At last I completed the MG Nu ver. Ka. Am really happy with how it looks when lit up. It was really challenging to put LEDs in it and I think it looks cooler than the PG…
It looks great!!! You did an awesome job on the LED’s. Not my cup of tea, but nevertheless impressive!
I have to concur with you on the Nu being a great kit. It was my first MG last spring, as I was painting the frame up and building it, I wasn’t impressed as my first Gunpla was a PG. As I began putting the frame on, I began falling in love with…[Read more]
Thanks!After having put all these LEDs am sure I can make the PG Unicorn look more awesome with more LEDs. For the 2nd Nu ver Ka, I’ll use Phosphorescent paint for the psychoframe.
But before starting with the PG, I have 3 kits to deal with-my 1st SD kit, SD Phenex,and my 1st RG kits-RG Rx-78 and the RG Aile Strike.
I wish you a happy New Year…[Read more]
The funnels on the back appear brighter as the plastic on the BTF kit are kind of translucent unlike the Bandai plastic which is opaque. These guys lie when they say it’s the same quality as Bandai.
Now let’s see what I am able to do with the PG Unicorn..
Finally finished the PG Unicorn, took a while but it was well worth it. First PG I’ve ever built. Thinking of doing another one in the near future. 00 Raiser or the Wing Zero Custom (just finished watching Wing).
very nice , mine arrived today at last (thanks to a 2 week stay in UK customs , grrrr) its good to see a completeed kit with all the lining done , gives me a good idea of what mine will look like 🙂
Because I dont paint (yet), I did a lot of lining and smudging with a cotton bud, which sort of gave it a shaded effect around all the lines. Took a lot of time but I’m satisfied.
The toughest part with the LEDs is understanding what they want you to do, toughest part was the shoulders for me.
Did you try to transform it back to unicorn?Am having problem with the facemask.It doesn’t seem to have clearance to slide down enough when attached to the neck, to allow the destroy mode face to go back inside the head.
The top slides alright, but the Unicorn faceplate doesn’t rotate down enough to make clearance for the Destroy mode face to be tucked back inside. I have to apply a bit of pressure to make the neck bend back to make clearance.
Hi, I just assembled a 1/35 Patlabor Ingram 2 MG kit and it looks cool, but the torso opening mechanism kinda confuses me, mostly because I had to put the lower hatch rely solely on the waist rubber, dunno if I assembled that part right.
Completed the Mobile Suit. Btw sorry, I forgot to open the chest pieces to let the Psycho frame show, and the left Shoulder lights up too but not showing in the pics. Used…
Kenbill posted the PG Unicorn LED unit parts on his blog. http://blog.kenbill.com/?eid=626
To be honest im not in any way impressed by them. 12k yen for it is way overpriced (maybe not if take into account that it suppose to have a digital circuit to regulate the leds), but for people who played with leds they can get better results cheaper.
I must say I agree with you, though I did buy it along with the LED set. I have just put LEDs to light up the Psychoframe of my Nu ver. Ka and I think it looks cooler than the PG. I am a bit annoyed Bandai didn’t make the LEDs light up the Unchained Psychoframe parts in the arms and legs-and what about the Shield?.. Am definitely putting more LEDs…[Read more]
