-=READ THE GUIDES=-

Welcome to the Gunpla/Plamo General!

For those new, please read our guides. We have many resources available to help you in many different aspects of the hobby. They're here for you!

For the unclear, "plamo" is short for "plastic model". "Gunpla" is thus short for "Gundam plastic model". Many different kinds of models are built here, ranging from mecha to planes, cars, musume, you name it! If you're new, you're gonna screw up. Don't worry! If you're seasoned, don't make the newbies worry!

And don't forget to report shitposting and spam. The mods don't browse /m/ too often, so it's up to YOU to help keep our general clean and civil!

>Why won't anyone answer my question?
Be more specific, and try to provide clear images if you can.

>Why are my pictures sideways?
4chan strips EXIF data when images are uploaded, including the orientation tag if it's from your phone. To fix it save out your images separately, or use an app that will rotate and save the images for you.
One easy to use app that works well on Android:

== STOLEN GROUPBUILD ==

Build a Mecha or vehicle built by one faction, but change its aesthetics and style to its rival faction! Examples include but are not limited to
>Canon examples of mechs being stolen and used by another group (ie: Casval's Gundam, Feddie Zakus, Ashura Mazinger, etc)
>Designs intended for one faction that were repurposed into a design for another faction (ie: Gerbera Tetra)
>What-if scenarios (ie: A Titans color Zeta Gundam)
>Stylistic interpretation (ie: What would a EFF version of the Z'gok look like?)
When it comes to your build, really make it clear that your mecha is being used by the other side!

Do people really complain about Leopard's hip joints? This is what most of modern HG can do, they are never gonna do a yoga anyway due to the side skirt.
>>
>>23992234
It's not a big deal but when was the last time you saw a HG with ball hips? Who knows, maybe Bandai is going back to ball joints because it's cheaper. Like how there once was a time where multiple hand options used to be the norm for HG kits.

Thanks sugarcube <3

>>23992235
After building some older kits (late 2000s, early 2010s), I'm pretty sure one of the reasons why MGs have slowed down is the level of nitpicking people do to new releases now. People expect so much range of movement, lack of quick to engineer joints (ball and C clips), etc.
Also not wanting ABS at all, as it can provide a lot of strength and works better as joint material than KPS.

>when was the last time you saw a HG with ball hips?
HG Scopedog? 30MM AC Nightfall? Ball hips is still around
>Like how there once was a time where multiple hand options used to be the norm for HG kits.
Nah. Old HGs had trigger finger but it was extremely rare to have a fist included. Yeah Bandai dropped them into a few kits like GM type C and Xeku Eins but the box hand pair has been a thing from the start of 2000s HG.
>>
>>23992239
Alot of people has a bad habit of using liquid panel liner on unpainted kits so Bandai has been trying to pushing KPS since it has strong resistance to panel liner and paint remover.
>>
>>23992239
I think another big factor is how Bandai stopped using polycaps in most of modern MG and it made the development time and budget increased. Polycaps helps skipping the fitment test time by tenfold.
>>
>>23992250
That's part of my point, doing the parts with KPS that would have been ABS isn't as simple as just a material swap (like we saw from some kits where they experimented in doing that).
I also forgot to mention removing polycaps just so that when people shake a model kit (????) the pose doesn't change.
>>
>>23992248
Hell, almost all of their revamped 80s mechs like Vifam, L-Gaim, Dragonar, etc. have them plus those kinda lame simple transformation Valkyries.

I shake my HG Rick Dias all the time and it is as solid as a rock. The floppiness might be worse with the MG, but then again, stop trying to make shit increasingly heavier.

Technically? If I were this smart, I would give a Ragna-mail to a female MS pilot and customize the heck out of it. By that logic, I was thinking of an Eirene Custom, which is the only Ragna-mail across the wide Cross Ange franchise to not be given to a major character one way or another (Villkiss is of course Ange's, Hysterica is Embryo's, Cleopatra is Salia's, Raziya was Jill's before Ersha used it once, Theodora was piloted by Chris but later used by Hilda after getting the former back, and a replica of the Victoria is given to the visual novel MC Naomi), modified to hell and back by replacing the sword with a more aggressive beam axe based on the MG Slash ZAKU Phantom and the shield adding a beam generator to use in both offense and defense. Of course, Agnes from Gundam SEED Freedom should be its pilot because she fits in too well with the Diamond Rose Knights from Cross Ange.

