>>23998263
I don't want to rush it at all but roughly how long should I expect the Osiris Dominator take to build? Won't be painting it or anything so just building/panel liningShould get it next week then I'm off work the following week so should have a good bit of time to work on it
>>23998268Going by the photos I took, took me a week for the inner frame, then 4 more days for the armor. I didn't do any of the decals. Be careful with the parts that push the switches in the binders. I snapped one off of the board so I'm required to do the magnets. Also the chest LED board is finiky for me to where I need to have the back off to hold the battery cage at the right toughness so it works.
I’m cutting down on my backlog(it’s only 3) so I can build a perfect grade, cause I’m curious about the build experience. It’s gonna be the GP01 hopefully want to do a paint scheme like this
>>23998299not so bad, depending if it comes early next week should be able to hopefully get it done or at least very close to done, thinking of maybe keeping the armor off on one side because that inner frame is beautiful but not sure undecided on the decals too, don't think they look bad but at the same time I do just like the clean look thanks for the heads up too, I've heard about the switches breaking quite a bit but good reminder!
>>23998241Been trying to mix my own paint colors since I couldn’t find any out the bottle that had the color I need, but I’m quickly realizing Im shit at mixing paints.Can any wise anons with a firmer grasp of color theory tell me how I can get this guy from a chocolate brown to whatever the hell kind of brown this guy is supposed to be? I mixed Mr color red brown with some white but the red brown came out completely brown and the white just made it a lighter brown. Would throwing a few drops of red in there do the trick? Or purple? I don’t want to fuck this up again
>>23998342it should be primarily grey, that's pretty much your first mistake is just the wrong majority shade to begin withadd a small bit of forest green into german grey and you'll be in the ballpark
>>23998342I have similar issues and just ask Gemini what to try. It has been correct 80% of the time with the colors to start with (I give it the exact paint jar numbers).
>>23998342You need a drop of purple in there
>>23998268Several days. It is a complex kit.
>>23998342huh wait what kit is that? it ain't a ground gm
>>23998240I need inspiration anons, what are you doing for the groupbuild?
>>23998249Holy shit, Macross yf-21 is cool, but Hasegawa got the rights to Dragonar AND Mospeada?A model of the Tread (Beta Fighter) is now possible!
Big group shot of all the 30MS girls so far.Man, Merunja really stands out. If she's not holding her Chainsaw, nothing really gives her a Mecha Musume impression of sorts. Even the other Anmi designed 30MS girls like Sourei and Shuremi can somewhat still pass off as Cyborg Ninjas.
>>23998445Arr rook same
I heard that big Xabungle was kind of terrible but I think Hasegawa has gotten better at large mecha since then. They did do a bunch of Zentradi stuff. https://hobby.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/news/2136499.html
>>23998410Not gonna join group build but i'm gonna make a visor Sazabi without tubes.
>>23998445Anmi designs seem to be Bandai version of Arcanadea, they just group them into same 30ms label instead of having billion of different lines of girlpla like Koto.

Yo guys, I've been working on a huge project for the past 5 months and it's finally out. I've been pretty frustrated with the lack of a unified, brand-agnostic source for all model kits, so I ended up making my own, and I just launched it today: mechadex.orgWhat this is:- A universal, community-driven database for all Gunpla-style kits from any manufacturer, including Chinese brands. This site can be thought of as the equivalent of IMDb, MyAnimeList, Backloggd, etc., but dedicated to model kits.- A detailed entry for each kit: brand, franchise, scale, actual size, photos...- A database of brands and franchises, so you can browse kits by franchise just as you would by manufacturer.- A way to list all the kits you’ve built, manage your backlog and wishlist, and share your thoughts on the kits you’ve built.- A way to discover third-party kits you might otherwise have missed, while seeing what people think about them on the same page.What this Isn’t:- A substitute for Dalong: For now, MechaDex’s goal isn’t to provide every possible piece of information about each kit. Dalong serves as a comprehensive encyclopedia for a few specific brands, while MechaDex focuses on providing a hub for the community without any brand or franchise restrictions.In order for this site to become useful, we need people to contribute as much as possible to it. Right now I've just added a few kits, brands, and franchises by myself.Check it out on mechadex.orgThis is a non-commercial project, and it doesn't have ads on it. I'd really like to keep it that way, so donations are available if some of you really like my work.
>>23998460>instead of having billion of different lines of girlpla like Koto.Because putting literal harpy and lamia without an inch of mecha detail or magitech into the same line as FAG or MD would be weird.
>>23998481Unironically try posting this on r/Gunpla.On paper the idea is sound, but /gpg/ has too many retards looking to stir shit up. You just know some people will cause drama. I hope there is no messaging function built in.
>>23998528I contacted the mods to make it into a proper announcement, waiting for their reply.Basement dwellers aren't a big risk as there's no messaging on the site, most you can do is reviews which are very easily moderated.
>>23998528I believe everyone here has a subconcious ego and think they are the best at modeling. Similar to "artist community", it is essentially useless to seek validation and sense of community when you have 1000 content creators and none of the audience.
The winner of this theme will be from Zeon
>>23998410tell me what kits you have to work with and I'll give you ideas
>>23998539Yes, the winner will be a suit that was originally from Zeon.
Calling resident Chang shills. I need a z'gok for kitbashing purposes. What's the best bootleg z'gok?
>>23998536But I actually am the best.
>>23998549I don't think there is any
>>23998550Oh yeah? My builds always feature in the OP or in the groupbuild/WIP posts. No matter when I post them in the threads. Can you say the same?
>>23998549HG Zgok is as cheap as a bootleg anyway so you can just buy the Bandai one. Seed Freedom version has a bootleg so you can go for that if you want something you never want to own in the first place.
>Bought a kit i never had interest in the first place because some parts look like decent kitbashing material>It looks so cool after the fun assembly and i just can't force myself to cannibalize itI hate this
>>23998566Me with the Liber knight.
>>23998566Unfortunately the solution is to buy two.
>>23998571Funnily enough it's kinda the opposite for me. Ended up stashing it in a drawer to be forgotten about because it's so mid
>>23998539You definitely got the 'from Zeon' part right. Originally, at least.
