Does it matter what order i do a reverse wash in?

>>15310686
I think you use the color for the emblem or whatever, mask that, then the color for the rest.

>>15310693
dont bother answering a question you dont know about

>>15310723
Oh, I'm so sorry. I'll just leave it to the dozens of other posters who've helped out so far.

>>15310686
let me rephrase my question, does it matter if you use an arcylic or enamel as your raised parts or fill parts?

>>15310686
>>15310736
the "usual" way for reverse wash is using acrylic or laquer (laquer is preferred) for the raised parts (ex" gold for sinanju). you then do a coat of what you "fill" the parts with (ex" black for sinanju) with enamel. after drying a bit, you use lighter fluid or something similar to rub off the enamel paint, leaving you with the color underneath

>>15310749
adding on to the point, its usually done with airbrush for the coats and do a clear gloss coat inbetween so you dont accidently rub off the coating underneath

i might sound crazy, but i think gundam age-1 seems like a good fit. the slim shoulders and the slight curvatures of the arms work very well. the legs seem bulky enough and since they're flat, you can bulk them out even more. unless its an armored version of x, jesta seems way too bulky and x always had slim curvature to his design(to me at least). the only problem is translating megamans x face to a gundam face, but modifacations may work.

tldr; i think age-1 is closer

>>15310902
Ah that sucks, someone said FZ P-bandai and I immediately thought of an MG to go along with the new Sniper II.

Asked is the previous thread, what kind of paint i should buy to start painting my adult toys ? Also is it only for details or i can paint big parts like the one that should already be colored instead of having ugly stickers (t. Bandai™)

>>15310073
In response to the sprays and space, I get that. But for hand paints the only thing you need for nice, even coverage of large areas is a primed part (helps paint stick easily) and a page flat brush to get much of the part. Layering and doing perpendicular angles each layer (first up to down and then left to right) hides the brush marks. It might take a few practice parts and learning paint ratios but a well done paintjob makes a lot of difference.

>>15311045
You're intended to paint the entire thing. There's some helpful stuff in the guide that might answer questions before you have to ask them.

>>15311045
read the guide
search youtube

>>15311045

I would recommend reading the guide. It breaks down a lot of the different paints.

What's the most overrated and underrated kit?

Pic possibly related?

>>15311045
for small details, any "hobby" paints should do the job, like testors, tamiya, and mr colors. for big parts, i personally recommend vajellos cause thats what i use, but use primer if you are painting large areas first. but to replace stickers, primer shouldnt be necessary

>>15311078
Gelgoogs as a whole. Not because of movement or fancy detail, but because their design is great and don't see enough love. Not a single Gelgoog custom model in GBF, for example, but there was a Zaku, Gouf, Dom, Kampfer. And it's not that the mold was too old, since the Qubeley Papillon and Build Mk 2 used older frames than the newest Gelgoog in HG scale. Maybe the Revive or Origin lines will feature new ones.

>>15311078
From the last thread:

Going to have to throw in another ticket at a Ver Ka for being overrated- the Nu. Especially since I have both it and the original MG from 2000.

It's a kit that's two steps forward, and one step back. It's so bloated with unnecessary gimmicks and poor design choices and feels like a rag doll compared to most other MGs, and it barely poses any better than the old Nu despite all the delicate new joints. The older MG which is one of the most solid kits Bandai has ever made, period. If it had better proportions and the same funnel display stand as the ver Ka, I would easily crown it as the better kit.

And for such an updated kit with high level of parts separation, Bandai couldn't even make the rear head camera separate clear piece and had to reply on stickers? Really? And the worst part about the Nu ver Ka- ALL the crucial joints still use polycaps. Why a 2012 kit is using practices from kits in the early 90s is beyond me, especially when the old Nu uses solid ABS on ABS and even motherfucking screws.

As for underrated kits, all the aquatic MS MG's, and the G04/G05 duo. The aquatic MS are all large and uniquely engineered, while the G-duo are cheap, look great, and come with some of the best accessories of any MG.

>>15311078
Underrated? I say the 3.0. Everyone here recommends the Origin, but I always say to those who ask for what version of the OG Gundam, get the 3.0.

