Retook shots of the kit. This time I feel I have better lighting. I had problems posing the many different configurations. The kit also fell twice and had to glue certain parts. Sorry for spamming.
‘The only restriction on modification is that no photos can be touched up in order to alter the appearance of any enhancements, or imperfections of the kit.’ from that I’d assume no, personally
UPDATE 3: Bashing specific parts and perfecting the paint job. Meant to post this update earlier but needed to do some house work. Next update will be prior to clear coating…
Last wip images because my memory card on the camera seems to be malfunctioning and eating images so i lost a bunch of stuff and this is all thats left.
Attached the Ragondin…
Once again thank you very much for commenting and following the build and i’m glad you found the buildup interesting and one day i wanna see you build your own monster robot. 😉
Thank you!!! i think we are all a little crazy around here , i’m up against some awesome builds as it is and you never know one of your kits could be bumped up to Advanced and then we would all be in for an even tougher fight. 😀
Thank you Java! But I do not hope! The competition is already very tough with 322 participants in my category, so with a hundred crazy like you, I think I will fast drown! XD
WIP 06: Masked up the blue thrusters on the bottom of the feet and finished off the grey pieces. Masked up the vents on the legs and also added an extra rectangle…
Well i have to keep things suspenseful until it’s finished or it would be no fun. 😉
The decals are gold foil i’m pretty sure i bought from hobbycraft a while ago.
Really awesome mate! We’re not worthy 😉
I really dig how smart you use stuff like gold stickers and other card making stuff (like the halfbead peral things).
Paint is ace too.
Finally got the figure in the right posture. It’s harder than I thought. Guess I’ll need another two weeks before painting starts. Time is running out!
WIP 05: Most of the inner frame is now painted, I ran out of crocodile clips to paint all the parts in one sitting. Another painting session planned for Friday, which I’ll finish off the dark grey frame parts.
I have built and painted the weapon and also painted the troops and a few extra parts.
I put the material over the arms and have glued the armour on.
I will add some extra detail to everything shortly.
What is it this time you troublemaker. 😉
Thanks mate yeah I don’t know what to call the weapon either, looks like a giant deadly plexor that the doctors use to test reflexes. 😀
Yeah its red cloth but painted a darker red then a lighter red on top for shading with a little bit of weathering applied, the paint stiffens up the material and…[Read more]
WIP 04: Finally got started painting. The red parts are painted light blue and the dark blue parts are now a popping orange. I’ve also just started priming the grey frame pieces. Slowly but surely with this build.
In this episode Todd is probably a little too excited talking about the newest Option set while Syd finally finished the MG Providence Gundam and brings everything out for all to see.
I want the next RG to be ground gundam. Then the fragile mess that will be the unicorn that then would only not be in RE 1/100 as the only active line that it doesn’t have at least 1 version.
HGUC Tristan seems to be reusing the old HGUC Alex mold, can’t say i’m not skeptical about that. Love the design, but i’m not super confident the kit’s going to live up to modern expectations. MG Justice is looking awesome, now to debate whether I want this or the RG. The HG Dantalion is what i’m the most hype or here, the design is so sick, and while i’m scared for color separation due to it being an HGIBO kit, the design wins it for me anyways. Fumina fanservice needs to stop, the new Petit’gguys are interesting with their signs. Schwarz Ritter is looks absolutely sick, the lame gold is lame, but the design is an absolute winner, I want one. The Ground Gundam S looks epic, that beam effect makes me instantly interested, now I want to see it colored. I’m extremely hype for the Barzam, I really love the design of Barzam, and this HG looks awesome. It’s nice to finally have one, and I definitely want one. The new chara’gguys are interesting, i’d like to see more though.
The RG gold frame Amatsu Mina looks completely killer. Even with the lame gold, even that looks passable-ish due to the multiple shades, and that’s my only problem done with. The accessories are epic, the gloss black is beautiful, the detail is super well done, and the design is extravagant, this is a must buy for me. Super Fumina fanservice needs to stop. Already got my own FM Bael WIP, and it’s looking to be an awesome kit. I’m so happy with the stand, it’s such a great addition and i’m happy I own it. The Origin Special Ver. just replaced the original Origin (heh) on my wishlist. They’re adding 2 LED colors, a poster, and a new v-fin, all on the original already awesome MG RX-78-02 Origin? Wishlist prioritised to the max.
The Option Set 9 looks awesome, i’m extremely happy they gave us green Landman Rodi legs, that means non-painters can already get the Landman in brewers colors. Not to mention the other stuff like the Scharfrichter Geirail parts, Graze Ground Type parts, Rebake rifles, and a nice bonus for a Barbatos Lupus Rex Repair, that’s awesome. MG Providence looks like a beast, the detail is nice, the presence is huge, and the articulation looks awesome, the waist joint scares me though. Probably going to get the regular version, the stand is awesome but the price is a bit high for that and decals I won’t really use. Nice to be given the option though,
Hi! Nice episode. 🙂 I would like to have an RX-78-2 Origin because I still haven’t got any Grand Daddy since i started building Gunpla. And what better way to have it than winning it from HLJ. 🙂 🙂 🙂
No more IBO series !!! I hope for season 3 or they should keep up with the manga. I want to see all the gundam frames in the IBO gundam series. That HGUC gundam tristan looks interesting.
