I'll be sending out info later tonight (probably around 11PM EST), so if anyone still wants to sign up during the day you're more than welcome to.

Christmas in July!

I ended up picking fixed/random as it was tied again when I got up. The price limit will be $45 as quite frankly the $45 tier tends to be most popular anyway.

As usual fill out the form. Sign ups will run through the end of May.

Reposting since it was at the tail end of last thread:

Does anyone have any suggestions for a good single blade nipper that is NOT the Godhand SPN-120? I've been very happy with my Gundamplanet pair, but they've gone quite dull, and they haven't restocked in what feels like years. They also told me they have no idea when they'll ever make more.

I think Tamiya makes one, along with Mineshima and Wave. It's possible Xuron does but I haven't checked their lineup in years.

I wonder if you'd still think the same when you see little flakes of acrylic gunmetal (or silver, or gold) dancing in the air all around you as they slowly float to the open door/window. Totally breathable, amirite?

To the guy who asked about the Wave Metal Slug Tank kit last thread, don't. Shit's not worth it.
All you're paying for is the license and a shitty block of plastic worse than any regular tank kits.
Get the unlicensed one by Yihui/Billion Spark instead. Way cheaper and more bang for your buck.
You get high quality colored waterslides, a stand, effect parts, some ammo shells and gas tank, and optional clear armor parts.
The kit itself is great too with flexing articulation with piston movement, opening cockpit gimmick, great part separation, and individual, fucking, treads.
On the Wave kit, the treads are only 2 huge pieces of plastic smashed together.

Any tips on removing plastic with a hobby knife? Feel like I always end up removing too much of the nub when I try to shave it, and then it looks worse. Maybe I'm just doomed to sand every nub but it does ruin the fun a bit.

very sharp blade, hold it flat against the piece and angle upwards when you contact the nub everytime. You want to shave it down this way bit by bit. When you get low the most important part is to slide it smoothly across the piece. Just takes practice and motor skills.

Try and look for the godhand GH-PN 120
Xuron 410s

I snip a bit away from the piece, not right up to it (this helps avoid scarring). Then like >>8190094 says, try to angle upward a bit and carefully slice. I do it first one way, then the other way to get the "lip" that's usually left over.

We literally just had this discussion like 10-15 posts ago, but the tl;dr is that unless you're, like, a professional-grade modeler, you're not going to be able to sell them for much. I'm talking like maybe a quarter of the MSRP. There are people out there who'll buy bulk lots of built kits for parts, eBay or the BST are decent starting points.

Tallgeese looks a bit off model, but that's not gonna stop me buying it.

Cool as this is, I kinda wish they'd engineered some sort of peelback vinyl lid (this would also help in keeping dust out of that noodle sculpt, which looks like it has all kinds of nooks and crannies).

I also think some of the engineering here is kinda wasteful...like for instance, there was no need to create an additional white logo on top of the red one, that easily could have been managed with clever cutout and extrusion work on the first two parts.

Nevermind, just saw it does have a lid after all! I'm hoping it isn't some paper cut out of the manual like some kits do with capes. But it probably will be.

This text on the back also looks like it needs to be painted, most of it will just be white aside from the big logos.

I use all of the above.
SP-120 -> xacto cleanup -> sands pape
Once I notice any resistance in a blade, I toss it.
But for flat surfaces I'll rely more on the blade than paper as I can get a perfectly level surface without dulling any chamfers or edges.

because a I find a blade can follow the contour of a part much better than a sanding stick without any potential for deformation. using medium grits to quickly pull down nubs requires too much follow up surface correction.

BTW I just noticed these HG Infinitism kits actually have scale at 1/144, and I get that sense with Mazinger Z from the size of the cockpit, being much bigger robot than a MS. But these Super Robots differ a lot in size. Jeeg is small (head is basically human size) and Getters are huge. I assume their reasoning is in this Infinitism style these robot are all same size?

They have to ignore it almost immediately. Even Mazinkasier is almost 1.5 times the size of Mazinger and they've already made that out of proper scale. The only reason that Z and Great are there at 1/144 is because they're both the same general height as your average early to mid-UC Gundam.
Infinity is kind of spitting in the face of the aesthetic and soul of classic 70s super robot simplicity anyways so it's not like it matters.

I'm just surprised they bothered putting a scale on them. With old Japanese sci-fi media I think official heights are not that set in stone, within their own footage and art or third party spinoffs. So it really doesn't matter.

Like Ultraman were around 40m then but around Taro and on became 50m+ but older Ultraman still matched them in height (granted they can change their size at will) for the convenience of suit actors' heights.

