>when you do a near perfect snip from a gate, leaving little to nearly no nubwork
>>5426122
Post your stations!
First for most disappointing midseason upgrade in decades.
>>5426215
Nice Kramer. Also, you and I have basically the same set-up.
>>5426187
buy god hands cum all the time
>>5426221
Try Build Burning still holds the title of most dissapointing. People legitimately dislike the new Barbados, Try was just a boring revamp with more glowy bits.
>>5426221
Wtf am I looking at? It just has new shoulder armor, arm guards, and higher heels? Is Bandai serious? The entire studio should be sacked after this travesty.
>>5426221
I don't even know where to even start. I like the design of the shoulders, but they're too much like this new Graze's. Not to mention the Valvraves.
>>5426221
>not liking feminine robutts
What are you gay?
>>5426221
Um, just what is that weapon?
Hip thrusters are cool though
>>5426265
They're the same shoulders, except that flange hanging on the side
>>5426215
It's pretty messy right now.
>>5426285
Shit, you're right. But like I said, I kind of like them. If anything, they're a bit too high up though.
>>5426215
Is that airbrush booth new? Shit is way too clean.
Also protip, I use the same one and you should tape up the cracks where it unfolds because excess paint particles will go through them
>>5426277
That's not feminine. It's just a masculine suit wearing heels. It's a tranny at best.
>>5426221
Im starting to see a sign of zeta
>>5426215
So for those of you who wash your runners, do you wear gloves after?
>>5426355
>Long legs
>Slender waist
>Protruding chest
Seems good to me
>>5426389
>giant shoulders
>thick arms
Nope
>>5426390
>Women can't wear armor
>>5426397
If a women is in armor then her figure wouldn't be feminine
Good job disproving your own argument fag
>>5426397
Women combatants are just for show
>>5426399
Wow you sure showed me, too bad the rest of popular eastern designs don't agree with you.
>>5426418
Wow you sure are a defensive little faggot.
Barbados is masculine, deal with it nerd
>>5426424
>Here's an example of where you're wrong
>NEERD
Nice chat we had there friendo.
>>5426432
Because your argument is comparing generic anime bitch in "armor" to a robot
It's not even fucking worth it and you aren't either, nerd.
>>5426439
Keep moving that goalpost
>>5426432
Well you ARE in an argument about the secondary gender characteristics of a genderless cartoon robot.
As far as being a fucking loser goes you're in pretty deep.
>>5426442
Good thing we're on an autistic internet imageboard and in a thread about small plastic robot toys to boot.
>>5426447
It takes a special type to get defensive and argue about a robots gender and you're overachieving that grade
>>5426449
Hey I was just agreeing with you :^)
>>5426447
Yeah. Both of those are true; and neither one explains why you're so mad about someone disagreeing with your appraisal of robot gender.
>>5426418
>>5426441
This dude>>5426439 is right. Youre using a shit animugirl to show for your "women in armor" Like something like this is alright for women, kinda hides feminine features unlike that eastern design that was probably made by a dude who cant look women in the eyes
>>5426418
If you put a guy in that suit of armor he'd look feminine too.
>>5426502
The problem with that is the Barbatos WAS designed by an easterner and I thought it would have been more appropriate to use something relatable. There's aren't really any recent animations that really care about accuracy when it comes to designing western style armor, and the only thing close would be vidya from FromSoft or Capcom.
Either way I'll still order the new Barbatos even with the silly block hammer/mace
Are there any lacquer gloss coats in a bottle that are as strong as Testors One Coat Wet Look gloss? I'm looking for durability specifically
>>5426536
>le trannybot maymay
I want /m/ to leave.
>>5426539
Is it really that strong? Wet look is almost like plastic hard when applied properly.
>tfw only models left it my Backlog are MG Crossbone X1 and MG Rick-Dom.
i want to get more but i know i have no room.
how do you call it quits
>>5426546
I used it on my candy coated MG Unicorn and the paint has survived transformation a few times so I'd say it's pretty strong.
Alternatively you can try decanting
>>5426555
It's too cold to decant. It's like 20 degrees here and it probably won't degas properly.
>>5426566
Man up and do it inside with a mask and a vented window
>>5426573
You do it and ship it to me.
>>5426578
Give me your address and what you want bitch boy
>>5426221
Yeah it's brand new. And thanks for the tips! I'll do that.
>>5426532
Well fromsoft has people wear actual armor as they design stuff for the souls series. Like the only feminine thing is just the heals, the rest looks pretty normal. But yea that mace/hammer is interesting, im thinking it may open up trick-weapon style. Like the mace had a spear/pile bunker
>>5426221
>midseason upgrade
It's not even midseason, it's probably going to show up by episode 20 and at that point we'll be in the last leg of the show. It's the final form and it looks garbage
>>5426532
>There's aren't really any recent animations that really care about accuracy when it comes to designing western style armor,
Maria the Virgin Witch, and no don't take this as a 'haha you wrong imma correct you', take this as a 'if you aren't aware of Maria, then go and watch it.' I don't think I have EVER seen anything animated with that level of accuracy for the 100 year war armor. Ignore the outfits of the witches and their familiars, everything else is extremely accurate, even the combat itself during war scenes follows a lot of the old paintings.
For painting boosters, should it go silver for the inside and gunmetal outside or the other way?
>>5427096
go look at pictures of jet thrusters
Ok sorry, got a stupid question. What do you guys do for replacement parts? Bandai and Bluefin give me the run-around and send eerily similar emalis back about some yet to be finished parts service but it's been over a year and they still say the same thing today.
Also, to those who made the guide, thank you, you are angels in human form. There may be an answer to this question in there somewhere but I'm still making my way through it as it's a pretty hefty amount of information to read.
>>5427096
alclad do a shade called exhaust manifold
>>5427115
What did you lose? Also give it up, unless its a commonly broken part.
Finished this snap fit right now. Waiting on new paints.
>>5427134
it's a shin piece that connects to the flap over the ankle on the banshee
warning giant file size inbound
>>5427132
Not that good enough plus no airbrush yet. But what I see is that usually the inside is the shinier/chrome colored.
>>5427154
you can actually get metal thruster pieces
>>5427161
this.
If you're not airbrushing but want a metal look, then why not just use metal?
Dem katoki proportions and legs
>>5427323
gbf season 3 confirmed, no but seriously, looks neat minus the coloration on the shoulders but that could come down to picture quality

