-=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:
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.simplemobilephotoresizer

== 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!

What the fuck happened? We don't have moderation for the rest of this shithole but they can delete the Gunpla thread for no fucking reason?

>>24029180
is the texture on the second barrel from the top supposed to be like that? looks like a thick hair got stuck under the paint
>>
>>24029168
yeah, a huge reason why the 00 S2 designs feel like such a downgrade

It was really nice seeing people be honest and amicable in this thread over the state of things even if I don't agree with how a lot of you view things politically. As the adage always went however, mods=fags.

I'd honestly post here more if Hiroshima didn't make me jump through hoops just to post without paying him.

Mods don't like when 4chan is called a dead website.

He means in a fixed pose state with the torn clothes. The model kit doesnt have any of that.
