The next badge. Still a GM RX-78-2 2.0(Every Gundam collection needs the grand daddy IMO) and the MG Aile Strike R.M. in private warehouse at HLJ. Damn those restocks LOL. Thanks to HLJ for creating me a backlog 😀
Oh, and why not the Strike Freedom Full Burst Mode? Going to do ‘Mechie Plating’ myself. With the FBM there are a lot of parts that need to be plated anyways and this way I don’t have to strip the Bandai plated parts….
@tehbanshee13, well, that’s rather simple. First a gloss black enamel in preparation for the Alclad chrome. Then a mix of 85% clear yellow with 15% orange. Used it in the past for the yellow parts on my MG Destiny and MG Nu Ver.Ka. (on the latter it was hand painted, didn’t have an airbrush at the time). The only tricky thing is not to spray too…[Read more]
thanks but i had the idea of what u meant i meant was i was curious to see if u were using that metal powder stuff for the strike freedom because that would be even nicer lol 🙂 but happy building
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]
been working on this for a few days.
base:
i wanted a floating effect, i think it came out good. i still need to add some lights and stain.
gunpla:
i like the gold but im trying to figure out the green, im thinking tamiya racing green?
At last, my first Gunpla since the PG Unicorn last X-mas. Have to finish a commission before I can start building this beast. Not going to be Red or Yellow ( 😉 @Syd). Keeping it a surprise LOL
Also ordered some builder parts Verniers and some action bases
Thanks guys!
@daverb Yeah, like the Stein too, and that riffle sets me off a little too! @thebanshee13 I was contemplating it, ordered decals from Samuel a month ago for a commission I was working on, but wasn’t too pleased about the quality. When cutting them, one needs to be really careful not to touch them as the ink smudges really fast. Looked…[Read more]
Been a while since I’ve posted so I figured I would show what I’ve been doing. The kit bash is well underway and I’m currently figuring out the backpack arrangement. Lemme know what ya folks think
Hey @drAInbAmAgE r u entering into the NY GBWC this year with this entry? If so im also entering in there also 🙂

My first post in this group of my first ever build Gunpla. Some work in progress pictures. I hope you like them, please don’t be too harsh on a little girl, hihihi.
Pictures of the completed model can be found in the therefor group.

hmm how would u go about doing the mekki plating. it seems like an interesting idea 🙂

Yeah, I know the product, but I have no access to it, so Alclad Chrome will have to do.
Thanks, to you the same!
