Jim, Zack although that one is just a simple retooling of the Origin mold, and then maybe Destiny? I don't really care about whats getting revived as long as the model comes out decent and the list keeps moving.
I'm holding my breath for the RG Wing boys and RG 00 boys, though.

Anyone ever feel like there's some kind of oily substance on your kit when you first get it? Airbrush told me they use some kind of spray to help the molds pop out or keep them from sticking. I feel like some of that was on this Hi-Zack I built...

Amazing Binder, Portent Flyer, and the Kurenai weapon set are all readily available on amazon, I'm sure the state of the shelves back in Japan are about the same.
That leaves.. the Lightning backpacks that got reprinted was it last month or the month before? Then there's the powered powereder, in a similar state?
They really didn't leave that much out, as far as I can tell.

1/20 Scopedog restock fucking when?

>>14435135
July.

So except from the FAGs are there any other mecha girl plamo kits out there???

>>14435237
the new desktop army series, but the horizon is pretty bleak for mecha musume in general.
There's the armor girls project but those are closer to figures.

I'd suggest a gravity-fed, internal-mix double action airbrush (gravity fed meaning it feeds from a reservoir in the top, which is less prone to feed problems when there's little paint in the reservoir; internal-mix because it gives a more even result; and double action because you can adjust both the pressure and the width of the spray pattern on the fly), and not worry about getting an expensive model until you've learned how to handle the "cheap" version. (Note that a cheap starter kit with an airbrush and compressor runs about $200 US, and the compressor will be terrible. *Good* hardware runs in the $300 US range for the compressor alone, and the same again for the air brush - I suggest changing the compressor before the brush though as even a cheap airbrush with a good compressor is better than an expensive airbrush with a cheap compressor)

>>14435826
I guess this stuff is actually quite expensive

I think I might have to reconsider

>>14434918
Gelgoog and all variants. ESPECIALLY the Gelgoog Marine.

>>14434918
Goog, GM, Command, and Alex are my top picks but they've all been mentioned. They're all good designs that came out just a little too soon before the technology was ready to handle them. I'd prefer releasing updates of old 1/144 MSVs or even bringing in ones that have never had a release before.

Also, if they don't want to risk money on a kit, why not sell a cheap 1 runner conversion kit? It can't be that difficult and you can still jew it for 7-8 bucks. Is it simply because they can't release a full kit of that design at a later point? I'm a huge MSV fan and I'd love if they released, for example, just the torso and backpack for GM Cannon.

>>14435838
You honestly don't need to spend 200$ if you are just starting to airbrush. This is a pretty cheap starter kit that I used when i first started https://www.amazon.com/Master-Airbrush-Multi-purpose-Dual-action-Compressor/dp/B001TO578Q/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1467421805&sr=8-3&keywords=master+airbrush

Not the actual "Victory" model type, but other mobile suits from that series. I don't think I have ever seen any posted here before.

Question for my airbrush people.
Most people use a harsher liquid for cleaning their AB like hardware store lacquer thinner. After you use that do you use something else to flush the airbrush to make sure none of that harsh stuff is lingering and interacts with your paint? And if so what do you use, or do you find it to not be a problem?

>>14436122
Abe is top-tier taste, anon

>>14436122
>Gun-EZ
You mean the Cancer-Easy

>>14436079

The only stuff I have from Victory Gundam are three HGUC V2s (currently done up as one Assault, one Buster, and one Assault Buster).

The V2 - even the slightly overscale HGUC version - is hilarious to pose next to some of the other suits I have, as my collection leans towards the larger end of the spectrum. S, Ex-S, all the Unicorns in Destroy mode, Nu, Hi-Nu, Sazabi... all of these 20+ meter suits, and there's this *midget* of a suit that barely reaches crotch height on most of them, and it can wipe the floor with all of them at the same time...

>>14436249

I've never used anything stronger than 96% denatured alcohol (I only use acrylics for airbrushing, and this washes them right off), and at that strength the alcohol left in the airbrush evaporates in seconds.

Hmmm, thanks for the feedback.

Yeah they do seem rarer than other gunpla sets. It's too bad since some of them look pretty interesting when given a lot of attention and detail.

