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.
I’ve moved onto the weapons pack. It’s a combination of a Frame Arms kit, a GN Arms type-E, an EX-S, a Sword Impulse backpack, and the stock Buster Cannons.
So just finished this wirh the crossbone maoh and the shull weapons set. Dident go as i had originally planed wasen able to get it to have six hands so had to keep the…
Hi, cant really remove the nub marks since I want to retain the original gold. I sprayed a coat of gloss over the gold parts, somehow it makes the nub marks less obvious.
All right, it was a long-long way 😀 . Finally I can say that my Jigabachi AV model is finished. I added a few modifications to the model and quite glad how it turned out. I hope you enjoy it. And you can see more photos in my profile.
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]
Need a little advice.. I started working on my Zaku II red comet.. I’ve lined all the panels.. here it is.. is it better to flat coat the parts before assembly or after? I’ve never gone this far with a gunpla model before. My hyaku shiki was the first one I panel lined (what a panel lines it has). Thanks in advance!

If paint and time is an issue, you could do them limb by limb. So take off the legs and arms, spray them when they are straight and all bent. This…[Read more]
Time is not an issue. The longer it takes the better the results. I’m just a bit scared to attempt weathering and dry brushing. Maybe on a cheaper kit. Or better yet one of my old ones.
Thanks for the advice and letting me know about the Q&A section.. I’ll look there from now on.
Made my first gunpla kit a few days ago it was the rg strike freedom I painted to red parts a metallic enamel black and positioned the skirts in the back and the detachable guns in the style of v2 gundam anyway here’s the final product mind the screw ups xD
For your 1st Gundam a RG, and the Strike Freedom… You did a great job, regardless of the screw ups.
It’s probably the hardest grade to begin with!
Anyway welcome to the world of Gunpla
Just finished my ZZ/Unicorn Ver. of the Capule. Comparison with my Turn A Kapool. These kits are great for the 4$ price tag and the best 8$ I have spent in a long time! Hope to see a HG of this kit in the future but till then this is a great addition to my collection.
Just started building gundam again.. here is my first finished kit.. ms-06s is next. Any suggestions are gladly welcome.. I’m getting further into it with panel lining and such.. thanks for looking!
Gold…. Nice….
Glad you took up building gunpla again. Never can have enough “brothers in arms” LOL
One tip when you’re going to do panel lines and or painting, do some research on which paints and clear coats to use. Need any help, just post some questions, we’re here to help.
Enjoy your builds