>>5427479
make ur own mix and match
>>5427525
It's deceptively simple, but holy moley, pic related.
>>5427539
>There's something really off-looking on metal parts on plastic.
It's the scale.
Metal parts actually look really good on something like a 1/12 bike, but on a 1/100 robot a huge hunk of bare metal just looks unrealistic.
Last one. Officially stamped build # 6 this year.
>>5427581
You've built 6 kits in a month?
I'm not trying to be an elitist, but you should spend more time on them, maybe paint some parts, topcoat, etc
>>5427588
Not him but building oob is relaxing.
Painting and top coat is nice but all that thought of scratched paint is really sad so I only do that for some kits.
>>5427594
Im not trying to be an elitistfag or tell people how to enjoy their hobby. It just seems like a lot and really quick, just think he should slow down a bit and take in everything.
Or maybe I'm just a really slow builder, I usually only do maybe 1 or 2 every two months but I began fully painting/detailing all my kits. I realize its not for everybody and I'm not saying he should do it but I've found myself appreciating and enjoying every kit I finish now a lot more than the ones I snapbuilt quickly
>>5427601
I take forever painting a kit since I fuck up constantly and I don't have an airbrush, so I'll build a few kits in between just out of box. I wish I could show my most recent build, but my phone won't connect to my computer.
>>5426389
>I have no idea how proportions work, it's crazy!
>>5427588
two were started last year, both MG's, only finished this year.
One was just the RG Skygrasper. The three are OOB HG's I just wanted to do while waiting for stuff to come in for work.
If I "elitist' build everything, I'll never finish anything, only really have weekends for r&r and even then, I get dragged out by family and friends.
Actually had to turn my phone off so I can have some 'me time' today, kek.
>>5427569
most materials look good on a 1/12 bike though, you can get ultra realistic with painted parts too, it's just a very easy scale to work with
>>5426221
Doesn't look any uglier than any other main gundam, honestly.
>>5427605
postimg.org, then just type out the image link and download it
>>5427605
You could email the image to yourself, I do that all the time
>>5426221
I love FSS and hate this
if I posted this 2 years ago claiming it was a chinese knockoff people would have said it was the worst thing ever made
>>5427601
Don't worry I understand where you are coming from.
I do a little detail painting here and there when it's needed.
Didn't like how Nix Providence's back hardpoint was literally just a hole in the back so I built some detail around it with some layered styrene. The putty is just to make sure the surface of the leveled pieces is smooth and even and will be sanded tomorrow.
>>5427675
Nice work, it's the little details that make all the difference.
>>5426122
ok guys in need of help here. an acquitance of mine is building his first Gunpla kit, the Exia Dark matter. He came across something in the customize advice that he can't figure out for detailing the Ice sword. I had a look myself using 1999, and I can't figure out exactly what they are doing either.
Is anyone familiar with what is going on here? as far as we can tell it looks like some kind of paper is colored then somehow attached to the blade, but that doesnt seem right to me.
>>5427684
I scribed some panels here and there and rebuilt the shoulder peg connection while I was at it. I was going to do more but I'm starting to burn out and just want to move onto the cleaning stage and start painting now.
>>5427688
Yeah, it's hard to see but they are using a sort of adhesive paper to color the blade rather than painting it. They display a similar technique with foil paper for chrome details and car modelers sometimes do something similar for chrome trim.
>>5426122
