OP here, pic related is an ongoing process to improve my 1/16 M4 Sherman. New turret is assembled and installed, I did away with the airsoft function. Elevation and traverse works now. Next thing I need to do now is to replace the hull MG and caliber .50 as they look pretty bad. Also need to replace the vision port glass.
Should I even bother weathering the hull?

I did some oils, even if I wouldn't recommend that technique in such rough surfaces, and also tried to dirty the surface with them. Like dirty rain and dusty air, but ended too red and noticeable so I'm not too sure if I achieved what I wanted. I'll do the washes and then think if I should make it more dark or try to remove it (a bit difficult now). Or maybe some anon can give me an idea, what I'm trying to do is an early autumn in the country side, so some fighting in towns but mostly in the open fields and forests. I found to do some wet effects and rain marks, also mud for the tracks but not too much I think.

I use them and are really good. I must say that my favorite are tamiya acrylics, but for "new" colors or the ones that aren't in their range I use amig. Perfect to airbrush without thinner if you want, but when brushed I had mixed results. I don't think they are like normal Vallejo, more similar if you want a comparison to the air range I guess. And for the price they are the cheapest here, 2,30€, compared to tamiya (2,8-3,6€), and the others so I would highly recommend them
>>5930903
I wouldn't bother to make complex weathering. I would do a filter, pin washes and some dot oil. Maybe some dusting in the flat surfaces and if you want a bit of rust and scratches. But if you are going to use it the dust and shit will come naturally, also driving it around would destroy fake mud and other weathering

I think the figma Touhou girls might fit also since they are technically girls with magic powers.

Personally I want an Akazukin Chacha line. Been seeing it included on Bandai's online questionaire for quite sometime now, hopefully they make one.

Upcoming figma magical girl about to be released is MKR's Hikaru Shidou.

Forgot to mention figma Dark/Black Magician Girl(her name fits the bill!) to be also released soon.

Getter 1? T-Rex x Sentinel

Getter Dragon? Soul of Chogokin.

Shin Getter? Aoshima.

>>5921307
Thanks for the recommendations, i'll check them out.

>Shin Getter? Aoshima.
I hadn't heard of Aoshima before, what style/size figures do they do?

They did a lot of stuff around the OVA era, so Getter 1, Shin, Neo and New.

Personally, I think their other molds look a bit aged, but Shin is still really incredible for being 10 years old at this point.

I still think it looks better than the SRC, even if the articulation suffers a bit. It also weighs about a solid pound.

So boys, what's everyone doing with their acid rain stuff? Any cool poses, dios, desk displays, or carpet wars happening?

I was just aboit to post this. Good thing you beat me to it as I didn't have the OP saved.

Got the Agurts Infantry re-stock fr TheToySource. It has better paint apps than the original release.

This might sound weird but a dab of dish soap, then more as needed, and after working the joint it should stop. I've done this twice, once with d-arts megaman and some other figure, the squeaking went away and the joint remained tight.

>>5961564
Yeah, I went with Shock Oil. Apparently it's a lubricant that won't damage the plastic. You can find it in stores that sell remote control stuff like RC Cars etc. I'm currently using something that has a viscosity of 300.

Also, you don't want to apply a lot of it. Its the opposite of tightening joints. You'll want to, for instance, dip a toothpick in, then wipe it off, and then apply the toothpick to the creaky joint.

>>5961564
Hey Webs, yeh, either works, but the dish soap is far more accessible and there's more room for error.

... how am I a faggot for asking where to buy a SW toy on the /toy/ section?

>Anyone know any 1/12 scale Dante figures?
Fixed that for you.
That Revoltech is smaller than 5"

>>5960554
I heard. Does anyone know a good one?

>>5960699
The Revo is your best bet.
There was a Neca one recently but the general opinions weren't positive about it.

There is no 'good' one, just a couple of 'This will have to do ones'

>>5960039
I still think making them pre-existing female Decepticons like Lyzack or Esmeral would have been a better idea.

>>5960039
Why not faglord. Do your job or dont do it at all you disgusting fat pedo! Dont passively aggressively shitpost yourself in the OP.

Maybe, but let's just appreciate the lewdness.

BBTS

>>5959211
CLICK THE LINK IN THE DESCRIPTION BELOOOOOOWWWWW

>>5959211

Actually BBTS is a really good place to buy from. They've been very helpful whenever I'd had an issue.

>>5959065

Superglue might work, just make sure to use it sparingly and let it cure overnight. Use a toothpick to spread it evenly on the sides that needs to stick together, don't just squeeze it onto the actual piece.

>>5959073
Alright I'll have to try that. Off to the corner store I go.

I want more megaten merch.
there's barely anything and even those are just prize figures.

>>5958919
figma? Really? I'd rather have a fully transformable and accurate (DX) SOC or something.

Anyway:
Ataru Moroboshi
Dr. Watson
Pr. Moriarty
Smiley & Todd
BlackSword Zero
Dominique Royal
Maka Albarn
Nadia La Arwall
Noa Izumi
Harlock (SSX ver.)
Ryou Saeba
Kaori Makimura

The ones I really want should have already happened or are villains so they won't happen... so I'm shocked we never got Mako & Palutena, but Medusa & Cia would look great

>>5958975

Here is everything as it was piled in the Living room

>>5958301
looks like you hit a lot of goodwill stores and did a lot of dumpster diving and here I though you put trash in the garbage not take it back out.

>>5958303
You're not supposed to pile trash in the living room.