Xi done. Painted everything that I think has to do with Minovsky flight gold.

This is the pose I would like to display it but it bends the action base something fierce. These new shits suck so much in my experience. The old 1 type was much better but it's been years since I saw them on the local store.

I'm not sure if they're still up or not but you can get the funnel effect set with the clear AB1s for them, they were on PB really recently. I don't know if they're PB exclusive or what, but it's a decent deal if you also want the funnel missile effects.

Honestly the good smile ones are my h better. Bandai stand crack at the ends of the tubes if the screw is too tight. The good smile stands do not have the joint separated from the tube, so you can tighten them very tight they don't crack.

There are also larger stands called Di:stage, that you could fit together and has two sizes of ports all over it.

>>23992305
Goodsmile's modeling support products are quite rare so i wouldn't this is ideal. Koto's Megami Device kits usually have a base and it is quite good as an alternative.

>>23992315
Mashu being a basicbitch would be a huge upgrade for her. She is just so annoying, flip flopping between the protagonist's somewhat-girlfriend and a platonic bodyguard, cockblocking him at any chances she got. Her achievements and power wanking in the game feels undeserved. There is nothing interesting going on with her backstory and characteristic either, Solomon gave her a perfect body so she won't die anymore.
>>
>>23992331
FGO fanbase is full of retards so Mashu being popular is not saying much. Olga's recent return from death was celebrated like the biggest event of the game even though her only screentime was being an ass hole and got killed by a minor antagonist.

The rivalry with Lilith did wonders to her. Mashu needed someone to hate, because in doing so she became more human and her actions got more meaning. Fuck's sake she is the heroine for a decade and barely advanced her personality until we went to the italian Hell. And even then you could argue it's the bare minimum.
At least now she properly competes instead of just being a buzzkill and cockblocking you every turn she gets.
>>
>>23992330
She is a main heroine when Nasu suddenly remembered that she is the menu girl. Alot of old chapters reduced her into a side character because Nasu wanted to have Reddit styled The Avengers featuring historical figures. The game's narrative style is full of tell, don't show nothingburger so every waifu and husbando is as deep as a puddle, yet Mashu can still come out as the worst one among them.
>>
>>23992337
she has literally always been the main heroine, yes story chapters vary in how much focus she actually gets but she is still that and always has been
there isn't even a single character to contest it because 99% of characters don't perpetually stay with you, especially not from the very start of the game
idk why you responded to me to say all this but just weird desu, you don't have to try to explain FGO to me I've been playing it daily for 10 years
>>
>>23992337
It also caused the other writers to use whatever excuses they could get to sideline her whenever possible, including the dimensions specifically gating her away from joining. You could feel they started to dislike having her on the party, even if they didn't necessarily disliked her because it took away from the developments.

Like I'm not saying I dislike Mashu. Hell even before Lilith introduced the much needed rivalry I liked her. Specially in Part 1. But by Part 2 I started hating having her around. She had barely advanced anything, and it didn't help they turned her good kit into a piece of shit and then forced her in the frontline. Ortenaus is cool as fuck but it doesn't work when it sucks at defense and sucks at offense too. You know Nasu intended to transition her from just defense to offense but she sucked at both. And then you got to her learning nothing for further years as if it wasn't enough.
I can totally understand how thousands could have hated her just as thousands have loved her.
>>
>>23992340
>she has literally always been the main heroine
If she is the main heroine then the stamina apple is also a main heroine. Making the main girl just as bland as the self insert player's character and also undisposable from your servant cargo is just insufferable.
>But but she stays with you until the end
Yeah she is a nepobaby character. That does not mean everyone has to accept her dogshit existence in the game and now plamo.

Odysseus was really good as an antagonist in Atlantis.

Because some of the writers learned over time and became just as autistic as the VN. The start is a piece of shit yes, and there is also a ton of unnecessary filler as well as downsides, but it has its peaks. My opinion: no, they don't justify the bad parts. But they certainly were really good.

