>Messed up Dark Matter's V-Fin

I am in despair.

>>14110748
I'd be in despair too if I wasted cash on that suit.

Does Kotobuki or anyone else make some parts like EW Altron's extendo arms, or Epyon's tail?

Like some big joints I can connect and connect to make it as long as I want. I don't even know what kind of joints those are called. A lot of the joints I see seem to be for legs or arms, and not like a snake/tail.

>>14110755
Meanie!

>>14110744
To the builder of OP pic, it's not wise to build while sick. While you seemed to have done fine, it's too easy to screw up or be harmed one way or another.

OP, why was it necessary to make a new thread so early? At least wait till it's on page 9.

>part of a piece is missing (a pipe-like part)
>no cut or stress marks, but there is a circle like shape in the plastic

I guess it's a factory error then? Thankfully it's not something very noticeable, as it is on the back of the suit.

IRC Anon, when are you gonna talk to the people and burn that piece of shit?

>>14110830
Cut some runner pipes and sand as needed then plastic cement it on?

>>14110744
I have a Bandai Action Bases for my 1/100 kits, and I don't really like them, they seem cheap and they take up a lot of real estate.

Are there any alternatives? Both my kits are MG Wing kits, so they're smaller than most UC stuff.

>>14110744
Holy crap I'm the general image this time! Kinda honored really. Thanks.

Meh, I've just been applying decals for the most part. Been doing it for so long this stuff is kinda like my mindless zen, no mistakes, just happy accidents.

The part that inserts into the hand (what the pen is pointing to) somehow snapped off

>>14111466
Just glue it back on?

If it's going to be held a hand is going to cover it anyway, I would just slice the rest off.

Is japan-cool the only Gunpla retailer in the UK?

>>14111483
There's always Amazon, but that shit takes for fucking ever.

Japan-cool is ok but their prices are kinda high.

>>14111523
>>14111483
Are those the best optons for gunpla in the UK? I'm thinking about getting my first kit, but I'm not sure where's best.

>>14111529
Just depends how quick you want them and how much you want to pay, Japan cool has the whole range but not everything is in stock.

>>14111483
could you not just use amazon, or order like amiami or something

>>14111016
muh dick

>>14111481
This. I sliced it off on my spare (Since Im building Gaia's Origin Zaku II instead of Mash's) so it could fit in my Kampfer Amazing's hands. It's less stable, but still pretty stable.

>>14111546
This is why I have like a 5+ backlog of kits, By the time those are done my Amazon order comes in and the cycle then repeats.

>>14110748
>tfw mess up cutting a V-Fin
There must be an easier way other than going with an x-acto knife. At least it was only the RX-78-2 Revive.

>>14111774
Files. Use files on a V-Fin.

>>14111774
An xacto knife or nippers on a v-fin is asking for trouble, anon. Just sand it down with a low grit sandpaper or a file and finish with a high grit.

>>14111774
lol wut

Use a sanding block bro, slicing a V-fin is almost impossible.

>>14111835
Not that anon but I usually cut the safety nubs on a V-fin and if you gently slice at it you can do it with no issues. Just takes loads of patience.

>>14111774
I know that feel, man. I made the same mistake with my Freedom Revive despite being fine for like 6 kits before it. I spent the night after thinking how stupid I was for not using files or just sanding it down. Needless to say, right now on my V-Dash I did a sanding + file combo and it's fine.


Except this time my lining pen, Pigma Micron, started leaking on to my finger when I was lining the face plate and head vents. I didn't notice and as I put the head together the ink smudged all over the back discolouring it. Sanding doesn't make it go away and I'm a snapfag [read: poorfag] so I can't paint it away either, and I don't want to brittle the plastic with lighter fluid. Thank goodness I still have a Hexa head, I'll wait until my panel lining gundam markers come in the mail before making it.

How do I make Wing Zero's wings more shiny? using gloss coat isn't enough

>>14111981
Glitter? Or cover it in vaseline.

You can make a clean break on a peg that attaches a whole limb, pin it and then use plastic cement and have it totally work fine.

Alright so within the last week he has made duplicate/new generals before the page has hit page 10. According to ancient history, the Mods decreed that no new general should be made before page 10.

Also, what about Global Rule #6?

Also, this is all within the last month.
Point out that some of these images are the same ones he used from the fall.

Someone else is going to have to do this. I obviously can't talk to these guys worth a fuck. I've failed, and I'm sorry.

