Grunt Bash Group Build
It's time for a new group build, and damn simple one. All you need to do is combine a grunt design with a one off design, including named Gundams, Sazabi, Kampfer, and the like.
Due By: November 10th
As always, send it to (and post it here!): [email protected]
Gunpla/Plamo Secret Santa!
Sign ups run until December 4th. I'll try to have everyone paired up by December 6th.
Like last year, I'm going to have everyone fill out a Google form so I can collect the information easily.
Also, if you have some kits in your backlog that you are willing to part with feel free to email me a list and estimated values.

First for Zeon
>>5268056
We don't have to use our real names, right? Outside of that I'm kind of nervous about giving my address out on here.
>>5268073
das pretty gud
>>5268075
we're all gonna send you pizza m8
>>5268087
You can just give a first name unless otherwise needed. And the only two people who'll have your address are your partner and me.
>>5268048
Apparently Gunpla builders can't paint walls either.
>>5268101
lmfao
>>5268101
>>5268101
>>5268075
I sell/buy stuff in the /bst/ thread all the time, and nobody's sent me anthrax or anything yet.
I wouldn't worry about it too much
>>5268101
Sorry, I ran out partway through after using up most of my white coating your mom.
>>5268134
Doesn't mean I'm not preparing a box of well aged dragon dildos for you.
>didn't really care for FAG gourai when everyone was talking about her
>really want one now that it's too late
Why does this happen
>>5268101
Oh my God.
>unthinned paint
>brush strokes with rough brush
>no color separation
>surface not primed properly
I can never look at my room again. Fuck you.
I even had stickers (wallpaper) on them a long time ago.
Wasn't there some anon a while back who got a 00 gundam as a gift and when he opened the box it was pre-built, covered in glitter, and tied up in a lewd pose?
>>5268155
>Buy one from a convention because I figured my preorder from amazon is never going to go through.
>It goes through and ships without me noticing that night
>Now have an unopened one sitting in my closet.
Maybe a lucky anon who wants one will get paired with me.
>>5268167
show us your spoons
>>5268172
Pics plz.
>>5268237
Out at the moment.
Who else has more spoons painted than kits?
>triple gloss a spoon before
>>5268048
nice wall
ahem, I finally completed my MG Gundam X, it is lovely
>>5268267
Very nice
What did you line with? Gray Gundam Marker?
>>5268297
I used a fine point black gundam marker. I wiped any excess paint and then, I used a mechanical pencil
>>5268312
Do you go over the marker in pencil or something? I just started gunpla and have only done snap builds. I'm just now starting to do seam removal and panel lines.
>>5268320
yes, I go over the marker lines with the pencil. this is because often, when I used topcoat over parts I panel lined with the marker, the black paint of the marker "bleed", making an absolute mess
the mechanical pencil prevents the above from happening
>>5268328
Good to know. Thanks for the info and pics.
I ran out of me topcoat's flat spray, is krylon dullcote any good?
>>5268328
Good idea. Looks like a lot of people actually use gundam markers for panel lining. They've worked alright for me, but sometimes they leave an extra dark dot at where I started lining.
Is there lineart for the HMM Zoids or only for Gundam stuff?
What Gunpla do you think has the best articulation?
I think I've come across a first world problem, guys. I just finished building the Star Winning and now I'm not sure what to build next.
A word to the wise: Don't end up like me. Control your backlogs.
>>5268556
>21 kit
>ENOURMOUS BAGLOG HERE GUISE
kek
>>5268563
Well, it's not small either.