/toy/ general was first while /m/ had on and off generals every few weeks that would often die before reaching halfway to the bump limit. Then build fighters was announced and when it started showing PVs more people on /m/ got interested in gunpla and so threads on /m/ started becoming more frequent and a bunch of new people started posting in the /toy/ thread as well. All the newfags asking the same basic questions or posting offtopic about the anime pissed a bunch of the /toy/ regulars off and there was also a bunch of trolls from /m/ who had followed them here too and eventually a bunch of newfags went back to the /m/ threads because the /toy/ thread was too "elitist" while the /m/ thread was full of newfags to the hobby like themselves. Both generals mellowed out, at some point the /m/ thread adopted the /toy/ OP and then got bigger and inevitably invaded by dedicated shitposters which lands us where we are now. One general on each board, with one smaller and slower mostly populated by a handful of regulars who are fairly relaxed about the hobby itself, and the other larger and faster but infested with a lot of people with swollen opinions about themselves and people just looking to start an argument. A far cry from what the /m/ gunpla threads originally were like.

This is pretty accurate for recent history, but I will say I wrote the original guide well back in 2010 because people kept asking the same shit over and over and over and it was maddening. I originally took over the thread posting duties on /m/ somewhere around that time as well.

My move to /toy/ was prompted because /m/ became a hive of shit posting and basically no gunpla/plamo talk, mostly just discussing the various series or hating one one series or another. Since the move to /toy/ I think I've made around 99% of the threads (so this was in either 2010 or 2011).

But all the other stuff is accurate, the year around Build Fighters airing was bonkers here.I recall making two or three threads a week at times. It did kind of suck though, brought about a LOT of newfaggotry and shitposting which drove all the regulars crazy for a while.

Speaking of the guide though anyone interested in some clean up or section changes? The last edit was in 2017 so it's getting pretty out of date again.

I suppose I could add some stuff on airbrushes/resin/masking/whatever.

I do wonder though if the guide should move from a single long doc to a wiki of some sort so individual sections could be expanded independently.

>>8195702
That is a valid point, but would you read through a 200 page document though? A wiki can be navigated fine if you have a flat index with links to all sections. Same can be done in a doc of course, but the wiki allows for easier maintenance and you could have collaborative editing as opposed to GG making all the changes.

>would you read through a 200 page document though?
I mean, probably not. From the beginning I'm not really likely the target audience, since I've been in the hobby long enough to be more on the contributing to rather than consuming side of information.

I think there's still value in a wiki particularly if there's a good index to navigate, that alleviates most of my concerns. There's definitely something to be said about terminology being tricky to use, too. Sheet styrene, pla plate, plastic sheeting? What gets you to the article about it? Top coat, clear coat, etc? There's a lot of terminology difference in the hobby with some basic terms. It's not a huge deal, but these are things I think about with wikis. Ability to access the information and not hiding it behind specific search terms.

I'd say the format I've liked the most for things are well laid out multiple tab google sheets with external links when necessary. They can be prettied up quite a bit, editted by multiple people etc. Maintenance is definitely harder though since it's so easy to break things there comparatively.

If I'm being picky, I would say that the guide could be organized much better, it's kind of dense and hard to look at right now. Less walls of text and more infographic-style organization would make it easier to digest. It could also use more explanatory images for some sections.

Part of me really wants to put some hours into this, but the other part of me knows that I have too much on my plate already and I'm always exhausted after work.

Hey guys, I could use some advice. Someone is commissioning me to paint pic related for them, and I said sure since I paint kits all the time anyway so it's easy money. But my problem now is, how the hell do I package this? I've shipped out painted gunpla for people before by separating the parts and cutting out holes in the shape of the parts in foam to keep them secure in the box, but what I'm worried about this time around is the dumb pointy hair breaking during delivery since it looks incredibly thin and fragile. I thought about leaving the hair bits disassembled but I'd figure it's likely they might not know how to glue this together properly either and run the risk of ruining the paint.
What do, bros? Also, sorry in advance since this isn't exactly plamo. Didn't know where else to ask for advice.

check out a youtube channel called 隙間三-sukima-. He does really good assembly with drilled magnets, which is a somewhat common technique in tabletop miniatures. Alternatively, you could go the classic route and pin it, leaving it for him to pin together when it arrives. plenty of options, but I agree that you wouldn't want to ship it in one piece unless you had something along the lines of a vacuuform machine to build a drawn enclosure for it.

A lot of prepainted western statues come boxed with specially cut styrofoam, I think like you mention. My recommendation is watching a few unboxing videos, maybe of similar figures to the one you want to ship, just to get a number of examples in your mind. Maybe one of them will do something that looks good that you could replicate.
For the hair, I would recommend wrapping it with cottonballs or gauze, taping that securely, then cutting a void in the foam large enough to hold the block of padding you just made.
The idea, is that the figure would be secure in the foam just from the way you have the body wrapped up, and the hair parts would *not* be touching the walls of the cavity you cut for it. Instead, the gap between foam and head would be filled with soft fluffy material so if there was a sudden jolt there would be no impact of hair hitting the side of the foam, it would be cushioned and kept from having any travel range instead.

Do the foam trick as before, full the space with small polystyrene balls so it can sit snug in the space without bashing against any sides.
Otherwise you could try to wrap some card around the spikes like a tube and have the tube be the part that keeps the entire head stable. Straws might work for that instead of card, but I guess you do run the risk of scratching the paint.

