So what's the next group build?

I might have a GM laying around that could be tooled up.

My first fully painted gundam. I decided to do some SD kits as my first to practice all the masking and whatnot. I learned that I hate masking haha.

>>13965602
Oops my phone rotated the pic, sorry.

>>13965508
I was thinking of actually having a Visor theme but with a small prize

>>13965645
Is it possible to do a poll of sorts?
Maybe more people would participate.

>>13965660
Roll Out colors was decided by a poll, and you saw how that went.

>>13965667

>>13965591
Wow, looks a whole lot better than my first attempt, nice job anon.

>>13965447
OP here. I really dig this. Though I think I'm going with a lighter purple for the torso, and keep your color scheme for the waist and the rest of the kit.

Thanks, anon!

Think with the help of action bases i could have MG Turn X hold another suit in the air to do Shining Finger? i'd be worried of the risk but the idea seems to good.

that or just get a DIO figure to pose with his VAs suit

Why not captured grunt units? Be it a full feddie gm stolen before it could be fielded by its federation pilot. Or late 0079 to 0080 where zeeks on earth were scrounging for anything so they used what parts they had with any suit they could field like in zeonic front. Feddie stolen zaku or zaku 2 early war before v project was in full swing. Or dinged up early war machine turned into civilian use none combat unit after they war.

Like the ones they would test and reverse engineer if not field. To the stolen units that test teams would use from 0079 up like weve seen with captured units from California base, 0083 and up. But maybe even a small story of why its being used or whos using it but make sense. Example, Feddies arnt gonna have a zeong captured or super rare suits unless theres a msv manga or other source to show its happened. And a farmer or construction crew wont afford something like a dom or gelgoog let alone be allowed to own a gm because feddies are dicks like that and make sure its obsolete and museum scrap haha.

Ehh but then there's things like titans to aeug mk 2, pale rider etc that were stolen but its like a unique situation as those were plot hax type situations. Same with the main gundams in seed. I wouldnt mind gelgoog marine in titans colors or something it makes sense that way but I feel mk 2 be lazy, but some series like age there werent really examples of that. Seed had mercenaries outside the junk guild or what have you so that makes sense, IBO people stealing shit from everyone. Also just straight up oh gm in gm colors but hey its "stolen" wouldnt cut it. It have to be a personalized unit.

I'd rather just do a graze or a gm group build. Just get one of those suits and go crazy. Keeping it simple is best if you want people to actually contribute.

Although thanks to a certain faggot most people won't bother with /m/'s group builds or even the thread, seems like

what is this beautiful beast

>>13966114
The Theilva. The Vagans captured the remains of the G-Bouncer and turned it into this monster.

I'm still amazed that to this day it doesn't have a P-Bandai kit. Somehow in terms of easy shit to make Bandai passed up this one.

Great, I can't get the vents off the chest of my Nemo. One more annoying step for when I paint it.

>>13965933
Glad you like it anon. Post pics when you get it done and tell us what the GF thinks

>>13966158
Have an exacto knife blade you can carefully wedge in and loosen the part with? It's how I wiggled mine out. Failing that, I think you can poke them out by disassembling the torso and pushing the pegs out from the inside.

>>13966122
That's wrong, they didn't capture it. The Thielva is a Feddy suit whose pilot defected to the Vagans because she incorrectly blamed the Federation for an X-rounder experiment gone wrong.

The suit and pilot was the basis for an idiotic character arc about something that was intended to be tragic but was more like a time-waste and didn't change a damn thing in the end other than showing how the most advanced Age Gundam could be threatened by a several years old prototype X-rounder suit whose pilot was vengeful for all the wrong reasons.

>>13966681
Bright vibrant rainbow because nemos are gay.

>>13966681
Orange and yellow.

>Tfw trying to fix my paint job just makes things worse.

I had to resort to hand painting since my spray can ran out. Hopefully a top coat would hide most of the shit.

>>13966635
Didn't the G-Bouncer start off as Woolfe's suit though?