>>15311098
I like the reds on the 3.0 much more than the ones on the origin. The way the torso is sleeker is more appealing to me too

>>15311064
>>15311065
>>15311067
Nice, im reading it, usually you do the painting before building the kit or after ?
>>15311059
I will probably do some testings on my Buster Gundam (its an old ass kit anyway)

>>15311124

Some people paint on the runners, but I prefer to get everything test-fitted and cleaned up before I start painting

>>15311124
Painting tightens joints and pegs, if you want to build it first you can see what areas need to be sanded down to accommodate the paint.

anon please

>>15311124
Anon who mentioned the brush, I meant large flat brush, my phone autocorrected.

As for building process what you can do is slightly cut the connecting pegs before assembly so the parts slide apart more easily. Let's you test fit and seperate as needed. If you are painting you will want to cement certain parts with seams together and fill those seams with putty, as without that the model will look very poorly done. The cut pegs won't end up mattering as much if you're cementing things since it will have a tight bond because of the fused plastic, so don't worry, but don't cut too much or else they won't slot in at all.

>Underrated
MG Ground GM. Nice accessories, solid build, decent articulation.

>>15311606
it's fragile as fuck and it's not worth the price tag since it's double the cost of the x1 and has the same issues.

>>15311078
I haven't built mine yet, but it feels like the Build Strike gets nowhere near the amount of love that it should. I don;t know, maybe it is a subpar kit, but it looks fucking bitching and I cannot wait to build mine.

>>15311635
MG if that wasn't obvious.

RG as well now that I think about it.

>>15311635
I'm guessing the reason it doesn't seem like it gets much love is because it's based off of the strike 2.0 frame which is a well loved one. several kits have it so it's kind of pointless to discuss something we all know is good. it's like saying the mg zaku 2.0 frame is great but claiming johnny ridden's zaku gets no love even though it's the same frame.

You haven't pull out the pin yet.

>>15311760
If they're All Gundam Project-compliant joints (ball-and-socket shoulders, peg biceps, peg thighs), you should be good. Backpacks will take a bit more doing since IIRC none of the Builders Parts/HGBC/HG Customize Campaign adaptors out there specifically address IBO backpack port spacing yet.

So I'm on the fence about purchasing the new MG Freedom 2.0. I haven't even seen the part of SEED it's in, I've only watched the first like 10 episodes or so before I realized I didn't like it, but goddamn the Freedom is a sexy mobile suit. My Barnes and Nobel has it in and I'm tempted, how's the build? Are the wings a bitch to assemble?

>>15312233
Why do you have to watch the series to get the suit?

It's a solid kit, no loose joints. The problem most people have with the kit is the hip joints and how the instructions make you connect the legs in an awkward manner.

>>15312249
>Why do you have to watch the series to get the suit?

I don't, just seems a little awkward for some reason. Like forgetting someone's name and being past the point where you can ask them.

>>15311260
For me it's not because of normies, hell, I have a whole wall of anime posters, it's just that I have certain aesthetic sensibilities and every surface filled to the brim with gundams do not align with those. I want all my models to have breathing room and an interesting pose that make them stand out as their own piece, but I also want to keep building and painting.
Maybe at some point I'll just start giving away completed models to family and friends.

>>15311615
I like the look of it, but I still don't like the redesigned rifle they used. It was bad on the freedom 2.0.

So, I broke a the part on the backpack of my RX-78-02 The Origin that holds the right beam saber. it fell over and the saber handle caught on something and snapped the peg right off. I tried using tweezers to try to pry the peg out of the handle but it just ended up making it worse. Now I noticed that I have one of those nifty Bluefin caution labels on the box. I got the kit as a gift but my brother, who got it for me, kept the receipts for all the gifts he gave out this year so I have that as well. Now does Bluefin still provide replacement parts if I send them a picture of the broken parts, the original receipt from where he bought it, and the Bluefin sticker and UPC, will they still send me replacement parts? I tried looking it up online but I could only get results from a few years ago, what else I can find seems to indicate they'll help me. I live in the US by the way.

i honestly dont know if anyone has tried to do reverse wash by handpainting the coats. the coats needs to be as even as possible. if you dont have an airbrush, buying laquer and enamel spray cans. since its an sd, maybe practice hand painting unless you really want to try reverse wash

>>15313124
i guess il try it, il do gold aryclic > future > enamel black, i think il treat it like a panel wash and just remove excess paint in half an hour, also since its just a partial painting il not prime it.

