Old thread: >>11755404
Who /spacepack/ here?
>>11759807
I like it more than the atmospheric pac at least
>>11759807
purple reflector pack is better.
>>11759807
You know it.
Now I just need to actually get caught up on G-reco
>>11759807
It's coming. Eventually. I'm getting it almost just for the shieldand to add that core fighter to my collection.
Since the stand connector is on the pack itself rather than in the G-self's crotch, I think we can do some pretty fun modding stuff with that backpack.
>>11759824
that and the NotHuckebeinBoxerFrame
>>11759824
Obviously
>>11759807
I spacepack, but I wonder if you can put the packs on the Arcane. They are both G's after all
>>11759826
>he hasn't watched the recent episodes
High Torque Pack kit when?
>>11759833
>I wonder if you can put the packs on the Arcane
Can't in-universe, but I'm sure you can fit the ones that don't wrap around the G-Self just fine.
>>11759832
that thing was fucking stupid.
>no on-board weapons
>cant use handheld weapons
>armor in the wrong places
>engines pointed in the wrong direction
>does nothing but sit in the hanger then jump around on its own
why did they think this was a good idea? why do they keep slapping on new armor packs that they dont even know will work with no input from the pilot?
>hey there are 2 teams of airborne high mobility MS heading our way, better slap on a huge hulking armor pack with no ranged weapons
>oh btw it will take half an episode to calibrate and you'll need to get out to actually punch or kick things
kit unbought so fast.
>>11759833
>but I wonder if you can put the packs on the Arcane.
You could with a very minor bit of modding. The G-Self's rear torso has two parts: the inner part has 2 holes for the now standardized backpack attachments for GBF stuff, and another piece covers it up to give the G-Self it's single-slot attachment point. The G-Arcane has the standard 2 hole attachment point on part A1 12, so just place G-Self's back piece onto the Arcane (may need to shave off some of the sides), then attach the G-self specific backpacks on top of that.
>>11759855
Really? Thanks I didn't know that. I will definitely do that now though.
>>11759843
oh and the DBZ-tier fight scenes didnt help any either, even if they did look gorgeous.
>>11759843
I keep falling behind on G-Reco and Kamen Rider Drive, for some reason.
No problems keeping current with GBFT and ToQGer, though.
>>11759850
Firstly, wrong thread topic, but whatever
>why do they keep slapping on new armor packs that they dont even know will work with no input from the pilot?
Because they had been working on attaching the high torque pack before they knew wuxia were attacking. Remember, the Amerians are trying to figure out how these Rose of Hermes blueprints. While they need Bellri to test them, it's clear to the Amerians that Bellri's only there to spy on them, so as amicable as they treat each other, they're keeping their own interests in mind first.
>that thing was fucking stupid.
It tanked beam rifle shots. With no beam shield. In UC. That alone should tell you something.
>kit unbought so fast.
Well, there's no kit of it in future release schedules.
>>11759872
That looks sillier than the Core Fighter on the front of the G Armor.
>>11759879
G-Self has already been shown to deflect beams in a number of different ways on its own.
>>11759855
Different anon, but I just putting the Ez-ARMS on the GSelf and part of the back collar is in the way. Also putting the G-Self's rear torso on the Arcane doesn't go in all the way, but if you want to mod the parts then it should be able.
>>11759893
>it rotated the image
4chan pls
You should still be able to see what I'm talking about though.
>>11759886
only by application of its beam sabers, though, or through the reflector pack. The High Torque pack deflects beam rifle shots straight on its (photon?) armor.
>>11759893
>>11759899
Same anon.
Actually you don't need anything special to mount the Atmospheric backpack on the Arcane.
>>11759914
The tab holes do look similar, but are they the same? I wouldn't put it past them to make the dimensions slightly different.
>>11758995
There is really little comparison between the Technique Impossible
EVAs and the PG. The Technique Impossible Eva kits are perhaps the
most complicated and sophisticated models ever made, even moreso than any Gundam PG. The TI EVA kits
feature an entire internal armature of a complexity I have never seen
before in a for sale kit. As an example I believe there are something
like 50 pieces used for the construction of the spine/neck alone. The
internal structure has clavicles, a multiply ball jointed spine with
a limiter built in to keep the torso from twisting too far without
the appropriate downward bend to the spine.
Over all of this you than add a latex rubber skin, and then affix the
armor over the skin.
Visually, the most notable difference between the two kits are the
fact that the TI kits are a bit smaller than the PG, and more
strikingly you notice that while the PG is based on the static line
art, the TI kits are based on the lankier "angry" EVAs as they appear
in combat in the anime.
All in all, The Technique Impossible EVA kits are by far the most
complicated and technically impressive models I have ever seen
outside of a stop-motion armature. Back when I liked EVA, I started
building one of them (I bought them all as well as the PG), and never
completed it due to getting fed up with the series before finishing
the monster.
Good luck finding one for a reasonable price though.
>>11759924

