't change much in person either, the design itself just kinda has that going on, but it's a fine enough kit.

how come snapgods bring their gunpla out in public but paintgods never do?
>>23893752Only literal children might do this and they shouldn't because these aren't action figures.
Drying 2nd gold layer + some ABS inner frame parts.I don't really like this Super Rich Gold. it's too dark.Maybe I should buy Star Bright Gold.
but I'm quite satisfied with this one.Burnt Iron is still one of my favorite color.
I am... forgotten...
>>23893775Moderoid didn't even try with the color separation