>>23998410I am unable to compete but stupid ideasguy inspiration:>zeon remnant faction takes the silver bullet and reverse reverse reverse engineers it
>>23998481I'm starting to get submissions in, hell yeahA great starting point would be to submit every model kit you own. It might take a while to fill the form a billion times over so don't do it all at once.
>>23998573Don't listen to this anonThis is an evil fucking road I buy two of everything now and it's just the worst
>>23998549the chinese ones suck because they are all ABS and instantly get floppyclaws suck shit and can't hold open
>>23998582remember to link all your reviews so we can funpost about you
>>23998410Have my idea, I need to work on other things. Neo Zeon ZZ Gundam in Psycho Mk-II or Qubeley Mk-II colors, with Thunderbolt FA style shields replacing the shoulder and forearm pieces. Each shield would be a mothership funnel carrying smaller funnels like the Geymalk. I wanted Bawoo shields but not 4 junk Bawoos.
>>23998582>submit every model kit you ownyou really don't know what you ask of me and I shant be doing that
>>23998590Oh well that's simple, just buy 4 Todesritters, they come with Bawoo shields.
>>23996861This anon is wrong, right? There is no Gaza-D kit.
>>23998595Gaza-Deez nuts
>>23998595Correct, the only actual Gaza we have is the -CThere is an old -D and GaZowmn though from the original ZZ line
>>23998596>>23998597Why?
>>23998571I bought HG Dias because the guns and hands look like it can be used on other kits but ended up keeping it whole because the kit feels nice and looks better in person. Another case was HG Zudah, bought it for the anti ship rifle but ended buying 2 more because the robot design itself grew on me.
>>23998606Because we're not 6 months into the future when the Gaza-D kit gets announced in our slow march on HGUC ZZ domination.
>>23998574The kit's engineering is ok, but 30MF designs suffer the big round head. They look cool in promo pics but look like giant babies in person.
>>23998481Why don't you start by scraping info from dalong or bandai's own website with manuals?
>>23998617nta but the fact you suggest scraping dalong means you should kill yourselfdude scanned that shit himself and has watermarks on everything, try to be less of an abject mongoloid saying "why not go steal all that dude's shit" you faggot
>>23998617I'm doing my part by submitting the stuff Dalong doesn't touch like third party kits. Dunno why he doesn't, maybe the dude has sponsors up the ass from Bandai and Koto or Hasegawa and the like.
>>23998588>the chinese ones suck because they are all ABS and instantly get floppyHGUC Zgok has black ABS joints and get floppy after a while. The bootleg doesn't sound that far off to be honest.
>>23998610Hope the Gazowmn is next. Dunno why the Unicorn line skipped it and the Gaza-D.Unicorn in general happened too early. Imagine all those UC kits being released with today's engineering. Paradise.
>>23998342what us that kit? some 3rd party kit similar to the Kurofune ez8?
>>23998621Maybe he just thinks they're all ugly knockoffs
>>23998620I said info, not his images. Anon doesn't even have basic skeletal kit entries on his site whereas he could just scrape info on the basic bandai gunpla kits that exist that dalong has posted because they're already pre-categorized.
>>23998624Seems like a kitbash using Ground Gundam Parachute version as the base.
>>23998623I want just about every bad guy from ZZ to get a modern model, I don't care too much about the order. I fucking love so many Neo Zeon mooks it's unreal. Gazowmn is rad as hell.For me it's Quin Mantha more than anything though, really can't wait to wake up to that announcement in the next few years. But I'll absolutely get literally everything they put out and probably 6 MP Qubeleys for the full Quin Mantha + escort display. One day...
>>23998631I forgot that was a separate version.
>>23998635The Ground types in HG are so fucking eclectic, between the actual Ground Type Gundam, the GM, Ez8 and the Blue Destinies shit is all over the place in stylings and compatibility
>>23998624It's not ugly enough for that to be the case. That actually looks good.
What's the probability we get HGs of the silhouette formula suits?
>>23998637yeah for kitbashing that line is pretty good>>23998640i like that model fuck you buddy reeeit's really nice and sturdy in the hand
>>23998641Zero for now.
>>23998641like zero fucking percent if I'm real with youlate UC stuff gets RE100s and MGs more than HGsextremely likely we get MG SF91 stuff soon enough though
>>23998645Honestly MG Neo or G-Cannon Magna would be way better than HGs anyway. I'm still hunting for the old no-grade 1/100s
>>23998642You like an ugly, fake and gay ez8 knockoff
Holy based
>>23998648All Ez8s are gay because 08th is liked by faggots
>>23998648I like both the base unit and the kurofune one your taste is shit and devoid of nuance
>>23998649thought the Vaporwave era was over
>>23998649is that a fucking
Does anyone have this kit? Never seen it posted. It's the only girlpla that I have. Though I have other two on the 'log.
>>23998647G-Cannon has no real signs (unfortunately) of happening yet, right now we're getting RE100s of Crossbone dudes and we got GunEZ in the past but we're notably missing any of the F91 or V Federation-use MS in an updated form and there hasn't been any real signs for developments on that front. Wouldn't be insanely surprised if we got a Heavygun/II/Hardygun or the G-Cannon, lotsa potential reuse for variants from both of those molds really but no sign of them yet. Given how much they can tie in with some of the F90 packs and all though it feels like a bit of a waste if we don't get them in the next couple years.I long for a RE100 Javelin particularly as Feddie things go
>>23998645>>23998647I think we'll get a MG Neo & Silhouette in the next five years as P-Bandai, of course. The F90 manga seems to be steering in that direction and that's where it will probably go next after Cluster ends. Bandai seems a lot more open to making Late UC RE/100 and MG kits than other eras since I guess the smaller size is akin to making a slightly more detailed RG in terms of material costs.
>>23998342Needs more purple
>>23998457No Lifter or Cavalier but it is kind of refreshing to have a plain old D-1.
>>23998660I'm horny
>>23998663Yeah I would expect MGs of SF91/Kai/Neo and maybe even Cluster Kai over the next few years. Really little doubt in my mind on that. From what I can tell reception to all this late UC push has been pretty good so I think we'll continue to see more of it. I'm doing my part anyways.I wouldn't be that surprised if we get some updated Crossbones eventually, but I'm not holding my breath either. I suspect we'll also probably get some new stuff out of Jupiter Zeon too but who knows.
