I’m stealing this idea! Haha I’m working on the MG 00 Qan[t] right now and modding leds all over. I was going to get the Destiny and do the same with that next but this makes me want to get the Fenice next!
haven’t really gotten a lot of physical progress done but im getting kits for my FIRST Gunpla kitbash, consisting of the G-self, Try Burning Gundam, and Transient Gundam. For…
Do be aware that the arms of the Transient and try burning are rather different. the Tranisent’s arms are a peg and socket type, and the build/try burning are a ball joint type(the ball is art of the shoulder piece of the try burning, and the peg is part of the body on the transient). You’ll have quite a bit of work ahead of you in modifying those…[Read more]
Actually, I have looked into what gunpla to use as well as their instruction manuals to give myself a good challenge but not an impossible challenge and ive figured that I can just take away the ball socket-to-peg parts to insert the try burnings arms where the pegs get connected, via the Try Burning’s shoulder ball joints. however I don’t kno…[Read more]
The ball sockets on the try burning are the same as those on the build burning, so you should be fine with the shoulders fitting the transients ball sockets. I have both the transient and build burning kits, so the big problem you’ll encounter is that you will lose part of the transient’s chest when doing this, as it connects to the ball socket,…[Read more]
ok, though the latter option seems a bit crazy as im just starting out on kitbashing so ill do the first option first and later once im more experienced with kitbashing I may do the second option. thank you for the tip! 😀
although i don’t have a PG yet, this kit’s presence and detail very much feels like one and i love it! work in slow progress since work has been very busy…[Read more]
Indeed it feels like a PG. It was my second kit, the first was a PG. At first I wasn’t that impressed with the Nu (I didn’t put the frame together like you did, but build it piece by piece) but when it all came together it was awesome! Now I tend to compare all MG’s to the Nu Ver.Ka…….
Hope you enjoy the rest of the build
thanks! i’ll be adding the under side of the feet, backhand covers, thrusters, verniers and other necessary armor panels that are “non-maintenance” and will be displaying it as the frame for a while since i’ll be working on the decals on the outer armors xD
I wish you good luck with those like a million or so decals. If you take your time, it’ll work out fine, I’m sure.
If I may give you a tip, if you don’t have a mark softer, I suggest getting some. It will come in handy for the water slide on the back skirt armor 😉
As a formal injection mold engineer and according to Bandai’s history on Unicorn MG, it’s almost guarantee to see a PG Banshee. Most engineering and tooling are done. If they decide to release a novel version, they’ll just need to provide the forehead pieces, for OVA regular version, the different are the armed VN and BS, and the forehead and…[Read more]