Also does my fill color absolutely have to be glossy? i currently have a flat black enamel and i sorta dont wanna buy another one but in gloss.

nah, its just that enamels are usually glossy. having them flat or glossy is completely up to you

>Buy my gunpla, say hi to her at the cash register and we make a joke about how we've finally met, then I leave
>She never replies to my messages again afterwards

I'm still wondering where I went wrong, we had a grand total of one minute's worth of interaction, what/how did I fuck up? I bought a Gouf. Does she not like Goufs? Does she hate Zeon? Who could hate Zeon? It never stopped bothering me.

I met a gunpla girl at my local hobby shop once. It was like a scene from an anime where we both reached for the same kit at the same time, then apologized to each other and laughed, it was kind of cute but awkward. We talked for a bit about how we had the same taste in kits, but then she tried to reach for the kit again so I grabbed it and walked away fast. I really wanted that GM.
Sometimes I wonder if I did the right thing. Please, tell me I did the right thing and that this crushing loneliness I feel will go away if I build enough gunpla.

Whisper-tan has been a fun experiment. MG Astray blue frame stripped down and then rebuilt to anime girl proportions.

She's become an interesting litmus test. People typically offer one of two observations on her design:

> kek, why don't u give her GN tiddies

or

> Interesting, are you sure you want that head:body proportion?

(I do)

She's super fun but will be difficult to finish.

i dont mind the proportions, a tad smaller would be better though for an "anime girl", but that head looks so out of place in comparison. with something as detailed as the astray frame, you should try do something with the head to make it match

I'd post pics if I had a Gundam or enough of a shape to show. Right now it's just eye-balling for the right texture and I'm waiting on the RD GN-000FA since it seems like the model kit will never be a reality. Probably will pick up the regular GN-000 kit sooner for testing though.

Don't bother. Women don't care about anyone or anything but themselves. Some -SOME- will care about their children, but other than that the only thing that will ever matter to a woman is her status. Everything else is just a facade. It's all a framework to support their ego. To women, men are just dirt to be walked on or stepped over to get to somewhere else.

So that if there's any mold release left on the runners, any paint/topcoat doesn't stick to it rather than the model. It can make a model look splotchy after a topcoat.

I would if I had the time. Maybe once the semester is over. Then again, this happened like two or three years ago. A lot could happen in that time. She could have moved away, gotten a boyfriend, or died or something.

This is all just personal opinion of course! But Super Fumina for example is an underage character and I don't see why guys get excited about mods that emphasize her sexually.

Thanks! I see gunpla sometimes fall along three basic color groups: desaturated colors + grays (military style group), bright saturated glossy colors (sportscar style group), and bright flat primary colors (sell plastic merch style group).

I just needed an accent color closer to Titans blue than the banana yellow original. That helps to set off the complementary reds of warning waterslides and warheads.

It isn't canon but I like this color set well enough!

>>15315974
The green really helps it feel more real and military for obvious reasons, but not overly so. I know I'm also biased my enjoying green as a top colour.

Ever toyed with the idea of making a base display for it? I suppose it's too early to let the Gundam get comfy like that when it's not even done.

The little 'tufts' of fiber optic and green colours are putting thoughts of a hunting themed Gundam in my head. But the thought of a Gundam that literally stores mass amounts of meat during a hunting trip is odd to say the least.

Is the Mk.II still the current best perfect grade out there?

Also, it can wryyyyyyy

How resilient is fully cured acrylic paint on primer? Can I paint joints with acrylics and expect them not to get scratched?

>>15316657

I think acrylic, even fully cured & topcoated, is not as strong as lacquers; I sand down joint parts before painting to create a little tolerance/headroom.

>>15316666

I've been painting parts with a lot of movement with lacquers so far. But sanding a little makes sense.

>>15315583
Yeah, what's so gross about that guy in Try not being able to get Fumina as his girlfriend so he recreates her as an object without free will. Oh wait. That's pretty gross.

How do the lacquers hold up? I've stuck with acrylics so far since they're less fume-y. I bought a finished build (lacquer painted) off someone and the paint is not chipped anywhere I can see except the thumb and waist ball joints. Not even mad about it.

>>15314522
It's okay, she was just trying to charm you so she could snag that GM out of your hands.

>Neo Tokyo OST,
Hello new game and OST, thanks.

>>15316896
No paint is going to withstand joints. Plastic is just too hard. You'd need to like coat it in resin or something to protect it and it'd still wear away over time or scratch.