>MSRP of the MGEX Mighty Strike Freedom is $280el oh el
>>23998353>>23998383Thanks anons, i'll try a few test mixes and see how it goes.>>23998362Is Gemini really that accurate? I've asked chatGPT before to help me figure out some painting issues i've had and it's been correct far less often than that. Maybe I've been asking the wrong future AI overlord.>>23998402>>23998624It's a 3d printed kit designed and printed by some guy in China. The 3d print gunpla scene over there is insane, thank god for middlemen buyer sites.
>>23998666I feel like the head is a little doofy but the rest is lovely.
>>23998671Meanwhile chang makes very similar stuff for like 80
>>23998410For me, it's Zanny
>>23998677Based as fuck
>>23998677absolutely disgusting, that poor Zaku being defiled by you feddie fucks
>>23998677Is that a fucking Nemo Cannon I spy?!
>>23998468It would be unironically kino to recreate the Albion hanger after both Gundams are stolen
>>23998672>thank god for middlemen buyer sites.awww c'mon man share the details where do you buy those?
>>23998678>>23998679The duality of man
>>23998663>>23998670Not for nothing, GBO2's model for the Neo Gundam screams MG to me. They tend to use remodels from kits for some suits (God Gundam blatantly uses the model for its RG). Especially the way the reshaped the shoulders, it had me thinking an MG Neo was gonna be announced soon.
/r/ing a lore master to explain to me the Silhouette Gundam and Neo Gundam
>>23998694just watch a playthrough of the SNES game and you'll get the full rundown
>>23998694There was competition between various factions to develop the next main Gundam
Fuck here I was thinking it was a model kit. Metalchads win again.
>>23998711The kit is coming too. You can see RG on some of the promotional material same with the Nu
>>23998649five slop stories never beating the tranny bot allegations
>>23998666>>23998457Hasegawa kits are still floppy bricks, but they're cheap, don't have stupid/question engineering like with volks kits and are nice looking bricks when painted up. Will be buying that new YF-21 and maybe D-1
>>23998716The RG styling is not as good as the toy sadly. It is gonna be a recolor, which is not that big of a deal unless Bandai put in some efforts and give it new parts.
>>23998694The tl;dr from what I remember is that Anaheim maybe stole, maybe had data leaked to them of the F90 VSBR configuration, so they made their own bootleg F90/F91 called the Silhouette Gundam in an attempt to remain competitive with SNRI.Meanwhile a research team for the Crossbone Vanguard, who hasn't declared open war yet when this story takes place, encounters Anaheim testing their bootleg, so CV uses the data gained from that to make a bootleg of the bootleg called the Vigna-Zirah.Hijinks and EFF corruption ensue.
tron eva is kinda spooky
>>23998719The protagonist has tranny characteristic too so it checks out.
>>23998694up through UC100 Anaheim was the gigachad, but then the Feddies said SNRI got to have the money and Anaheim became the soijak and chimped out to copy the new gigachad designs and that's the Silhouette F91 and Neolater that new gigachad SNRI would turn into their own feminist soijak in victory gundamsurely you understand it now
>>23998445the witch is ok but the rest fucking suck
I'm entertained by the idea of Dijeh secretly having Gundam face. Which HG Gundam has the most fitting scale to use on HG Dijeh head? Zeta Plus, Zeta or Re GZ?,
>>23998268gross total snap time of probably 40-50 hours for me. but i work really slow. not counting the base, havent started that yet.
>>23998740which kit did this come with?night combat, 3.0+1.0, one of the meng ones or something else entirely?
>>23998672Gemini I found is better at searching stuff, so it find a reddit post or w/e and combines it with some color theory guide on some artist website and gets you reasonably close. I found it also good for if you want to be find a nice complementary 3rd/4th color for a custom paint job.
>>23998745he's a literal god
>>23998753Jesus that's a long build. I build pretty slowly myself and the longest kit I've done is the Sazabi Ver Ka at around 20 hours
>>23998685Nah, I'd rather gatekeep so nobody steals from my treasure trove.I look up kits in xianyu/goofish, using sugargoo as the middleman site. You'll have to search things up in Chinese though. I use AI/google to copy/paste how to say mobile suit names in Chinese for searching.>>23998758Neat, I'll try Gemini out, thanks anon.
>>23998764It has like PG part count
>>23998445I'm miffed I skipped out on the red hero sister.
>>23998749I don't own an HGUC Dijeh but I think the HGUC S/Ex-S probably have reasonable faces for this purpose, I dunno I'd really just try to look for anything with a spare faceplate more than trying to get the exact right shapeThe Zeta bird beak-esque kinda face is fairly easily recreated out of a normal style face since you just need to elongate the chin and make the whole face plate more triangularly shaped to match which just means a little styrene or putty or sprue bits or whatever atop the normal face then sanding it down to stretch it forward
>>23998660Go to the Busou Shinki thread on /toy/, that's where people go to discuss girlpla.
Ahh I love looking up sites that are entirely in ChineseI wonder if this is how the third world felt before we gifted them google translate
>I fumbled 2 of the most famous female gunpla shills on social mediaI almost consider this an accomplishment
anyone have their osiris dominator half armor on half off? wanna see what it would look like
>>23998797My friend did exactly that
Almost finished bootleg Efreet SchneidIt's fine. Not great not terrible.
>>23998803you built the standard Efreet? that's the only one I have haven't built it yet
>>23998801fuck yeah that does look nice, i'll probably end up doing something similar feels a shame to cover all that up!
>>23998806>feels a shame to cover all that up!That's what sluts say
>>23998805I built the XFS Efreet Nacht and gave up on it because it was terrible.I don't know if I have the standard Efreet i'll have to look
>>23998754
>>23998766>I look up kits in xianyu/goofish, using sugargoo as the middleman site.Don't you need a Chinese phone number to even browse Goofish at all?
Does it suck your dick while you build it or something, what the fuck?
Got burned by a US based local hobby shop. They had the Solomon GP02 with the MLRS and Clear armor selling for 80 bucks, very clearly stated in the listing as that version. Only, what I got was the regular base version, and I checked the listing and they updated it since then to say it's the base. Emailed them, and these motherfuckers better either ship me out the rest of it or give me a partial refund, or they're getting a chargeback. I have the receipts saying it has everything else, you bastards.