>>14112123
If at all possible, someone should get his all posts where he calls /toy/ a hugbox. Which is at least 3 times every general.
Or does he delete them so that he can't get b& for it?

>>14112195
You're shit and your constant call for getting people to do the leg work gathering evidence for you only made snapshit and his ilk tone things down a bit so that they won't have active posts for mods to see.

>>14112195
One of the guys you're talking to is basically saying that we're feeding Snapfag by reacting to him. Doesn't the fact that he does and says things that are unpopular (flaming, trolling) and very much against the community SOLELY for the sake of getting responses make him a troll?
Isn't that DIRECT violation of Rule 3?

Fucking incompetent shits
>8. Complaining about 4chan (its policies, moderation, etc) on the imageboards may result in post deletion and a ban

I mean, man these mods and janitors sure have a hard time policing these here imageboards, we best gather even more proper evidence that explicitly condemns Snapfit-kun soon!

>>14112213
Not to mention that he replies to himself all the fucking time and makes no effort to conceal it

>>14112213
I mean, I know 3 and 6 are a little "open", but this is pretty blatant.

>>14111835
>slicing a V-fin is almost impossible
Every one of the safety nubs on all of my v-fins is sliced and then sanded. It's not "almost impossible."

>>14112214
I think this is why /m/ needs a mod that is solely dedicated to /m/.
Someone that "mains" /m/ and is very knowledgeable and able to blend in with all the communities on here, someone who knows the ins-and-outs.
Because right now it doesn't feel like we have any mods or janitors like that. Ones who know the board and communities. It feels like we just have ones that are assigned to multiple, higher traffic boards who will maybe sometimes delete blatant copy-pasta threads and explicitly rule-breaking images if we report them at least 50 times.

I think the Kimaris has a large presence

>>14111140
Funny thing. Same thing happened to to me on the same gun. Just take a number tab from the runners and cement it. If it breaks off again, I might drill a hole and make a more stable tab for the hands.

>>14112272
I still can't get over the horse dildo head. It's even worse on Kimaris Trooper and looks completely ridiculous.

You guys should focus more on snapshit being a nuisance for the board in general. Focusing on what he does in the generals means nothing since that is common in every general.

>>14112350
The top of the head and the lack of color on the chest are the only things that really bother me. I have gotten over the head though, but I do think it would be better if rounded out, the cat face is fine but the protruding top is definitely off.

>>14112401
I used black enamel paint, so that probably made it stick out more. I personally prefer not to use any other color either, despite what people prefer.

>>14112412
With the design of the Kimaris, the black is actually a really good effect except for two areas. The little triangles on the shoulders and the thigh panels end up looking really strong. The rest of it turned out great.

Odd question, where would a Canadian get kits the cheapest?

Amazon.ca has had a few pop up with free shipping, but a bit more expensive than Hobby Link. The catch is that the ones on Amazon have free shipping, and the shipping from most sites seems to cost an arm and a leg.

Any other Canadians have some recommendations?

>>14112354
Honestly I'm glad he uses a name, I namefiltered him and haven't had problems since

>>14112651
I've used HLJ, but their prices are in yen and the CND is shit.
Hobbywave is also good. Their prices are in USD, so again, CND means the prices are a higher, but the lower prices + $18 shipping can save a lot if you're buying a bunch.
If you're only buying one or two, might just wanna go with amazon.

>>14112071
Polystyrene cement glued parts can bear loads pretty well even without pinning. This isn't cyanoacrylate based glue we are talking about.

What 1/144 scale sword makes for good Obari posing? Is there a System Weapon that has such a sword?

>>14112690
1/144 Kotobukiya Sword set has what you're looking for friend.

This may sound dumb but how do you remove a seam line of two parts that sandwich another part? I.e. like HG shoulders etc?

>>14112719
Isn't that just a normal seam line? Any reason why you couldn't use plastic cement and/or putty like normal?

>>14112651
I just bite the bullet and use HLJ. Ordered a Graze Ein and a Zaku II + Big Gun tonight.

Someone convince me to not get Dynames and G Bouncer HG reprints.

Sure their price point is quite high when they are scarce............

>>14111981

sometimes I like thick lining because it looks like a cartoon

>>14112775
Coming from a huge 00fag, I'm extremely skeptical of 00S1 kits. I got an Exia and Kyrios and both were lackluster as fuck and felt extremely lazy.
As for Dynames himself, he comes with beam saber hilt, but no beam saber. From what I've seen online he looks plasticky and toylike as fuck, but that might be fixed with painting and topcoating.