>>5268556
Build the Banshee.
I built a ZOIDS Mirage Fox.
He has a twist motor and stomps around all over my desk, very cute!
>>5268594
He comes with parts for two armor variations, I used the Shadow Fox style shoulders and the Mirage face.
The swords on his tail here can also be mounted on his back in place of the minigun. I like having both.
>>5268597
The way he is lookingn at the camera it's like he's happy. How much was this/in what scale is it?
>>5268615
Most motorized Zoids are 1/72
>>5268617
Ah, ok. Are the 1/144 alright too?
>>5268563
I just counted and I have 57 in my backlog. Need to really start on them chop chop or im gonna end up sleeping in the hallway.
Also, stupid, sexy OO Gundam
>>5268632
Pic or it didn't happen
>>5268641
Went by my spreadsheet. This is the best picture I can do because fuck actually getting them all and stacking it, too lazy for that shit.
>>5268563
I have over 100 in my backlog, but I don't build Gundams.
>>5268653
150+ only 6 of them gundams.
>tfw don't remember how many you have exactly
>tfw start to wonder if you build it all before you die
>>5268615
Mirage Fox is ZOIDS Original line. ~$20, has a motor.
Also, here is HMM Shadow Fox. ~$45 much more detailed and poseable, but no motor.
Never done a 1/144 but that seems too small.
>>5268363
I try to use the gray one for panel lining white parts but it's awful. It just smears and bleeds.
>>5268652
>all those gunplas + PGs and Dendrobium
do you even have enough space to keep them built?
>>5268621
Ye. They're more like gunpla but they come with pre-applied markings and lots of little painted details. They also come with waterslides and a nice display base.
>>5268686
That's part of the reason I kinda dont want to build em.
Have to find a place to put em in first.
>Everything needs a Revive!
>Gogg already has perfect proportions for what people want out of it.
Please leave him alone Bandai.
Really want a Big Zam but the model kits are lacking. Anyone know if this MSIA figure is worth the $150+?
>>5268556
I have nothing to build and 2 days off. So bored.
>>5268816
Toss yourself off a cliff for less faggotry.
>>5268889
Toss your neighbours for more space duh.
>>5268167
I present to you. Spoons.
>>5268971
A lot of them are metallic or clear, guess I feel they will be used more. And also because I don't mix color a lot so the cap is a good indicator of what I am getting.
>>5268556
Half of my current backlog is secretly Christmas presents for my buildbros in disguise.
My room is the topic image! firts time ever
>>5269109
How do you keep your desk and shelves so uncluttered? [spoiler]And why is there a brown patch on your wall?[/spoiler]
>>5269115
Fuck, no spoilers on /toy/.
>>5268373
sadly there aren't really official lineart for the zoids themselves that I know of. However the manuals for the HMM kits tend to have a lot of lineart of the weapons, parts, etc. just check out hobby search/1999. But I am sure those aren't the line arts you mean, you want something for color tests don't you?
The older kits did have side view and top views of the models that were drawings for the painting guides, while newer ones use pictures of a painted kit. You could try and covert those drawings into line arts with a good deal of work.
Finally there is TONS of fan made lineart I have seen, but your mileage will HEAVILY vary on those.
>>5269109
Congrats. The only time I made it the image didn't even have gunpla, it used action figures. I felt like I cheated.
>>5269115
Looks like a repair job, we had tons of patches like that to cover nasty water marks from a leak due to Sandy, or the occasional airborne TV remote.
>>5269146
>or the occasional airborne TV remote
Shit gets intense, I see.
>>5268831
Z'Gok E could use one.
>>5268556

