It was kind of a Char Custom so I figured pink monoeye color might go well with it. But I did notice it looked off, I just didn't want to change it. Finding a good color to replace the not-quite-blue in the core was hard too, I guess I'll try some other things.

Reposting cause old thread is dead.

How good are the Volks FSS kits? I've always had a hard time finding them, but someone pointed out to me that there's a site online that sells them for only $70 shipped, which I thought was pretty reasonable.

I'm thinking about the Prominence right now because it looks like the one that needs the least amount of paint and touch-up, but do recommend me any better ones if you can.

All of those color options are terrible. Shoulders shouldn't be blue and that's too much yellow on the skirt.

I really like this color scheme, and the Alex has always been my all time favorite UC Gundam, next to the Mk-II. I might have to steal this paint scheme from you. Although, what model would you be using for this, is there a HG, or would you be using the ancient MG of it?

It depends on the weapon to weapon basis. Some work well enough as a normal weapon, some are better as back mounted since they're larger. The handgun set is fine for usage, harpoon is good on the back. Check reviews for whichever one you have your eye on.

>>14079044

>>14079151
overall the Volks FSS kits are very good with high level of detail and when finished are quite stunning. However it must be noted that volks has traditionaly done resin kits and have only recently started to do injection molds. This means that some kits including the prominence and the bang doll may require some more work than your usual bandai kit since nubs sometimes are not placed in the best of locations. On the other hand volk's resin kits are phenomenal but dont come colored.

On the topic of buying kits, i have bought 4 volks kits to date. the first two were the injection modeled prominece and neptune and i bought them off of the official volks website. in total the order cam out to be $180 ish.

https://www.volks.co.jp/page_ex.jsp?CONTROLID=SC0010&BUSINESSID=InitDisp&version=en

My other two kits i ordered off of eBay and are recast resin kits that i bought for around $70 each. however i should mention that these kits have not arrived yet so i do not know if their are any major flaws with them.

http://www.ebay.com/usr/gk_hobby?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2754

Over all for buying FSS kits i would recommend just regularly checking places like eBay, yahoo, or whatever service you prefer and if something pops up act quick because it can be gone before you know it.

>>14080534
I want to ask is the hammer the issue or rather the fact that a simple stick was used as a tail.

I mean I can change is so that it was more of a tail,whilst keeping the hammer which i need for counter balance

if my only option for purchasing alligator clips to make clip sticks for painting is via amazon, which ones should I go for?

>>14080768
Depending on the part, you take a wire and wrap tape around it until it's thick enough to hold when you stick it in a hole on the part you're trying to paint. Not as good as alligator clips though

>>14080602
I've always found Beam-Rifle shots/poses of the Age-2 Normal really nice

They're massive and awesome looking. Shelf presence and detail would blow most MG's out of the water. You do need to glue and do a bit of painting, but it's really not much more work than your typical Kotobukiya kit.

$70 is a pretty great price, so I would grab it if I were you.

>>14080592

>Not buying Age gunpla.

Shit on the show as much as you want but the mechs are cool and the HG are very well designed, gafrans and shit like that aside.

I only have the 1/48 Ingram, it's modeled after the Live action version so the detail is top notch, the only downside is that it can hardly hold its weapon in its hand, and the weapons themself is ridiculously small for some reason ( the revolver's barrel is thinner than Ingram's finger)

Yeah, my local hobby shops guys give me a discount too. It's nice stopping in and not feeling pressured to buy anything and just talk instead. My guys don't mind the discount because the bulk of their income from the stores modeling sales comes from the sales of supplies like paint and putty rather than the models themselves.

The gunpla is apparently their best selling type of kit though and they can't believe how quick they sell.

Liquid cement should do the trick. Stuff like Tamiya's extra thin cement or the equivalent products of other brands.

Brush it on both pieces, wait for ten seconds, put it together and hold it for a while. Then let it sit for a few hours until it's properly cured.

Preorder price for the special coated Freedom right now is 10,800 JPY. Vanilla Freedom is 4840. Even if you take 25% off that's still a 40 dollar mark-up.

>>14081621
>no gf to build models with

>>14079511
It's not just about the price markup, it's the fact that some of the pbandai releases don't need to exist at all and can be regular releases.

Also if you don't buy them at release, you get fucked over on cost more often than not. Unless the kit is undesirable from the get go (rarely happens) it will always go up in price and they rarely get reprinted. Forcing people to buy a kit at release is a big fuck you in itself, especially in this hobby. The reason I like model kits, and I'm sure many other anons, is that it's a hobby that you don't need to rush you just enjoy it at you're own pace with the exception of the people on here who enjoy buying kits and having huge backlogs rather then the actual building.