>>14112805

The only thing I have that's close to a Season One kit is the Astraea Type F, since that's mostly a retool of the Exia. It's a really fun kit. Decent range of movement, plenty of detail. It, for sure, is one I can recommend.

>>14112825

If you live in a major city or near one there should be a Chinatown area. Somewhere in that two block chink radius are at least two stores that sell Japanese imports for pretty decent CAD pricing. Calgary has 4 stores in their Chinatown (with one just doing gunpla) and Edmonton has a few stores in the mall, BC is full of tiny stores too due to your massive Chinese influx.

Human beings only need an 8x10 room, really. More than most nips get and plenty of space to do and have stuff if you're creative and build up. It is VERY easy to arrange a room that you almost don't have to leave at all if you're good at trash management.

How do you build model kits? Do you just hold the very small pieces with tweezers because your hands don't have the mobility? Are you like that guy in the Macross Delta thread who couldn't do the W Walkure sign only using one hand because your fingers are too fat to bend like that by themselves?

I'm on the opposite end of the scale here, just about fitting in the healthy/normal weight scale, leaning towards underweight.

>>14114320
Zaku 2 2.0 is a great first taste for MGs.

Speaking of first MGs. Let's get a census going.

Post your first MG you ever bought and if you built it or not.

I'll go first, since that way I can hide the thread and won't get bullied.

You don't paint parts that are still on the runner because after you cut the piece from the runner and sand/trim the nub, you're left with unpainted areas that you're just going to have to repaint anyways.

EZ-8 and Gouf Custom, what else?

Those gunpla fire sales Amazon used to have were amazing though. Got 78-2 1.5, GM, Alex, Kampfer, Zaku, Char's Zaku for less than $10 each, and that was like ten years ago. Same with my PG Char's Zaku - it was ludicrously marked down.

Making a "Slick Rick" Rick Dom custom paint

That's not a bad idea. It's pretty cheap too if I remember correctly. Might be a good way to practice adding battle damage and weathering.

Mg Wing Zero EW was the first I bought, but MG Freedom was the first I finished completely. WZ gave me problems, mostly for being a skillless noob.

Not an MG, but my first MG-like kit was the R3 L-Gaim Mk-II. Even to this day I don't think any kit I've put together has topped it in terms of shear detail, not even PG's. I did a rather shoddy job with the build and would love to buy and build it again, but since it's not Gunpla it hasn't been reprinted in years.

Are Vallejo Acrylic paints any good? I want to try my hand at painting and don't want to wait on shipping.

No. Vallejo Acrylics are shit. Literally. You buy it and they ship you a giant jar of fresh dog shit, sometimes they feel extra jazzy and mix in some fresh cow shit too. But all you're getting is shit. Also it's toxic. Extremely toxic. So toxic that putting it on your gunpla will kill your parents. It'll get a gun and put a fucking bullet in their heads, that's how toxic Vallejo Acrylic paints are. Also the colours are a lie. You buy Sparkling Ruby Buttplug Red and instead they just send you Feces Sample Brown or Scat Fetish Brown. Lastly their customer service is horrendous. If you call the number on the jars they don't answer, they just laugh at you non-stop for thirty six hours. Then they use your phone to make collect calls to Russia and India and people in those countries can laugh at you too.

Vallejo Acrylics are fine. Stop being retarded and think for yourself for a change.

Alright, bit the bullet and bought MG Exia and MG Zaku II 2.0.

What Tamiya colours should I buy? Also, I need primer and clearcoat, I think. I'm grabbing some Mr. Hobby top coat right now too. Oh man, getting all the supplies for the first time is exciting.

Exia can be made into the Exia Repair as well (which I'll probably do), but the broken GN sword is white. Gunmetal doesn't seem like the right colour for it. Hmm.

Your eyes dart over the generous amount of kits on the shelf. You've never seen so many kits in one place before. There are all kinds of kits on the shelves. High grades, Real Grades, Master Grades, and even Perfect Grades!

You make your way over to the displays in a calm fashion. You try not to express your overwhelming excitement because the shop keeper is watching you. It seems like an eternity, but you are finally within reach of a kit. It doesn't matter what kit it is. This is the first time you have set your hand on a box of GunPla that does not belong to you. After years of ordering online, it feels strange yet satisfying. Flipping over the box you read the price tag. Thirty dollars. You pause for a moment and flip the box over again. You are holding the HGUC Victory Two Gundam. In disbelief you set down the box and scan over to another kit. There must be some kind of mistake. You pick up the HGUC RX-78-2 Gundam Revive and look at the price. It's thirty dollars as well. A wave of panic rushes over you as you realize that everything is way too expensive. You hurriedly make a beeline for the exit while trying to avoid contact with the nice elderly asian grandma who is tending the store.