Just do it already

Its supposed to be more for off topic threads that shouldn't be deleted, which makes sense since the best discussions never come from the board they're supposed to be on.
>>5269205
Richton-kun, you should at least apply the stickers in both sides of the respective segment.
Also is he really that hard to pose?
>>5269263
Did the horsefucking not clue you in? Everything on 4chan is NSFW anyway, I would never browse in view of others.

Yo, that maskless Gillman is actually fly as fuck tho.
>>5269449
The moon is always there.
White Ogre or F2?
>>5269560
White ogre.
Bought my first kit today, what was your first lads?
>>5269560
I like the White Ogre colors more, but I doubt I'd personally be able to pass out on a Zaku F2(000) pun.
>>5269596
>>5269604
That isn't a pun, that's the point of the name, the F2000 is literally the F2 with new stuff
>>5269208

I vote this to be the OP of next thread. All in favour?
>>5269596
my first was supposed to be the gyan since being a normie and hearing BF was good decided to check it out and immediately ejaculated, but it got lost in the mail because shitty chink amazon sellers, so i decided to watch 0079 and got the revive tiny-head-holes-in-arms and an F2, since I heard it was the best HG zaku out
>>5269596
Beat Magnum
>tfw haven't posted here in years and I'm working on something that fits the theme of the group build.
>>5269834
>Zaku with Stark Jegan's shoulder missile pods.
>>5269840
Those are the gmIII, not stark jegan.
>>5269596
My very first gunpla was the FAZZ from the 80's, it was so bad but I remember it coming with a small tube of rubber cement the size of a toothpaste sample inside the box
>>5269849
Ah, yeah. I see the GMIII box now. I didn't notice it the first time I looked and kinda geeked out at that point.
>>5269362
this dioaram is awesome, looks natural and like it was built with simple stuff
>>5269604
you could do it in a Honda S2000 scheme but the pun works less there
If I use cut pieces of acetate to do clear parts on gunpla, then the only way to color them is to use Future or a clear acrylic color, right?
>>5270044
>only way
No there are tons of ways, but those will likely give the best results.
>>5270050
I'm not happy with the translucent parts packaged. The mechanical detail on the inner frame doesn't show thru because of the thickness.
So I was thinking, to glue this acetate, do I either use that micro-sol clear, PVA glue, or is two part clear epoxy glue my best bet? I remember from the Finescale articles that aircraft modellers tend to use the first two for gluing the canopy.
>>5269851
If you use the Ballden arms kit from the Build Fighters line, and do some tweaks with modern kits, you can modernize your FAZZ kit.
Any tips on how I could go about making Barbatos look like it was fighting on Mars? I was thinking of using a dark reddish oil paint and gunk washing it with that or something.
Did I hear Future?
I broke out my bottle of Future after a couple years in dark storage. The liquid inside's all yellowed out. Looks like a writeoff.
>>5270070
Use small amounts brownish/red weathering on the knees, edges of the legs and feet.
Remember your sense of scale. It's not gonna look like it rolled around in dirt.
Wherever the contact points are for kneeling, chip/weather those.
As for the upper body just show fine amounts of Martian dust collecting in the recesses.
The Barbatos _is_ nano-laminated after all.
>>5270077
Ah right, so like light dry brushing? And what should I do for red "dust?"
>>5270106
Just throw it into the trash? Your weathering looks like garbage anyways so it'll fit right in.
>>5270109
what
>>5270106
Pigment powders. Cheapest is to pick up a cheap pack of artist pastels (the dry chalk-like kind, but not actual chalk). Scrape the stick with the back of your knife onto a piece of paper or in a small cup or something and use the powder from doing this.
You can get them in a huge variety of colors including earth tones.
You can also buy things like MiG pigments.
>>5270055
I appreciate the thought anon but that was literally decades ago, I got it when I was 12 in the early 90's
Artist pastels, got it. How would I go about applying them?
>>5270133
Grind them up on sandpaper, mix the ground pigments to the color you want, and then scoop it up with a paintbrush.
>>5270151
>Grind them up on sandpaper
Or even better, in a mortar & pestle.
>>5270133
Either a soft paint brush or makeup applicator. You may want to satin or flat coat first to give them a little something to grip to and then coat them again afterwards as they will come off easily otherwise. Look up guides on youtube if you want to see some tips and techniques for it on how armor plamo guys do it.
>>5270177
Okay, will do. Thanks!
>>5269596
Either a Wing or Deathscythe NG back when Wing showed on toonami.
Starting back up recently a Zaku J 2.0 MG.
>>5269596
I was turned off from the models I saw in the stores when Wing was airing because I thought they'd be completely white and glue like other model kits.
A few years later gota HGUC RX-78-2 Gundam, was hooked after that.
>>5268167
how do you deal with brush strokes with enamel paint? it ruins brushes or needs a ton of thinners.
>>5269215
>>trying to look 'artistic' by following the rule of thirds
follow the booster fuel tank, the unicorn takes up almost half of the image.
i don't understand why you would not make your gunpla strike such a boring pose while being suspended in the air by a base.
>>5268048
any hg barbatos fans here? i only got one yesterday so. i heard they were going to be doing a dub so is that why the manual now has english legends in it?
>>5270339
The kit looks real good, but I'm holding off on buying it since they'll probably release more Barbatos kits with added on shit as the show progresses.
>>5270358

Still waiting on the new graze kit
So single edged nippers are better? or is godhand just a meme?
>>5270470
>Is the world black? Or is it white?
Anon, when you think like this no answer will set you on the correct path.
>>5270470
Godhand is no joke. You want a Flying Guillotine Kick?