WOnderful
Just got my Black Friday Banzai Hobby Gunpla in the mail. A HG Kampfer and a HG Zaku II. That's 2 out of 6 kits I'll need for my custom. Also the BF gift they gave me were the Kshatriya clear folder. The one I didn't want.
So which kit should I build first?
>>11759807
Man, all the G-Reco suits are so unlikable.
I just hate all their designs.

>>11760035
Just caught up on the /m/ threads from yesterday, holy shit, revolver Jegan is the best. Makes me happy to be alive.
More on topic, I'm contemplating getting the zaku sniper. Is it any good? Is the knee stand gimmick good?

>engaging in premarital sex
How uncouth
Sexual intercourse should be reserved for your on true love :3
>>11760080
it's a custom.
>>11760064
Really easy build, but only got two "real" poses, crouching and sniping high, or walking with the sniper low.
>>11760121
That's a little disappointing. But the crouching snipe is still a nice pose.
One more question. Is the gimmick knee specific to the zaku 1 leg, or could I pop it on any old zaku? I'm planning a kit bash.
>>11760110
Bummer.
>>11760148
The gimmick is part of the leg articulation, and pop up outside via a hole on the knee.
>>11760157
Good to know, thank you kindly for your help
>>11760035
I hope you get su-corded for not liking em, I mean cmon the jennaham looks pretty cool
>We'll get the finished post up before Thanksgiving I said, we'll get everything shipped out too
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Okay.
I THINK everything but the RG Exia has been sent out, and that's gonna get sent out soon.
The COllage and Honorable Mentions will be coming sometime soon, we're just not sure when. Hopefully before Christmas.
>>11760185
Disregard that, I suck cocks.
Been working on this guy and its quite a lot of fun. It's good to get back to the glorious MG inner frame.
Really can't wait to finish the strike pack and slap it on along with the edgie 9000 arm blade weapons.
Mfw light reflection looks like nubs.
On that note, the nubs aren't so bad but still need some work. I messed up and sliced my finger but just more blood for the Gunpla gods.Sorry for the ghetto setup, please no salt
>>11760210
Looks good man!
Is ANT here? I was hoping he could upload all of his builds to like an imgur album or something. I just like looking at them.
>>11760152

They're not that solid once you look at them close and long enough.
>photography skills
meh.
I'll make one now since I've been thinking about making one anyway.
>>11760358
>They're not that solid once you look at them close and long enough
I know the feeling man. Not from pla per se, but I show my music to people when I absolutely hate the version of whatever song I'm playing, and most of the time they're like "It sounds good man." Familiarity leads to contempt, and we're not completely intimate with your Stamens and Zetas and what not.
>>11760210
>mine still hasn't shipped

Haven't built a pg in ten years, but I've had a hankering to build one lately.

>>11760233amidoinitrite : http://anewtranslator.imgur.com/
Sorry it took longer. I was too anal to let the RG ones undone without the title image like the RX-78-2 that I had done long ago. Autism/10.A lot of them NEED to be retaken (RX-78-2, Stamen, as well as Nu new shots with fix if I ever get around to it. RX ones look like shit and need re-edit as well.)