"Have a nice day, come back soon!" says the grandma with a warm motherly voice as you push open the door.

Hours later you sit at home and order kits from HLJ.

>>14114957

30 dollars is fucking outrageous for a high grade. Especially something like the Revive because that shit is like 800 yen so it being 30 dollars is almost four times the price.

They also have a ton of the IBO kits at 59.99 each, and RGs at 54.99. I always go in expecting to find something I want reasonably priced, and every time, I see the price and immediately check on my phone to see how bad the jewing is.

>>14115437
Do it on them anyway. You'll have more incentive to be careful with them if you really like the suits, and if you don't mess up you'll just end up with a good looking kit. If you do mess up on a kit you like, then you'll just be even more careful in the future, and you will learn that much more from your mistakes.

My little brother has (had?) pectus excavatum something nasty. Thankfully insurance covered it because it would have screwed up his heart pretty badly as he grew up but the surgery (popped bars through him) overcorrected it so now he has a bit popping out too. Now he's like 96% fine, he just takes pills to keep his heart size in check. His chest is a little cramped but again, 96% fine.

Also, I'm a super hungry skeleton at 5'10" 120lbs.

Don't worry anons you aren't alone, there are other anons like you out there.

/m/ I would like some advice. I posted a while back that a friend of mine gave me a strike Freedom gundam for free after she broke off a piece on the rear.

Now I'm not a fan of seed or destiny as such after I got frustrated trying to repair it I have shelved it never for it to see the light of day.

However I would like to return the favor and surprise her with a Kit as a thank you gift none the less However I know what I like and my tastes are not quite the same as hers. She likes the flashy Wings and Lots of colors.

I'd like to get a HG kit as neither of us are comfortable in skill level to touch master yet. What kits would /m/ Suggest I go with. She has only watched War in a pocket so Series shouldn't matter.

>>14115620
Get Hygogg and leave the note "if you think these fingers are impressive, wait until you see mine".

Just kidding, Hygogg and Zgok E are kind of a hassle if you're really looking for something simple. For flashy mecha, look at Wing and SEED. Freedom was actually a good choice for that. Maybe a Eing Fenice?

Wing. Wing Fenice.
And again, regular Wing and Freedom Revive are cool-looking. Check out the Nu if you think she likes the sci-fi realistic aspect of it as well as the cool robot part.

Beargguy sounds like you'd be looking down on her and I usually only rec it for girls who haven't watched Gundam (or ones who need it to complete their collection, but good luck finding a girl like that). However, it is undeniable that bitches love Beargguy. So decide based on her personality, choose.

Wing Fenice R. Alternatively, Zero Honoo or Build Strike Full Package.

But if you introduce it in her critical period of /m/hancement then she might take it as "you're a girl so you get the cute girly thing, let the boys play with real robots" which is not at all what you want to say. Just treat her like you would a male friend. Once she shows appreciation for the hobby she should pass the point where Beargguy can be taken as an insult and accept Beargguy as what it is.

Or not at all in this case, by the sound of the earlier posts. Fenice or Fenice R are both good choices and I'll keep repeating that.

Kennesaw claims the status of largest hobbytown USA in the country, but gunpla they stock maybe twice a year, and have less shelf space dedicated to it than the average builder.

It's a big joke with the 5-odd others gunplarers in the metro that I know. We'd rather drive to the anime shop at the Mall of Georgia, at least then we might find a scroll or a figure when we're disappointed with the model selection. Better looking trim too

my hobbytown is reasonable for HGs but MGs quickly go way up in price

>>14115907

I'll occasionally trek up to the HobbyTown in Greenwood, Indiana.

I've nabbed a few HGs from there. They're very reasonable ($15 bucks for the HD Remaster release of the Strike Gundam) and they've got a decent enough selection of tools and Gundam markers and stuff. And their little free rewards card is pretty handy.

hobby lobby used to carry gunpla

until the DEATHSCYTHE HELLLLLLL CUSTOM

same with walmart I believe

>>14115926
Was it just a shipping issue or did they stop stocking them because of the HELL CUSTOM cuz muh Christian Values?