>used my model as the OP image
SICK
>nub marks circled
FUCK
>>5426258
Cry more you entitled fucking faggot
>>5427564
love 90% of the design, but man that head is not pretty.
do you have any other heads that can fit the joint?
just did my first paint job. kind of think I went overboard, but I'm happy with it. used acrylic paints and a glue gun
>>5427805
Finished painting my super-gm. Got a few touch ups to do and some decals, overall im happy with how it came out
>>5427823
are you saying it's bad? I know it's incredibly messy but it's my first.
>>5427827
No what he means is that you are free to do what you want. Anyway yeah i also think you went a little bit overboard
>>5427827
Ever play soma? It looks like the tallgeese got into structure gel. Its messy and alot of it just looks like flayed plastic. But not bad for your first time
>>5427594
>building oob is relaxing
It is pretty nice to settle into your work space, put on some music and then start snipping away at a runner for an hour or two after a long day
>>5427800
lolololol
>>5427839
The rx-78 and re-gez look pretty neat on it
>>5427841
Gotta get another Bawoo.
>>5427852
It's kinda ugly. The body doesn't really fit with any other Gundam aesthetic. The body looks like it belongs to a Sumo wrestler.
Gonna stop now to not take up image space.
But wow, this one actually looks p-good.
>>5427854
Round heads, eg Gouf, Zaku, GM might work okay with it, but I dont have any of those handy atm. Turn A Shin head looks disgusting on it, but regular Turn A head might work.
>>5427805
Well uh.. Next time buy a cheaper model and try looking up some weathering techniques and practice with that. Also try looking into real life weathered objects for a comparison because truthfully this kind of looks like black paint smeared on with a brush than any sort of weathering. But just look at this one as a learning experience and a example of what to avoid the next time you get a kit
>>5427800
from the looks of the IBO OP the new Hyakuren variant has a slimmer head and quad eyes
>>5427879
will do, thanks
>>5427824
Got some on and now the shields have some "battle damage"
Couple of questions about panel washing:
Can you the Tamiya pre mixed with lighter fluid?
Is a couple of days too long to wait before cleaning up the wash since I ran out of lighter fluid.
>>5428146
ok not a zee zulu, forgot about the scuba tubes
Can lighter fluid clean enamel that has been dry for about a week?
>>5428333
if it's been a week the bonding process is already finished, friend.
>>5428343
So I'd have to use enamel thinner or sand it?
>>5428350
I think enamel thinner on bare plastic will destroy it
>>5428350
Oven cleaner may do the trick. Not sure though.
>>5426215
Ver. 3 of my station. The final two steps will be getting an actual Belvoir to replace my five dollar store copy and making a side-table for the laptop, so that I can quit abusing "Arms and Armour from Iran".
>>5427810
no panel lines or eyes?
>>5427823
>
Here's my first attempt at a complete repaint.
How'd I do?
>>5428692
>I'll try harder on the next one
Ehh, I'd advice against it, try to keep it simple and if you are set on weathering and battle damage make it subtle and sensible
>>5428835
nice
>>5428835
Was making him slightly hairy a part of your plan?
>>5428893
I did him a few months ago, dust's just collected
I really should have wiped that off befoire I took a picture, I know
Asked a thread or two ago, but I didn't get many responses, so I'm checking again. Anyone here with any experience with the Maschinen Krieger kits? I'm fairly interested in them, but they look a bit beyond my skill level, especially with the level of painting required. Or do they just look more difficult than they actually are? Any tips for gitting gud, especially with the 1/20 scale people?
>>5427323
you're looking at the pic from the wrong angle. it looks fine here.
>>5429109
>all those leg stickers