Yes sir mam
>>5270339

Finished snapping Lightning Z yesterday.Fun build, he's a pretty cool guy.
>>5270563
o nice camera. What model?
>>5270358
I'm probably gonna just get them all if they look good. Barbatos is pretty small so they can't be too expensive.
>>5270563
How is the backpack? Can I get more shots of that? I've been debating on leaving mine off thanks to the unflattering official photos.
>>5270633
It's not really a "backpack". It's 3 separate pieces since the wing parts are removable and can attach to the arms with the beam blades on the wings. imo it's badass
>>5270584
Cheers, Canon Eos 1100D
>>5270633
Like >>5270797 says, it's three separate pieces, but here are some shots. I haven't clipped it to the arms yet though.
>>5270823
It's pretty badass. Adds a cool look, without the big wings he looks a bit bland.
>>5270825
>>5270827
>>5270833
Actually it's pretty awesome on the arms, too, and you can mount the other stuff to the wing's spots.
>>5270588
for 10 bucks he's pretty great
Picked up a Taishiji Dom SD on the cheap. I kinda like it. Think I can find a Ryofu Tallgeese for cheap?
>>5271032
Only place I can find him in stock for a decent price at the moment is hobbywave.
He's overpriced as hell everywhere else I look at the moment because there hasn't been a production run in a while and he's one of the more popular of the line.
>>5270470
Yes single edged nippers are better, but require softer and sharper edges (which means fast wearing). Single cut is more uniform than double cut because of the nature of scissors. Once the pivot starts to get loose it's done, toss it out. The two edges will never meet uniformly again. Ask anyone who works in the clothing industry.
>>5271048
Good looking out. Prices aren't that bad; will bookmark it for later.
>>5271055
>all tools are subject to wear
thank you capt. obvious
>>5271032
Why are Sangokuden kits so rare? I've been looking for this one for a long time.
>>5271081
You choose a bad time to collect them. They were booming that few years it was active.
>>5271081
The show ended so there isn't as much demand for the kits anymore so bandai doesn't make them as often.
>>5271120
It may happen eventually. I've been waiting half a year for a re-print of the Zaku F2000. And we are finally getting another run of it this month.
>>5271122
I meant a year and a half, not half a year.
>>5269596
This-a-ma-gig.
>>5269605
... Do you remember what you used on the tops f those shoulders? That beautiful shiny surface is all I can focus on...
>>5269596
HG zaku II. It was amazing.
Then I got a more modern kit (rezel com) which was even better.
>>5271032
>>5271081
Do yourselves a favor and get a Shin Goka Ryuso Ryubi, it's like the SD equivalent to an MG and it's not rare yet
>>5271122
Yeah, Bandai rotates through their old catalogue every month. Even old kits from the 80s.
You could also try to search Asia-based sellers. The Sangokuden series was a big hit there and there's probably someone hoarding some excess stock somewhere.
I wish dom had better ankles, it's tough to pose him without toppling every where
>>5271307
>>5270151
>>5270176
>>5270133
Personally I always used an exacto knife to scrape off some dust. Never slice or cut though as obviously that will make way way too big of chunks, but the scraping works great. Every once in a while a tiny chunk will break off that is too big but easily ground down with the end of the knife handle.
>>5269596
My first was similar to >>5270281 Except it was both Wing and Deathscythe I recieved at the same time. I remember I was sick out of school for two days in a row, woke up from a fever induced nap to find the two kits sitting on a bed side table as a get well gift from my grandmother. Was so excited I had to put them together immediately despite still being sick. So many mistakes were made, had to take it apart later to put limbs face the right directions.
>>5269605
Dare I say... Gunpla is FREEDOM!
Waiting for this one to arrive. Is painting absolutely needed for this? I'm planning to just assemble, cement and top coat though I'm not sure about the flesh/face parts.
How do I tell if the pastels are ground up enough for use?
>>5269605
brother!
>>5271406
Freedom looks worse by the minute.
>>5271408
>tfw the face looks older
It looks great, but fumikane's original looks cute too
>>5271434
If you manage to snort them you're probably good to go.
>>5271533
cosidering it is one of those ancient kits from the 90s and it is supposedly the first kit he put together, I must say as a kid he was not afraid to at least TRY to do crazy over the top paint jobs. And honestly while overall hideous, there are some actual nice elements here and there. like the gold on the wings looks decent enough.
>>5271408
Yes and no. Color sepwration is like hg kits. If you don't paint then you will be missing a few color details but it will look okay dependibg on your ocd. You will probably really want to apply the waterslides though.
>>5268048
is OP pic some kind of tiny scale diorama with little 3d printed robots? why are there painted boxes on the shelves?
>>5270498
This blog is pretty good for looking at old stuff. It's in moon, though.
http://d.hatena.ne.jp/nagano07/20110130/1296402464
>>5269596
Pic related. Not sure if it counts since it's not Gundam, but it was getting into these Rockman kits as a kid that helped me stumble upon Gundam later on as a teen.
>>5271630
I see, if it's just adding some white paint I can do that much and yeah I'll apply the decals.
I wonder about the flesh and face plates if they need to be coated.
>>5271682
Those parts are molded in color and the eyes are pre-done for you.
>>5271682
To add to >>5271694 they give you waterslide decals for the eyes in case you want to repaint, but I guess you already knew this.
On a related note, is it possible to get a good flesh tone with spray cans? Looking at some reviews of Stylet I can see a lot of unsightly seams in the flesh parts and I was thinking of painting them (already planning on painting on armor details/white trims, at least).
>>5271653
Unlikely to be diorama, I think, but yeah I wonder about the painted boxes too.
What, you guys don't have painted boxes on your shelves? I thought everyone did that.
Growing up, all my parent's friends had painted boxes on shelves in their homes, and there were stores all over town that sold painted boxes for shelving.
>>5268855
of course not, no msia is worth shit.
>>5271735
If you could find a right color. Personally for mine I'm airbrushing and am using tamiya flesh mixed with Tamiya flat white. I won't be at the painting stage for a while though.
>>5271785
>no msia is worth shit.
ill fukn rek u fgt
HG Z'gok is going for $8.50 + FS on Amazon if anyone wanted it
>>5271830
msia big zam is good
msia in general are shit with terrible articulation
Am I messing up or are dark colors like blue and grey hard to pre-shade? I go grey primer>black pre-shading>base color (in this case blue) and the blue shows no sign of the pre-shading. I'm guessing it's better to just use highlights in this case?

