You should be OK.
>>
>>6040303
Yea it's a good one. Quick, simple build and a really nice figure when done. Just remember they aren't toys and are more fragile.

>what am I in for meme
>asking how something is after you spend money on it
>>
>>6040303
Yeah you're gonna be fine. The Gundam Revive is a very solid kit all around. The wrist pegs can be annoyingly loose at times but otherwise it's pretty nice- very posable and very easy to build.
>>
>>6040256
depends on what you have to work with like clippers, exactos, sanding paper, glue shit like that. Just dont rush it or itll look terrible trust me. Sit down turn on some music or a movie and start building.
>>
>>6040303
You did good, anon. Enjoy your new hobby.
>>
>>6040256
You're in for use the god damn catalog to find the existing Gunpla thread, newfag.

He has a fucking build video on that very kit. You should know exactly what to expect
>>
>>6040306
The fact that people like this guy at all perplexes me. People sure do have shit taste.

I like him :)

I also Just started doing this nonsense.
I built a LM HG Eva Unit 01 from NGE and then the Perfect Grade Unit 01.

Seems pretty straightforward. Look up some guides, shell out for the right equipment (Plastic cement, fine grit sand papers, etc) and take your time and it should be good.

Remember, you bought a model kit and not a figure for a reason. Have fun with the process.

Welcome to your new addiction.

Get some hobby tools, and learn how to panel line. Your first kit might look shitty, but you'll notice progress once you build a few.
>>
>>6045715
Not OP but what is it with people always looking down on those who don't paint their kits. I got a RGM Cold Districts Figure and love how clean it looks. All those years of Hasbro Star Wars actionfigures with shitty battle damage paintjobs turned me off of that kind of unnecessary detail.
They even have an extremely obvious camouflage pattern on the Metal Gear model kit that is barely visible in the game model.
>>
>>6044266
He's alright. Going a little crazy with memes though.
>>
>>6045991
Ignore them, I used to paint every kit I build but now it's just too tedious for me.
