Question. How do you all use plastic cement in terms of fixing broken things, not seam welding. I have a peg that broke in half, removing the balljoint needed to connect the limb. in terms of how long we should let it sit after putting cement on both parts, and how much time we should apply force.

I have alligator clips for help if needed. If cement doesn't work I have super glue, but I would prefer to try cementing it just for the experience.
>>
>>5331982
I sand it down, glue it and hold it tight under a fan

Thanks, I looked that up. Will attempt just using cement first since sometimes that is successful, if that doesn't work I can pin it.

The problem is even if you cement it, it's going to lack the sturdiness and probably break again

Was talking with a friend about gunpla when the following topic came up, and now I'm interested in hearing what you guys think.

>When making a gunpla custom of a non-gundam character, how similar to the source material should it be?

For example, pic related. The color scheme obviously draws from Bayformers Optimus Prime, but it's also clear that design-wise it's a recolor and detailed-up Astray. There aren't tyres hanging off the thighs or gas tanks on the back.

I suppose the question can also be, if one is going to be scratchbuilding anyway, do you think they should aim for "as similar as possible to X" or "reminds people of X"?
>>
>>5332742
I tend to stick with just a build that reminds people of the character it's referencing, for example just a similar colour scheme or a similar looking silhouette/shape for the body. Otherwise it starts looking very muddled, loses its identity and just looks silly.

did you take pictures of the package as you were opening it to show what was there before you took it out? if not, write off the loss
>>
>>5333614
maybe the Bandai VF-1S was a storefront item, was sold out, and you clicked on the option of ordering everything else anyways if storefront items were out of stock.

or you just ordered from a different store in mandy. I'd double check your reciept
>>
>>5333620
I don't think it was a storefront item (checking Order Status just lists it as "Shop Item," but I'm not sure if they also list storefront items like that), and I just rechecked everything to confirm that they were all from SAHRA.
>>5333619
No, I didn't take pictures of the package while opening it. I guess I'll just write the experience off as a loss (unless Mandarake replies otherwise), and see if I can get my money back from PayPal (although I doubt it).

Try checking you order status for that order, if the VF is x0 it means it was sold.

Hey I kind of want to begin gunpla, and I read the guide, but I'm not super sure on one point. Do most of the kits come pre-painted? I'm absolutely shit at painting and have little to not interest in it, so if not that's kind of a deal breaker.

Try using the rear facing camera instead of the front facing one. That should have an auto focus at least.

Can anyone that owns the HGUC Zeta and HGUC Victory do a compare shot? I want to prove to someone that they're not the same size. They want to know how the Victory chest would look on the Zeta. I say it'd be tiny as hell, and he said that it'd be fine.

So that's how he found out the design. Holy shit. I should have known something was up.

If the faggot from Reddit sees this
Research your shit. Then again I had a hard time trying to find size comparisions, so you're cool. I'd go with Gundam X for the chest. I believe that'll work. I could be wrong. I only own Gundam X and Wing. Don't own Zeta, or the other parts to your build.

>>5334066
>I'd go with Gundam X for the chest
Niggah that shit is the same size as Victory.
>>
>>5334066
Actually lets take apart his build.
Head: Stark Jegan
Torso: Victory Gundam
Arms: GM Custom
Legs: Zeta Gundam

Victory is way too small. And all the other parts are way smaller then Zeta as well.

0/10 not possible even if he got a good sized chest.
>>
>>5334084
Even if the parts were compatible, wouldn't it still look like something outta Frankensteins lab?

>>5334084
Use 1/100 Victory and maybe the Asshimar's legs for a better scale

Either way, the only thing that wouldn't fit would be the Victory. He'd either have to use the MG Victory, or exchange the chest with Gundam X. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