>>23998711That's a sexy looking 'zabi. I keep hearing the siren call of the Ver.ka after finishing up my RG
>>23998867If it looked like this then maybe
>>23998867man that's a 100 bucks over the 26000 yen conversion rate
>>23998869I remember you recommending it to the thread, but when I saw the listing it only had "main body" selected which I thought sounded odd, glad I didn't jump on it. Thanks for beta testing!
>>23998410Nothing for the groupbuild, just chipping away at my backlog.
>>23998886Bandai doesn't care if Americans don't buy it, they built it solely so that their Japanese, Chinese and Filipino fanbase buy it.
>>23998914No Indonesians or Thailanders or Vietnamese?
>>23998914>Japanese, Chinese and Filipino fanbase buy it.Half of one and the entirety of the other will just wait for the bootleg thoughie.
>>23998877I'm surprised Chinkpla doesn't do this and make millions
>>23998932I'm sure there are a handful around somewhere. I'm more surprised there aren't any MS Girl gunpla out there. I know about the one Variable Fighter Girl and the Frame Arms Girl line, i'm talking about the official MS Girls.
>>23998410A Zeon pilot is transported to a fantasy world. The denizens of that land take his tech and over the years the suit more resembles the native standard of armor. Basically I'm kitbashing a mobile suit with 30MF parts lol
>>23998249>Hurricane HoneyI'm gonna cum
>>23998593I wanna build gunpla while snugly in Roux's lap
>>23998660I have it. It's been sitting in my backlog for years. I was supposed to paint it this year but I barely worked up the strength to complete two kits so far
How do I topcoat metallic paint/markers? Should I even?
>>23998982Do semi gloss if they're acrylic. Don't bother if enamel or lacquer.
>>23998241New recast resin kit came in today and it's a weird one. It's a Sequence Palladium Type Q which I think is from a pc98 videogame as far as my research could find. The quality was shit so I repurposed it as an Aura Battler.
>>23999000Damn double trips
>>23998410If the Feddie took Sinanju and did minor alterations, does it count as stolen or returning?
Ooohh didn't know this thing existed.*ding ding*Chaaaaaang!
>>23999051I've been floating around making my own form of this with my Rozen Zulu cus I wanna use the shoulders for something else
>>23999054But where you gonna get the giant arms and booster legs?
>>23999058I have a few different propellant tanks that could work for the leg units, I'd probably use Dra-C's with some other bits on themI don't have good bits for the shoulders but I'd use the rozen zulu's arms for the bigger arms
$180 just to combine this monstrosity btw and you have to paint it btw
my phone sucks ass at focusing. anyway, looks p good.
last one with normal head.
How is this for a 3rd party kit? Worth the price?
>>23999106Bandai LOST
>>23998864Oh yeah, you do, I forgot about that. I used a friend's phone number for goofish, but you can spoof it too I think. If anything, Xianyu doesn't need a Chinese phone number to browse, it'll just be really annoying about it.
>>23999106yes
>>23998660Man, I thought this was the Dark Advent DX kit where the girl gets PHAROAH'D. What's the horniest mecha musume girlpla line that pushes the limit while still remaining short of the Dark Advent DX line (for reference, the girls literally handle the cock of their mechas there) degeneracy anyway?I'm guessing it's some chink chong chang line?
>>23999129>What's the horniest mecha musume girlpla line that pushes the limit while still remaining short of the Dark Advent DX line (for reference, the girls literally handle the cock of their mechas there) degeneracy anyway?I mean short of just literal nudity, I don't know how much more you can push the envelope in an officially released kit considering that mecha musume are already in what's essentially skimpy underwear or leotards anyway. What, you want a Mecha Musume that's wearing nothing but a v-sling swimsuit?I dunno man, I guess the recently released Eastern Model Nine Tails one just has her bare ass out in the open.
>>23999117holy sex

>>23998410I'm toying with the idea of isekai/ cross series stuff.
>>23998867Bandai the yen is very weak right now. You cant be doing this
>>23998410>>23999142Yeah I was thinking that too, my idea was what if Graham Aker got isekai'd into IBO and nabbed a Graze
>>23999139Agreed. Plenty of mooks would sell better than the MGEX MSF.
>>239984452nd from the left
So I've been giving away some of my backlog through gunpla discords, fb marketplace, offerup, etc and I've noticed something. Not sure if it's just my area but this hobby seems to attract a lot of people on the spectrum? Out of everyone who's met up with me the majority have been noticeably autistic. It actually makes me reconsider the way I talk to people online. I've been kinda mean and feel a little remorseful about it.
>>23999157>a hobby about assembling things attract Those kind of peopleNo way Norway!
>>23998445> If she's not holding her Chainsaw, nothing really gives her a Mecha Musume impression of sortsJokes on you, the Mecha is her teddy bear. Checkmate Atheists.
>>23999132>What, you want a Mecha Musume that's wearing nothing but a v-sling swimsuit?Not that guy, but yes actually.Bandai really going full retard by not going balls deep into a Gundam Mecha Musume line like how Frame Arms Girl to their Frame Arms series.A V2 Gundam-chan wearing a v-sling just fucking writes itself.Hell, just release a Freedom MS Shoujo and the ching chongs will rabidly eat that shit up. It's easy money for them.
>>2399917030minute Mobile Suit Sisters soon...
>>23999157With how slow you are on the uptake I'd include yourself in that group.
>>23999175Heh
would it hurt Bandai to at least give good stickers given the price they ask for the Sentai kits
>>23998867thats cheap compared to the real dick sucker The Twilight coating
>>23998867You'd hate having some actually expensive hobbies.
>>23999132>Look up reviews of this kithttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoWR8LWzgoo>Ass and Tits are taped overlmao. do changs really?
Nobody asked for MSF except for flips
>>23999198It is not the price itself, bootlicker-kun, it is that it is $100+ more expensive than the existing version that is close to the same and it is within the price range of most PGs including the PGU rx-78
>>23999198This is such a shoddy logic. The existence of other more expensive things doesn't suddenly mean the initial thing is no longer expensive or over-priced for what it is.
>>23999205so it is the price
>>23999207If you want to remove every kind of context I guess. You can go add a line on your chalkboard of internet arguments won because I'm not going to spend more time replying to someone being this obtuse.
