***READ THE GUIDE***

For those new to gunpla/plamo or even just new to this thread; please read the guide. Please read it before asking questions as there is a chance it has already been answered there.
For those unfamiliar, "plamo" is a shortened form of "plastic model". If it's made of plastic, someone can probably help you here.
If you're new, you're gonna fuck up. Don't worry! If you're expereinced, don't make the new people worry!
>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.

So if I want to handpaint acrylic over spray painted parts do I need to flat coat the part first? Seems like water is not taking off the acrylic completely after it's on the surface if I don't flat coat it. Is this correct?

You get $10 in points when you sign up with >>13514552
Then you get a $5 coupon from confirming your email. Both need to be applied before payment during checkout.

It's not difficult

How do you guys cut parts on a model for customization? What tool do you use? I'm starting a Gallus customization and need to cut away some of the ankle. I'd like to order a tool today.

Also, an anon in the old thread asked if I had any more pictures of my GP-01Fb. I'll put a few here. There are some areas I really fucked up on the model that are super obvious in the big pics.

One more. This is the only time I ever reposed this model because it's so finicky and prone to falling apart, plus my hamhands lead to scratching up the paint.

>plus my hamhands lead to scratching up the paint

Protective top coat not protective enough?
>>
>>13514961
Evidently not. I do two coats of Flat Cleat Acryl because any more starts to look fuzzy or dusty. Most of the scrapes I produce are from the model's parts contacting each other. My next project I'm going to do some standing before I build it but I'm always worried I'll just fuck something up even worse.

Which is exactly why it's only $10 for referring a friend now. Not $20. I managed to snag a free Guncannon last time, Jigen Hao Knuckles, MS Sword parts, Hi-Mock, Mock Weapons, Amazing Weapons, and a MegaMan X figure (the Ver. KE) all for a grand total of like $45. Abused the fuck out of that promotion.

hey guys i don't know if you know this but were less than 10 master grades away from the 200th mg ever made. mg gundam origins ver & v2 are 190 and 191 respectively(not counting expansion packs ie. unicorn hd color , exia ignition etc).

so what do you guys think would become the 200th mg. i speculate another tomino ms or maybe a noval ms design that tomino likes.

Fried-kun, do you have any other kits at your other house?

>>13515913
The Zaku 1 desperately needs a 2.0, but I get the feeling older Gundams such as the Alex and the GPs would get a 2.0 before it. I'd love a Zaku 1 2.0 sooner rather than later tho.

Also leading back to the topic that started this discussion, I wouldn't be surprised if the G-Self is number 200.

It's the lead Gundam of Tomino's probably last Gundam series and regardless of how people feel about it good or bad they are likely to give it to old Kill em all for starting the series and his services over the years.

oh no, that's white primer. Was originally going to go with Citadel Black but then I figured that it would be a bitch to bring the white back on the arms and legs. I should have also mentioned that it's a WIP. far from finished.
>>
>>13516634
No reason not to use different coloured primers. The whole shebang doesn't have to be uniform. You can white primer the white parts and black primer the dark parts and grey primer the light coloured parts.

>>13516633
1) >tfw no airbrush
2) I'm still debating whether or not I want to apply shaders after I am done getting all the base colors down on the suit. Typically I don't consider adding dirt/shade/weathering effects till after I am finished with my piece. That being said I've only ever done 2 other projects similar to painting gunpla 40k, and few things back in high school for an art class which is why I am hesitant to go balls deep on my first gunpla. Especially when it's one of my favorite suits.
>>
>>13516651
>first kit
I'd recommend getting a few kits under your belt first then. Regular GMs make for great painting fodder.

Amazon was selling GMs for 7 bucks a pop a while back.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00030EU4E/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=

Right now though they're 8 buckarinos a pop with free shipping via Amazon Prime. If you can't afford at least 5 of them to get the free shipping for non-Amazon Prime doodettes, then maybe you should lay off the hobby for a bit until you acquire more currency,

I want to make a grunt custom.

What kit would serve a good base?

Jesta? GM? Jegan?
>>
>>13514552
Does this expire?
>>
>>13516724
after the 30th you'll only get $10. other than that it doesn't expire
>>
>>13516702

Jesta isn't a grunt unit, it's like Special Forces. Jegan and GM work pretty well. I recommend the GM 2 or 3.

Only the thin grey one. The rest are for painting and covering up marks. They could technically be used for lining, but I found it to be harder and messier to make something that looked good.

3.0 is based off the 1:1 statue, origins is based off the redesigned RX-78-02 from the Origins manga.

Yes.

