>Why won't anyone answer my question?
Try being specific, especially about your materials and process. Post pictures whenever possible; even if the kit/part looks bad, you are more likely to get help posting pictures.

Old Thread: >>13563629
Anyone able to draw a face to a 1/144 figure?
i just put two dark blots for eyes. I tried to paint his face but it's hard
alright /gunpla/
would really like to know your thoughts

>>13570475
1/144 figure is cockpit's one, Saitama is certainly a 1/100.Just give it a third blob for mouth and call it a day.
>>13570494

As i said. 1/144. I just might have to pencil this in to give it a good line

Thanks family. I'll try making some buildings. I'd like to do something like the Dakar battle in Gundam Unicorn, but watching it, the buildings have a pretty messed up sense of scale (or the windows are absolutely huge).

People still find 4chan hard to use a month away from 2016?
so who's getting that new Dragon Momoko Destiny MG, based on the Metal Build?
I was gonna buy the reissue bandai is supposed to announce soon, but that shit will surely cost a gorillion dollars

I would pre-order the damn thing in a heartbeat if I knew where to do so.

4chan? Simple. I don't think it's anything horrible, but it could be better (and, ofc, I have my preferences on how some things should be laid out).
>>13571315
There's a lot of good extensions for 4chan so I think it's fine, haven't used native for a long time so I'm not quite sure what it feels like to new people.

>>13571812
Nah, the parts separation is very minimal, so there are not many parts you get e.g leg is one whole piece, arm is just two pieces. So unless you want to put a whole leg on your GM, it's not worth it.
>>13571833
Ignore him.
>>13570476
I sat through two minutes before the kit the "review" is ostensibly about was mentioned
By that alone it's a bad review
>>13570476
you are shit
>>13571752
Uh, what? Use them as stands?
After seeing beamknight's sweet hyaku shiki/akatsuki pics I've decided to make that my next 1/100 purchase. I'm kind of stuck though, despite the regular shiki color being terrible i really like the proportions over the 2.0 (which is a bit skinny at the waist, no?), so what do you fags think? reg shiki or 2.0? only 10 dollar difference. I would throw akatsuki into this query too but the only 1/100 I've found is $115.
>>13572292
>akatsuki into this query too but the only 1/100 I've found is $115
maybe you are talking about bandai's chromed akatasuki kit? that one is really expensive, but be aware mine is the version released by Dragon Momoko, which is NOT plated, it only comes gold painted (as if you used a tamiya gold spray can over the pieces) and should be around 40 bucks or so
>>13570476
I dunno why u care so much what people are gonna say since you said that you're just doing it for yourself. You keep posting this in every thread in last few days, makes me think you're just whoring for attention rather than wanting constructive criticism. Is that you snapfit?
>>13572302
I guess I haven't been able to find that one on amazon, only one they have in 1/100 is the oowashi. I would drop $40 on the one you have in a second if I could find it. The shiki 2.0 is $51, I don't think that's really a bad price (got prime for free shipping).
>>13572302
That one in your picture is 1/100 right?
>>13572302
Damn dude does that beam saber effect come with the model
>>13572327
there's DM's official site if you are interested:
https://www.dragonmomoko.com/store/p23/ORB-01_Akatsuki_MG_1%2F100_With_Oowashi_%26_Shiranui_backpacks.html
>>13572327
are you a first time builder? you just missed the best deal for a hyaku shiki 2.0 by a week
$51 is not bad though
>>13572332
yes, it is a 1/100 model, they basically recycled the inner frame of their MG Strike and somehow adjusted plenty of the parts of the 1/100 Akatsuki all over it
>>13572333
yes, it comes with 4 very large beam effects, they are oversized versions of Kotobukiya's beam sabers of the weapon units
>>13572337
Not first time but not very experienced with this, only built like 6 MGs so far. How much was the 2.0 last week?
>>13572334
Comes out to $67 with shipping through the DM website.
>>13572302
I've been meaning to ask, I've always been a fan of the Akatsuki and might consider trying to pick up this kit for a decent price. Does it come with a pilot figure similar to the Strike ver. RM?
>>13572359
DM website update when?
They don't even have the Geminass on there or the new Destiny
>>13572408
Aw shucks, well that's alright. I can just use one of the spare pilot pieces for the Strike RM to install it I guess. Judging by the pics it looks like the cockpit hatch is still able to be opened/closed. Correct me if I'm wrong though.
>>13570505
>Ayy lmao saitama
>>13571901
>Appreciation I deserve
What appreciation? You're a sub-par builder with nothing of note. All you do is straight build, shitpost, and repeat to annoy, you don't panel line, you don't offer good advice, you aren't constructive in your posting, you don't even have any variety to your builds and your photography is shitty. What the fuck do we have to appreciate about you? Enlighten me.
>>13572539
stop being an insensitive racist
shitposters have rights too
He's an attention whore, for fuck's sake stop giving him attention. You make think you're presenting him with a plate covered in shit, but he's more than happy to shove his face into it and eat it all just so that you pay attention to him.