I think the worst part isn't necessarily the legs being ball jointed, but the whole hip assembly being one big ball joint. It's a completely worthless addition that only serves to make the thighs clash into shit and get stuck more, not articulate more. If the part were more "Y-shaped" and offset the legs then it could actually be potentially useful.

I don't understand why Bandai insists on these hips articulation. Like the modern type where the hips are built on pegs so you can rock them side to side a little bit.

Like what the fuck is the purpose of that? It only exists so you can never quite be sure if one leg is aligned with the other.

It's not a design you expect to be doing that much in the first place, everything I've seen is more than enough for just about anything you'd wanna do with it or that it did in the anime. I'd be bothered by ball joints if it was a big design where it'd potentially be a problem like Gustav Karl or Penelope but it really doesn't matter here.

People are too worked up about the hip balls without realizing that the socket is not a tightly sealed one like old HGs. It has a gap to increase the range of movement similar to Sheik Mainland. Leopard's thighs move better than Sandrock Custom EW which is funny because that kit has hinge joint.

Yeah it's honestly just a bunch of reactionary bullshit from my POV now. Also they went out of their way and designed an actual solution to the articulation issue Leopard has that really matters (the arm gun movement) so really it all feels fucking dumb hearing or seeing anything about the leg joints other than curiosity at the choice when they engineered a pretty cool solution to the problem the design actually has.

Take cuttings from the runner and glue them on then sand it back down.

You can maybe try filling the gap with sprue goo. Take super small cuttings from the purple runner, mix them with plastic cement, and fill the gap, then resand when it's fully cured

Finish assembly on the Banshee. This kit's ankles are really floppy unlike my other two, might have to hit it with some clear coat when I hit the whole kit with it.
I like navy blue, but this plastic looks terrible out of the box. Hoping the matte coat makes it acceptable to me.

My complaint wasn't about the leg design, it was the hip. I know EG Nu has enough offset in the balljoints that it can still get basically a 90° outward even with balljoints, at least.

Realistically yeah you're not going to pose them with their legs that far out anyway, but nowadays it's usually just the hip/skirt design that gets in the way of things

How easy is it to fuck up seam line removal? I was thinking of experimenting with a decent amount of tamiya cement to melt the line then sanding it smooth. Or do I need to make the left over spru/cement mix first?

I, genuinely, have no idea who or what the fuck you're talking about

>>
>>23992800
You can just use cement, sprue goo is more for filler or detailing. Just make sure it gets applied evenly so there aren't any gaps.
>>
>>23992801
I have no idea what the fuck are you even complaining about?
>>
>>23992807
why do I see sprue goo recommended for gap filling when you can just use putty like tamiya's or milliput?
>>
>>23992818
Sprue Goo is idiot proof more or less and makes use of nubs and runners that people otherwise would either throw away or let pile-up. Tamiya putty can shrink and be ineffective on large gaps, and milliput (even though I think it's the best option) can be a little tricky if one half of it starts to oxidize or isn't sufficiently mixed.
>>
>>23992818
Because you can make sprue goo in seconds with fine enough shavings and not have to buy a tube of putty for no reason that does the same thing but with discolouration and a price hike over just buying a bottle of cement

Meanwhile in reality outside of out of context screenshots, Mash is apparently sold out fucking everywhere.

Which lead to an ongoing argument on JP twitter right now on how 30MS stocking schedule is absolutely shit. And how the likes of Shuremi, Sourei and Turkirna are still absolutely impossible to find outside some turbojew scalper offering them at stupid mark ups. Apparently, either Bandai isn't reprinting them enough or they're doing a shit job of regulating scalpers bulk buying them and reselling them at bullshit mark ups.

There's also another faction of people just telling Bandai to stop wasting so much fucking time on iM@S stuff. They're easily the weakest of the 30MS lineup in sales, but if they're hell bent on keeping on with it, at the very least they should:
a.) Lower the prices. The iM@S kits are noticeably more expensive than most of the 30MS line. At their current prices, nobody except already hardcore Producers are buying them.
b.) Actually start giving a fuck. Don't make each new iM@S kit just head swap. You wanna do idol shit, at least give variety. They're literally making kits of the biggest 2D idol franchise with a massive variety of girls and costumes. And yet somehow, they're making the most stale kits. iM@S literally has a massive pool of fashion that other 30MS girls can wear, but they're just pumping out the most basic bitch white dresses.