>>14115935

it's hard to find a lot of info on this that isn't just old forum posts. I know for sure hobby lobby used to carry them in the early 2000s and I've heard walmart did too. Not totally sure it wasn't just the death of the gundam fad or for religious reasons/complaints due to the deathscythe hell. Kind of similar time periods anyway.

here is a guy in 2001 saying you can get DSH at walmart

>>14115939
Walmart still sells gundam figures online. The prices are all over the place and follow no logic.

Don't diss the Beargguy, motherfucker.

it's like amazon's third party sellers, those aren't handled by walmart directly

Current WIP, moved onto my 1/100 Barbatos, since I haven't painted him fully yet. Still slowly painting panel lines and the canon. How am I doing, guys?

>>14116246
The red/pink markings on the armor are so big, specially for a 1/100, that you should be masking instead of treating them like panel lines or they'll look like shit.

No, wait, you aren't painting this at all, are you? Huh...

Well, hang in there!

How did you paint the eye in? Also, where did you order it from? I've been looking everywhere for a Ritter, and have only seen them online, but Amazon keeps saying it won't ship out till May, which seems weird.

Also, is that your purse?

>>14116427

That's a satchel, you silly goose.

I'm too lazy to snap a pic right now, but I started on the HG Turn A just a bit ago.

I'm in love with the chest. It looks hella tight. Aaaand I'm getting better at sharpening and sanding down those V-fins each time I do a new one.

>>14116427
The Ritter is in stock at hlj.

Is the HGUC Kshatriya a good model? I'm debating whether to buy it or not.

so I've been snap building kits until now and I've decided that I want to paint them now, I've read the basics on painting from the guide but I just want to know one thing, how many paint brush should I have on hand? would 5 be enough? I know most people use airbrush but I have to go with paint brush because reasons

Built the Crossbone Full Cloth MG it looks cool as hell

But damn it's gonna need some extra work especially on that Peacock Smasher slot and elbow joint

You don't need a utility belt full of brushes. Quality over quantity man.

>>14115463
I get you man. Pretty sure i own atleast 70% of gunpla in my country.

Anyone got a blank lineart for Rebake? I can't find one in the linaeart links.

>>14116555
Open your eyes for the next Faiz!

>>14116555
There's rumors that the RE/100 is coming out this year. I don't want to wait for it so I'm buying the Gundam Bellpepper

>>14114957
It saddens me to have to order online. But it's true, brick and mortar shops are expensive.

>>14116555
Size wise its impressive. Its got a bit of weight to it because of the binders. Everything holds in place fairly well. The arms pivot way up where the binders connect. No opening of the funnel housing like in the other figures or the Kshatriya Repair. Make sure you have a 1/100 stand for it, and lots of shelf space, because when it opens up, it opens wide. Great kit overall, even with the weird arms.

>>14114419
It was the Ez-8, 8-9 years ago. I put it together, even painted it with Gundam markers and now its gone.

>>14113925
Derp I am retarded.

Looks like a Dom of some sort from the legs. Backpack is the Gundam X Maoh.

>>14116790
But the Gundam X Moah didn't exist when Reanimation was printed!

ughhhhhhhhh

Someone convince me that the HG DM Exia is worth it.

>>14116896
Think of all the light vs edgy poses you can make.

It might be best to hold off a while though.

>>14116896
Repaint the gunmetal armor bits white, and the purple bits gold. A holy knight counterpart to the dark knight.

>>14116820
>>14116825
I know it wasn't released then but it really does look like the X Maoh's X-form solar panels.

>>14116896
Fuck that shade of red looks so much more sexy than what comes with the model.

>>14116924
One of my goals is to make the kit accurate to these colors.

It's quite hard yo discern these colors though. I feel lile it's maroon, pink, and violet.

>>14116896
Not even the RG can pose with this much sass

where's a good place to get a gn archer? i see it's restocking but i know hlj prob has a million and one orders for it.
also when is tom sending out the architect?

unicorn for me personally

great kit btw, lots of fun accessories

I hope to build a nice one next year when projects are over

>>14116126
I heard the G-Self was a really lackluster kit.

It's the only thing that's keeping me from grabbing one.

>page 8
Someone's making the new thread, right? Before you know who goes and shits up the board again.

Anyone built the stylet frame arms girl or the gourai? Anything to be extra careful with on these kits?

Just got done painting the underwear black, not sure if I will do much more to it beyond building

Static i guess

It's been so long since I've been to these threads. Is the shit poster gone?