>>13572672
What are polycaps made of?
>>13572692
Actually while I'm at it, why doesn't Bandai use ABS joints on 1/144? MGs still use it so ABS must be good right?
>>13572692
>polycaps
Polyethelyne, or PE. (It's why the runner for the polycaps says PE instead of PS)
>>13572715
>why doesn't Bandai use ABS joints on 1/144?
They do sometimes. Probably depends on tolerances, kit by kit basis, etc. The Beargguy F (Family) kit has some ABS joints, for example.
>>13570468
I wish upon wish that there was a modern FAG kit for 1/144. The Thunderbolt one was just too different from the original for my taste.

A Reddit reminder of their shit
Fellow Gogg owners, please help. How high on the shoulder armor should the rod be placed? The little "stump" within the shoulder armor that allows you to attach the hand alone in the last picture makes putting the whole arm on a pain. If I slide the rod all the way up the shoulder armor then it feels like I am forcing the piece, and after some playing around with it the arm tends to pop apart. Yet when I don't slide the arm all the way up, it makes the arm feel loose. I know there should be one position that is correct to get a full range of motion but still stay on correctly. Suggestions or tips from others with the model?
>clip holding part fell off stick
>attempt to put back on to stick
>stick breaks and flings object into fucking narnia
I mean I can fit it into the wing again (its an HG zeta) but now it'll look sorta shitty. Wonderful, this shit only happens when you try to do something for someone else.
>>13572824

whats yalls opinion on build fighters?
>>13573059
It produced a lot of kits I like, even from Try so it's all good for me
>>13573059
Good show, spawned a lot of popularity for Gundam, also lead to the current state of /m/. So half love half hate.
>>13573065
>GBF led to the current state of /m/
That's not how you spell g-reco
>>13573059
GBF was good, Try was shit, and the only kit I bought was the MG Fenice rebornwhateveritscalled, might get the Build MK2 MG in time.
>>13573073
G-Reco is part of it, but the shitposting between the /a/ plants who wanted to stir shit and cause fanbase wars was the other part of it. We still have G-Reco shitters because /m/ doesn't know how to ignore shitters and because the Janitor doesn't do shit here anymore.
>>13573059
S1 is 10/10
S2 is -100/10 but chucked out a bunch of interesting models
>>13573059
Great as heck and now that I finished it just yesterday I wanna make a bunch of cool kitbashestoo bad no dollar for then yet
>>13573073
GBF threads got some dogged trolls following them, but generally people were enjoying the show too much to pay it much heed (aside from the stretches of Build-Knucklerama). When Try and G-Reco aired at the same time, shitposting intensified - Try got ripped to pieces, but G-Reco threads generally were pretty chill, almost hugboxy.
Basically, trolls hate getting shut down, so they just tried harder until it worked. And without enough of a widespread enjoyment of the show to drown it out again, it's been that much easier to be effective. So now it's IBO that's getting pilloried, AND they're still beating the drum on G-Reco to make up lost ground.
( Not that both shows are undeserving of it, mind, but it sure seems like some people got butthurt they were ignored before and have just been nursing that grudge ever since. )
What are some of the worst gunpla reviews you guys have seen? Be it video or picture gallery style reviews?
>nothing but posing shots
>doesn't cover important stuff such as articulation, parts/color seperation or size
>blogshit
>irrelevant personality shit
>stop motion videos that isn't actually a review but someone trying to show off their animating skills, usually with cheesy sound effects and shitty storyboarding.
The worst I've seen was those youtube reviews with one guy talking about the kit and another voice in the background agreeing with him or making statements proving he/she knows nothing about the hobby. Like why are they involved at all?
>>13573059