I agree with their points about Bandai's retardation with iM@S. There's so much frilly dresses and trendy fashion they can rip from iM@S, but they fucking chose it to be the most copy and paste template for the 30MS kits.
>>
>>23993037
However the revive is gonna be a huge upgrade if it does happen.
>>
>>23992948
The metallic pigment covers noticeably better than any other color in this range.
>>
>>23993042
Let alone frilly dresses and trendy fashion stuff, people even want some casual wears for the iM@S so they can use it for other 30MS too but Bandai refused to do so. And look how popular the school uniform option was selling, they sure as hell know there is a huge demand for it, but decided to do it in a most stupid way possible.
>>
>>23993042
>Apparently, either Bandai isn't reprinting them enough or they're doing a shit job of regulating scalpers bulk buying them and reselling them at bullshit mark ups.
There is another factor, which is the on going 30ML Asia tour, so they probably bring a huge stock of those to sell oversea during this time, which leads to their domestic market having a shortage.

They put a lot of emphasis on the G-Controller in the intro when ultimately it does nothing special and is just the GX's really fancy right-hand controller that can detach for some reason.

DX needs better head sculpt. The engineering and gimmicks are fine, i don't expect that bulky thing to be flexible.
>>
>>23993136
Skeletons are popular even to people who don't care about 30MF, since you can use them for another stuff. The Wyvern also did decently but there were a lot of complaints about the weak joint, and being bit too small for a monster. They should stop beating around the bush and start releasing another popular fantasy creatures like orcs or goblins.

>>23993152
Rosan's base body is already is an orc.

>>23993161
Rosan's face is more skeletal than what you would expect from an orc, and Japanese tend to associate orc with pig faces.
>>
>>23993173
Not quite. Orc is just a token evil species in the fantasy setting. Sure the design from Dungeons and Dragons are famous but Orc in traditional rendition is as generic as they can get, just a species of grotesque and evil humanoid monsters. Liber gollems are pretty much elves, too so it makes sense for Rosan to adopt Orc characteristic.

It's an MGEX, so it has to have extremely powerful functions. I could guess among the Destiny, Banshee, Nu/Hi-Nu, anything that screams gimmick.
>>
>>23993434
Genuinely neither. They feel like cash grabs. I have yet to build my MGEX Unicorn, but the Strike Freedom is just an annoying build that doesn't really stand out from something like the Sazabi Ver Ka. The PGU also feels the same, with the parts of it that makeup the Unleashed quality being more of a pain in the ass than anything.
>>
>>23993440
I still don't get what so extreme about strike freedom.
>>
>>23993442
And I'm still pissed that we don't have the Wings of the Skies effects for any MG Strike Freedom. It would have been a perfect opportunity for Bandai to sell those effects in P-Bandai on the 1/100 scale, but no, they want to keep the empty gold spots on the wings just to piss the Strike Freedom fans off.
>>
>>23993332
Doubtful it'll be the Xi Gundam, they can just make either a normal MG kit or a Ver Ka out of it. Plus they wouldn't even want to do a MG Xi Gundam in the first place, they'll just make a MG MP Nu Gundam and call it a day for a Hathaway MG kit just like how Build Divers only had AGE-2 Magnum as the sole representation for the MG line.
I bet this has something to do with OO, Exia is most likely since it needs a 2.0 to match up with the other 3 Meister Gundams and what better way than to use MGEX for that.
X is also a possibility, Bandai is doubling down on merch for that anime so maybe a MGEX DX Gundam is possible.
>>
>>23993446
The gold frame parts and opening wings with DRAGOONs. Stupid thing about the wings, they refuse to add the DRAGOON effects back and the Wings of the Skies effects that complete the Strike Freedom's design in the first place, even as a P-Bandai expansion set. We're already used to PET sheets being exclusive to a fan channel, why not even do that for the Master Grade when it's fair game in the High Grade?

