Im working on getting as much of the RG Destiny Heine ver done this weekend as possible, gotta love 3 days off. Ive done a fair amount of chrome detailing on both the frame…
I do like the way the matte finish looks on the RGs, my RX-78-2 is a nice example of that. Yeah nick, out of the 5 RGs that i currently have, 3 are special release. Trans-am Exia, Clear Zeta, and Heine color Destiny. Ohh plus the clear Strike Freedom that my girlfriend just ordered for me will make 4 out of 6 special release.
I’d love to get my hands on the “full burst” RG SF with wings of light connecting to the dragoons.
I myself only have 5 RGs but all retail releases so I’m a bit jelous 😛
Well the Sazabi gets the back burner treatment yet again since this found its way to me from Otakon and can’t help but build this immediately. My RG collection is starting to fill out nicely.
Hi syd and Ryan. Nice video as always..I wish I could win the RG Freedom.only that one missing from my RG line..but well not my lucky day. Cant wait for the release of the Hi Nu Ver Ka..hopefully can clear all my […]
hey guys great show so far keep up the good work looking forward to seeing mroe new gunpla tv episode would love to win those prizes espically that delta gundam :O
Shoulders totally finished and this kit is halfway done. The vinegar did its magic on the water slide and no sign of silvering. The colors are really coming together i think. Not sure if i want to start the weapons or the legs next…
No commercial products actually. Just a gloss top coat and I used white vinegar instead of water to loosen the decals. Lots of time and constant use of a cotton swab is required though. The large shoulder decal took 20-25 minutes of constant attention to come out like that. Then just a gloss top coat to seal it.
Only one decal remaining to finish up the shoulders. It is the big S-01 that sits over some serious ridges on the left shoulder, so i’ll be doing that one tomorrow with some white vinegar as a decal softener.
Im so close to finishing the paint and assembly on these shoulders. I really am shocked at all the movement in the shoulders, although it really extended the painting time on these pieces. I hope to have them ready for a clear coat and water slides by the end of this session
Thnx for the compliment on the colors. My girlfriend worked for a long time trying to figure out a wild color scheme and she really did pick a winner it seems.
Great episode guys, as always. Just wondering if you think there will be enough of the Hi-nu ver ka.’s on the initial shipment to open orders again immediately? I missed my chance to pre order the kit from HLJ […]
figure ill post some shots of what i have assembled so far. i think the colors are coming together nicely. Working on the shoulders now so by the end of the weekend i should have the upper half done.
actually its not blue, its a plum purple. hard to see with these pics, i need better lighting. nothing crazy on the weapons maybe some metallic accents and possible coloration shift on the beam weapons.
Waiting for the gloss to dry so i can get on the water slides and finish up these arms. While looking over the decal guide i noticed these area are depicted as grey, so i painted them to match and i think it came out well.
great show as always guys. hope I could get one of those RG ^0^ .. just one question guys. I already preordered the MG Hi Nu Ver ka and the RE nightingale at Hlj.com..could you give me one of those posters that […]

More work on the arms. Need a touch up on the purple and one more part to assemble before i can get the first top coat on and move on to the water slides. Hopefully i can finish the arms in the next day or so.
Thanks @Nick, funny you should mention that since i really didn’t think about it before i chose the paint scheme, lucky for me it worked out. But you got me thinking about the color scheme im debating about for my nu-gundam Ver Ka and if the water slides will get lost in the color. Since there are 2 color water slides for that kit im going to have…[Read more]
do a semi gloss coat always looks nice in my opinion lol
hmmm semi gloss u say? ive only done gloss and matte finishes so far. ill have to look into that
My vote is for matte finish on real grades as they’re supposed to be “real machines”.
You must have more special release RGs than regular by now :P.