TRY was complete shit

For anyone that has a gundam x maoh, what do the reflector panels look like without the stickers? is it textured?
>>13573141
how do you get the matte finish look like in the pic
>>13573136
prime92. I don't need to explain why.
zakuaurelies is ok, but lately, I've been getting so fucking annoyed that he still publicly speaks like he's in 9th grade. Every other word is "um" or "uh", and just the way he tends to speak is just ech.
Jabman has a shitty camera, kokujin is infrequent and sometimes his songs he uses are just too distracting and awful for the reviews. kakarot's voice is grating and he takes too long to show stuff.
Robert is fucking dead.
There are no heroes left in man.
>>13573151
flat topcoat
>>13573142
the characters are probably among the worse things ever in a show. They make Reiji, who pretty much existed to eat and fight in the original series, seem complex
>>13573145
they are textured. Lots and lots of little rigid bumps where the sticker is meant to go. You're supposed to press down with a q-tip/cotton swab to let the sticker sink into the gaps and create the reflector look. It looks awesome, so long as you do it correctly.
Would it look horrible if I painted the pink detail lines on the Barbatos HG with a gundam marker?
>>13573059
Really fun twists on suits, good kits
who cares as for the rest of the show, its animu nonsense anyway
>>13573142
Lower budget, plot less than stellar, and it being just an obvious cash grab or ad spacing to push more jap crack.
S1 is no miracle of the universe but atleast it was a solid 8/10 shounen
>>13573160
should i just not watch it?
i got one of the plamo from try that's why im intrested.
>>13573136
There was this MG Hyakushiki 2.0 review on a chinese gunpla site where the reviewer thought he was so fucking smart, he put green paste all over the poor kit because "these parts are most likely not going to be reused, I marked all of them for you with GN particle semen, I am so helpful amrite"
>>13573170
give it a try, but I couldn't get past episode 6 or 7, it was horrible
at least the original build burning was a great design
>>13573170
you could watch it andmake up your own mind
>>13573161
This is from gundam x. Is it the same like this?
>>13573142
All the reasons.
There are three main characters which means that there is no real main character. In terms of their potential to be compelling, it goes Fumina>Yuuma>Sekai, but in terms of the focus they get in battles and their importance to the team, it goes in reverse. Three-on-three battles also leaves little time for enemy introduction, it's usually one "tough" guy and two scrubs, and the fights also suffer because they're following too many actors.
The supporting cast is also an issue. For starters, the early "rivals" of the show are way more compelling and interesting than the main characters. Even the late-game ones are for the most part. But, more importantly, the show is basically monster of the week the whole way through. BF set up Fellini, Mao, Nils, Aila, and others really early on; TRY would've introduced Aila like two episodes before the fight with her, tops. Only team Celestial Try-hard and Mao MK. II are properly introduced and developed as sort-of rivals.
>>13573182
yep!
>>13573183
zeektits and Mao-II are the only good part of that show really
>>13573176
God I remember all the hype this got when Build Burning was revealed, then the Gunpla came out and people were amazed.
>>13573190
Don't forget the Straight Builder who really looked like he was meant to be the lead MC.
>>13573190
I really really liked Fumina's sports bra and bike shorts getup.
>no one liked Try
Ok I know it was a forgettable show, but did you guys really think it was going to be the deconstruction of a shounen gundam anime?
>>13573192
it is a realy nice kit despite being so simple
>>13573199
the deal here is how underwhelming it was compared to GBF
gona get a zaku Like gundam
any recommendations?
>>13573190
Yeah, I loved the Tryon 3 segment in particular
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=twJTHpZnTSI
It's the kind of silly fanservice the BF series excels at, and there wasn't as much of it in Try it seemed. I really disliked team celestial, not into any of those suits or characters.
Sleggar was also top tier, his random bug and excellent kit choices were fun.
>>13573199
No. I expected Build Fighters Season 2; instead, I got Naruto.
>>13573197
>>13573190
Simon, Minato, and Gyanko were great. Junya was a great late-game reveal. Then there was Lucas. Fucking Lucas. He had the potential to be the real big-bad of the series, but no, Alan's shitty relatives had to keep their spot.
>>13573199
No. The moment the MC turned out to be a Reiji retread a lot of people got nervous about where this was headed. Then when the PVs came out and showed him with the photo Domon-style there was a little more optimism, and rampant speculation that he was Reiji's son through some time dilation.
>>13573215
>he had the potential to be the real big-bad of the series
I have to ask, genuinely, are you a big fan of crossbone? Because I did not get the feeling he would be much more than a mid-boss at best
>>13573208
Grab the Ruckess
>>13573208
try the zaku
>>13573217
ay yeah, the whole crossbone thing was also completely stupid
>>13573199
The biggest thing that bothers me is that the series is a LOT of wasted potential. There's a good selection of units and characters. The plot is one short-term goal after another with a fair share of "what do we do next?" thrown in between.
Using the same characters and units, but with a setup similar to GBF would have made things so much better: Introduce rivals and challengers early. **Have an long-term goal to follow through the series** Show people actually building gunpla.
>>13573217
The crossbone is completely irrelevant.
The guy pulled of Aila's stunt of beating an experienced pilot with a mook suit. He doesn't even have her random plavsky magic vision. Furthermore, they called him the Western champ and built him up in a way that was similar to Julian in the first season. Besides, it's not like BF didn't build people up only to Worf them later.

