The original HG Seravee knee cannons do not have holes though, you can't just swap the hands in.

omg drollllllllllingggggggggggggg, that looks wicked!!!

hopefully they release a 1/100 version cos that just looks too awesome to pass up!

Too pinkish?

The head disappoints

Yea, its too bright. I thought it has the same color as throne drei.

Duotiga: Can u explain how u do that? I mean step by step.

to make it simple, i swap the A10 part from seravee with A14 part frm seraphim.

see the manual and observe......

maybe its because of the lighting effects or its just me,

& the head unit?, yeah it looks very un-gundam-like, reminds me of the Doben Wolf units from ZZ gundam for some reason,

hey atleast the head unit's design doesn't end up like a Turn A's or something......

I mean it doesn't really look show accurate, or maybe it's just the angle

I like the overall design but the color in this pic... I seriously hope it looks different in reality...

Just wanted to share this video I chanced upon. Somewhat related to Gundam model kits..

Kshatriya, handmade piece by piece from felt. :eek:

I have so far built my first gunpla it was a 1/100 Kyrios. Was quite fun but I have always wondered why the 1/144 models are favored over the 1/100's?

Also when doing a matt coat to the model should you do it at the end once its all assembled or while its still in the sheets?

1/100 tend to be No Grade (NG), which offers lesser detail than the High Grades (HG), which is offered in 1/144 scale. NGs has a lesser range to choose from than HGs too, if you study the HG 00 line. Other than that, it would be a matter of preference since 1/144's are easier to work with being smaller in size.

If by in the sheets you mean coating while the parts are still on the trees(the main bunch of plastic you cut the parts off from), then no. As a general rule of thumb, topcoating is done last to protect the model from dirt and dust. Try to clean the kit of dust and oil before you do so since the topcoat will trap any surface materials underneath when it dries.

Yeah I meant the tree's.

Thanks for clearing up the 1/100 vs 1/144 thing for me!

the purple condensers on arche's leg is missing!!

And you know this... how? I mean, the condensers are shown on the outside of the joints, not the inside... and we can't see the outside of the joints.

Can't wait till I lay my hands on my very own MG Sword Impulse. I also expect BANDAI to release the Blast Impulse to round up the collection for thias beautiful kit.

I also can see them releasing a MG Savior beforehand ;D

I can go for a MG Savior, it was pretty much the only gundam in destiny that i liked. I even maxed out the MS in SD Gundam G Generations for PSP.