>>13966726
The G-Bouncer was a line of mobile suits, not a unique machine.

>>13966726
G-Bouncer is Woolf's personal MS during second gen. It was a customized version of a limited/rejected Feddy design. Thielva has nothing to do with the G-Bouncer other than that it came from the same basic Fed MS from which the G-Bouncer was also created.

So, any decently priced hobby shops down in D.C.?

I saw this on eBay about a week ago and ordered it on impulse, but I was curious if anyone here had built it. Third party 1/60 Striker Packs by M3. Additional pics on eBay show them attached to both the PG Strike and the Skygrasper. Seems legit, but I've been burned before.

But I won't know for a month or so.

How did you guys get started with Gunpla? Did you get all the necessary gear (markers, knife, sand paper etc.) immediately or did you just get a kit first? What was your first Gunpla?

>>13970371
First gunpla was when I was, like, 10. Gundam Wing was on television and Wing kits were in stores. I probably fucked it up bad.

About two years ago, I decided to gunpla again and I bought an x-acto knife, a sprue cutter (the wrong kind), and a bit of sand paper (also not an ideal kind), and a kit. RG RX-78-02. Because I'm an idiot. It turned out okay given how shit I was and how not appropriate my tools were and how garbage I was. Later on I invested in good cutters, two good knives, some automotive grade sandpaper, some files, and thin cement.

So, basically, I got a kit and some shit equipment and replaced that equipment as I built kits over time.

my first kit was an MG Kampfer, which i built with scissors, nail clippers, and a small screwdriver.

>>13970371
Got started with gunpla with the Graze kit because I liked the design. I already had the tools for plastic models since I had started with some 1/35 Tamiya tank models and moved onto 1/1000 Space Battleship Yamato models.

>>13970371

Ignoring a few gundam wing kits I cobbled together during my youth,
I started out with a black paint marker, an exacto knife, some cheap nippers, and the wrong grit of sandpaper to go with an HG federation Zaku F2.
I've since ordered and gathered much better supplies after actually reading through the OP guide.

>>13970371
I started in the middle of Gundam Build Fighters Season 1.

My first kit was an HG Deathscythe Hell Custom, cause it was the only kit a local hobby shop near where I live had. I also picked up some metal files, exacto knife and nippers from another hobby shop that sells Warhammer 40k figs.

I didn't paint it or even panel line or top coat it. I don't think I ever will. I'm gonna leave it exactly as I built it, to remind me where I started.

Hobby knife, nippers, toothpicks, HG AGE-1 Normal

I started lining with my second kit

>>13970371
00 Raiser HG and Gundam MK. II revive titans. Bought an x-acto knife set, cutting mat, the nippers that were recommended in the guide, the wrong kind of gundam marker, and too fine of sandpaper.

I did the MK. II first and irredeemably fucked up the right arm. I accidentally cut half the ball joint off when cutting it off the runner thinking it was excess plastic. Realized the mistake about 5 seconds after I made the cut. He's now test material.

RG Astraea parts arrived today.

HG 00 Seven Sword arrived stupidly fucking fast. Thanks beamknight and ascendant rodent dude.

>>13971204

Having finished snapping a REX together a few days ago, I'll give you a tip.

Be very, very careful with the peg holding its railgun.

So I get that garage/resin kits are harder than Gunpla to make look good, but how much so are we talking? Because I really want to pick up one of the Messer Garage kits, but I'm intermediary at best. Most of my model painting experience is from playing 40K, but I haven't done that in a few years.

Should I hold off and just stick to customizing gunpla? Or would it be worth the dive at this point?

>>13967675
Yeah, I can't tell weather it's actually growing on me or Stockholm Syndrome is setting in

Fucking hate the hover mode tho

>>13967675

I think the problem is the concept art, which made it look really disproportionately skinny on top and fat on the bottom. The actual kit looks way better. The head looks better too in the sculpt, and the knife looks 10 times better than that shit folding blade the Kimaris has.

I still prefer the regular Kimaris head but the Trooper has grown on me. I might get an extra Kimaris/Trooper and "kitbash" the Kimaris top half with the Trooper lower half.