Once I get my hands on some simpler sets and have more experience I will try some Victory sets myself. Thanks.

Here is another image (not mine) for your pleasures.

>>14436321
There's someone on ebay selling a few 1/144 Victory sets, I like how some comes with stands and cards for backgrounds

What are the other kits that got rereleased recently like hydra gundam? I can't remember their names, just that they're a bitch to find. I bought one off of amazon for about 50 dollars two years ago for a friend because it was the cheapest available and it was apparently his favorite. The hobby shop across the street is now selling one for ten.
A shame try didn't print any of the better kits like that kitbash of hydra, nataku and whatever else or the super xamel.

Should I display my MG Unicorn in Destroy or Unicorn mode? I actually like Unicorn mode much more, but it feels like it'd be a bit of a waste to not have it as a Gundam, and it was a bitch and a half to actually transform it into a Gundam the first time around

Backpacks uhhhh finds a way

>>14436828

Unicorn mode is definitely more stable, and less prone to shedding parts. The beam sabers on mine aren't held in place on their pegs by anything, the arm panels (which you connect the shield to...) fall off, and the psychoframe in the knees won't lock into place, so overall the kit is terrible for posing, or at least mine is. In Unicorn mode this doesn't matter as much because the parts in question are hidden or held in place by other parts, but in Destroy mode... argh!

Still keeping mine in Destroy mode though, for basically the same reason you mentioned - it's a bitch to transform and I don't want to do it too much and risk breaking stuff as happened on my VF-25s.

Vrabe would probably fit the Duraxyll's aesthetic better, but there's no lineart for it.

>>14436748

For plain early-mid UC thruster power, check out the Sinanju and Sazabi, as they have thrusters literally out the ass.

00 also has some wild possibilities for combining stuff - stick two Quanta shields on the backpack of the 00, and it'll have twelve sword bits plus the two swords; or you can swap the arms of the 1.5 Gundam for the arms of the Reborns, and have three GN Drives.

Then there's the Voiture Lumiere from the V2 Gundam, or the ludicrously huge boosters on the Ex-S...

>>14437038
I'm thinking of a cheaper kit that has a lot of actual thrusters. I'd like to avoid 00 wankery, and I don't want them to be too big either. Even though they're pricey I think a thunderbolt kit might work for what I'm looking for, especially with those really long thin ones. Although I think those are tanks on some mobile suits?

A cheap compressor of the type you get with the rock bottom starter sets doesn't have a tank, it feeds directly to the airbrush and the only pressure vessel is the hose.

I have one of these, that I got for free from a friend that upgraded, and it sucks rocks, but it's all I've got and all I can afford because disposable income and I are words that don't go together.

>>14439954

>not really an explosion but cheap compressors do fail
I could understand shorts and burning, but explosions seems a bit over the top, especially for small motors like the ones we use for airbrushing.

>>14440263
Not him but is there anything wrong with using a 'shop compressor', it has a water trap and a regulator installed, and I have a secondary water trap on my airbrush just to be sure.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVP_A7eGYxw

>>14440286

how fine is the adjustment on the regulator

that's the major concern

>>14440306

that's a tank failure though, and at a much higher pressure than a hobby compressor

and the tank was clearly kept outside and rusted

>>14440328
I was able to get it to about 15PSI according to the gauge, if that's the only problem I could just get a more precise regulator if it's ever an issue.

I think you would be ok with most paints then

really "hot" paints (like high solvent content true laquers) such as alclad metals might be tough though because they can go fast and the effect depends a lot on your air control

These >>14440029 make me want to work on a new weapon on the side while I finish mr. origin

What are some cool weapon designs? Any that haven't had models?

I'll probably end up making some up but I'm interested in seeing what people consider their favorite weapons.

>>14440424
>What are some cool weapon designs? Any that haven't had models?
Have you checked some of G-Reco's designs? Most of the weapons like bazookas or guns seem cool and easy to do.

>>14440149
But then, a cheap compressor with a tank gives the same results as an expensive compressor with a tank, Yes?

>>14440424
Is that the GM rifle from a couple weeks/months ago?

>>14440424
Claw weapons are always cool. Or armored powerfists.

