>>23911973Yazan would be proud
>>23911973>>23911978>Has less than a minute of screentime>gets a kit.
>>23911984It's because the hambrambi is cool
>>23911984Gcucks Sazabi was only shown for a handful of seconds, and it should STILL get a kit.
>>23911920After way too long, my little test GM is complete! My first full paint job!I did a grey base coat then white over top to try and get that sorta edge highlitghing look, but you can't really see because I went overboard with making him look dirty and beat up. Vallejo wash FX goes far. I wanted to try every painting technique I was interested in so he's a weird mix.Also apparently alcohol reacts with acrylics, even when dried... Learned that the hard way trying to clean up some panel lines, you can see a bald spot on the back of the head. I didn't test on spoons for that because I just didn't think it would?Not sure what to use for panel lining over acrylics? Cant use alcohol to clean up the pen, and the tamiya enamel liner will wreck arcylic.My favorite part is the chrome silver behind the visor and for all the little worn edges and dings and scratches.
>>23911990That Sazabi is a pretty old design by now I think. I would buy a HG.
>>23911993Oh anon...
>>23911994>pretty oldg-quuux is barely a year old man
>>23911984It's the best GQ design by far
>>23911998That Sazabi design has been floating around for a while though.
>>23912003lots of artists have drawn alt gundam designs in the past but it doesn't really matter much if they aren't actually designs used for anything
>>23911995What's up, anon?
>>23911993Based
>>23911993top coat is your friend
>>23912030I completely forgor. Fuck :D I literally have the vallejo varnishes sitting on my desk right now.
>>23911993Any sort of acrylic will be damaged by alcohol.
>>23911993It's pretty overdone but honestly I think a surprising amount of it looks pretty decent despite how heavy you went. The biggest problems are that you have some inconsistent texturing and a couple areas look like they have fingerprints on them. Also the red and yellow is too pristine overall compared to how mucked up the white is. It feels like a GM II that could have been at the edge of the nuclear blast that took out Jaburo in Zeta.I think the shield especially could use a lot more dirtying up to match the rest of it. You also should get more of the inner areas, like the insides of the shoulders and the side that touches the torso. Every bit of stark white stands out.The traditional advice would be to dial back all your weathering by a ton, but I kinda like what's going on here. You should incorporate different colours and be more measured in your applications though.
>>23911929Alzeus doesn't look as shit as it normally does in your image.
>>23912059It doesn't have any of the funnel containers on it nor any of the leg jet parts, it's pretty close to the stripped down basic format of it
Starting the shield liger. Thinking of painting this one white. Trying not to do any zoids in the same colors as another.Also it's insane there's still not an RMZ liger zero.
Huh. I'm starting to see HGUC Nightingale show up for reasonable prices. Was there a recent reprint?
>>23912065sellers passing off the bootleg as real
HG Zi-Artemis
>>23912103Zi-Ortygia
>>23912103>>23912106https://x.com/i/status/2067757618077311120Link. The whole thing looks pretty.I don't remember if we got Zi-Artemis as a Metal RD. Feels like a refined version of the Magatsu-Ikaruga from the Knights & Magic novels.
>>23911978Fuck bros... I NEED this for my future edgy custom builds
>>23912103>>23912106meh. Where's the final boss?
>>23912065Yes there is. They reprinted 00 MGs too.
>>23911978I really wish I liked this redesign, the kit seems really good
Is this the best option for TV version of Eva 01 kit right now?
https://x.com/i/status/2067804612950958109AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Finally, a Gravity Cannon even the old Ultrasaurus can wield!
>>23912261>motorizedyikes.When are we getting a proper Ultrasaurus model that is as large and wide as a small dining table?
So, only the hip and left arm frames are new.
HG ZZ revive when
>>23912290Can it do a better front kick? That was the only issue with the RG Exia.
