That gold is pretty nice. Also gotta say Chinese kits are coming a long way. I finished the Hemoxian Jiangshi the other week and it the plastic was just as good as Bandai's, but their gold was WAY better than anything Koto or Bandai have given.

Got the body assembled for my Nu Ver Ka with metal frame. Still have the backpack, funnels, and weapons yet. There's a lot of cleanup to do and a lot of loose parts to tighten as well. This has been somewhat nightmarish to assemble, but I largely blame the metal frame I think. I bought replacement hands, though I might still try to salvage the old ones. What I want to know is why they thought it was a good idea to have the back skirts be so close to the body while also being above the torso horizon so that when you twist the hip, the back skirt immediately pops off.

the backpack is pretty interesting with the LED gimmick to simulate the active trusters, although one of the 2 the kit came with was short-circuiting so I had to use a bit of aluminum paper for the battery to properly make contact

it is exactly the same as the one of the original Hyakushiki but this thing can't even fully extend the arm to simulate a firing pose like in >>11563196 because the bulky shoulders collide with the cylinder things of the backpack where the LEDs are located, thus mobility is already hindered, it will be even worse with the FA

I know some people don't like pre-thinned stuff, but if you're after a decent varnish for paints that don't like solvent paints over the top I can confirm they're honestly great. I hope they do some regular clear colours that behave this well. Was a tiny bit disappointed with the white primer I got from them, but maybe that's because I'm used to Mr. Surfacer and was hoping it'd be as retard-proof as that (and the varnishes, which TBF are genuinely amazing).
On that note, what kind of finish do you guys like to aim for with your models? I've been chasing the sort of "super smooth/automotive" look for a while now but I realize it's not much fun to actually do and it means I never finish anything; I practiced trying to mimic a watercolour illustration style ala Sugimori on this Squirtle kit with standard brush-painting and I've been finding the more painterly, less "neat" approach really rewarding and relaxing. I'll post pics when I eventually finish the thing and can get decent photos.

What's worse is that buying them from P-Bandai is even harder now due to the removal of order consolidation, as well as the price hikes due to tariffs. And trying to find that shit on AliExpress is also going to be a pain in the ass due to tariffs.

EG and 30mm level of nipper-less gates, but much better detailed and color separation through prepainting and co-molding. They are smaller than 1/144 gundam kits, pretty much the size of legends scale Transformers. Also if you can get them directly from China it's at a lot lower price.

Does anyone here have any experience recasting parts with silicon and resin? Is there any reason why with two part molds the split usually goes horizontally across the part you are casting, like in the left pic? It has a hole in either end for a joint, so in my mind it makes more sense to cast it with the part vertical, but I never see people do that. Is there a reason for that? All I can think of is that it would leave less room for registration marks.

The stuff that goes inside is liquid, it needs to be poured in, so you need channels for pouring and for the air to come out and no dead ends to trap the air. Same goes for silicone too, it's also liquid and it needs to be poured properly to make a good mold. Once you put it all together, you will see why the parting lines are where they are.

My current seam removal isusing Mr. Hobby surface primer 500. Easier seams i use the standard glue method. The main advantage, is you don't get those divets and troughs if you use the primer, and you don't need to sand it like putty since it self levels after a coat of primer.

I never had good success with surfacer for seam lines. Usually just use the cement, or putty. I did oversand the shit out of this kit, but impatience is my fault. Did a titanium gold base coat and it makes the green pop irl. Hard to get on camera but can kinda see it here. Ive been working on older shit kits lately, so getting back to a post 2000 kit is going to feel like a whole different game.

I have Machinedramon/ Mugendramon. I love him, absolut unit. But I only bought him because he was on sale for 60€ including shipping. List price was 90€ without shipping and this is a problem with the entire line, completely overpriced especially for the smaller kits and the main digimon just aren't that cool if you're not a total fan either.

It doesn't look as chonk as it does in the official art or SRW. Like, the thing looked boarderline-cumbersome. How do the shoulder flaps even work? It's armor but it impedes sight and it's on a hinge, for what purpose

the FA backpack adds these huge binders that come with extra missile bays on both sides you can open up to reveal the payload (you should paint the heads at least as they come molded in gray)

more importantly, they include some kind of landing gear that can be deployed to help you stabilize the model so it can stand up with no issues

Why does the stupid retard fatass look very sturdy and strong and menacing
Also how much of this is painted vs out-of-box, I've yet to figure out any budget or configuration for painting and it's probably going to just be doing bits of hand-painting at best, and mostly relying on markers for now. Because this looks impressive but I also vaguely recall you mentioning doing work on the pipes or something similar

this is a pic I took right when I began to work in this kit, you can see where the diecast parts are located

this is a straight out of the box build. the only paint I used was gold for the pistons in the shins you can see in this pic and that is when I noticed that the plastic they used for this thing for some reason I can't begin to discern makes very hard for paint to stick to it

this is why I did not bother to paint the weapons with metallic black or anything, I experimented even using primer on a runner after cutting out everything and even that shit refused to stick to the surface

I just used a brush to paint with red the power cables in the arms, the underside of the head and the missiles hidden in the binders of the backpack

imo, it is honestly a very impressive kit and even if Bandai ever decides to make a FA Hyakushiki, I doubt it will even pack half the extras this one comes with

with a weight well over 0.5 kg once everything is put together, the display base you also get is kinda useless, since it can't stand all that weight

still, a highly recommendable kit for any Quattro fans or if you want a MG of the FA Hyakushiki because it is the only option out there as Bandai will probably never make it

Speaking of topcoats, I have a kit that after over a year of proudly displaying on my shelf, I realized I could've done much better. I want to revisit it (redo some panel lining and fill gaps, mostly, maybe airbrush a couple details), but I already applied flat topcoat.
Should I strip the top coat? What's the best way to do it? Or should I just try filling gaps and panel lining with the topcoat on and then do another layer or two?

but I was considering pic related, aoshima 1/12 ape motorcycle modelkit
I mainly want some fun vehicles to pose and accompany my 1/12 figma, motu and some larger marvel legends around that scale.

Do you guys have experience with this?
Are they atleast somewhat sturdy or fun to play with? (like, figures can grab onto the handlebars and sit on them ok, if the wheels roll)
Or are these more fragile display models made to paint and sit on a shelf undisturbed.

tl;dr
I am considering these to vroom around with my actionfigures like a toy.
Am I gonna have a bad time?

For photography and display - yes, for active playing - no.

Scale models as the name suggests are made to scale, the structural integrity is not a priority, so while they are fully functional (wheels and handlebars turn, etc) they are not made for prolonged use, they will break pretty quickly.

The rg wing zero is a overall really nice kit and the proportion is like in between the Okawara design and katoki design made it extra cool. Though it made realize why I prefer the hg kits over rg kits because I don't have to cut through hundreds of undergates and the need of brash painting brings more variety instead of just constantly cutting gates.