>>5428835
nice. what did you use?
>>5429117
>leg stickers
>not painting them on yourself
>>5429117
what the fuck are you talking about
>>5429120
Ok, that "EDGELORD" piece if the wing seems to be a part of the shoulder cannons so it will be optional to put on. But the details seem fucking awesome
>>5428692
>fucking lazy
then why bother destroying such a fine model if you can't at least put a little effort into it?
aside from the guide (which you should read), there are loads of tutorial videos from youtube or what have you, which can help you improve your techniques. and they only take about 3 minutes of viewing.
>>5429123
why would you split open the shoulder cannons?
the nu is HUEG
>>5429255
a little black paint on the eye piece to properly highlight the eyes with the led and the result is pretty good
putting on all those decals is very tiresome
>>5429260
Does the Nu have an easy switch for the eyes? I want more units with LEDs but the only one I've got right now is the 00 SS/G and it's obnoxious as fuck to turn on/off the LED in it's chest. The GN Drive ones aren't exactly easy either.
>>5429270
sadly no
you have to remove the back piece of the torso and the pull off the entire neck/head structure, turn on or off the led and put everything back together
pic related
>>5429255
it's probably my favorite build since they made the jump in engineering with the MK-ii 2.0 like 11 years ago.
holy fuck that thing in my closet is 11 years old.
nu is over 3 years old.
i am old.
I don't know guys.....think I'll be okay to paint tonight?
what's everyone working on?
>>5429589
Moving.
>>5429337
control your environment indoors, you are a human
>>5429337
sure go ahead
what can POSSIBLY go wrong?
>>5429589
Finishing up mods and cleaning on nix providence while I'm trapped in my apartment thanks to 3 feet of snow. Might work on my panzer IV later tonight.
>>5429596
You need to vent paint outside when you're spraying man.
>>5429589
Just living vicariously through you guys while I wait for my January order. I have too much free time and not enough other hobbies to build up a back log.
>>5429270
MG jesta is great. It just pulls out easily unlike the nu.
Just noticed I didn't completely clean off the paint on the left eye so here's a right side shot.
>>5429681
how do the funnels hold up? they will be last thing I'll work on mine but seems they are really flimsy to even hold together, maybe I should display them midair with the base?
>>5429687
I've had the nu 2.0 since release dec 2012, re-displayed multiple times with funnels in flight or racked up on his back, no issues.
even the KO ones that came in from hong-kong for the double funnel display are still fine
Another detolf fall (I really should stop posing kits on there) claimed my z'gok's arm. Poor z'gok.
Just a broken peg which cement will fix.
>>5429687
Their connection to each other isn't the strongest. It will hold but you will know when you come to it.
All 6 funnels when equipped WILL lean the nu to the side. (not to mention the risk of falling backwards but just be careful when posing)
Putting them on the stand display is better but that's my experience. >>5429690
>tfw only one new kit laying around the house & you're in the mood to get busy but it'll be a bit before you can buy some new shit
should i save it for desperate boredom or just chug along? pic is kit
And more progress on the z-knight.
Gloss black and silver on the forearm didn't come out the best but it's passable.
>>5429698
Heh, that posing makes him look like he is being arrested.
>>5429722
Oh no. I wanted to console him.
I guess that works too.
>>5429733
Close enough.
I'm finally going to make the transition from snapfag to paintfag, and this guy is gonna be my first. I picked him because he was cheap and easy to build, but painting him seems like it's actually going to be a bit of a challenge at some parts, mainly the shield.
Also, upon looking at this pic, I realize I need to do some work on a few nubs. But yeah, hopefully in a couple weeks time I'll have something worthwhile to show you guys.
I made a shorter domain for the Gunpla google doc. Rather if its ok, people can use it.
Gunpla.buyfags.moe
I'm cross-posting from the /m/ thread (I don't come to /toy/ very often, but the Gunpla thread here seems more active)
I've been working on my HGUC RX-78-2. It's not much but it's the first Kit I have done and actually painted, and it makes a world of difference. It wasn't anything special, just cans of Tamiya color but I do like the results. I didn't have anything to panel line with after I painted so it's not totally done yet.
I want to get a little better at painting on HG kits before I move on to the MGs I have in my backlog
>>5429887
Doesn't seem to be too thick so that's pretty good considering it was spray cans
Also is it me or is the red part of the shield coming off? the bottom should be flush with the white
Trim the safety nubs off the v-fin
>>5429125
Just Tamiya metallic spray cans.
>>5429898
>Trim the safety nubs off the v-fin
Different anon, but aren't they part of the official design now?
>>5429862
Some SD's are actually tons of work to do properly, this kit was one of the most challenging I've done due to the trim. If you're just starting out I'd suggest trying lots of different techniques and paint types on your SD so you can take that experience to another kit you care more about.
If you just try to do a basic paint job that's fine, I tried hard on my first kit too, but I think if I could go back I would do something like different brands of paints per limb, masking, different layers of paint etc. just to get more knowledge and experience which is what you lack in the beginning.
>>5429862
With SD, you practice both your masking and painting.
Good luck
Getting more done on this guy, he's gonna be one of my favorite bros if the rest goes well
I had to rip all of those 8 arm boosters off and then mask them and glue them back on, it was terrifying...
>>5429919
Not really, no. The revive box art doesn't have them nor does the art in the manual, even if the display build in the manual/box/etc has them untrimmed. Bandai also makes it a point to tell people to remove them anytime they do tutorials and tips.
Besides, official or not they look like shit
What colour scheme would make the jesta look less spec opsy? Would white work as a main colour?
>>5429950
>What colour scheme would make the jesta look less spec opsy?
Something vibrant and colorful. Bright reds, orange, yellow, that sort of thing.
>>5429898
You were 100% right about the shield not being properly affixed. I guess I just didn't push hard enough when I put it on the first time. As for the safety nubs, I was with >>5429919 originally and I thought they were part of the design now, but it looks a lot better without them.
Also, what would be the best Zaku II to pair with the HGUC RX-78-2? I am thinking the HG Origin version should work, but I don't know if the amount of detail in the Zaku would clash with the streamlined design of the HGUC Revive Gundam.
>RG Qant in fucking May
how the fuck am i supposed to wait that long for another RG worth building
>>5429950
>trying to make operators operate less operationally
Give it a new shitty gun and mount a standard federation shield on its arm.

