    #WIP MG Destiny Gundam custom painted build. Once again the amazing weather has meant my progress on this build has been really quick as the paint has been really easy to do! I’ve gone for the original colour scheme of the Destiny, however I have panel scribed lots of my own details and areas of the armour to give the MG the two tone style of the…[Read more]

    @drAInbAmAgE thank you for your help, i will get gloss coat for the waterslides and then probably a flat final top coat, although im undecided at the moment, however could i ask you what brand of topcoat you use? e.g. Mr Hobby or Tamiya? and also how many cans of top coat you think i would need? sorry if im being a pain i just want to get it right 🙂

    Great build whatever mistakes youve made i cant see them, it looks good! Can i just ask what top coat did you use? is it a fat top coat on top of a gloss topcoat that im asumming you applied before decaling?

  • Oli8all posted a new activity comment 9 years, 8 months ago

    i think its the full burst version, looking at the shinny gold areas, the extra finish is silver.

  • Oli8all posted a new activity comment 9 years, 8 months ago

    this is looking great! i love the look of this kit, have you painted it? or is it straight from the runner? as i love the blue colour. Good Luck with the rest of build 🙂

    Thanks mate, i will do that then, would it make a difference though if i applied the decals with no gloss coat?

    • gloss coat ur model then add decals then do whtever coat u want to afterwards

    • Yeah, you might get silvering (caused by air behind the water slide) of the water slides if you choose not to topcoat first. I made the mistake of not coating my RG RX-78-2 and some of the water slides slivered on me.
      Take a peek at some of the pics ive posted. Those the result of gloss top coat -> decals -> gloss top coat. you can replace the…[Read more]

    @Nick, if it were up to me I would have all the see destiny kits in MG! It does make me wonder why bandai never made the blast impulse… It doesn’t make sense why only make to put of the three!?

    • dont worry about it im gunna bet itll come out as a premium release just to piss us all off like the destiny impulse kinda expected it could be premium but also upsetting becasue it comes out now

      • I don’t really mind the MSV kits that never showed up in the shows (Astray variants), straightup recolors (Rezin’s Geara Doga) or kit bashes (Destiny Impulse) being P-Bandai as it’s pretty easy to kit bash or paint yourself.
        But then the are ones like the Banshee Norn, Neo Zeong Psycho Shard and Hi-Nu weapons pack which really should come out in…[Read more]

    Hi Guys, I’m looking to apply both Waterslide and dry transfer decals onto my painted MG Destiny build once I have finished painting it that is. I just wanted to know of there’s any specific way to get the best finishes or with out error… e.g. Applying clear coats? And is so gloss or flat first etc? If anyone can help it would be much appreciated

    Aha Thanks Again 🙂 I am really happy with this English weather it’s rant that I can just crack on with painting the kit! I planned to follow the original colour scheme of the Destiny as close as possible so I’m grateful that you send the colours were spot on. As you know the blue is the hardest but I have some ideas… But you will have to wait…[Read more]

    Thank You @daverb! I think that it helps to break up the panels and gives a more realistic but still clean look to the kit. 🙂

  • Oli8all posted a new activity comment 9 years, 8 months ago

    Look really nice! The finish looks great… For the clear coat are you going to apply a gloss coat before the decals? And then a flat coat after?

    Since this year is the tenth anniversary of Seed Destiny (please tell me if I’m wrong), but because of that I wish that we could get a MG Legend or MG Akatsuki… I just feel that it’s only right as they did it with the seed kits. Anyone else agree?

    • MG Blast Impulse! No? Okay never mind…

    • Still waiting for MG Justice

    • I wouldn´t mind a Freedom 2.0 and Destiny 2.0 (after seeing those RGs i just want 2.0 MGs) MG Legend,MG Akatsuki…so many cool looking MS in Seed and Seed Destiny lol

      • @Ryu Shiro i agree! i wouldn’t mind a 2.0 Freedom and Destiny as i think that those kits are a little plain now… thats why at the moment i am re painting and detailing my MG Destiny in the style of the the RG Destiny and i think it just looks so much better than being plain. Plus i really would like the Legend and Ataksuki, plus the Justice!…[Read more]

    • Gaia Gundam, I want MG Gaia Gundam. : P

    • They sure blew it with the Destiny MG’s, all we’ve received so far is the Strike Rouge Ootori. Where are Legend, Akatsuki, Saviour and the 3 stolen suits?

    #WIP: I’ve been really busy with my MG Destiny this week! The beautiful sunny weather here in England and it being a summer holiday means I can really get on with the painting…

    • great job! i was planning on doing the same 2-tone RG style with my MGs. not very fond of the mostly white color schemes. good to see it will look and work great with the MGs as well 🙂

    • Again, awesome paint job. Looks really great. Very nicely done, the two tones on one piece of armor. A very good masking job I have to say.
      Also like your color choice, but the color choice for the V fin is spot on!
      Now I’m so curious on the selected blue color…..
      Ps, nice to know the weather in England is nice. On the other side of the pond…[Read more]

    Thanks mate, really tried my best to bring out the detail of the inner frame and I’m really pleased with how it’s turned out the paint colours are amazing! Defiantly use the technique and ideas. I look forward to seeing how your destiny turns out! Good luck and speak soon
