Got a bunch of stuff built over the week, need to do better about keeping things from backlogging so bad..Fencer is awesome! She doesn't give me that strange unfinished feeling I got from normal Kagutsuchi. Her expressions are great and her weapon poses pretty well despite her unfortunate lack of a stand.100% get her and her sister kit. Both are fantastic kits.
Honey is another great kit. Her joint tolerances are a bit of a mess on the way too tight side, but nothing that can't be fixed. This is how I wish all the plamatea kits are designed. I don't understand how the quality of this line varies so tremendously, her sculpt is excellent, it takes a lot to actually break her sculpt.
Castoria does some new things here with her cloak, kinda to its detriment. Instead of pegs it uses... tape... which makes sense for how thin the parts are, but I still find it quite odd. The staff of selection has great color separation, and the gold is very very nice for injection plastic.The crown jewel of the set though is the faces. They perfectly capture her character.Honestly this kit is nearly on par if not dead even with the figma. The faces here may actually be better, while certain joint set ups may vary. Also the figma has a stand, and she kinda needs one.
Belveria is a pretty standard 30ms kit all in all. She has some problems with loose torso joints, and her back gun mounts collide with her hair and block movement constantly.If you can't find Sestia go for her, she uses the vast majority of the same parts on her body.Her smaller weapons remind me an awful amount of some armored core pulse back weapons... also the long rifles have slots to connect them to the short guns when stored on her back, letting you have all her weapons stored.
Garm!She's TINY!I've gotten so used to massive MD girls that having a slim normal M-type. She is extremely different stylistically from past girls, with a build full of tiny nondescript parts. Honestly I wouldn't bat an eye if I was told she was a crossover character.Despite her own petite figure she comes with a monstrous amount of alternate parts. She has almost an entire second body included, only missing thighs and some internal joints to have an entire striped down Garm separately.She's pretty fun, if you can get her I recommend it. She isn't the best MD ever, but she is so unique the build alone is worth it.
>>11789794At what point in the creation of the model do you consider it completed? Well done on getting through the backlog.
>>11789812so mad i missed out on Garm. she really does look cute
>>11789812I'm surprised how much I like Garm. Really nice build, hopefully it'll be like the ASRA girls where we get tons of variants down the line, would love one with a proper gasmask like Tamamonomae.She matches nicely with the Picco Neemo jacket Azone released the other month too.
>>11789887Depends on the kit. If it's a Gundam fully color corrected and panel lined, sometimes with more detail picked out. For 90%of girlpla I won't paint, but I will often modify in some way.
>>11790003Did you use a matte spray on her?
>>11789812Wanted to actually get her last time I ordered stuff from Suruga-ya but she was somehow missing and not even as sold out - her Japanese name would instead only show her "sister" as preorder. Odd.
>>11790028No. I build way too much to worry about topcoat when half the time it ends up getting scratched by the edge of an armor part. If I do a full paint job I will, but that is a different process.
Don't remember her sleeves being that long in the teasers.
>>11790108Extra parts. She used to just have her hands exposed.
I built her the other day, she is so cute and stylish. Very interesting kit to build, but the neck falls off a bit too easily and her leg is a bit loose
>>11789784Boobs are awesome
>>11790028Girlpla tends to look matte be default
>>11789495Anyone?
>>11790481How are her fancy eyes?
>>11790541They work quite well but the missing face plates with expressions is something I miss. They have a catlike appearance and I love them for that though
>>11790536https://www.youtube.com/shorts/T8J5Vg92tXQThere's an English Audio track
>>11790481Common Megalomaria problems. My green glass and first principal had knees so week they couldn't stand out of box. I guess that's better than Honey's self destructing ankles though.>>11790536Same fairly high quality as snail shells clothes. Some seams are a little thick for my taste, but you can hide them pretty easily.
Bought some resin parts and I want to get the same skin color as Yuki Tu. Anyone know what paint to get the same color as the plastic? I think the booklet gives different color
>>11790677Yuki Tu is skin color B. The color guides in the back of the manuals are always as close as you can get as they're rough estimations that you have to slightly experiment with yourself. There's also no pre-bottled stuff that matches Koto's B, C, D, or E skin (only A).
So how do you guys connect the 30ms base bodies to gunpla? I've got an idea for a custom but there's no real way to get the legs of let say, the revive hguc gundam mk ii to the upper thigh of the 30ms base body. Do any of you have experience with that?
>>11790758Plastic surgery because they aren't really compatible.
>>11790779That is quite unfortunate
>>11790758A bit yeah. There's no easy way about it, you will have to make custom adapters. Either take a tube that fits into the thigh connection and sand it until it fits the MKII's connection, use pla plate to create friction between the leg and thigh peg or stack pla plate, glue, drill a hole and sand the connector until it fits.
My birthday present finally arrived. Little damaged boxes (there was protocol attached to package itself, stating that my national post received it in heavily damaged state) but contents seems to be fine. I normally press 30MS optional parts boxes anyway but don't like Kotobukiya squeezed box front.