Otherwise lacquer is very tough. If you accidentally scratch it with your nails you might think it's just like plastic whereas acrylic would come off right away. Of course, it depends on how you scratch it.

I'll level you probably could have gotten the kit too by just talking like a normal person (hell, if you were smooth you could even say you'd make it up with, say, some lunch) instead of going 3000% spaghetti
again this is all hindsight though, don't beat yourself up or anything just don't fuck up next time

I finally finished the astaroth I was working on for a while, I learned a ton about painting from it too. Anyone know why the paint came out with so many bumps?

I don't mind it much for the look of this kit, but I want to know how to prevent it for my next couple of kits. Did I primer it wrong or something?

>>15316937
you can't hide your sideways picture from me I saw the whole thing!
anyways I'm no paint expert but I think wrinkly bumpy paint is a sign you didn't leave enough drying time between coats

>>15316928

Ha! I bought it originally to hold a pre-shaded painted kit in my hands and see how that looks before investing in an airbrushing setup....which I still barely use but anyway. Preshaded stuff looks cartoony to me too, but that's just a personal preference.

I'm more of a Titans colors person but the (Sengoku Astray?) painted build was a useful teacher to me at the time. 8/10 would buy a more-skilled builder's expertise again to learn stuff.

>>15315572
Aesthetically i dont like Robot girls, i find them lame, and really toyish. I prefer real PVC anime girls or real mechas

>>15316937

Anon, we know you painted and primed, what kind of paint? How many layers? How much dry time? Humidity? Spray distance?

>>15316951

Agree, it looks like the newer layer solvent attacked the older layer while still curing and partially ate it?

>>15316970
Like this and other anon said, it could very well be the paints eating into each other if it looks bubbly. Or it is possible the paint started to freeze in the air and just clumped onto the kit. Was it cold when you painted?

Gold and panel lined the Spiegel a little better. Does it look okay?

Also, I noticed a yellow spot I'm going to go back over. This was just a test fit once it was dry to touch.

>>15317019
Hi dalong.

>>15317032
I don't get it

>>15317035
dalong is notorious for using black panel lining on white plastic on all of his kits. black contrasts way too much and thats why people use grey on white

>>15316951
>you can't hide your sideways picture from me
W-What are you talking about??

>>15316970
Testors enamel for the most part, I did two layers with a couple of hours drying in between. The humidity was low that day and I tried to stay at least about 4 inches away from the pieces.

>>15317019
trim the flash off the hands please

>>15317046
Getting around to either that or just buying a set of plastic ones. Do they make replacement hands for 1/100? All I can ever find are 1/144

>>15317044
Ah. Well, I kinda like the anime look for the G gundam kits. They were always a little more cartoons, but I might try it with gray and see if I like it better.

>>15317044
Airbrushed enamel, then? I haven't used enamels. Did you use retarder or flow-aid in your mix?

>>15317052
Meant for >>15317041

>>15317053
Yeah I airbrushed it on, I'm pretty new to it so I didn't add any flow-aid or retarder. I wonder if they even sell those anywhere near me...

>>15317062
I'm stuck in small town murica so I had to get all that airbrushing stuff online or via train to Chicago, which has some nice shops.

Anyway a little goes a long way so get flow aid/retarder/thinner/cleaner/medium as you can.

>>15317134
so flow-aid is similar to thinner? I did thin my paints before airbrushing them on, but I'm not completely sure I got the ratios right. But I'll look into seeing if any stores carry flow-aid and such. Thanks.

>>15315760
How'd it go today?

>>15316541
I love the GP04, is the Gundam MkIII really that much better?

Just how skilled at painting must one be to complete an SD exstandard? im assuming you would have to be pretty dam good.

>>15317019
Thin out those panel lines.

How often does Bandai restock older kits? There's a 90s HG kit I'm thinking about buying, but the prices online are like 3 to 4 times the retail or out of stock.

>>15317365
Eventually.

God damn it, Exia and it's successor mobile suits are sexy but I want more variety in the RG line. Maybe Shining Gundam or a Jegan or GM III.

>>15317536
It is? Are you sure it's not just a p-bandai fuckery like 7swords?

>>15317543
I was referring to Seven Swords. It doesn't look like it's going to be P Bandai though.

Those nifty vents on the head make up for that to me. Box art gives me a SWBF2 vibe too.