>once again, BF1 was suprisingly good for what it is, TRY looked like shit in comparison, despite both of them are of the same genere and topic.
>>13573199
I was writing up a response as to why its bad but I broke 2k words, but basically, characters are generic and lack any sort of motivation outside of yuuma and sort of minato, the mobile suits are all overly customized shits, most of which being barely recognizable from the suits they were based on, there's stupid concepts like assimilation that has no purpose other then to give the already overpowered main character an even easier way to win, everyone loves the main character that never has to work for his wins to the point where he's got three girls lusting after his dick, there's a ridiculous amount of stock footage involved, the 3v3 format makes no sense, any amount of tactics on the opponents end doesn't matter because again the main character is overpowered to shit because of a suit he doesn't even build or know the history of, and most of all when we got season one which was this great tribute to gundam and gunpla we are then handed this hot mess of garbage where the main character doesn't even know what gundam is in a universe where it's the most popular fucking thing around and is rewarded for being a spammy, annoying retard because he supposedly knows martial arts.
But even then he doesn't because he just spams special moves and we never even see him doing much of anything outside of practicing straight punches in a scene in one episode.

She could have been an interesting companion character, but she was wasted on her team.

here's a much clearer shot of the Freedom. Planning to paint it now that there's an MG 2.0 looming.
>>13573199
I think the thing that upset me the most in Try was the lack of different gunpla battle game modes. Considering it was a 3v3 tournament you'd think there'd be at least one CTF episode
>>13573142
The show was pretty meh but I think the designs are better in Try

They're more.... distinct. It's a weird complaint, but I didn't care as for them as much because they felt like Gunpla. I just could never see most of the non-SD suits in try being part of another Gundam franchise. Every other custom felt like a viable alternative version of their original suit. Maybe not all of their gimmicks, looking at you plavsky gates, but the general designs would feel at home in their source material.
>>13573503
>>13573465
A horde/challenge mode could have also been interesting. What better way to show off teamwork and mobile-suit design than to have teams go up against a fuckload of enemies? Some kind of marriage of the battle royale and Mock fight from BF could've been awesome.
>>13573521
It's too bad.
While S1 is not groundbreaking it was nice and fun to watch.
Try just gave the burning more power as the plot demands. At least build knuckle has limits.
>lol we spirit animal destroying earth
Well at least (most of) the kits are nice.
>>13573509
>but I didn't care as for them as much because they felt like Gunpla.
That's because Naoki designed a bunch of them.
>>13573550

But....GENKAI NANTE NAI!

There was that old awful fucker... xbawks or something.
I'd take shitposter over him.
>>13573492
I never found her annoying, because like most trips here she is fine
>>13573550
>lol we spirit animal
>>13573572
the only godawful trips that are clawshrimpy tier are blackkek and snapfitkek. they need to getter the fuck out with their shit opinions on gundam.
>>13573572
Put your trip back on shitposter.
>>13573572
I honestly dislike every tripfag on /m/ except for richigo, falldog and beamknight. Everyone else is either an argumentative asshole, shitposter, elitist prick or meme-master extraordinaire.