Fucking Tamiya masking tape left residue on a painted part, how do i fix this?

My uncle loved building model kits and I'd always spend my time watching him make cool model kits when I was around 5 or so, it was amazing to me.
Few years later, my parents moved really far away and I eventually found some G Gundam gunpla way back when they sold gunpla and gundam figures in local stores. It reminded me of my uncle who was more of a father to me than my actual father, and I got my mom to buy me a bunch because I remembered how cool they were. They turned out looking nubby and terrible because I was 8 but that started my violent descent into gunpla addiction.
14 years of building gunpla later and I'd like to think I've gotten close to my uncle's level of skill. I never got to talk to him about gunpla because he moved to Hong Kong for work and had no wi fi, but I remember always looking forward to the family reunions we sometimes did so we could talk all about gunpla and shit and show him how good I got.
Never got to though because he died a year before our families could get together. His wife gave me a PG wing zero custom ew that he always wanted to build but never got to, I'm planning to build it for him once I've got more free time and put it by his grave one day or some shit.
thinking about it always bums me out, hold me /m/ [\spoiler] ; _ ;

If the first, take her to small claims court and sue her for the cost of replacing your toys.

Just been building my first kit and ran into a problem.

Am I missing something? I just read through the guide again specifically hoping to learn about stands, but I couldn't find any information on them. Which kinds tend to work with which grades, where to get cheap ones etc.

Hgbf red warrior is based off of redwarrior from the plamo Kyo manga from the early 80s before the game that Casval's gundam is from existed. It was a custom intended to be a sort of happy medium between FA gundam and the standard rx-78. More mobile than FA gundam but heavier armor and firepower than the normal rx-78.

It's not that the mods let it happen, they just don't care about /m/. And the one janitor we had left long ago. All of the mods are FBI agents so they only care about CP threads and "mass shooting happening" threads in /b/. Cops don't give a fuck about Gundams or karate bugmen.

And whatever janitors we get don't stick around cause they can't make a difference. They delete his shitposts, but he just keeps on. They flag him to be banned and the FBI goes "Why are you wasting our time with this bullshit?" So the janitors just give up cause it's an uphill battle they can't win.

I don't post often, mostly lurk since I rarely have much to contribute, and it's just nice being around other people who like gunpla too. I do post builds, but only sometimes. The Nemo used for the OP picture is actually mine, it was a pleasant surprise seeing my build being used.

>>13974148
You seem alright

Do you live in Denver?

>>13974148
you try to remove your nubs, so you're ok in my book

>>13974170
No, New York.

>>13974137
>>13974147
Thanks for making me feel a little better about it I guess. I always kinda judged myself for being kinda immature with my hobby but dammit, its what makes me happy.

>>13974192
Thanks, I've actually gotten better at removing nubs very recently after realizing how much better it looks to remove nubs with sandpaper instead of just cutting it off with an xacto knife. Now I cringe every time I look at my past builds and see the obvious marks in the plastic where the knife cut in too deep. Damn that was retarded.

>>13974110
Do you constantly post pics of them, sometimes posting the same pic over and over on multiple days?

>>13974216
>tfw I posted the same pic 3 threads in a row
...oops

>>13974216
Haha, no. I guess it's reassuring to know that even if I'm autistic, I'm not shitposter's level of autistic.

I kind of feel bad for him though, maybe he just needs a friend.

>>13974246
He needs to fuck off
People tried to help him and all he did was keep shitposting and act like a general retard

>>13974205
try using a file set like this

just go in on direction, then finish off with sand paper

>>13974111

You are worse than all the attention whoring shitposters in this general combined.

At least from what I can see, they don't have mindbogglingly horrid taste like you do.

>>13974252
I feel like he's just acting out because he's really lonely. I can sort of understand. Still, he is making the threads pretty shitty. Hopefully one day he gets it together.

>>13974256
Alright, thanks. Good thing I got the Amazon Prime free trial recently.