>>23999157>this hobby seems to attract a lot of people on the spectrumColor me shocked. SHOCKED.
>>23999157>anon comes to the realization he might be on the spectrum as well
Fuck I want to BUILD but I can't open my windows to PAINT right now not with the heavy moonsoon raging outside.
>>23999217You can just snapshit for now
>>23999210>it's not about the price!>it's about how much it costs!you're a fucking retard.
>>23999157>this hobbyMore like people that like mecha in general.
>>23998410Painting something shades of green instead of blue + some decals
>>23998410Mobile suits stolen to be used in clan battle.
FUCK UP AT THE LAST MOMENTI was topcoating my kit and on the final part, I noticed A SPECK OF BLACK DUST. I wiped it on reflex with my finger and the wet coat got wiped out as well along with the red paint underneath AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I repainted it but it left a small rash-like mark, uneven surface thanks to my finger wipe.Whatever. battle damage.
Second paint mixing attempt went a lot better, finally got those colors right. Special thanks to the anons from earlier with helpful mixing advice.
>>23999223I know I want to combine them into Susanoo for sure but I like MagnaGaruru enough that I might buy a second one of him.
>>23999157That can't be because the majority of gunpla fans, especially those who lurk on facebook (SEA) are lazy quicksnapshitters. also poorfags who always shamelessly haggle.
>>23998481That's awesome, man. I'll add some entries when I have time.
>>23998240>>23998410Anyone have an STL for a shot lancer or have a link to one? I have a stupid pun idea I'd want it for but I don't really wanna have to buy a den'an-zon just for it
The Vandread Dita Moderoid looks and builds pretty good, but I want to drag out the chucklefuck who thought that it was a brilliant idea to make the joint and pegs of the back cannons/wings (i.e. one of the parts you'll play around with the most while posing) out of thin as fuck clear plastic to a back yard and put an extra pair of eyeholes on them.
>>23998673the non-Obari head was always a bit plain and doofy
>>23998241I've been catching up on Paintonplastic videos and it got me wanting to try a new technique. >using a beat up brush, stipple dark color all over gunpla>go in with a lighter color in places you want to be brighter>stipple main color (in my case, it is Gaia Notes Blue Fog White for the frame pieces)As the lacquers reactivate on each layer, the bottom color is mixed a bit into the top color. The old brush's stippling creates these chips in the surface that you can alter as you go. It looks ugly as shit when you start and gets better and better later on.
Unlikely to have time to do a full size gunpla for the group build (life coming at you fast and all that), but thinking I could use a premium gacha to at least buff up entry count. It is a Miku Zaku, and my plan is for Teto loyalists to steal and repaint it.
>>23999444I'd let this rick to dom me, if you know what I mean
>>23999449That's clearly just Dom, not Rick Dom
I want to get into epoxy sculpting, Is there a difference between green stuff and tamiya epoxy?Also do you know any good youtube tutorials for this sort of thing? Mainly I want to resculpt hand on older Zeon kits so they have perfect sausage fingers.
>>23998549Z'gok are the worse bootlegs mainly because they're "early" and because they're like $2 cheaper than badai. Better off buying 1st party on discount.
https://youtu.be/NkOwBrBnoFY?si=cxe2iAGnfyy6vwNDEarlier this year, we had a 7-pack reissue of the Musha Shichininshu. If next year or at some point in the future we get the Shinsei Musha Goninshu (Musha Alex, Musha Plus, Musha Hyakushiki Kai, Musha S, and Musha Psycho Mk-II), I pray they also include the Fuurinkazan Armor Sets for Alex's retainers and even the actual users among the Seven Mushas (Hayate no Nu, Mitsurin no Mk-II, Kaen no ZZ, and Kyozan no Psycho), since they were just re-releases of the originals with the new armors added in. There's lots to improve on with Bandai's new technology like actual jewel stickers to replace the clear plastic jewel and foil sticker combo of the originals.
>>23999351I didn't even bother snipping those from the runner and flat out replaced them with Hobby Base polycarbonate balljoints.
>>23998481Cool, I'll do my part.>>23998621I'll say we should focus on anything not gunpla, really. Since dalong has gunpla pretty much settled, those can be slowly added later on.
>>23999117>nuclear bazooka>blue in the back and then jet engine orange in the frontIt looks neat but why?
>>23998621I feel like it goes without saying that many asian communities look down extremely heavily on third party.
>>23999505that's why you don't "shout" it when you do use 3rd party
>>23999488the orange is pretty much exactly how it looks when it fires in the OVAthe blue is a mystery (because someone just thought why not throw a LED back here too I guess)
>>23999509>the orange is pretty much exactly how it looks when it fires in the OVAI need to re-watch it then because I have completely forgotten.
>>23999513It does an insane barrel detonation thing and fires a gigantic beamThe entire naval review nuking scene is a goldmine of dumb physics they shoulda had someone on staff to tell them no aboutKino shot anyway
>>23999106one of the best up their with the Kshatriya, it's the same company
>>23999157>fully grown adults spending hours meticulously making models of robots manned by fictional anime guys they find cool are autistic? well fuck me i never could have guessed
>>23999157> I've been kinda mean and feel a little remorseful about it.That means you need to be meaner.
>>23999250Came out nice anon. A squad of them painted in that color would look great
>>23999250What'd you end up mixing? Looks good though could use a bigger pic.
>>23999438You have my vote
>>23999438I actually did a teto zaku when the miku zaku was announced.
>>23999438this but Rin and you have my vote
Just hit by inspiration for stolen. Stolen ball converted into cube.
>>23999636>Huey Lewis stealing from NEETs
>>23999636Zeon knows about hard angles??
>>23999636Fantastic idea. Alternatively it could be made into a pyramid or bipyramid. The reasoning being that concept of triangles being "evil looking" when designing characters.
Stolen will get less than 10 submissions, otherwise I post my thighs
My genius frightens me
>>23999655You're playing with fire.
>>23999655this is why we can't have nice things
>>23999655wow I can't believe you would steal this from takara tomy who literally invented cubes
>>23998541Not much, some MAK, a couple of Macross valks, and some girlpla and I think a ground gundam.Might do a girlpla whose been parasitised by an alien and turned on her former comrades - it counts if its a stollen body right?