You're right they should just quit making all RGs and HGs and just make MGs.
>>5272185
NOW you're getting it! Congrats anon! 1/144s are for cowards anyways. You're not a coward, right anon?
>>5272188
>MG's
Nigga Bandai should only be making perfect grades, why settle for anything less?
>>5272202
>settling for 1/60 scale
>not going for 1/1 scale
All y'all niggas cowards.
>>5272202
Why settle for Perfect Grades when you can grab the cheaper and better Mega Size
>>5272202
>mass produced shit
We all know 1:1 statues are the only way to go

>implying I'm not posting from the secret mobile suit development base right now
>>5272217
Make sure they make the Gelgoog the official suit. You do that and I'll consider us even.
>>5272167
Obviously you should buy both rg and hg. A mg to be their leader and scratch build a PG statue to symbolise the great z'gok team.

Sorry friend, first time posting on the gunpla threads
>>5272025
Yup. Might want to Google it, since I its hard to put it into words.
>>5272244
Clean those nubs and post more pics
>>5272025
Base color is strong so the shading won't be seen. Do the thing you said with the base color + ?% white airbrushed where the shading should be.

the detail looks so nice on the thunderbolt kits
>>5272274
it's pretty amazing all the little details they manage to cram into a 1/144 to be honest
Need small bottles of black, white, and silver for detail painting. Guessing acrylic is best for working on pretty much anything? What brand has a metallic silver that's good for things like knives?
>>5272317
I do acrylic base coats with enamel paints for panel lining, washing/reverse, and small details. It really depends though on what plan you have for your build
Alright, this is probably gonna be an unpopular as fuck opinion, but I kiiinda hate the look of the Hyaku Shiki 2.0. It's all legs, a Katoki nightmare cast in plastic. I hate the headsculpt too, it looks all squashed and weird. I also like the look of gold chrome way more than the gold coating they did on the 2.0.
Sooo....I'm thinking to go for the old MG HS. Do any of you own it, and how much pain am I in for? Is it a decent kit, or is it just gonna be awful?
>>5272431
The old MG has terrible articulation.
>>5272438
Well, see, that's what I thought too, but this doesn't look all THAT bad to me. It can even kneel, according to dalong. What exactly is so terrible about the articulation in your opinion?
>>5272447
shut your face and get the 2.0
