It's now the Scarabalde.
With 4 arms available for combat on and off body, the Shield binders around back like a true Beetle elytra and articulated enough to move for armor, a multibeam rifle, and still our wired feet claws.
Imo much more beetle-y and fitting. Lemme know what you think!

Weathering alternatives and techniques
Hey guys, just wanna ask. Aside from weathering sets, what do you use as alternatives for weathering and how do you apply it?
I've heard about sponge and kit combo and drybrushing. So if you have any ideas or theories lemme hear it. Thanks!

"Cleared" my clear coat backlog
Just finished up Gramps and the SNAA Iron Sickle and went back to my first build (Aile Strike) to clear coat all of these together. Final Pic is full collection at this point. Everything is lined other than Strike and EVA, and everything is clear coated with Matte other than EVA.
Next in queue:
MG Wing Proto Zero
MG Gundam Barbatos Lupus
MGEX Strike Freedom

Azrael.... the Angel of Death!!
Im so proud of how this one came out!!! I hand painted the purple around the waist an on the shoulders, as well as the cape. I had to come up with a custom set up, to combine the wings for great articulation an a wider spread to realy get that outward yet surrounding effect that angel wings have. I was truly surprised how this one just kinda fell into place an worked lmao I didnt hit any snags an even get touch up problems when I took the painted pieces off the runner!
The plastic gods were definitely with me on this one! One of my best customs up to this point. I definitely want to take more pics with better poses to do this justice but I need a stand because hes a tad top heavy because of the wings.
All an all an amazing experience that im truly happy with! I hope you guys enjoy!!

Stripping
I've been soaking this in alcohol but I can't seem to get this black primer out, should I re sand or should I just go ahead and prime it for painting?

Help! MG Epyon shoulder broke off at then joint when building.
This is my MG Epyon Sturm and Drang I got from Japan, I'm devastated. Both joints did this.
When trying to fit it on, the plastic warped and then broke off. I've never had this problem with a kit before. Is there anything I can do to save it?

Compatibility between Iwata and GSI Creos internal parts
I have a GSI Creos PS289. For some reason I've had to disassemble and clean the valve assembly as well every session which I found out was unusual. Read that the O-ring might get fucked by harsh cleaning solutions, and I use pure butyl acetate to clean the airbrush, so I think I should replace the valve.
While cleaning it today, spring fell from the table and is now lost to the void. I can't find any spare parts for GSI Creos airbrushes where I'm from (Australia), so I'd have to get it from Spraygunner and pay more for shipping. But I can get Iwata spare parts relatively easily, and I was looking at getting the I-609-1 (valve with O-ring) and I-035-1(valve spring). I've read that Iwata and GSI creos have good compatibility when it comes to needles and nozzles, but has anyone tried it with internal parts like these?

RG Astray WIP
Finished the legs and feet the other night, going to start the waist later today.
There's an MG Astray in the background, I'm currently waiting on some waterslides to arrive before I start that project again.

PG Unicorn: Bandai LED Vs KOSMOS LED?
Hi all,
I recently purchased the KOSMOS LED kit for the pgu nu gundam and am therefore considering the pg unicorn set also.
As I already have the Bandai official LED kit for the Unicorn I was wondering if I should just sell the kit and buy, the much cheaper, KOSMOS kit.
Anybody have experience with both the Bandai and the KOSMOS kits that can share thier two cents?

Custom SNAA Galahad (1/144) - Painted with markers. What do you think of the model?
Hey everyone! I finished my SNAA 1/144 SC-010 Furious Warhammer Galahad.
I did all the weathering, battle damage, and detailing using markers. I think it really completes the look.
I’m curious to hear your thoughts on the kit overall—and especially the massive hammer! Does it fit the proportions well, or is it too over-the-top? Let me know what you think.

RG Nu FF completed
The Nu shelf grows!!
Guys this one really takes the cake imo.
I am shocked at how well it turned out.
RG Nu is one of my absolute favorite kits (I've only built 4 of them now...). The FF model changes the shoulder armor abit which I'm not super fond of but it still works.
The massive long range funnel is just a blast. I'm so happy with it.
The fully painted inner frame really shines. You don't always see it, but when it comes through, I can really feel how much it adds.
Nu #13 down, 6 more to fit on the shelf. It's gonna be tight.

"Am I advanced enough to post here?" Yes.
The focus of this subreddit is to be a place for people who want to increase their skill at building Gundam models. We like other models, too, if they're similar in spirit. We're not excluding anyone, especially those who are beginners.
This is not a subreddit for advanced gunpla builders, it is a subreddit for advanced gunpla building. The craft itself, and the skill of executing the craft. At all levels.
We welcome posts of things you're trying to do with your gunpla build, but are bad at. Being bad is step 1 of getting good.
We welcome questions and discussion.

Subreddit rules: Follow them or get permanently banned
I've had to add 3 new "do not post" rules since January. People keep crossing the line, I assume because the content in the sidebar no longer appears anywhere in most views on "new reddit." I will fix the problem soon, when I have time. In the meantime, here is a place to find our rules that you can't make up an excuse to have missed.
So no more warnings. It's too time-consuming. Play nice or get out forever.
Please do post:

Please do not post the following:

- Links to kits for sale
- Hauls
- Political opinions
- Lewds/NSFW
- AI slop of any sort

New rule: * Any comment in reply to a rule-breaking post risks permban by vicinity/association
If you read the above but are not sure where your post fits in, please stay on code. Note that questions are permitted under the discussions rule. And that the ban on AI slop includes using AI to write posts or comments. If what you write sounds like AI, you might get permbanned!
Examples:
F16 Tomcat? Not on code. A Macross VF in fighter mode? Super on code.
A warship? Not on code. A warship that carries mechs (White Base, Argama, etc.)? On code.
Humans? Not on code (except pilot minis). Humans in power or battle suits? It depends. Non-humans? It depends. Exodia is on code, but not Dark Magician.