>>14440445

only difference would be how long it lasts and how noisy it is basically yeah

I have a Paasche D3000R that is great, I have my connections taped and I literally leave it on all the time because the tank just stays topped and it doesn't leak, so I can just start painting any time. I haven't turned it off in probably 5 months. I would never go back to a tankless compressor at this point, there are too many advantages.

>>14440451

yeah I have until January for that project so I've been focusing on the origin kit but I finished the optics. Like how the barrels can swap out, I made the connection for the longer rifle scope able to snap into the top of the smaller optic.

No? Look at the Kotobukiya kits. Hell, even Max Factory's own Dougram kits had better color separation than this half-assed effort, and they were even smaller and cheaper to boot.

This does not bode well for their upcoming Pacific Rim kits.

>>14441649

Look at that Dougram kit which is all fucking flat slabs and shit and then look at Chamber. How would you make that kit without a ton of decals? You can't.

Kotobukiya's kits require tons of detail painting and even then they've gotten better because they prepaint things for you while in the past you just had to do it on your own.

You fail to understand how far plamo has come. If you were a military fag you would have to deal with kits that are all one color, and come with nothing, and don't even have pegs. Chamber is a respectable effort considering the design.

Don't have a pic of just the weapon, but my favorite is the GN Sword III.

One thing I love about the design direction of Gundam 00 as a whole, is how everything looks futuristic while still maintaining a believable mechanical and technological look.
I'm not really sure how to articulate this better, but for comparison, most UC designs (to my eyes, at least) look very mechanical and functional, but not exactly futuristic. They look more or less similar to present-day tech.

>>14442660

GN Sword 1 is my favorite. GN Sword III would be it, if it didn't have the glowing green edge.

>>14442314

Mostly thick beams for this to form the core, I have a good sized selection of styrene sizes though. Either way would have worked. This will pretty much all be covered anyway.

>>14436666
I'm considering that game but I assume that there's no free mode where you can customize as much as you want? I assume all designs you can make have to be balanced somehow with what you can attach.

>>14437457
The Impulse torso? Yeah, bit of a bitch. That's the problem with gimmicky MG designs, hard to get them stable and agile sometimes.

Hey /gpg/ Been nice and busy working on a lot of stuff, and I just started my RG 00Russer, which is the second in a 3 part little project I'm working on. Now, I've run int a little snag. I lost two of the stickers that make little L-shapes on the knees.

Now, due to my autism, I went out and bought some blue paint to try to redo the L-shapes, since I can't access my other paints, and I think I managed to match it well, but what do you think? Should I paint the other leg, or does the paint not clash with the colors of the stickers? The paint is on the right leg, and not the left, the left is just purely stickers.

>>14444624
It's a bit inconvenient, but the site does update when the release date comes closer, so eventually "Month/Timeframe" becomes "Month/Day." For example, the 1/10 Megaman reprint was listed as "Late December" originally, then as the month went on it was specified as "December 24." It'd still be even nicer if we knew the date at the start of the month like we do with Bandai, but on the other hand they show the previous month's release dates on the same page..

Honestly, even just knowing the timeframe is good enough for me.

I'm painting up a Hazel to practice hand-painting an entire model, and I can't decide what to use as my second main colour. For reference the blue/teal is Vallejo's metallic Gunmetal Blue, it's a bit darker than in pic related most of the time. I think the white body looks better, but the prospect of handpainting that much white makes me sad as I only have grey primer on hand. The dark body would probably be Citadel's Dark Reaper.

Thoughts appreciated, especially if you think a different secondary colour would work better.

Oh, and the yellow lines are actually gold.

the closest thing Bandai has ever released of that thing is P-Bandai variants of the high performance Jegans from F91.

>>14444201
It seems to me that the color of the L's are very slightly off, but they do match well (and it might be due to lighting. If the color IS off though (you'll have to be the judge of that) simply painting the other L's will fix it as it doesn't seem to clash with the other stickers at all.

Where do I go if Mech9 doesn't have the translated color guide? I have an Origin 78-02 I want to paint and want those tiny subtle differences from say the Revive.

grey or black panel lines for turn x?

>>14445186
Black

>>14445076
Yeah, it's a tad bit lighter than the sticker L's, but I was more concerned with how they seem with the smaller blue stickers, like the cautions and triangles. I can and will do the other L's (since they're pretty easy to mask and do), it's more the smaller ones that I was unsure of. If that's the case, then I won't fuss too much.

