Hi all. new here and to this layout of “forum”. have recently started getting into some Gundam etc figures but still to start my first build.

Honestly been busy lately and is first time in a while to sit down and build. But looking at the updates really inspired me, got further on my unicorn build and thinking about the paint scheme for my next unicorn kit!
Interesting idea. This Delta could turn out great (or not). The big question about it. Will it transform?
PS. I cannot wait to see the legs assembled – cause right unless you heavy modify the steins trusters they will look awkward (im not sure if they will hide the orginal Delta leg thrusters ).
All in all good luck with the build. And if its…[Read more]
Well I can tell you that it will not transform. The legs are the only parts of the delta that I’m using. I didn’t mod the steins thrusters yet but when I test fit the part of the thruster that connects to the arm it looked good and didn’t completly hide the delta thruster
I’m confident that it will look good when I’m finished
I completed my first Master Grade Gundam kit, the Freedom Gundam. I enjoyed building it. But, I’m not happy with the final model. It just doesn’t have enough detail. When I…
The age of a kit does make a difference. 10 years ago, that kit would have looked great compared to it’s HG version. I think there is a new version of it, though I wouldn’t quote me on that as I dislike anything SEED related, as they release WAY to many SEED kits.
A good example of the age of a kit effecting the overall detail, is to look at the…[Read more]
That’s awesome to see someone else’s same kit! I just finished building a freedom as well but never posted any pictures. Honestly I thought the age of the kit would be a problem, but I had a lot of fun with it and thought it was really well done for its age
The freedom is my all time fav MS. I do agree with you about the details are lacking. But when it came out it would have been great. I got a 1/60 NG ver, that has very similar level of detail. But in the size I prefer plus a bit of paint helps. But they do lack in comparison to the RG line. But I fined the best version of the Freedom is the metal…[Read more]
The detail and paint you are putting into this zaku is awesome! I have on waiting to get built but I don’t think I will be able to get that look and detail like you have.
Hey Joe! thanks for the comment! Get encouraged man! it’s really easy to add some personal touch to these models so it doesnt end up being a straight out of the box build. Just put some bronze and silver to pistons or the little parts that are visible when you bend the legs and arms! The rifles usually get some love too, i just color all the…[Read more]
Yea definitely gonna try it haha, thinking I might give it a shot on my unicorn MG I am currently building, because you are definitely right, you have to add some personal touch so that they are your kit!
Working on making a Unicorn Gundam have a wolf theme to it. I might re paint it a different colour, but currently this one is still incomplete with a couple of missing items.
srry but thats gunna be pretty hard u could try gentei kits but im pretty sure its sold out if not ebay is ur best place but be ready to spend alot on it since its gunna be pretty difficult to get considering it came out a while ago