>>23999655Thread ruined, thanks
Well I got it. I blame you people for my two dozen deep backlog. I justify it buy telling myself that as soon as I buy my house Im going to have dedicated hobby room with all my kits line up so I can grab whatever I please.
>>23999655if this is a zeon brand CUBE it should have a zeon machinegun on top just saying
>>23999667>you peopleWhat do you mean by "you people"
>>23999655You... you mad bastard
>>23998241Finished painting the graze. My sheet of IBO decals only has the Issue crest as far as gjallarhorn houses go so I went for the graze ritter/zagan teal. I've gotta say, the angularity of the legs really compliments my shading style.
What's the absolute cheapest Gundam kit you can buy right now? I know Hobby Lobby has kit sales but they usually stock the more expensive HGs to compensate.
>>23999690>What's the absolute cheapest Gundam kit you can buy right now?EG RX-78 or Strike
>>23999655Fuck you this thing killed my wife!
>>23999689You're my third favorite builder in this general
>>23999697Who the hell are the first two?
>>23999698Uuuuh there was that one guy who did that one build and also the other guy I can't remember right now
>>23999699Omg, I have a fan
>>23999701No, not you, you're not even in top 5
>>23999690Check FB Market for free gunpla. There's tons of $0 listings.
>>23999697thank you, I'm my favorite builder in this general
>>23999705If you had an ounce of humility I would be your favorite builder
>>23999707I'm european, I can't even comprehend what an ounce is
>>23998241It's raining this weekend giving me a great excuse to keep delaying on starting my next painting job. Starting in the MG Jegan, wasn't expecting much since I've heard it was basically an RE/100, but I'm not sure where people got that from the number of runners, feels like nearly the same as the Banshee. Also I could not resist making the blue floursecent. Hand brushed this Gaia paint on the inside of the visors and the outside of the rest of the camera pieces. Paint is actually thin enough that if I don't have a UV light on it, you can still see through to the mono eye. Surface texture is a bit rough on the external parts, but nothing the clear coat won't fix up.
>>23998410i'm going to snapchad a gundam mk 2 (aeug ver) with no modifications.
>>23999726>AEUG ver with no modificationsso it'll be in titans colours?
>>23999724>MG Jegan, wasn't expecting much since I've heard it was basically an RE/100who the fuck has ever said that?
>>23999724Too bad the only way to get glow is with UV. >tfw have to irradiate yourself to get natural glow
>>23999728I've heard it here a few times, probably when people are arguing a kit should have gotten an MG instead of an RE/100 or something.>>23999730It activates a bit but less obviously when you have natural light hit it.
>>23999724>Paint is actually thin enough that if I don't have a UV light on it, you can still see through to the mono eyegaia fluorescent paints are actually all clear, you can use them for candy coating
>>23999737Neat, did not actually know that.
>>23999739Yeah, I was really surprised when I first tried them but it's a very welcome feature. They react to UV light way more than the mr color fluo green I tried before getting them, I was pretty disappointed with that one
3rd Zudah is done. The gang is here.
>>23999760
>>23999760>>23999761>zudahs are still out of stock>I can simply just steal all of anon's>and then submit them for the groupbuild no less
I guess Herbert Kuspen Gelgoog will be the 3rd guy to the collection.
Am I anyone's favorite builder?
>>23999780Youre my favorite femboy
>>23999777
>>23999763Zudah and almost every Igloo kit got scalped to death. I'm pretty sure Bandai reprinted it recently.
Bandai needs to quit fucking around and reprint their shit already. I had to go on buyee and snipe-bid the damn kit I wanted because it wasn't available anywhere else for a reasonable price.
>>23999761Based and Zudah pilled Anon! I am still stuck at two, I will find the third someday, not in a hurry Or I cave and go find out what they go for at that time and cave
>>23999780I can be yours if you are mine, Anon.
>>23999787>I am still stuck at twoYeah because the 3rd Zudah got a tragic accident.
>>23999786Small family company. Prease Understando.
>>23999786thousands of SKUs just learn to wait
>>23998241I got the English voice for Amuro Ray to sign my HG Grandpa Gundam.
>>23999798That's pretty fucking lame
>>23998682I think I will steal this idea(heh).I have a EX Model Albion stored in my closet.I can also learn to weather it.Do you guys think that the short time it was on Australia was enough to cover it in a layer of sand?
>>23999798>English voice for Amuro RayHe talks in Japanese though
>>23999789Do you think Lalah did the Hindu dung burning ceremony in the Gelgoog cockpit to keeps him safe?
>>23999761>did the same paintjob three times and never figured how to properly thin the paint
>>23999805I believe minor paint chipping or just plain panel lining would be fine. A rusty space ship doesn't seem very safe.
>>23999826Not gonna entertain you
>Still no reprintJust destroy the mold if you are not gonna use it, Bandai
>>23999827I don't want it to look too pristine because of the sandy environment, but also to make the battle damage not look too much out of place.
>>23999830I heard they straight up don't print it anymore
>>23998241I've been working on this Academy kit, my first plane... I'm not sure I'm liking the result, I hope the decals and a bit of weathering helps.
>>23999785I wish scalpers would get scalped to death
How can bandai have the 7th largest IP in the world and just give a shit about plowing money into R&D? The Pokémon company is the same way. Is it a japanese thing or is the leadership uniquely adverse to progress?
>found out the next custom idea will need extensive masking around the chestfuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck I'm gonna get adventurous with the brush fuck it
>>23999831Well you will have to destroy part of the kit and then sculpt the damaged spots with some putty. Some paint chipping and some dirt on the surface would fit the battle damage.
>>23999838Bandai has better engineering than any other manufacturer short of perhaps the high end Chinese ones. Crying about Bandai is your personality, we get it. But at least cry about something that makes sense.
>>23999833The last print was in early 2018 i believe. It is one of the old HG without blue logo. Even the scalped stock on ebay is starting to run out of boxes to sell.
>>23999805Probably not by the time of the gundam jack, it basically just landed
>>23999847feeling more and more justified for having paid only 50 bucks for it back in the day
>>23999843NTA, Bandai's engineering was good in the 2000s when they were still using polycaps. They knew how to make kits with polycaps to be as solid as a rock . From 2010 onwards, their kits seem to wear off faster.