Do these attention whoring shitposters like the Qubeley? If so they definitely have "mindbogglingly horrid taste", just like you ;^)

I'm not even saying the Gusion is good, and it ain't, but Qubeley is maybe the worst Mobile Suit to ever come out of Gundam.

Wait, 2nd worst, I forgot Throne Drei existed for a moment

>>13974444
But that's all wrong.

>defending the Drei

>>13974110 No, no you're not. As long as you de-nub and panel line.
My shelves are close to my bed too, but that's more of a coincidence by how my room is made, not actually part of the bed and definitely not on the nightstand...
My room is the only room that's 100% cat-free so it's the only place I feel comfortable putting them.

Do we know he's legit, not just trolling us with fake set-up pics? I can't believe this is real.

I would have agreed with you before I bought the REVIVE. I quite like it a lot now, it has grown on me. I never liked it the first two times I saw Zeta but I'm excited to see it again soon on my 2rd rewatch.

God, I actually had to look up what the Drei looked like even though I remember the other Thrones.
>>13974444
And finally, I actually thought I was the weird one for hating the Qubeley. So many people seem to think it's the greatest.
I'm not alone in that! This is the best feeling ever!

>>13974110
My favorites on are a shelf coincidentally near my bed and the rest are on another shelf, I also have my figures on my desk. I am planning on making a box art collage when I collect all of a certain set

>>13974653
Don't worry, you don't have to see it in ZZ because ZZ isn't canon

Don't you worry about your kits falling down all over you and the bed when you're having sex? It just doesn't seem like the smartest place to put them to me.

Both kits have an MMP-80.
The Kai's version has an underslung grenade launcher.

not my kits sadly, i just like how he weathered them and added 40k decals

>>13974845
Well, why not make your own Heart and Club then? Heart can be a pink Dom and Club can be a Gouf.

If that isn't an advert for contraceptives I can't think of a better alternative.

They went back to Japan and China to await the next time the world is in need of their unified strength. Who knows, maybe next time the feddies will create a giant Gundam head with another Gundam sticking out of it. And it'll have nanomachines and lasers and shit.

Well Sam just shipped my 1/100 Penelope, MG Banshee Norn and 1/100 Destiny.

Now I play the waiting game for a month or two.

English teacher in Japan here, I haven't built gunpla in over a year.

What's the best, newest kit that's relatively cheap but can let me get back into the game? I saw pics of HGUC 1/144 クロスボーン・ガンダムX2 and immediately wanted to get back into gunpla.

>>13975216
the X1 then, or Master Gundam + Fuunsaki

>>13975216
the new HG IBO line is pretty solid so you could pick any of those they're all about 800 yen

that crossbone x2 will be fine too its a new mold.

>>13975216
IBO line is cheap and beginner friendly

>>13975222
>>13975219
I've only seen five eps of IBO so far, so I'm not in love with any of the designs I've seen. Any particular fun kits?

>>13975218
Full Cloth X1, maybe? The other is too similar to Crossbone Maoh, my first build.

Honestly, any of the Grazes. I recommend the Chocolate Lolicon's Graze.

Or the Ryusei-Go. http://dalong.net/review/ib/ibh12/ibh12_p.htm

Or both.

HGUC GM Command, with nothing but a rusty razorblade. I wish I was kidding. Boy am I glad I have better stuff now.

I started with the HG Kampfer (a really nice kit), built him using just a pair of nippers
Before that I only collected GFF figures, then things kind of escalated..
Old photo BTW

Anyone else use plastic cement to melt away stress marks?

>>13970371
I think my first gunpla was an ancient shenlong when I was nine
I thought I was getting a toy, but I followed the instructions and built it with an old pair of scissors
Haphazard building aside it slowly broke and lost parts while I was younger and got lost during a move (It had ended up as parts in a large ziploc that I didn't want to get rid of) and that was the end of that.
Until a few years ago when my girlfriend got me a Jesta and a Tamiya basic tool kit when I showed interest. I did pretty bad, but I feel like I'm slowly improving since then.