>>14081639
And the price for the exia amazing being discussed was only 400 yen higher than the regular release mg dark matter, and the upcoming hguc x-2 is only about 300 yen higher. More if you need to go through amiddleman obviously, but not by too much.

Bandai always jacks up the cost of special coating kits, P-Bandai or not.

I don't even think you know what pbandai was before it was called pbandai when it actually made sense. Half of the kits that are pbandai now are made pbandai just to make money but I'm guessing you're part of the recent gunpla newfag influx and will defend anything

>>14082154
not that guy, I'm fine with limited recolors with one or two new accessories, but something like that that even has proper box art and several new molds, that shouldn't probably be P-Bandai.

>>14082162
>Half of the kits that are pbandai now are made pbandai just to make money

>>14082165
You understand that molds are expensive right? So new molds can only be made if they think they can make profit, and if they think using the mold to make more than they can sell they sell them solely in Japan from P Bandai.

Regarding Altron specifically, they made an entirely new mold for it so you would think that it would be a regular release. It doesn't make sense why that one was specifically pbandai as they're usually just a remold with a few added on parts which make sense unless they thought it wasn't going to sell which obviously wasn't the case as it sold out fast

All them 0s now got me wanting an MG 00 Gundam.

What I did was paint the inner frame and the lance using Vallejo Black primer, then dry brushed both with armypainters plate mail metal.

The details on the lance are hand brushed with Armypainters gun metal using a very fine brush, its easier than it looks.

For lining I just used Tamiya Panel Line Accent color. Grey for the light colors, and black for the dark parts.

The eyes are just black then brushed Armypainters greedy gold on it.

Then sprayed the whole kit with Testors Flat spray. You can make any kit look alright with flat coat and lining really.

No. Everyone that touts the red Astray is a Bandai shill. It's the only way that it makes sense. They get people to think it's ugly, then by weight of exposure the mind is weakened and then people purchase it, or maybe they purchase it then throw it away because it IS ugly.

I don't own one, I think they're ugly, but something about it is really fucking cool. I'm thinking about the RG please dissuade. Is it a hand-grenade?

>>14084841
You might as well spend your money to get a tranny hooker to rape your asshole anon. Its better spent that way, and you get a cooler gimmick than the Astray in the form of AIDS.

>>14084841
I also think that the base design is a little garish (I'm not an uglyposter) but the RG actually looks really cool to me too. I would never buy any other grade but the RG just works for some reason. I'd also like to know if it's a hand grenade.

>>14084856
>>14084841
For me the Astray is an OK design except for the colors. Blue is somewhat ok but it really helps when the color scheme doesn't make the frame the most noticeable part.

It's better to stay single.
or just date men. My Bf is my exact opposite and he doesn't give a shit about all my nerdy hobbies. Never asks for anything, but really loves the zeta gundam I painted in his colors. And customized a bit. He tried taking pictures but doesn't get posing that well.

RG's I would never do this with:
RX-78-2, Zeta, Infinite Justice, Strike, the GP-01's

I'd probably try WITHOUT the backpacks:
Destiny, Strike/Freedom, OO Gundam, Wing 0 Custom

10/10, would try again:
MkII, Exia

>his colours
>black and pink with the Deathscythe's Scythe
Anon, that's hella gay. And edgy. It's gayedgy.

>>14084938
Yeah, no shit it's gay. I also added crystals to the skirt, leg thrusters, and the sniper. I asked him what he thought of the deathscythe and said he could take or leave the suit but liked the scythe itself. Whatchu gonna do bout it?

>>14084928
>his colors
Why are fags so gay?

>>14084928

It's okay, Anon, you didn't have to come up with an elaborate background story for your shittaste in color schemes.

>living the dream.jpg

I'm hella jealous.

>>14084944
I'm really surprised that people are surprised about some gay dude building a model for his bf on /m/ of all places.

You talking about rhinestones?

>Whatchu gonna do bout it?
Same way I always deal with stress.

Drinking heavily.

>>14084934
Nope, he's all good and back in the cabinet.

>>14084956
Yeah, rhinestones. They were the hardest part. I had to sand each one down to fit the slots, then do it again to match the other side. They weren't perfect, and the picture doesn't really show them off. There's one in the head camera that you might be able to see, and then another in the rifle in that picture.

>>14084958
Shame.

Shucks. I was hoping so. I guess this is just angled cleverly.