>>13517892
Besides different surface details and proportions, the Origin has more integrated weapons like a mini-gatling, multi-launcher, and wrist vulcans. The kit comes with firing effect parts for this. It also comes with an alternative cannon backpack and two rifles.

I just post pics online and build with some friends.

The only gunpla groups I've ever really seen are team carbon and thosegundamguys.

Team Carbon seems to take themselves way too seriously, and thosegundamguys are notorious dicks. They run a competition that they judge and themselves compete in, shit talk people, also take themselves too seriously.

Really can't imagine being in one of those.

I'm pretty sure the guy who runs a local model shop is part of a build group that hangs out in the back of his store. They seem like what an ideal group would be like. They keep to themselves and just enjoy shit. They make some pretty great stuff that gets put on display in the shop.

So I started building my super fumina last night, and since nobody here seems to have actually gotten it to be able to speak from experiance with it, here are some things about the kit so far.

>With the eyelashes done, the face doesn't look as horrific in person as it does in pictures, but its still not very good.
>Engineering and the build have been very interesting so far, very unlike a lot of the other hg in the line. Its been a fun build.
>Ankles kind of suck. They did this odd swivel ball thing but because of the ankle armor it doesn't have much range.
>Arms, especially the shoulders, have a huge range of motion, and she can reach over and touch the opposite shoulder.
>The apron and head frill are that rubber material, which means you can't really paint it or fix nubs if you fuck up during removal.
>Skirt armor attaches through this sort of tab and slot system on the apron. Leaves a tiny gap between the skirt and apron so that the skirt can flex a bit.
>The arm pods are not built to be reopened and the gattling pieces (Leftover from the cardigan runner) don't attach to them. I modded one to work with it but it doesn't exactly look right, so I'm going to see if I can mod the ones I have leftover from powered arms powereder to work with it (instead of a hardpoint, she has 3mm pegs sticking out the side of the arms).
>>
>>13518873
>Beam saber handles are removable, but the kit doesn't come with blades. The kind that typically come with hguc kits fit into them fine though.
>No crotch hole for the actionbase. Instead you peg it into the backpack. I guess bandai though it would be too lewd.
>Its backheavy and has relatively small feet, so it can be a bit hard to balance, but comes with a stand included in the kit.

And onto the inevitable Fag comparisons.
>Fag has by far the nicer head sculpt, including hair.
>Super Fumina has much better articulation.
>Super Fumina is overall less stiff due to using less plastic on plastic connections and more polycaps.
>Because its bandai, the plastic is easier to work with than Koto.
>Super Fumina comes with more weapons and accessories.
>However it uses stickers and does not include waterslides like the FAG (Obviously).
>You can peg super fuminas arms right onto the FAGs, but the legs would require an adapter piece. They are very slightly oversized though as super fumina is slightly taller.

Honestly I have a mix of love and disappointment for this kit. The face is pretty poor and I wish the ankles were better, but the build has been very fun and the articulation is so much better than the Fags, and aside from the face the rest of the body is fine appearance-wise. I have some ideas on how to fix the face with putty I'm going to try over the weekend. I'll report back with my results when I finish.

Quick thoughts on the RG SF:
- It's very solid, and quite hefty for its size.
- As with all RG's, excellent engineering and very solid due to no gimmicks for most of the body.
- back-heavy, but that is to be expected. the Wing to backpack connection is ABS-on-ABS (though mekki'd), but it's not bad.
- the gold inner frame, though? It's the same disgusting puke-yellow that's used in other kits, so I strongly recommend painting that up (either black->chrome->transparent yellow or just black->testor's/mr. color gold or somesuch)

The RG Destiny is also very solid, though its Premium wing+stand set is far less value for its price than the SF's WoL parts.

I think most of the people who actually post Gunpla builds, construction advice, and kit reviews are pretty good. That's a small number of people but I find them valuable.

It comes with the modeling territory as well with being anonymous. You start to feel better than others in the community because you know/do more with your kits and have skills other newer people don't. 4chan as a whole is a breeding ground for elitism really.

Not him, but worth a buy. Definitely one of my better kits on my desk even though it's an older kit. It's top heavy, but the articulation of the arms is amazing. Enough space in its head/torso if you want to rig your own led to light up the eye. The eye is the only thing that's really bad about it.

You get constructive criticism on here all the time though. For every "it's shit throw it away" there's plenty of posts about sanding nubs, detailing, using a different color scheme, etc. I see people posting colored linearts and they get 2-3 posts pointing out how the colors would mesh better.

Hey anon, how is it you personally go about using plastic cement? I've tried using the Testors cement you have there a few times and it just doesn't fully close the seam. I'm new to seam welding but I've been doing what people said.