Loving Gundam thunderbolt. Looking forward to some ass kickin mg’s this year. Also if I win the origin kit it’s my first rx78 kit. Fingers and toes crossed………..
Finally I see a few new mecha designs that I really like! That ms from a side story of IBO it’s very interesting! Strange but cool at the same time.
What could be the next Rg? Only Bandai knows it. Since now the Rg series is 90% Gundams! So I really want to see some Zion design.
For example…the Dom Tropen! wow! And Rg Dom Tropen Ver.Ka! Wow!
Great show guys. I dont think a demon would enjoy being called Dandelion, but whatever. Providence looked great.
I havent seen an episode of Origin yet, but the RX is looking good.
Im just getting started with the mg line. I have the mg rx78-2 oyw version and im waiting on the mg zaku 2.0 i orderd from you guys. I have only built one mg and im in love with the mg line.
Excited to get my premium edition MG Providence Gundam from you guys. Much love and support. I’m new to buying kits online and the first one I bought from you guys was the MG Psycho Zaku Ver Ka had no regrets with it.
Syd:”I’ve seen your ball”
If taken out of context,very good “material”
In all seriousness though, MG line seems to follow SEED main suits.Does this mean a SEED Renaissance?Foes this mean another SEED RG?
*Shrug*Who knows
Let the nippers keep on nipping and the empty runners keep on piling,
SIEG GUNPLA!
If I win taht MG Origin I would probably kitbash it with the RGM-79C I have around.
I don’t care too much about SEED but the fact that the Providence has a ton of extra parts makes the kit seem more appealing to me. Im still crossing my fingers to see if they do more grunt suits since they released the GM Sniper. Stark Jegan and the Aqua GM.
Still working on the contest entry. Panel Line scribing is the scariest thing I have ever done to a kit (being the first time I do it).
I’m looking forward to seeing how the FM Bael differs from the HG version. I’m also anticipating whether that Astray Gold can stand up to her hype. But it doesn’t look as if they fixed Fumina’s issues with the new version. Ouch!
I’m surprised that you guys did not mention that the Gundam Tristan is using parts from the HGUC 047 Gundam Alex. A lot of people are upset about the use of old, recycled, parts limiting articulation and a cheap cop out on Bandai’s end. Also, the P-Bandai Zaku III Custom from Twilight Axis is simply a re-color of the Zaku III Custom that came out 20 years ago and this too has angered some Gunpla fans. Is Bandai simply getting lazy? What are your thoughts about this?
An RG Nu Gundam is too obvious. Seeing as they’ve covered a unicorn, build fighters and seed kit and that we’re already getting an MG ZZ. There’s only one logical solution, RG Neo Zeong. But srsly an RG f91/ crossbone/x
/god Gundam would be great
Theeey’ve got…a power you cannot seee with your eyes.
Theeey are…feared by nubs, loose joints, and large stickers.
Nooothing…will ever take them down!
Gunpla lies on their sie ie ie ie ieeeeeeeeede!
GO GO SYD AND TOM!
GO GO SYD AND TOM!
GO GO SYD AND TOM YOU MIGHTY GUNPLA BUILDERS!!!
I have the MG Providence (special version) in my Private Warehouse. This video is just teasing me to have it delivered already. I am only holding off because i am waiting for the MG Freedom 2.0 (Dramatic Combination) to restock so i can have them delivered together. (Any word on a restock coming soon?)
Oh also, you really upped the ante there Master Syd. MG 78-02 Origin Ver. Now that is even more exciting to work on. Maybe my lucky stars will smile on me now. Thanks for the videos guys. The reviews really help me plan ahead on what to work on, on kits i have already ordered.
Just wanted to mention that those IBO-stickers that came with the 1/100s are same that came with the IBO-stand campaign you had earlier this year. There were also C and D stickers which had the Seven Stars and Turbines logos.
Question about the plamo competition my sister doesnt have a credit card or any means to shop online so when he wants stuff from your site she does it on my account and she pays me. so i was wondering if she can enter the competition.
I already have the Origin but it would be pretty cool to win it for my friend. He’s a big RX-78-2 fan. an’t wait to see the Bael. Looks great and was pretty cool int he show. Too bad we won’t be getting a 1/100 Kimaris Vidar?
That MG Providence is a BEAST!! I’m looking forward to getting mine and waiting on the MG Justice Gundam to finish up the Seed Gang! I really hope they announce the RG Nu-Gundam at the hobby show. Imagine the possibility of an RG Sazabi after that~ It would be MASSIVE!
Hope they make an mg legend now.for those who dont know the legend gundam is the upgrade of providence like freedom to strike freedom or justice to infinte justice
Great Show, Started to watch from the begining now I’m at episode 178, and wanted to check out if you still habe the give away. I hope I can win this kit.
Now you didn’t hear this from me, but I wager the new RG is a Shining Gundam to commemorate the upcoming Olympic games. Y’know the one they’re making 1/1 RX-78 walk for?
What do you think the chances are of bandai launching a 1/100 RG or MG+ line? I want to make complicated things, but I get intimidated by the 1/144th scale.
Really, really, really hope that Bandai is gonna do something about the lack of Gundam 00 MGs. Hopefully we get accelerate evolution gundam 00 kits (not Setsuna’s) or even FLAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGSSSSS
There are days that it seems we’re doing nothing but masking. But it pays off at the end of the work. It’s one of the most satisfying phases of the build.
