Out.

Just finished Saviour.
Bought it a while ago, but never got the chance to do it

MakubeX2 · 2006-12-19, 16:53

Seems that they are giving the small catalog away with the normal edition too. Saying that, the only things good about the booklet are the last 2 pages.

lol @SF at lower right, it seems like with its saber swing theres a good chance of cutting its own left wing off.

I just built a 1989 era Rick Dom II

I'm wondering if it was a mistake to take it out of the original shrink wrap [ antique value ]

MakubeX2 · 2006-12-19, 23:44

Could this be it ? The long delayed redesign of Epyon ?

SNT1 · 2006-12-20, 00:29

is that official? I dunno, it loses the menacing spikiness and overall badass look of the Okawara Epyon. Right now it looks like.... Athrun Zala use.

Tak · 2006-12-20, 00:35

That looked like a mix between Virtual On, Athrun Zala, Epyon and Super Robot Wars.

Yeah, that must be it.

Why is the red so pale? I noticed that a lot of red colored Gundam models kits have a really pale red like the Saviour, Justice, and Infinite Justice kits.

I cannot read Japaneese, so I hope I am correct in assuming that we'll see a MG Destiny according to the Showdown pics.

Tak · 2006-12-20, 11:44

Actually, thats just a bonus poster included in the special edition of the MG Freedom.

Although the idea of a MG Destiny isn't bad.

DarkWarrior · 2006-12-20, 11:59

Well, looks like the MG Destiny isn't too far away now.. they better have a special version that has the WoL attachments.

Edit: Oh crap, that's the poster? I was expecting some nice artwork of Strike Freedom.. not a big advertisement showing off all the features of the special version. Bah!

Uh, Saviour isn't a pale red. And I guess the tradition of pinkish mobile suits goes back to Char's custom suits, which were more pinkish than red.

Ok so hi, complete nooby to the custom modeling scene. Though after looking through this thread I so want to now.

So a few questions, like is it the paint or is there a technique to geting the non-glossy look on the models? Also I have never worked with poxy or what ever I see get used on alot of the models to fully customize them with is it hard? And does any one have like a link to a walk through of custom modeling or working with poxy that is in english?

My goal is I love this custom http://www.geocities.jp/kxm3002/DESTINY01.htm but I can see ALOT of poxy which I'm obviously not ready for yet but the backpack on it isn't included in the base model of the 1/100 box kit any idea where its from cause it adds so much to the look of the model.

Many thanks in advance for any one who is willing to help a new guy out.

Also any suggestions on a few good starter models to customize that look good? I have like 15 models completed from factory box no customizations but most of them are 144 which I would rather just buy a few 100s to make them look awesome and of a good size to display.

Meehlimo · 2006-12-20, 17:49

Know whats really frightning about that destiny its the HG 1/144 wow thats amazing detail for such a small model.Props to the modeler.

X207 · 2006-12-20, 18:20

hey ppl. i hav had this blitz gundam 1:144 model for a long time. hadnt bothered to post it cause paint job was bad. some movement in the legs (bak and forth) and basic arm movement, detachable claw and sheild and i can change position of claw by changing the claw itself. basically its nothing special as far as posability goes.

had to paint this much cause it came with blue/greyish plastic

wat do u think, im hav no particular ability to paint extremely well but it turned out pretty good imo

and ya camera i used wasnt too good that or i just had model too close to camera itself

Meehlimo · 2006-12-20, 19:14

not bad looks better wit the purple on there.

lycantivis · 2006-12-20, 19:21

So I have never done a master grade or custimized before, so I have been shoping for a model to start with. The ones that caught my eye were GP-02A from 0083, FAZZ full armor, IWSP, and the sazabi. All of which are kinda exspencive compaired to the 1/144s and the gundam X 1/100s I have already. Any sugestions on either of those four that one should stand out?