>>11760529
Not 2nd L, 2nd L has the big giant sword. This is the Astray Blue Frame D.
Has anyone here tried liquid masking? Cause I would rather paint the gold on my sinanju then use stickers and I think liquid mask might be way to go.
>>11760544
Man, just use a thin brush and clean off the excess with a q-tip. People make this way more elaborate than it should be.
>>11760544
Do a reverse wash. Paint the piece gold then do a enamel wash over the piece in blade to paint the recessed areas, then use a qtip wetter with enamel thinner to scrub off any excess enamel. Obviously put on a lacquer clear coat between the gold and black wash.
>>11760575
Jesus Christ the auto correct on my phone is retarded try to read it, I believe in you
>>11760544
I use liquid mask, it's great. Simple, easy, fast.
Dont know what else to say
>>11760585
>>11760544
I want to get it on it as well. God knows the Nu would have been 1000 times easier and better with liquid mask.
The surface paint must be cured before application, yes?
amidoinitrite?
>>11760595
NO.You're meant to attach the legs to the potato, not WITH the pelvis.
>>11760591
Highly highly recommended. It can pull off the layer beneath when you remove the mask otherwise. Never had it happen to me on a big scale, primer really helps keep the masked paint down.
Also go find something which can thin the liquid mask you wish to use. Getting a favourite paintbrush all globbed up is just saddening.
>>11760601
dm legs are ball joint, so they dont fit, i can remove the beargguy leg joint and put the dm one but it was just for fun so i dont want to dismantle it
>>11760602
Thanks for the tip.
Either I am just shit with masking tape, or I keep getting shit masking tape. Even with pressing edges down with finger nails and what not, things still seep. Worse with hand paint, still small seeps with spray. I mean it's down to the awkward surfaces, but I'd hardly need to mask if the surface was easy to work with...
That's one of the reasons why I really liked anon's Ex-S entry with the two tone blue.
>>11760607
I know, I kid.
I wonder if that dragon dildo manufacturer guy will really send out all of those kits

Happened to be near my local Barnes and Noble earlier today so I decided to go see how their gunpla stock was. I found this single case, with gundam stuff only on this one side.
2 MG Heavyarms EW
2 MG Wing Zero EW
3 HG destroy with headstand
4 RG Destiny
A bunch of HG Deathscythe and some MG deathscythe Hell
1 HGSengoku Astray
2 HG Fenice behind the astray
The case display was all assault kingdom figures. But they only had a single Assault Kingdom Jegan for sale, like $10

>not being general dicks to each other
Many of you use tripcodes.
Your jokes have nothing to do with Gunpla and sound like something a middle schooler would find funny.
You all talk about your personal lives like close buddies.
And now you're sending each other dildos "for teh lulz XD"
"Hugbox" is an understatement.
>>11761434
I'm very interested in this nonsense.
As for everything else, why can't we must accept eachother faults and all? Sure, I have dislikes but I won't limit other people because of it.
>>11761441
>And now you're sending each other dildos "for teh lulz XD"
You know that's just one anon joking, right? There's only one person sending anything and that's Jegan being a nice guy.
>>11761439
Actually, ANT was only brought up because you all worship him so much. If you actually read the thread you would see that we didn't say anything bad about him.

okay new topic:
Do any of you guys get model burnout? I've been doing this shit for a decade and still like it, but every once in a while I need like a one or two month break before I get in the mood to build gunpla.
>>11761508
Yes. I'm just now recovering from a burnout and am getting ready to paint something again tonight.
>>11761508
I got model burnout in between body parts of an MG recently. I'd just finished building 6 HGs though, I probably should've taken a break.
>>11761508
I'm burned out bad right now, life shit and too many projects going at once, I have to finish something after this coming weekend is over
>>11761508
I'm a newfag to model kits, but I get burned out on video games pretty easily. I have Pokemon right next to me but I can't really be bothered to play it. I tend to get bursts where I play for hours on end without breaks; I didn't even consider playing through MGS2+3 until I had that feeling that I could play through in one or two play sessions.

I get that with extensive builds. If I spend too much time in a session, I generally put it off to the side for later.
Though tonight... Tonight I get to start on Shin Matsu's Hi-Mo Zaku 2.0. Stoked.
do not respond to shitters please
>>11761552
>know your place
Aww. Somebody is harboring a serious superiority complex in their real life.
>>11761573
>>11761568
you fucked up
>>11761552
>No, at least I'm not.
You'd be surprised. There are quite a few who post in both threads pretty regularly. Overall /m/ does have more snapfitters, but that's more because they have more people new to the hobby and more posters in general. And overall the skill on this board has been improving and catching up to /toy/, where the shitposting has also become far less than it was a year ago.
Stop this board war crap, it has no purpose other than stirring up shit.