>>13573691
>Resistance X-Wing Fighter
Been meaning to grab one because I like its blue accents better than the regular X-Wing's red, and because it's cheaper than the regular one on Amazon. Is it just a reprint with different decals, or does it differ from the regular one in other ways?
>>13573691
>Petite Guy

>Strike Noir
Very very poorly.
>>13573711
Yeah, it's an entirely new mold and I was so excited to put it together that it's already done and sitting on my desk. The fighter is an entirely new redesign for Star Wars: TFA that's very different from the regular X-Wing.
>>13573716
Not Pictured: Perfect Grade Strike Rouge w/ Skygrasper. The Skygrasper really sold me on that kit because its like having two kits in one.
>>13573587
ANT was a cool guy, he translated and his gunpla were well made. So is Nozaku, who is currently doing Johnny Ridden manga plus sone other things.
>>13573744
Too bad ANT's dead. Again.
He popped in and made a thread like a couple of weeks ago but didn't say much.

Yo does the HG Age 1 Full Gransa come with the beam rifle/shield from the HG Age 1?
>>13573824
I don't see it on Dalong
Welp, looks like I know what I'm ordering for Christmas.
>>13573824
Yup, the rifle and shield are basically mounted on the runner in such a way that jewdai can't cut them off easily
>>13573847
>>13573847
How is it even holding that mace?
>>13573852
It's probably molded into the hand.
>>13573850
I can see the shield pieces, but not the rifle.
>>13573862
All the rifle pieces are on runner C, if they're the same on both kits then you're fine.
>>13573171
What the fuck
>>13572285
Use the top part of the stand into the base.
>>13571833
>please stop replying to yourself
>>13573918
That's genius! I should try that with my action bases next time!
>>13573923
When I get my G-Serfu and the space pack I will display it like this!
>>13573925
i wish i was a newtype so i could UNDASTANDINGU why youre such a shitposter
>>13573918
>saving pictures on your desktop
Holy fuck you're even dumber than I thought
>>13573925
Nice! So you decided to go for the whole G-Reconguista collection? It will definitely be a great display piece when completed.
>>13573735
>new design
Wasn't it just based on the old concept art for the X-Wings?
>>13573929
yeah it will look great in the trash
>>13571061
What a shitshow all this samefagging and false flagging has caused.
>>13573925
At least you're sticking to G Reco. There wasn't much good there to be ruined by you.
>>13573930
yeah, it was based on McQuarrie's concept art for A New Hope but the wings open differently; the bottom two wings are in front of the top two.
>>13571780
How about you learn how to write before you fight, Grammar-kun?
>>13573918
What?? What are you saying you "discovered"?
>>13573953
He finally figured out how to use a stand the right way. Obviously it's a major accomplishment for anyone mentally handicapped
>>13573958
holy shit
I used to think shitposter was having a laugh, but now I know he's genuinely retarded.Those G-Reco kits don't deserve to be tortured like that.
>>13573929
Yes but I'm going to need a lot of room. That one desk I took all the pictures on is so cluttered right now.
>>13573966
I just wish he would attempt to clean those nubs
>>13573974
One of these suits is not like the others, one of these suits does not belong
>>13573974
Invest in a display stand like a Detolf. A clean looking glass display with plenty of vertical space and the protection from dust is a worthy investment for any modeler.
Saw a Beargguy in person today. Jesus, it's huge.
This is my WIP
>>13574085
well thats a bear for youwere you in san fransisco by any chance?

Finally. Been waiting for it.
Do we have a consensus on the 1/100 Barbatos?
>>13574288
it actually has articulated fingers just fyi
>>13574299
No mace/10.
Other than that it has a more accurate/detailed frame than the hg and better part separation, but like the hg still needs a bunch of paint.
I'm going to skip it and wait for the graze coming in 2 weeks.
>>13574226
does it works with 3M sand sponge?
>>13574311
Thanks. The Graze does look more appealing simply because it's much more well rounded as a whole. Not a huge fan of the shade of blue in regular light though.
>>13574299
cool kit, great base for a true ground up customu with that simple frame designsubpar mech design tho
>>13574313
It works
>>13574288
Most likely to coincide with the Revive. Been that way since they started the sub-line.

I'm actually surprised that there's no reprint of any of the Thunderbolt HGs considering that the anime streams on Christmas
I reused leftover decals from RG kits for this kit.
Parts for a custom are in the mail system

Damn it HLJ. Is this how you hook people to buy from you with your private warehouse, inaccurate restock dates, and expensive shipping for single items forcing you to buy in bulk for lower pricing?
I want off this buyfag ride.

I know right! It's like they just copied the G-Self Assault Pack and painted it grey. It's hard to see it as anything but unoriginal.
