Since there was a tie I decided to go with both. You can build/paint as either or, or both if you want.

I didn't know a single thing about gundam a month ago, other than it is a thing about big robots.

In that time, I have absorbed as much information as I could find on the hobby.

These are the giant robots I've chosen to build in that time. Each took me about 2 ish hours to build. I have begun recommending this hobby to everyone I know. Its relaxing to put on a pod cast or youtube videos, and just do some plastic crack.

Thanks guys, it was fun. If you have any 1/144 kits to recommend me that are MUST HAVES, I'd like to give them a look. I've decided I don't really like the look of Zaku. Too bulky and round looking for my tastes.

I've been looking at modding my HGUC Quel for painting and general autism and found this guide that uses the kind of tips you used to get from dengeki hobby mag: http://cs.finescale.com/fsm/modeling_subjects/f/6/t/104174.aspx

But was wondering if there was any better way of modding this upper arm/inner shoulder connection that doesn't sacrifice range of motion in the arm rotation but still allows for disconnection? At the moment I can only think of adding a second polycap in there. Anyone else got ideas?

But of course you know all of this. You're well aware that people have always called it grandpa or gramps or what the fuck ever, and even if you didn't a reasonable person wouldn't care. You're just a shitposter. The truth is irrelevant, and your logic bends to whatever gets you more (You)s, which I'm going to stop providing you with.
Please find a hobby instead of actively seeking out reasons to be mad and start fights with anonymous people to make yourself get madder. It's unhealthy. You're posting in a thread about a fantastic hobby and it might be good for your mental health to try building some Gunpla yourself. Start with the EG Grandpa. :^)

It's some /m/tard or similar who shits up both threads. They just sit on both and reply within minutes. You can tell because they more or less say the exact same thing every single thread with the same images and double post a lot to reply to detractors. Which is very obvious on a slow board.

And before "everyone you don't like is the same person" Come the fuck on. EG rager who comes with a thesis and a data chart every time someone recommends the EG is one person. Grandaddy "hello, reddit" rager is one person. Their purposes on this site may be very skewed and sad but they aren't fooling anyone on that front.

Anyways back on topic,
>>8628903
Room Temp is best, and just as a rule the further your parts and paint get from that the worse the paint is going to stick. I've seen a good range to stick to being 50°F and 90°F (10°C and 32°C) and relative humidity well below 85%, the other anon had a more concise humidity range there. Plus if it gets too cold you're not going to be able to operate your spray can or airbrush properly, if you live in say the Midwest USA be prepared to not be able to spray for like over half the year because of the cold or humidity depending on exactly where you're at.

I believe hand painting is way more tolerable, you're still going to want to avoid extreme conditions, but a garage in the West Coast sounds fine to me isn't it usually dry with more or less perfect weather out there? If you're hand painting you can just do it indoors with a fan on if you're concerned with paint fumes. People spray outside cause it makes a mess if you don't have a spray booth. I have a cheap spray booth and it was a
great investment just to not be at the whims of the weather where I live, I just spray in my basement and vent out of a window.

Anyone know how to get the GM Guard Custom to hold his shield better?

I have lots of scrap plastic and cement I could use to make better handles, but don't how to actually lay it out to make the parts fit naturally with the rest of the kit.

This stuff changes based on the base coat you have on top of the normal color shitfing, to quote them "Prism Power is a type of turboshift that we are calling zenishift. Used over white it is a peachy pink with blue highlights reminiscent of Sailor Moon’s fingernails, used over black it is a bluish-purple with a pink shift." Yeah I'll have to think of a good application since this one seems more suited for something like war-hammer, but energy flow is a good idea.

Actually, FUCK. looking at my backlog, this is very close to the actual Baund Doc color scheme. I'm just gonna do a Baund Doc with this.

Shouldn't be a problem if you keep your workspace relatively tidy. as always, clean your parts before painting them to remove dust and oils (I use a quick bath in a sonic cleaner) and wear a glove on the hand that is going to touch the parts while you're painting if you're concerned about contamination.

I think it depends on the store. My local HL has had no gunpla or hobby tool restocks in over two months. (A friend told me they replaced that space with funko pop). Then another one a city over is packed with expensive resin craft kits, doll houses and a fully stocked gundam aisle.

I believe it. They don't even use barcode scanners and they have online sales every 1-2 weeks that keep clearing out the warehouse inventory. I have tried doing rain checks and backorders, seems like they're all just at the mercy of whatever gets shipped since everything expires after 30 days (waited, no phone call, called every week, no kits). It sucks, because I want to go there and get kits, if they even have one kit I want I'll probably end up buying other supplies... But I'm not about to wait in line 5-10 minutes to buy something I don't really want when they're out of stock of every gunpla. I really want to support them, hope they figure out how to stock the stores.

My local Hobby Lobby surprisingly had Gunpla; well the majority of em were sold out, sans two HG Wing Gundam Zeros, and that one of those was eventually picked up by a dude and his GF as I was looking at the classic car kits.

They also had a few Pokémon Plamo, like Eevee, Pikachu, Mew, and Reshiram. They had a couple DBZ and Boku no Hero too.

There also was a 30MM kit too. As much as I loathe Snobby Lobby... I am amazed at how much shit they have.

We sell turbo dork at the LGS I work at.
I've sampled a few bottles, and they more or less work as intended. Be vigilant, and pay attention to the label/cap color. They are only meant to be sprayed over a certain undercoat. Usually black, sometimes white. And never try to paint them by hand, it doesnt work.

overall, they are far from the best color shifting paint on the market.