>>23999857My first kits were bought in 2015 and they're still solid. Maybe don't pretend they're toys you can go pew pew with?
>>23999843They have incredible engineering but they simply dont apply it. Look at how amazing the MGSD line is but then you get to the new MGEX and there answer is a reprint with a new back pack for $100 more.
>>23999860This is the same argument you use everytime. Gunpla doesn't have that kind of tolerance to go pew pew in the first place. Not to mention 2015 was the era where HGs were at their worst. Alot of Zeta HGs suckass, IBO HG happened. Compares to the good old days where you had good shit like Zudah, Rick Dias, Sazabi, Geara Doga and so on, 2015 HGs look pathetic in comparison.
>>23999850>>23999840How do I blend both?Do I make it mostly pristine and just weather and modify it where the battle damage happened?
>>23999865>you Who am I then motherfucker? I LORD over you.
>>23999855I'm sad that Bandai just forgot about G Saviour. Even if they want to ignore the movie, the videogame has plenty of material to make kit out of it. MW Raid is pure sex and i want a kit of this guy.
>>23999830>Okawara designed itand Masahisa Suzuki. I thought bandai hated this thing because it was made by Canadians but it wasn't even
>>23999872It was featured in build fighters so they didn't 100% forget about it.
>>23999874The late Masahisa pitched the idea of a skinny Gundam with giant backpack. This is quite literally Ariel lol.
>>23999878
>>23999874Don't worry G-Saviour is going to reevaluated harder than the fucking SW prequels after the new movie comes out.
>>23999875The movie is still belonging to the main UC rather than alternative UC like The Origin and Thunderbolt so atleast there is a regconition.
>>23999883My only complain is the niggress not being hot enough to be a love interest. But after seeing her in 2D form, i can understand what Mark saw in her now. 10/10 would have interracial sex with.
What's the best way to get the streaky, shaded effect from this box art? Dot streaking with oils is a bit subtle.
>>23999886Candy coat
>>23999883RFV made me like ms igloo. God what a shit show that series was.
>>23999886Drybrushing on top of a gloss coat, enamel reverse washing, weathering pastels, maybe a little overpolishing here and there>>23999887He's talking about the wear & tear not the paint finish
Zeon NTR in progress
>>23999900AIIIIIIIIEEEEEEE NOT THE DREISSEN NOOOO DOMS ARE THE TRUE SPIRIT OF ZEON NOOOOOOO
>>23999870I suggest you to give it putty texture if battle damage is what you are aiming for. A rough surface helps making the damage looks more natural, especially if you paint it to look lore accurate with the white and red colorscheme.
>>23999900>Unicorn DreissenEwww
>>23999888Igloo was always good coward.
>>23999724What's the saying again? >For our mint green and pure world! Pretty sure that's correct. Anyway the legs and arms came together pretty quickly. Pretty decent range of motion after I figured out how to raise the shoulder. Also what color are the chest vents supposed to be for some reason the mint green isn't looking right.

>>23999948SEETHE, ZEEKSCUM.
Building the Sheik Mainland Yunque rn. About 3/5ths done, doing the arms now. The design reminds me of a kind of Armored Core and Gundam SEED/00(wing thrusters and verniers on the back)It's solid as a rock, like more than my RG kits— it's probably my heaviest kit too. It'll stand on its legs just fine once too you've got the balance right. God DAMN the leg pegs were hard to fit into the socket though. Same with the ball joint for the feet
>>23999956oh that's a cool face
>>23999956I should get this kit too, I like how the head resembles a pilot's helmet in a way

I wonder if you could just ask E2046 what the pre-order quota is and just buy 50 kits to get your Waifu recasted.
>>24000048You can try
>>23999919And finished the snapping. Discovered all the markings are stickers, so I'll have to dig into my generic water slides for some EFF markings. I can't remember if I have unit numbers or not.
>nicked my right thumb making a silver ring on tuesday>nicked my left thumb working on a model todayGiving blood sacrifices to two different gods is though work.
>>23999956Sheik's 1/144 label kits are all extremely solid. And also really stiff and tough to get the main joints together.
>>24000093Where's his chin? Also I wonder why it has blue Londo Bell emblems. Shouldn't they be red for a CCA Jegan?
>>23999952>zeek tries to claim the symbol of the people, the GMdo not reply to me ever again, spacenoid
>>24000129Uhhhh, I need to go dig in my garbage for the runners. >>24000093Also went with these. I really need to get a sheet with unit numbers and also some more organizations (had no Londo Bell).
>>24000134Chin found. Also seriously confused on why G-Rework made their clear film UV reactive for no reason.
This kit is so fun. I wish the winch cable was stiffer for posing though.
>try to find that one 3P FA Hyakushiki an anon took photos of>got startled by picrel insteadNeed me a Jegan, but also was this meant to be a Votoms thing or is this just a sheer coincidenceI'm 70% sure it was someone's build here>>24000134>>24000142Is the MG good? The gap between the legs and the pelvis threw me off, but I realized that even the actual mobile suit design itself seemed to sorta have that
Wait why the fuck is the Jegan now 30 CADIt used to be 25What fucking gives
>>24000151You can replace it with gardening wire.
>>24000157Good idea. I kind of want to do a pose of them tying up another kit with the winch.
>>24000153It's seeming pretty solid with staying in a couple poses I tried with decent movement. Surface details seem nice balance for a grunt suit. As for the legs/pelvis, are you sure you weren't looking at pictures of it with the hips dropped? The MGs gap is about what it needs to be for a 90 degree forward bend which is needed for kneeling.
>>24000155Inflation
>>24000155Thank epstein alliance for the iran war which makes literally everything in life more expensive (oil).
I'd like more gunpla of nonstandard mobile suits such as the Torohachi and the Draken-E.

>>24000205Maschinen Krieger might be right up your alley.
