Tried to submit my piece but it seems that the timezone had to be an earlier time zone. So this is what im going to submit at this time. Not sure why it ended early. But it was fun i suppose.
I believe they mentioned in one of the episodes to remember that it was Japan time. So that would be around 12 in the afternoon for Eastern Time on the 30th.
Thank you for your post!
Indeed, as we’re in Japan and all of our business runs on JST, this competition also ended at 12am May 1st JST (entries accepted until April 30th at 11:59pm).
Though we’ve mentioned the timezone here and there — in videos, public questions, and in support emails — we realize that the timezone was not stated clearly in…[Read more]
I think for future reference it might be best to include the deadline equivalent in an EU and an NA timezones as people tend to forget that timezones are a thing.

Well it looks like I screwed up big time and missed the submission deadline since the submission page isn’t loading. Oh well, can’t do much about it now.
Okay, one last post under decent lighting with a better-than-my-phone camera. This is my submission for this year’s competition, RGM-79/K/U unit 216. RGM-79 is the mobile suit, /K designation for the 1.2 m Kinetic Cannon, /U designation in reference to it’s up-armored state.
Kind of relieved that I’m not the only one sitting around paranoid about whether my entry went through this weekend while waiting for a confirmation email.
Please tell me, why I didn.t got my confirm for now?
I made Lamborghini Sesto Elemento
All rules were followed, I think…
Please, confirm my participation
After pressing ok,there was a message.. thank you we got your stuff..,so I am convinced. But I am,suprised how many people have problems with the page loading and such things.,Its 2017 …
I still have no message, which, if done by hand, is understandable. But having dabbled in entry forms myself, an automated message confirming entry is quite easy to make.
2017 indeed
I have no PM or email too, but I don’t panic. Everything will be allright. But if something went wrong on youre side that would increase my chances for the win quite a lot^^
Well here it is. I wasn’t able to finish it as fully as I wanted, but this is what I’ve got. The name is inspired by a part of the process where I accidentally discovered that I’d be able to do something interesting with the paint, as well as my original designs;
Shortly after taking pictures I messed up part of my kit. Scratched the shoulder while posing it with the shield, bent the antennae and one of the arms got really lose. :/
Painted gunpla should be handled like newborns. No jokes. Don’t touch the mods. Also, if possible, use lacquer + top coats to protect the paints. Even better, sand/polish EVERY panel.
Alright guys, my last W.I.P. before I submit it. Just waiting on the quick base I made for it to dry before grabbing a real camera and taking decent pictures. This is the most scratch building I’ve done so far, and while it’s pretty simple I’m happy with how it turned out. Good luck to everyone in the competition!
Oh man, it’s like Christmas! After 2 and a half months, Gourai Type 10 is finally painted and ready, and not a moment too soon! Without further ado, I present to you my f…
Looks great! Really clean build!
Did you paint the skin parts or only top-coated them? Waiting for my Innocentia to arrive but I am really afraid to painting skin and yours looks perfect.
Thanks! Yeah, I was afraid of painting the skin too, so I decided I’d just top coat it. I’m glad I did, though, because it turned out looking great, no paint required! I also welded the seams on her thighs with tamiya thin cement, and that went a long way toward making them look natural. I definitely recommend seam welding any flesh parts, just…[Read more]
It definitely looks great. Noted all, it would be my first articulated kit so all the tips help, I usually build military vehicles, but her smugness was too much to ignore and decided to give it a try, also got a pair of little armory AKs, they are compatible right?
Any recommendations for using Mr. Topcoat, I am getting the same one ASAP, the…[Read more]
All the Little Armory weapons work with FA:Gs. That rifle in the pics is the LA Type 89 assault rifle, and it comes with Gourai Type 10 (since it’s an assault rifle used by the JSDF). Their hands are flexible and rubbery so they can hold a lot of handheld weapons, including stuff meant for gundams or others.
Excellent! I’ll take all that into account. Thanks man.
It’s pretty cool she is modeled around the JGSDF’s MBT, painted on JGSDF camo and wields their issued assault rifle, great work!