The rule used to be the area cross section of the spray booth x 100 foot per minute to get the CFM. So for a crossdraft spraybooth the cross section is the front opening. So for a 2ft wide and 1.5ft tall booth you'd want a 300CFM fan. And probably a 6" or 8" duct over any significant length of duct so static pressure doesn't build up and block airflow. A computer fan probably isn't a good idea, they're almost all pretty shitty and most don't even push 100CFM.

Mostly USAG and Galactic, very sparingly Gundam Planet just because they're so close that standard shipping gets here in like day. For one offs I've used BBTS for a PG exia, Eugene Hobby for a MG Rezel C, and ebay for a p bandai i missed and the lighting kit for said exia.
For paints I've been using Megahobby, so small local shop and USAG. And I sold my soul recently and bought the youtube G paint from his site directly.

Okay so to anyone interested I decided to cut a T profile channel down the side and make a plaplate cap to fill the channel end, which very conveniently only required two pieces of 1mm thick plaplate stacked together to make, and then just jammed it in to cut and sanded flush in-situ. Once cleaned up and painted it should simply look like a bit of additional detailing, but it's not going to be prominent either way. Stability wise it feels very sturdy with the friction of the channel holding the joint in place without feeling loose or wobbly, while the arm and cap still being removable if held against something and pushed out. One tip if you want to replicate this is if you leave a slight hump just before the joint hole so you get a nice tactile click when you push the arm joint into place, that way you know it'll retain itself nicely.

Thanks for the heads up. The kind i got can be sprayed over white or black for a different shade effect, I have those color primers so I should be set. I'll see how it goes if I end up buying more of their paints, they do have a lot of colors that seem very interesting to me, but I can also see it being very overdone. What "Color-shift" brand do you prefer?

Well you'll rarely find the lowest price on either of those sites, some decent deals on eBay but I usually shop around and wait for free shipping coupons and discounts before making a big order. But buying one kit at a time, eBay is pretty decent if you consider shipping.

>Well you'll rarely find the lowest price on either of those sites
Unless you live in whogivesashitstan right down the street from Japan then shipping costs on most Japanese sites will close the gap between them and a site like Amazon where kits are more expensive but you get 2 day free shipping.
Dunno about ebay though.

Did it ever occur to you that the stores that partner with Buyee explicitly prohibit side by side comparisons in their terms? If you ever integrated with 3rd party vendors you'd know it's a common requirement.

But then again, you seem to struggle with finding which button to press so no surprise here.

I hope to god they don't end up cancelling my Wing Gundam Zero EW ver ka that's supposed to arrive Sunday, I already shop elsewhere for most of my kits unless I don't have the choice and this is one of the reasons.

Bandai's dropped the Revive branding but they still do HGUC kits that might as well be "Revives". The latest HGUC Zeta got GEP branding instead of Revive, and they did a new Ground Gundam with no special branding, but it's basically a Revive of the older HGUC Ground Gundam.

there was never a "revive" line. That was all just marketing for the products. Not even the rX-78-2 HGUC revive ever had revive in the product name, just in the 35th anniversary logo. Similar to how the HGUC Zeta GunPla Evolution spec doesn't have GunPla Evolution spec in the official product name.

You can paint them by hand if you know what you're doing. The metallic/colorshift effects looks fine when hand painted... unless you're just hellbent on getting airbrush finish quality. I used Blue Raspberry, Miami Sunset, and Multi Pass on my Jesta. Follow the bottle's suggested undercoat, apply 3 thin perpendicular coats, then gloss.

It doesn't sound like you know what photoetch is, but that's fine.
For the babbies who build these things photoetch would mean getting a whole new set of tools (and skills) and there is 0 chance Bandai would subject their target demographic to that. So expecting photoetch in gunpla is just silly.

It also refers to the type of detail parts that can't be done with plastic or resin. In many cases they are thin protrusions or intricate lattice like >>8632607 and often they are folded into 3D shapes. The case when you glue the whole thing flat to the plastic (like a sticker) is a relative minority.

The newer RGs are mostly fantastic. RG tallgeese I can vouch for, and is closer in price to an hg. Some are pretty flimsy so just look up a review on youtube, but others are rock solid for the most part, like the tallgeese. HG full armor unicorn is also fantastic.

I think that has to do about what sort of person is going to be buying a kit.
someone who is going to buy obscure chinese models obviously know a little bit more about modelling than someone who builds bandai models, hence why bandai models mostly come with stickers.
someone who is going to be building the new PG isn't usually someone who's ever applied waterslide decals most likely.

I don't use waterslides because I can't spray topcoats where I live so it's not even a matter of them being hard to use or anything.
Gunpla is indeed a hobby with mass appeal and despite what shitposters will lead you to believe a big part of what makes the hobby great and appealing is that you can get joy out of it at various levels, whether it's a kid snipping off nubs with nailclippers or a person who's been at it for decades painting, customizing and topcoating their shit, there's something for everyone, but waterslides are specialized and only certain builders can and will use them, whereas stickers are universally simple.
Still wish Bandai would funnel some R&D into making bitter stickers though because the transparent ones are so tacky.

I agree with most of what you said but a properly set decal is much much less prone to peeling off compared to stickers and becomes very scratch resistant after a week of drying so it's not specialized at all.

I put some waterslide decals on a plastic container I had with mr. mark setter and softer and after some months I tried peeling it off for fun, I got it off of course but with scratching it with a toothpick and after this experience I can safely say that waterslides will last you way longer than your average bandai stickers, even without a protective layer.
now of course a protective layer of clear paint helps a lot and you won't be catching me without it.
