Has anybody kitbashed older models like Stylet and Gourai with Materias? if so, how was the result?

>>6286713
Not sure what you think the result should be, because you can just straight up switch out limbs and heads.

How many faceplates/pieces can 8 oz of epoxy resin get for me?

How hard is it to do DIY carving on a resin casted face and resculpt to do the mouth like pic related?

>>6287643
Mostly depends on the kind of resin.

>>6287643
It might be far easier to remove a chunk of the mouth area from the resin cast instead, fill it with clay and then sculpt that.

>>6287643
>>6287655

What do you guys think instead of carving... I fill the lower face with clay and reverse-sculpt by building up, carving and sanding down the clay around the outline of the mouth shape I want?

>>6287643
>>6287679
If I would do it (IF), I would start by making a putty copy first. Working with putty is easy as fuck. Once satisfed I would make a mold and finally cast the result with resin.

Sadly, PG would still be too small to climb into at that scale. The pilot figures for those are only about the height of a quarter. Even Megasized would be too small. You would need something like the HY2M 1/12 gundam.

the only fag that i have, i'm poor for now

I've been a fan of the designs of a lot of the frame arm stuff, but I'm broke as fuck and can't afford to get any. Would the upcoming hexa gear governor light armor type be a good starting point to get into this stuff?

>>6288609
No one can review them because they aren't out yet. I would warn you though that its most likely a lot smaller than you're thinking it is (1/24 scale, dude is going to be like the size of a box of tic-tacs).

>>6288483
2x Exceed Binder, 2x Energy Shield, 2x Unite Sword, 2x Missile & Radome, 1x Free Style Shield, at least one Flexible Arm A and at least one Flexible Arm B. The sword is made using a handle from a Unite Sword, the guard is a thruster from a Propellant Tank Round, the blade is from a Mega Slash Edge, and I don't know what the piece that fits the blade to the guard is from.

No problem. Here's another image with the shield unfurled. You're going to use the weird double-clip joints from the Flexible Arm A to make the way the panels fold into the shield.

>>6290808
Ah, and the one thing I haven't been able to figure out is the spinal column. The creator is @fortresshum, who's got a lot of pics of various Jinrai expansion packs including some that show the structure he uses. See if you can figure out where the parts come from and tell me if you get it.

So I found out Jinrai's short ponytail peg breaks easily so I'm stuck using the long ponytail's peg. How difficult is it to get a replacement sprue especially if I'm staying in Japan for another 5 more days?

>>6290203

Red Baselard's MSRP was around 9k yen to begin with.

>>6290929
Your choice is to run to the nearest Yellow Submarine shop, or to go to one of them Kotobukiya shops with the replacement order slip you get with the manual.

The former is more forgiving but you have to scour and hunt.

Hope you can speak Japanese.

This is fucking insanity. I was trying to repose my megami device but the fucking back should piece came off and I couldn't put it back in, so I removed the head to have some more clearance.

As I removed the head piece, the entire fucking helmet assembly just disintegrated in my hands. The little black earpiece on the right side of the helmet just fucking disappeared into NOTHING. I'm unbelievable furious right now. This entire kit is fucking incomplete because of that one little shit piece, I can't believe how ridiculously flimsy this kit is that it just fucking crumbles like that. Even that hand just fell off right now.

I'm mad as hell, this shit little piece is nowhere to be found.

The kits are more fragile than action figures but that still sounds like tard strength hamhanding

>>6291085
>>6291082
You guys keep saying that, Ill laugh when you post that some piece disintegrated on your fag/md.

>>6291082
-superglue small pieces that might come off and get lost, as long as it doesn't reduce customizing
-test articulation during the build. Plastic joints that get stuck should be lightly sanded to avoid breaking when reposing them.
-polycaps that are too loose can get tightened slightly by heating them with a hairdryer, and making the piece that connects to them thicker with clear acrylic/superglue
-make sure all pieces are tightly joined together, don't be afraid to use a bit of force

Other than that there's not much you can do short of customizing to add different joints. If there's really an issue with some part of the kit there's a chance Koto will release an updated version that fixes it. That's what I'm hoping will happen with the crotch joint in the first gen MDs

Architect comes with two of the Impact Knuckle weapons(and the impact edge parts as well I think). But the knuckle is a closed fist with partial articulation.

The Overed Manipulator is the large open hand with individually articulated fingers. They're still in the works.

That anon may be confused because one of the promo pics for the Overed Manipulator is of it replacing the Impact Knuckle hand on Architect. The Knuckle doesn't have a 3mm peg, though, so there must be some sort of adapter part included.

And yeah, she comes with the Edge parts too, as well as the piledriver parts that both Knuckle and Edge come with.

Damn nigs, the shoulders and the articulated toes really put these above and beyond.

The hands need to have the opening around the balljoint recut to give them a decent range of movement and thus enough expressivity though.