Anyone with experience with oyumaru? I mainly want to replace the crystal bit on top of my v-fin, but I figure since I'm getting a clamp, I may as well do some mass producing.
Is it good enough that I can mass produce cool shit like guns and ammo canisters? I would totally love to produce tons of small arms, or at the very least make some extra mags.
From what I've seen people only clone parts that are tiny and out of view. So I wonder if it can withstand scrutiny without looking like something that came out of the backrooms.
>>
>>23993520
Not him but that looks like it should be a hedgehog. Porcupines are spikey all over with a long tail. Hell it could be a pokemon even.
>>
>>23993526
I've messed around with it a little bit and wasn't ever that happy with the results. If you want real mass production I'd just go ahead and make a proper silicone mold for resin recasting. I've seen people get better results than I got but I got tired of fooling with it. If the part doesn't have much detail and you're just looking for a geometric shape it's gonna be just fine, but if you want an accurate recast of something with fine details it might be a struggle.

>>23993526
I was copying various 30MM and 30MS parts before. It's not really suitable for mass producing in my opinion, given that you have to fill it with two part resin or similar material and leave for overnight due to curing time.

But it's still pretty useful. When done correctly, it have quite good replication of surface details but any deeper elements like connection holes and the like most likely won't be copied properly. It's also vulnerable to deformation if you use too much material since molds you get are flexible, more so than what you fill them with - my copies are usually slightly bigger than originals, which often require corrections. Some people experimented with liquid materials but I honestly doubt it would work. It's still very useful skill and option to have.

I usually buy a bundle of third party 1/144 action bases (I bought 20 on AliExpress for like 6 bucks a little ago), but there ain't no way I can trust Zhang with what is, at times, months of work.

>>23992298
I considered the effect parts, but I just don't have the space. I already had to box a few kits to make space for the standard Xi and Penelope.

>>23992300
It's the 2021 version. I originally was going to sand the chest V-fin, scribe some lines on the face plate and paint the chest blue to resemble the G Gen version, but I eventually settled against it. The proportions just won't look right and I can't fix that. I'd be just coping myself into believing I have what is, to me, a cooler version of the design.

I wonder if we'll ever get a kit of it though HF MSV or something. Or if it's just going to be another one of those designs that exist only in toy form.

So instead of painting the whole thing, I just painted all the all the Minovsky bits with the same gold I used on the OP Penelope, painted the other details, applied the decals (G-Rework) and topcoated with a mix of flat for the white parts and semi gloss for the colored ones.

>>
>>23993908
Astray doesn't make a whole lot of sense unless it's one of the later variants, all you have is a basic bitch Gundam with a katana.
Mighty Strike Freedom is the easiest to be pessimistic about, they just have to recycle the current MGEX and swap out the shoulders and hip guns while only really engineering the backpack.
Exia also doesn't make sense since it's so basic, the most they could do is give it LED strips for Trans Am.
Xi is way too big to work, and they sure as hell aren't going to dedicate an MG to it until the last movie is out.
Aerial and Calibarn are too basic, the most you could do is give it LEDs for different Permet scores, the Gundbits aren't enough. Plus, it's fucking WfM, that boat sailed long ago and the fan base aren't going to come back to buy an MG.
X/Double X/Wing Zero are all possible since they're still doing GWX right now, but I can't really see what kind of gimmick they'd do. Plus, Wing Zero Custom got an MG Ver. Ka very recently, and Wing Zero TV just isn't flashy enough.
Nu probably won't happen since the Ver. Ka is already quite excellent and they probably don't want Nu fatigue since the PGU literally just released earlier this year. Hi-Nu is possible, it has enough gimmicks to make a PGU work but then they would have to commit to either the original lineart or the redesign, which leaves nobody happy (anyone who wants a compromise can just buy the RG).

