About to watch episode 3 is anyone else have problems remembering the new characters names? I’m about to watch episode 3 and for the life of me can’t remember their names.
I’m like that with all anime. Usually Gundam character names are easy to remember.
Sekai Kamiki – The Reiji look a like
Yuuma Kousaka – The one with blue hair
Fumina Hoshino – The blonde girl (Often called Sempai)
Mirai Kamiki – Sekai’s sister (Often called Neesan)
Then there is Mr.Ral. Whatever you do, don’t call him a Zaku.
Another fun episode really enjoy the battle sequences in this series. They should have Norris from the 8th MS team coach a rival team so we can have a battle of the goufs.
The chest is done and this kit seems to building quite nicely. I feel that it is screaming for a LED light job and based on what i have seen inside the chest it looks very workable.
I was afraid that the clear version armor would look a bit boring compared to the normal white but I’m happy to be proven wrong.
Is the inner frame plain grey or is it different for this version?
I was also happy to that the clear parts look good on the kit. It looks like the frame on this kit (or a good chuck of it at least) is done in a gloss injection style. Very similar to the RG trans-am exia that I build a few months back
I’d probably get the Build Burning Gundam but mainly because of the awesome effect parts it’d come with. I reckon that’d make it that little bit awesomer than the Fenice.
The little woman bought me the MG MS-14s Gelgoog for my 35th. so far the frame is together.. i might leave it this way.. such a nice frame, better looking than the Zaku…
Ps, I only paint the inner frames. No detailing. On all heavy industrial equipment all the components are sprayed in one color, this only to prevent rust. Pistons and e.g. drive belt of course not. So I follow that trend, as a giant robot is a huge piece of military equipment. But that is just my opinion…
i like to do some detailing on the frames but it really depends on the kit for me. my next big build will be rather extensive with the level of inner frame detailing but its still in the planning stages at this point. I agree with teetee about “undercoating” of industrial machinery so i will be going with one or two flat grey colors for the frame…[Read more]
id really like to see how you work pink into the nu-gundam. please keep us updated on that.
thanks for telling me how you go about it. i was thinking of just detailing it without any kind of finish coat.
Very nice frame! I have my gelgoog on the way! I like to add nice little details to give the kit more life! i dont paint the frame tho but i do detail pistons, ankles, elbows and thrusters! The gelgoog has a lot of thrusters and I just keep dreaming about what i’ll be doing with them.
Its true to a degree. The moment when they are out of the factory and they are serviced by mechanics the one color goes away due to various reasons. The chances of the spare part having the exact same color are slim (more than one factory building the suit is one example), also sometimes parts of different suits are used for repairs. Not to…[Read more]
Hi @ryan ..Just a quick suggestion..could I suggest that hlj.com add a wishlist option since sometimes when I’m browsing thru hlj.com I find things I wanted to buy but have to wait for payday…if the option exist I can always remember things I wanted to buy.thanks
You’re not the first person to request this. In one of the episodes they say that they are working on it, but had to resolve some other issues on the site first. Have to admit, this was almost a year back..
In the meantime, there is something out there that may help you in the meantime. It’s called a piece of paper and a pen… 😛
Well taking a break from the Crossbone – technically its finished but i want to do the wash on it (i suck at panel lines) so i still need to do some gloss coats for it. So in…
well before i was using aditional layer of gloss acrylic varnish and used the humbrol enamel thinned with petroleum ether. It somehow did work but the thinner was evaporating super fast so it was hard to get the right mix. Now i want to check a store bought wash (which strangely enough is acrylic based) . The preliminary test i did on the…[Read more]
Its been a couple of months since i put a kit together , so as its miserable outside today im making a start on this 1/100 NG Cherudim gundam designers colour version which comes with some nice markings , clear polycaps and an led for the head, a great value kit.