i want to have it as like a display model in a mobile suit showroom
like anaheim are selling their new concept suits y'know
>>5430112
GM colors? GM III green?
>>5430118
Hmm maybe.
>>5430112
If it's a showroom piece I'd go for white and another color, red or yellow maybe, glossy too.
>>5429682
I did use references but I went overboard. I'm going to take more time and be more subtle, plus I'm going to do more planning. Now that I look at it, it just keeps looking worse and worse to me
>>5430245
it's easy to just keep going with weathering
You really need to plan it out first, even use the lineart pngs and just plan what you want, then you don't keep going OH LOOK A BLANK AREA and adding more
>>5429145
I meant lazy in the sense of line work, I was intending to make it look substantially damaged but I did it too much in excess. I plan on following references and guides more closely on the next one
>>5430251
exactly my point.
just buy a fine tip gundam lining marker or any fine tip marker for lining if you're lazy. other than painting and weathering, lining is right there at the top when it comes to making your models look better.
>>5429950
do char colors.
What is gunpla?
Why? Why does posting rotate the photos?
a heartfelt thumbs-up to anyone who can identify what this model is referencing.

that was exactly my mistake, I didn't know when to quit
that moment of truth feeling
>>5430526
No decals, no problem!
>>5430530
wew looks better than I was expecting
>>5430530
this corner at the bottom was the hardest part by far, not sharp enough to just use 2 straight pieces
>>5430539
It looks fine desu
>>5430541
thanks, I've never had to do these okawara style lines without decals before; it's a total pain. In retrospect it would have been better to paint everything this color first and then just mask it and paint it green, but I wasn't sure if I was going to have time for it. I used 1.5mm masking tape along the bottom edge then eyeballed the gap where the paint is to be 1.5mm so I always had a reference to make sure the line was the same thickness.