>Put the cement along the seams of each piece while the two halves are seperated
>Wait about 10 seconds
>Hold the parts together really tightly for a few seconds (again, around 10 or so)
>Use alligator clips to maintain pressure
>Wait 3+ hours and check back

It should be going fine, but seams don't fully close/
>>
>>13520851
what do you mean senpai
>>
>>13520886
I dunno, this is the first time I've bought testors cement and I haven't seam wielded with it yet.

Though normally if it doesn't work I just use tamiya liquid putty over the seam, let it dry, then sand.
>>
>>13520824
Lightning exia?

>>13520892

Could be where you're putting the cement. Explain exactly how you apply the cement. Leave out no detail. No matter how sordid or lewd.
>>
>>13520886
Maybe try applying the glue when the pieces are attached? Ive done this acouple of times and all i had to do was sand down any excess leftovers
>>
>>13520886
>>13520903
Probably not putting enough on. Should be enough so that some of it comes out between the seam.

I would encourage you to post your builds anyway. You'll get the usual professional "SAND THE NUBS" faggots who don't build talking shit, but at least you're actually building models. Furthermore, you're more likely to end up trying new techniques if people can offer them to you. Like, looking at your models, you're clearly competent at construction. If you don't want to take the airbrush step yet, I'd encourage you to try enamel-washing the panel lines. It's super easy, cheap, and looks wonderful.

>>13519391
That's a good idea and if I hadn't already finished building it, I'd try it. Maybe next time.

>>13519408
It's delicious. I wish I would have tried eliminating the seamlines on it, because some are obvious and look ugly, but the kit is great. It's also really different, which is a plus. If you don't paint, I think it's not as nice, but if you do, it's fun because it has large, open surfaces.

I think it's one of the best older HGUC kits overall.

>>13519666
People get mad over putting effort into your pictures? Wouldn't worry about it. That picture looks great.

Sorry for the late response. I dip the little brush the bottle gives into the jar, and then rub that's dipped brush against the jar to not have so much cement on it. Then I run it along -all- the contact points including the pegs. But no excess comes out when they stuck together. Should I not be lessening the amount on, or running the brush on the parts multiple times? I also did not do the outside parts. Thanks.
>>
>>13521510

This is why...you're suppose to put enough so it seeps through the seam, then let it dry and sand.

Working on my first fully-painted custom from snapfagging.
I'm replacing the shield with a Tallgeese one, might mod it to hold the GN Sword V SD Knight Gundam-like.
Planning on attaching the Tallgeese II head crest on the head with red feather-tail flowing to the back, Artorias-like.
Also giving it a lance and blue cape with gold-trimmings.
Wanna get some thoughts and opinions on this.
>>
>>13521659
The swords that the Amazing/DM Exia work better as a sword and they can easily be modified
>>
>>13521659
Make the greens into the gold highlights instead, maybe? The small details look alright but the Vfin stands out a little too much, to me.
The headcrest sounds like it's going to be too busy, though.
>>
>>13521675
Those swords are kinda too broad.
I'm just gonna mod the GN V to make it look more medieval like the Excalibur.
>>13521680
I tried a green metallic gundam marker and it looks pretty nice, planning on painting all the clear green piece with it.
I really like the idea of a helm-tail on a knight-like MS. My idea is to use a cable-tie wire and covering it with little bits of cloth hair to make it easier to manipulate.
Might use similar wires along the edges of the cape.

Was originally going for a kite-shield but scratch-building that seems kinda out of my league at the moment.

It's shit, you can't use it with a stand because the hip joints are really loose and just flop back down if you move them past a 30 degree tilt and the shoulders have really shallow pegs so they pop out if you move the arms too high or rotate them a lot.

Possibly. I'm hoping my friend that has them on backorder can snag me one but I'm doubtful. They should've released way more of these things, its such a great design.

How did you panel line? I know you're likely aware of this but the lines on the v-fin and face in particular are crazy dark and make it look a bit weird to me. I'd recommend getting a second colour for lining, probably a lighter gray for panel lining more subtle things like those areas. It adds some depth to the model.

But now that you mention it, I realize that there's nothing particularly wrong with the MGs of Exia and 00s (Raiser, 7S/G, Quanta), at least in my opinion.
A few quibbles here and there, but their RGs have other issues in exchange (Exia: rubbish forward hip articulation, 00: ugly binder locking mechanism, knee part ugly when bent), so both MG and RG versions are worth looking into, I guess.

The MG Qant's main issue for me is the fact that the backpack is held together simply with friction so it falls of really easily. I bet we'll be seeing a locking mechanism.