Next time I go visit my grandparents I'll try and get a hold of it and record if onto the PC and try streaming it at some point, they'll probably have kept it since they never chuck anything out
>>11761560
>Shin Matsu's Hi-Mo Zaku 2.0
Mmm, excellent taste.
Do they make heat rings for the HG Burning Gundam? I haven't been able to find anything about em
>>11761568
>anon asks ANT for imgur
>ANT makes imgur

>>11761583
Are you the guy who did that cool Zaku custom for the contest? Do you have like some list of everything you did for it? Because I want to make one like it.
>>11761586
Indeed. And you know what? Maybe I'll just snapfag this one. Top coat it with over the top decals and post it all over /toy/ and demand they acknowledge ita perfection.
So what I'm getting is, I shouldn't be nice? Alright then. Christmas Gunpla is ruined for everyone!
>>11761624
No baby please ;-;
>tfw I can't afford gunpla for a while
Last gunpla for the next couple of months: HG Jesta Cannon or HG Crossbone Gundam X1
>>11761624
Shit. I was gonna ask you for a Master Grade too.
>>11761624
>Top coat it with over the top decals and post it all over /toy/
Funny, cuz the ANT's Stamen is pretty much that with some repaint and it got made the OP pic one of the few times he went over to /toy/ to post.
>>11761627
this is why you don't get invested in this kind of thing until it shows up at your door

Pretty much just doven wold arms and torso slapped onto a zaku III custom, with the barrels on most of the guns replaced with pieces of runner and a scratch built waist to make the parts fit together. There's a couple other small things but that's the general gist of it.
>>11761633
I built the X-Maoh and loved it, hope the Crossbone X-1 is just as good brokeanon.
>>11761642
Really? Shit this seems much more feasible now.
Thanks anon, I'm gonna see about making this sometime next spring or summer.
>>11761624
It's going to look sexy even if its just snapped.
>>11761635
>not asking for a box full of SD mobile suits
Pleb.
>>11761624
The guy is full of crap. I post snapfit stuff on /toy/ all the time and don't get shit on for it unless I forget a nub in a really obvious spot (And /m/ will point that out too). And plenty of people post simple topcoated straight builds pretty regularly as well with no issue.
>>11761642
Do you have a pic before/during you puttied/flatten the chest?
>tfw I always build less during the winter half of year but don't stop buying
>>11761637
And? Everyone has adifference preference. Do you like metal? Too bad, Master Jazz race. Everyone is allowed to do what they want. If they are happy with what they did, let them be happy. Criticize if you want. Who are you to dictate someone's happiness and proudness? Its all art and art is objective. Get fucked.
and no, Christmas Gunpla isn't ruined and over. No one have a stroke over it. Twas a joke.

>>11761655
Kind of, you need to mod several of the pegs (Shoulders and bicep mostly) and scratchbuild part of the waist to make it compatable and raise it up a bit to clear the megaparticle cannons, but after that its mostly just fixing seams and filling gaps.
>>11761665
Of the sleeves markings? No, I didn't bother taking pics of that since I just filed and sanded them off then primed over them with no issues. Was pretty simple.
>>11761674
He was trying to help your case if you would actually not froth and learn to read.
>>11761602
Set up like Garma
>>11761674
>Master Jazz
my man
>>11761637
>and it got made the OP pic one of the few times he went over to /toy/ to post.
That doesn't mean shit, once a pic of mine got made a OP pic and it was just two OOB zeon kits brofisting over a box.
Just that.
No panel lining, no paint, no top coat, no mods.
OP pic means shit, it's just something somebody from the general made so to keep continuity between threads.
>>11761674
He was saying that ANT has posted on /toy/ and made the OP pic there with a mostly topcoated straightbuild before with no problems. He was even complimented in that thread for the nice job he did.
There really isn't much difference between the boards other than number of posters really.
>>11761697
It's something gelgoog guy (Or whoever makes the new thread if he's not available) picks from the previous thread that he thought looked cool.
>>11761552
Meant to quote this, not this >>11761637
>>11761684
It was a matter of me bring retarded son.
How about we just post our builds and don't care about what anyone says otherwise. This isn't GBWC. So long as your not posting Red Cliff I could hardly give a damn about quality unless you ask how to improve.
It's a waste of space/breath to bitch about it. The threads won't change and 4chan won't change. Ever. Deal with it.
>>11761675
Hmm, well this will either be an exercise in futility for me or I'll step up my game. Either way I'll find out.
>>11761705
IIRC he did say he picked it because it was clean. Would fish it out of archive if heinessen wasn't down.
>>11761727
Give it a shot. I was terrified of fucking up on some of my first customs, but sheets of plastic aren't really that hard to work with. Modding is basically just glueing stuff to other stuff, filling gaps/uneven parts with putty, and then lots and lots of sanding.
>>11761749
I knew I'd someday have to use sandpaper. No time like the present.
>>11761762
Sanding is easy as fuck
>>11761762
How have you not sanded things before if you're at this stage, may I ask? It is one of those basics taught along with "don't cut too close to the part or you risk gouging".
Are you a hobby knife god at clean cuttings?
>>11761768
some sanding can be very difficult
>>11761685