And I'd really like them to have more polycaps to make posing less of a hassle. Shit used to be great with Shinkis, so I'm more than willing to throw money at'em until they're on that level again.

Worse than Gunpla, their polycaps make a helluva difference, but I gather that figmas have issues with standing on their own across the board, so probably better than those. Everything's kinda stiff and creaks whenever you move it, as you'd expect it from plastic-on-plastic connections. No way for them to fix that without redoing a couple of parts though. Like the shoulders would have to become two-parts for the poly nub system used on shinkis actually to work for these.

They pose more stable than my Assault Lillies at least. I mean, those can stand, but they tend to fall over spontaneously after a while and they have a real hard time holding more creative poses as well.

I just got Altines and I love her to death but does anyone else find her armored skirt and two bigger arms a bit fiddly? She can still pull off good poses but the clear red bits seem to fall off more than I'd like. Also had to *gasp* take her lower body apart because her waist pegs weren't fully inserted.

Is Baselard the only model with the hair molded to have those sharp and stiff peaks for the hair clumps?

For anyone curious, the bonus hair piece of Baselard comes molded in a cheapo-plastic-pink color, like some of them cheapo bootleg Chinese toys.

You could also say it's "highlighter pink" or some kind of really intense magenta in person.

The way I see it, I have to repaint it to a less intense color like a strawberry or pastel pink or push the color closer to fuschia.

>>6293829

The anime has her using it as a huge chakram, a hula-hoop, then breaking it in two to use as a pair of Shotels.

It's certainly impractical, but it's really cool in action. The fact that she pitches it with Captain America-like accuracy doesn't hurt.

>>6294074
I guess so, but it doesn't matter all that much now. I'm thinking of puttying up the tab ports and magnetizing them, so I can soften up the colors.
Plus articulating the bunny antennae at the front headpiece.

ie, place magnets on the inside part of the head and hope the magnetism is strong enough to not just reach the other side but hold the parts down?

Should I do double magnets for the headpiece to head connections on front and back of the head, or simply make one side magnet and the connecting headpiece the metal plate. Or the opposite?

Plan later on is to be able to mix and match Hres and Stylet parts. Futureproofing, you know?

it works! oh sweet hallelujah.
one of the more complex molds I've put together.
so the mold has some special characteristics to work.

baby powder, syringe injected, initially the top 2 ports are sealed and the back pegs and slot have one way sealed valves to allow resin to pass, then once they release resin, I unblock the top ports and allow the top to fill resulting in a perfect cast.

this has got to be one of the most complex mold, more than with shinkies.

>>6294402
that's with rubber bands. I'm injecting the resin with quite a bit of pressure to drive the resin into the back slots.

thinking of inserting metal wires into the mold before casting to further strengthen them. I'll give it a try tomorrow.

>>6294365
>>6294370
Are you the same recaster that comes back every so often to dispense advice? I found this blogpost about hollow casting and I thought it could simplify your problems about fine details in casts.

https://davidneat.wordpress.com/tag/how-to-make-hollow-casts-in-resin/

On tsuki-board I saw a recaster that was using silicone _putty_ for the molds instead of silicone rubber. That person wasn't using the resin casts as-is (with pigments etc) but sanded, puttied, primed and painted though.

If I use silicone rubber for casting custom hair pieces, how's the Oomoo 25? (25 on Shore A hardness scale)

It _seems_ alright to use silicone putty for a small scale project, I'm not completely willing to dive into resin casting since the timesink not only looks expensive but seems like an entire hobby in itself?

>>6294205
>brown Gundam marker
>bare plastic

The lacquer solvent in the marker chemical burned into the plastic, you ain't getting out that paint.

>>6294365
>>6294370
Can you post pics over in customs general showing the mold halves? Great work, btw.

>>6294435
thanks for the suggestion.

silicone putty is really horrible. I highly recommend against purchasing it for anything ever. whatever you might use silicone putty for, can be done better with oyumaru. The oyumaru flows much better therefore fills small details better. it's also reusable.

oomoo 25 would work well for custom hair pieces. there's more flex in the mold so you can extract hair pieces more easily, but just be very careful since 25 is more prone to tears. best to coat the inside with baby powder or some releasing agent.

if you just want to give casting a try, you can do so with oyumaru and the white alumilite resin or any white type of resin so you can dye your pieces more easily. clear resin is nice too, but the amount of dye you need to make clear resin opaque results in soft casts.

>>6294532
to add, I'm currently using oomoo 30, but it's pretty soft and weak. small pieces can get torn off when demolding, so I embed string in my molds. if a piece gets torn, the string holds it in place and I just glue the pieces together with a bit of leftover oomoo. this method lets me repair molds pretty easily since these pieces are so small I can't just stick the originals back into the mold due to air trapping.