You should be damn proud those paint lines came out so clean.
It honestly looks like a decal. Good job.
>>5429926
looks really awesome, keep up the good work. you still gonna go with the MSV lines on it?

the HG X1 and p-bandai X2 don't have a skull on their chests and the MG X1 gives you the option of whether to use the chest piece with the skull or one without it; the p-bandai X2 doesn't have the skull chest either, it may have the parts for it but I don't remember since I didn't build mine that way. the HG X Maoh has an enormous skull on its chest but is a pretty good looking kit if you want to leave the skull off of it. These are the only crossbone/crossbone related kits I own so I can't speak on the rest of them.
Here's a pic of my MG X1 using the non skull chest piece for reference.
Also be gentle, it was my very first MG and I built it a long time ago
>>5430571
That's the plan, but the skirt lines are really complicated so I may modify them, there are a couple different schemes on the box too
>>5430381
What is this kit? Is it a total custom, or is there a base kit I can get of this somewhere??
>>5430583
Thanks, this looks great, but I'm not confident enough to get the MG.
Honestly I think the black chest is what makes these models look much better. Just look at the Mk. II and see how well the black chest looks on white and red.
Hopefully the HG X1 Crossbones has slightly darker chest piece.

Tiger and bunny kit with jesta gun and tallgeese back

well as I've said every time you've posted your work so far, I think you're doing a marvelous job so I definitely think you can pull it off; it will just take the same patience and skill you have been using already with this build. good luck, I can't wait to see how it comes out
>>5430591
oh ok gotcha, the MG isn't that bad, just a little finiccky in some places. I heard the FC was a whole other story though so I never picked one up. I really am not sure if the HGs chest is darker or not but I get wait you're saying, the MK-II is a great design. well then here's a pic of my HG X1 and X2 when I was still working on the X2. I should take some completed pictures of the X2 now that it's complete, but since it's almost 4 AM that will have to wait until tomorrow. Also the X1 is one of the easiest kits for nub removal in my opinion so you have that to look forward to as well.
Remember: Autistic children who use masking and thinner deserve our pity.
Relatively new but I was thinking about finally taking on something not HG. I know the guide suggests some good MGs but are RGs any more difficult? I was looking at a couple but I didn't want to get in over my head.

Stop bringing that up. It's not hard to find stupid people.

>>5430634
More difficult as in more smaller parts. That's it.
If you can follow the manual and not hamhand everything, you'll be fine
Is this where that Sinno girl is from?
Anybody know who I'm talking about?
>>5430530
Well done, airbrush decals are the bomb when they come out great

What do you guys keep your work tools in? I have a couple towers of plastic drawers for infrequent stuff like primer, extra paints, razor saws etc. but for hand tools I found this new box, it's a Sterilite 1402, which has divided compartments that are removable trays and it's really handy because you can just take out a tray for each part of what you're working on.
>>5430949
6 different boxes from Daiso, and another two tier rack for random junk
>>5430949
All over my desk.