lol great memeing
To the anon who wanted to see a Mega Ride Launcher on a Hazel, I just bought a Hazel Custom. Both items should come in at around the same time, Christmas-ish.
I'm calling it the Hazel Cannon.
Aaaaand I've lost my file. Searched the whole damn room and I can't find it. Guess I'll throw one in with my next batch of gunpla.
>>11761922
Might as well ask, anything particularly recommended that I can throw in from HLJ or something?
>>11761932
I just bought their three pack. Has served me fine.
>>11761932
For the stuff like files, I class them to the likes of sandpaper. eBay ones that don't look like they'll break and you should be fine. They're not for finer for so it should be okay if it isn't pristine branded.
>>11761941
>>11761949
Figured as much, just felt I'd ask. Might as well grab a new knife set while I'm there.
>>11761932
Neo Zeong.
Dendrobium.
PG Unicorn + Weapons set + LED set
Tsugumori (sp?)
>>11761965
If I wanted to murder myself financially I'd just buy a single SRW 1/144.
Why is the Mega Shiki so sexy?
>>11761975
Because BASED NAOKI.
>>11761985
MG Mega Shiki when?
>>11761374
Always brings a smile to my face when this is brought up.
Also, what happened to this thread, I come home after working ten hours, get on here to see what everybody's doing, and people are talking about dragon dildos and Char vibrators, what the fuck?
>>11761992
in a nutshell >>11761602
Random question.
I'm not the only one who has an urge to take a black edge marker/pen (what the hell are those called) to figurines on my shelf?
Like the ones you use on gunpla on panels line and stuff.
>>11762017
Only if they're not pre-lined.
>>11762017
Unless you don't care about resale/collector's value, go nuts.
Alternatively, buy an RG/MG and unleash your lining desires there.
The fuck? So uh. Requester here. I just honestly wanted an album of ANTs builds. I appreciate the cleanliness. I also mostly just wanted the stamen/nu
>>11762058
Nice ruse, faggot.I uploaded wallpaper ver of each build, if that is your thing. I did it to satisfy my autism before three of them didn't have it.
So what's the latest thing that made you go "What the fuck?" For me it's the Banshee Norn I just built. 4 beam saber handles, 0 beam saber blades. I mean I have spares, but seriously, they can't cost that much to add.
>>11762087
Honestly the whole argument thing was basically the whole spacenoid earthnoid plot of Gundam
>>11761058
Looks a lot like the Gundam section of Asheville's BNN, right down to the selection. Tell you what, those guys can't pose for shit either.
>>11762101
today's thread
>>11762101
GM Sniper II's elbows. They're not double jointed. It confuses me greatly.
>Cleaning and condensing boxes
>Keep finding stuff I forgot about
>Desk is a mess
Why am I having so much fun with this?
>>11762101
HGUC Nu's rear skirt being one molded piece much like First Grade, made more strange when the rest of the kit is pretty good for an HG.
Will sanding the top coat off cleaning remove it? I want to remove some nubs kits I had done when I was a beginner. Might paint them as well.
>>11762101
>nu ver ka is insanely well engineered
>yellow chest vents are two simple solid pieces that you have to panel line
>>11762130
I can't into your sentence but I'll just say some general things:
1. Sanding top coat will remove it
2. It's pretty easy to re apply the top coat
3. Sanded parts look top coated
>>11762124
its funny too cause the kit came out in 2012 and it feels so outdated with those shitty joints.
>>11762101
HG G-self's arm. Its arm has a full inner frame, which is fantastic, but its humerus bone/frame is at a back-bent angle to the radius/ulna. It's the armor on top that forces it into a 90-degree bend, and that can be fairly easily rectified.
It's like the suit gains flexibility/mobility as it loses more and more of its photon armor...