>>14445186
I'd go grey, but I say test out how much the black sticks out on the main colors, like on the runners. Like test it out on the part that tells you what runner it is. Usually next to the letter it has some words that stick out, so you could try test panel lining on that? See which ever tickles your fancy, but typically the unanimous answer in these threads is grey.

>>14445060
Yeah, that was this one.

I won't buy it though, I want a collection that show the evolution of the line and the two victory gm are better for that I think.

Now that I think about it, is there a figure of the heavygun? Probably not I guess.

>>14445242
Not modern HGUCs, no.

theres a 1/100 NG from the original F91 kit line but its ancient and derpy as hell. the 1/100 NG Hardygun from SF91 is a little bit better but they are both over 20 years old and pretty hard to find now.

I did the opposite, I built a custom I already made in game

Now that is one shit marker.

The white looks way better IMO

>>14445795
Did you actually paint right on it? You're supposed to mix the paint, then let it out into a small tin or pallette, and use a brush to apply it.

What's the release date for the Koto LED beam sabers?

Hold your horses, how about an HGUC first? Same goes for Windam and the Virgos. I'd rather see the 1 Gundam or 1.5 Gundam or whatever it's called rather than Reborns. Whichever one doesn't have the Guncannon backpack.

>>14446059
Then why does it have a marker tip??

I know the brush method gives better results but why not just buy paint at this point?

What do you think, everybody?

>>14446948
looks like piss on the edge of a toilet seat.

Hey /m/, I just started building and picked up a Grimgerde first, and I was wondering if you guys could offer any advice;

It keeps coming apart at the waist, because the polycap for the joint seems to be too big to fit inside the crotch; no amount of shaving or force seems to help. What should I do?

>>14447108

It's supposed to be a really tight fit to really snap in there... if it's falling out it's because you shaved too much and now it's loose.

>>14434930
yes, i translated the nouhin the other day but no-one updated the OP with it

>>14447113
Well fuck; it still seems like it won't go in all the way period, not that it's too lose.

>>14447135
This is probably my only chance.

>>14447153

Wtf are you doing... you just push the ball into the peg. You have to push hard, but it's doable. The only thing I can think of is you fucked up when de-nubbing the peg somehow and squashed it.

>>14447167
That's why I'm so confused; it looks like it should fit totally fine, but force doesn't do anything- there's no pop, and the waist just falls apart. At this point, I've tried more force than even makes sense.

Anyone have info on the rg GPO1 full burnen gundam? Is it always a little lose on the chest to corefighter connection or am I clicking it in wrong?

>>14447231
>still no MG GP01 2.0

JUST fuck my gunpla up senpai

>>14447240
Times r tuff my friend

>>14447231
I finished building mine. Everything having to do with the body has flimsy connections. Shame since it looks so good. Some say that a flat top coat on the fighter helps create friction for stability. I just plan on gluing it since I only want it in Gundam form.

>>14446948
The shade of yellow is a little strange, try going a bit darker, perhaps. Add a couple more details in gray for contrast too.

>>14447266
Yeh I was thinking about gluing aswell but I may give the flat coat a try first.

I heard somewhere that metallic paints are really hard to work with except the ridiculously expensive ones. Does that mean for metallics I should just go full cans?

It's actually a stupid tumblr meme that spawned into what girlfriend and I ended up called the 00R because of how it sounded like what Mona calls her dog in Nanalan. It's all because of this picture I made a year ago.

Proof requested, I didn't know wo/m/en existed.

>>14447581

I don't get /m/ backlogs, I build everything as soon as I can open the box... poor impulse control is me.

>>14447667
I buy them in shipments mostly, so bar unexpected additions I usually have about four-five kits on hand at a time.

>>14447581
I live in a shitty country, i order a kit and it arrives 3 months later, so i don't get to have a backlog, i just build the kit and when i'm done with it the next one is about to arrive.

Well, I just want a kit of them. Denan Zon only exists as some monocolored piece of shit and Denan Gei is basically a scratchbuild or a resin kit. I want mah Nazi mecha with shotlance.