>>24000161Glad to hear it, and I genuinely have no idea. People are fucking retarded with their photos and I didn't feel like going through a review for an MG that wasn't a top priority, but I'm glad to hear that the gap isn't even that bad>>24000194Thanks I hate it>>24000199Thanks I hate it, but also other HGs I was eyeing didn't jump literally $5 in price the way the Jegan did>>24000209Why is this worded as if I'm a burger you fucking retard>failed the "go a day without mentioning America" challenge because you read "CAD" as "USD", or just because burgers lived rent-free in your head

What black magic do chink/jap plastic have that when they fall to the floor, they suddenly develop more fucking bounce and elasticity than a goddamn rubber ball that makes them yeet themselves into the void out of your sight.
>>24000413You forgot to provide offerings to appease the gunpla gnomes and plamo zashiki warashi.
I was enjoying MG DX quite a bit until I finished the backpack and realized just how shitty the waist was. It just can't support the upper body with that big ass backpack on it. And with the ton of polycaps this thing has, I bet it'll be super floppy in just a few months.
>>23998481cool site. ill post some of my own third party kits there>>23998620do consider scraping the info from gunpla.fyi though, which is just a listing of every kit in bandai's own online manual databasealthough i guess you'd still need to manually collect pics unless you only want the box art photo

>>24000439Unfortunately, gunpla.fyi, dalong, and even obscure sites like gunpladb.net don't have the data I need for the site. The information on there is very minimal and not even worth scraping (I could get the data just as fast by looking up the bandai kit up on the gunpla wiki while inputting it manually).Even dalong doesn't actually have much information that's actually the kind I want on the database, they mostly post long text reviews.

Does anybody have a throwaway account to share for 78dm.net? It seems to have a ton of info on Chinese kits.It requires a Chinese phone number...
>>23999690>absolute cheapest Gundam kit you can buy right nowthe gundam factory in yokohama sells a 1/200 scale non grade rx78 for 100 yen. but only if you visit in person and take the tour
>>24000559is that the one people assemble in the bag?
>>24000048their less-scammy taiwanese competitor GK-M does actually show the preorder quota. it's not 50, more like 3 to 8 POs depending on the parts count of the kit https://www.shop2000.com.tw/GKMODELfor example this z'gok conversion kit is at 3/5 POs before they produce it
>>24000407and done.HG Vayeate & Mercurius.Before vs After
>>24000565Final pose.not gonna use the face mask and detach the funnels
>>24000568Back view.I encountered so much accident trying to partial paint this fucking backpack, but I'll never see it again anyway.
>>24000511>kyrios missingwhere the fuck did it go
>>24000571with the BIG BOSS (Master Grade (Daban))
>>23999616>>23999623Don't give me my vote until you see a finished product worth voting for, but the encouragement is appreciated. That said, I'm not sure I want to feel like ripping off >>23999620 so I may opt for a different vocal synth theft, although I am sorry anon, I probably won't go Rin as I am unsure I want to spend what little hobby time I have over the next month or two painting yellow.>>24000565>>24000568>>24000571>>24000573Hell yeah, I have an old NG Vayeate that I want to give proper loving restoration too, but I am waiting for a restoration/kick up the arse group build to do it. Love how they came out anon.
>>24000573with sloppa background
>>24000048My only question that I would really have is "how long will you persist with pretending it will be preorder before you close it off and let me send my money to one of the many Last Batch things you seem desperate to sell anyway?"
>>24000577Final.I'm quite satisfied with the result. technically speaking, this HG is very good. very crisp snap fit. easy to disassemble aside from the silver cylinder things on the shoulders and crotch, which are close to impossible to detach once slotted in. So if you're painting it, make sure to not assemble those pieces. webm related is the only thing I'd consider a weakness. hip to tight joints are very loose. also, this kit is too expensive for a HG. fuck you P-Bandai. I bought it at 2x MSRP, more expensive than MG Vidar.
>>24000572That was from when I was in 5th grade. It's probably somewhere in old storage room with my old manga. Backstory: I begged my mom to buy me 1/100 Astray Gold Frame Amatsu Mina, but it wasn't in stock so I coped with 1/100 Kyrios instead.
>>24000559They gave this out at Anime Expo a few years ago. I have it in my closet somewhere
>>23998590Do you know anyone with a 3d printer?
Any ideas for Gouf and Gouf custom color scheme? Looking at wiki for MSV and Ace pilot list, but there are so few results and most of them are just different shades of blue with one unique white unit
>>23998811>get bootleg efreet nacht, wrists are terribly loose and floppy>lesson learned, get actual efreet schneid, neck is terribly loose and floppyI can't win
>>24000679>>get bootleg efreet nacht, wrists are terribly loose and floppyi have one, and it is fine you just need to push it deeper
>>24000285You're just a burger with extra steps
>>24000730Yeah it's called a boarder
Fucking Takeshit must be becoming lethargic. It takes over a week for my package to even leave Japan while it crosses the pond, passes through customs and arrives at my doorstep in less than a week.
>>24000676Just paint it however you wish.The White Gouf is somewhat common because it's the default color for the bootleg.
new Changthis one doesn't look too bad imo
>>24000814Can't tell if bandai or chang at this point.
>>24000676Paint it in ms igloo tan
>>24000814>MGEX Virtual On
>>24000817It looks like something from Rogue Orbit. This is a sad reality we are living in.
>>24000820It doesn't
>>24000405you mean old hexa gear revived.... I dont think any of the molds are new?
>>23999798btw, here's my con haul
>>24000820Why is it sad?
New Chang Zaku kit, based on RockyQ design.
>>24000679>wrists are terribly loose and floppyThat was a problem with my STAR Efreet Jaeger and doing >>24000680 fixed it. The XFS Nacht is actually worse because the knives tend to pop off and the butterfly mechanism in the shoulders is fucked so you can't pull the arms out of the torso without them popping off.
>>24000836based on some Zaku design or did Rocky just wing it?
>>24000847an abomination combination of blaze zaku, the re/100 F2 or whatever it is, and then.. probably something else.
>>24000847RockyQ is this Chink who sells 3D printed gundam kits his Patreon. He gets pissed everytime other Chink studio make plastic kits out of his 3D models, which is ridiculous because he is already selling illegal gundam models to begin with.
>>24000836The head reminds me of Zakurao or whatever's the name of that one late UC Zaku variant
>>24000836>Zaku [Fuckass type]that's nice I guess but not my thing at all
>>24000849was he the guy behind that one Ez8 chinkpla?
>>24000861Probably. The Chinese Jedah is also came from him.