Odds are likely it's going to be something not on this list, simply because there are so many possibilities. Could be a full God Gundam for all we know, or Perfect Strike, or 00 Raiser.
>>
>>23993925
I wouldn't even be mad if it was Calibarn. It's one of 2-3 decent designs from bitch.
>>
>>23993930
What might make sense is to release a MGEX at the same time you announce the new statue. Exia is a simple enough design to make sense for one of those, and the 20th anniversary isn't far away.
>>
>>23993932
I just want something we haven't seen in 1/100 already. I don't care if MGEX is "skipping the line", not like they're doing shit with regular MG's anyway.
>>
>>23993934
It's still way too basic to work, it would worse than making an MGEX of the Unicorn without the shield funnels. What possible gimmick could Exia have besides maybe giving you the option parts to build Repair II? You can give it green/white LEDs for the eyes, power gem and GN drive, and red LEDs for Trans Am, but that's about it. It doesn't have any folding panels, or a huge flashy backpack, things that would give something major shelf presence. That's probably one big reason why the first MGEX wasn't The Gundam despite it always being the first to get an entry in any new line that Bandai makes.

Some of the worst fitment on any bootleg I've completed, requiring me to stop at nearly every single step to carve shit out and glue stuff down, broke multiple armor panels just trying to slide them into their natural place. C-clips that refuse to actually clutch, most of the sliding armors need to be shaved, the entire B runner had such awful flash you'd think the plastic itself had cancer. Honestly everything about the bootleg B runner from fitment to articulation to plastic quality was god awful. That's the first and probably last bootleg RG I'll mess with.

Why would you just order a single jar of paint?

So far there's always been at least a ten year gap between the MG and MGEX (12 if you count from the Ver. Ka of the Unicorn instead of the OVA version). And frankly, it kind of feels like Bandai are just doing IBO MGs out of a sense of obligation rather than for any actually existing fans (most of who live in China and will buy bootlegs instead anyway).

They don't clean their airbrushes or take care of them at all.They don't thin their primer, they rarely thin their paints, they use (usually unthinned) acrylics for EVERYTHING through the brush, and then act like the brush is acting up when it clogs for the umpteenth time.

You are not well versed in goonology. BBW are FAT women (not necessarily obese, but chubby at the very least)

The funny thing is that HG Nemo and Zssa debuted in Unicorn line first, then Zeta line later. Back to Byarlant, yes the Zeta version has less stuff to play with compares to Custom.

Kagutsuchi is chubby, especially when her waist ratio is pretty big compares to numerous other girlpla.

>these to be quite unsettling with their relative normal heads on BBW body.
You will be surprised by how many people there are with that build. The face and neck looks relatively skinny but the belly and legs are fat.
>>
>>23994365
It is normal

>>23994449
have you ever seen a chubby woman irl? They don't have an hourglass figure. That model is just a regular girl with huge tits and disproportionate hips.

Last chance for the RG X to be a thing. It's either now or never.

Chubby doesn't equal landwhale. The fat always go to your abs first before the sides.

>the Nemo and Zssa, that late
I know there's a Bawoo in Unicorn but I keep getting blindsided about the sort of things that show up in Unicorn, as well as the occasional extra accessories or worse coloration (imo) that come with it.
>default colors for the base jabbers are from Unicorn
Gimme my beloved Zeta colors
>yes the Zeta version has less stuff to play with compares to Custom.
But it's more expensive, at least from a store where the custom's sold out. Has the engineering improved, because it sure looks like it's not the parts count. Either that or they'll raise the prices on the custom if/when they restock it

Talk to me again once you've watched more BBW porn than me

ok

If it's never, they have to make a P-Bandai HGAW G-Falcon to make up for not making the RG GX and DX, but also include the extra stuff from the 1/100 HGs of the next tier Gundams that wouldn't be transferred over to the 1/144 HGAW kits.

Custom is older than Zeta Byarlant. The engineering is the same for most part, except Custom has articulated details, such as the propellant tanks, toes and claws.

Little bit early but new thread.

damn she thick. maybe I should move her up in my backlog

>>23994475
I have zero knowledge or attachment to the custom... but it DOES have more shit
>articulated details
Sorry, and the base one doesn't have it articulated? Because if so, the decision becomes instantaneously easy

Yes, its golden bat but you could have done a lot more than just a flat color. You could have done shading or contouring. You could have filled in all the 3mm holes. You could have made him his actual weapon. You didn't do much.

What colors are you painting it?