Depends on the line, really. We talking Hexa gear, frame arms, frame arms girl, HMM, Armored core, or what? Because each line varies in different ways.

If you just want some generalities though:
1. More, smaller runners
2. More color separation because of more smaller runners
3. Higher price point
4. Sometimes have prepainted pieces.
5. Smaller pieces generally.

Generally speaking the plastic quality and engineering isn't quite as good as Bandai, but it has gotten pretty close in recent years. Don't ever expect as much articulation out of their robot kits, though. At least not for Frame Arms and licensed machines, I can't speak to HexaGear. For older kits expect to paint and for their plastic quality to be really lacking, and their builds to be much less secure out of the box than Bandai's (SRW, AC stuff). You'll find more fitting issues overall and just a bit less quality control, as well as numerous small pieces that will require glue to really sit properly and stuff like that. Nothing crazy, but very marginally more skill required to build right overall than gunpla.

For a kit made in 1999, it holds up so well

Dom's pretty simple overall. They did update some of the joints for the Dowadges.

This might be a retarded question, but what’s the best way to top coat with a can? Do I take the figure apart (head, body, legs, arms)? Spray it completed?

I do each module [head, torso, legs, etc.] separately, at least with MGs. Just to make sure it gets a good coat

Use common sense. Split it into logical parts. Think about where the spray can reach. Make sure you get in all the nooks and crannies, like inside the knee and elbow joints both when straight and bent. Wrap your balljoints and shit in masking tape so you don't thicken them up and make the fit too tight. And either remove or mask off any clear parts, matte topcoat will frost them.

I had issues gettin a non blotchy coat when I first started,a anons advice was to hold the can around a foot away,short bursts and making sure its totally covered. There advice was to get it wet looking but not dripping. So far that advice helped allot,mainly the last part

Was it a few weeks back when you got that advice? If so, that was me haha. Sounds like me anyway.

Anyway, >>8198076, getting it "wet but not dripping" is important so that the topcoat can self-level and form a smooth surface. If you spray too much, it will leave white frosting and/or thick gunky spots. Spray too little, and you will get an unpleasant gritty look and texture. It wouldn't hurt to get some cheapo kits to practice topcoating on, like anything else it's an art and takes practice to get good at it.

I also think this is real ugly and the weapon is stupid, but there is something weirdly compelling about it too. I dunno. It makes me feel confused. I simultaneously want it, and want to make fun of it.

Haha actually yea,so thanks for that they look allot better. My issue was not getting enough on,i figued too much would just cake up but it drys to a nice velvet with matte finish,before it was definitely gunky looking,allmost like it had a little bit of soda spilt on it. Would you suggest hitting it again with the refined technique? I had issues with my MG Hi-Nu ver ka and that kit is too pretty to have a shit topcoat. Not sure if another coat might be too much

Hmm, I'm actually not positive, I've never tried going over a "not enough sprayed" topcoat again. My assumption is that it'll be fine, since some people do multiple coats of topcoat (which is mostly pointless in my opinion) with no ill effects. If you want to be absolutely safe, I would take a piece of plastic or a leftover runner and try to recreate those conditions. Doing small scale tests is usually a good idea when you're unsure of how something will react, and it's a good reason to keep a few spare sprues around.

How do you make sure it hits the whole piece? In other words, do you use anything to hold them up while painting? I don’t want to just set them on a piece of paper and spray. I’ve seen clips in photos but I have no idea what they’re called and where I can buy them locally.

Alligator clips.

>where I can buy them locally.
They're useful, so they're common. Craft stores, Amazon, Ali Express... take your pick, really.

If you're too lazy or can't get alligator clips right now, I take a long strip of masking tape, make a loop so it's double-sided, then paste it to a piece of cardboard or a flattened box. I stick all my pieces to it, then spray them all, trying to get as much coverage as I can. Then I make a new tape loop, flip the pieces over onto it, and spray again. It's a little more work since you need to do it in two separate passes and wait for drying in between, but it works.

More like 4 passes because you also want to hit the transition area between the 2 halves you sprayed.

You really want to secure your piece to a stick of some sort so you can rotate it in your hand as you spray to coat the whole thing all at once.

Is one of the reasons char was so pissed about things the fact that most newtypes were better than him? Seems like he thought he was supposed to be THE newtype considering who his father was. All these snot nosed punks show up and quickly surpass his abilities.

Another thing I seen done is some folk take the sprues, cut out long straight parts and heat the tip with a lighter. Then they smoosh the end onto an area that won't get painted. Since only once side was melted and not the part being painted, the plastic isn't fused and thus is easily popped off without damage.

I’m happy with how it turned out. Kinda fucked the plastic when taking off the nubs, but it was $8 and a test so not a big deal.

Having a lot of fun with the hobby so far

Take out the yellow camera piece next time (or just don't put it in until after you spray. It'll look better to have one crystal clear shiny piece to contrast all that flat matte.
