Pretty good job, although it bugs me how you keep calling the pistol a piston.

Were the beam sabers, pistol, and sniper rifle all scratch built? They look nice. I especially love the gold color of the missles, it really makes them stand out.

Yeah MAD COOL, too bad the model itself is still too bulky imo.
but darn those are some real cool effects.

Enjoy!
Hopefully the next one will be Zaku I Ramba Ral Custom

Now that looks cool. I hated the way the orginal looked I didnt like its feet or shoulder armor this is more GMish. The thing that makes suits really stand out r legs and arms This gyan looks really mobile and quic where the orginal was really blocky i dont like suits like that.

those arms and legs really reminds of th3e MG Master Gundam
and thats pose too

thks all for the kind comments. :)

sorry I mispelled pistol as piston....haha....

the beam sabers, pistol, and sniper rifle weren't scratch built. I had them taken from another 2 models, and one of them is not a gundam model.

you might want to check out my double X also

because it's based on MG Master Gundam kit ^ ^
well head/hadns/wing-less junk that was...

maybe I should call it Gyan Ver. Ka ^ ^

this would be pretty cool.

Wow where can I get those models :D. Those are really nice.

Friggin awesome as usual.

Where did the two gatling guns come from? I remeber see them (or similar ones) somewhere but I can't recall where.

The gatling guns were scratch built. I based them off helicoptor gatling guns. Went with three barrels each for a little but of realism... 5/6 barrel gats would be fairly heavy... multiplied by two.

Here's a picture of the gatling gun while I was building it:
http://www.gamerabaenre.com/images/0...%20092_jpg.jpg
The barrels were aluminum rods, I use strene for the barrel supports. The main gun piece is from the MG Z'Gok's backpack thruster internals and the ammo drum is from a wave option pack of medium size cylinders. The little tube is an option part I picked up from mechaskunk.com little fiberglass sleeve tubes using an MG Gouf custom's waist coil thingy for shape.

1/100 Saviour is out!!!!

Wow that looks nice unfortantaly i only buy MG 1/100s these days i love gimicks and armor removal and all normaly HG 1/100 just dont apeal to me anymore.

Wow I need that Saviour Gundam now, that is awesome.

The boxart looked really nice. If only someone would do a Proto-Saviour with the +11 pack >.> .

gosh how many Suzumiya Haruhi figures do you have ?:)

Is that all you can notice? :heh: :heh: I mean, take notice of the Crimson Kampfer dude, I mean, it looks real nice lol :heh:

On a side note, good job GB. You might have remembered that comment I made about "stealing some of yours". I actually meant stealing some of your time, since you look like you have an awful large amount of it...lol...:heh:

geez i am not that kinda noob
this is a GUNDAM models dicussion board after all

Heh.. those Haruhi's are currently eating up all my attention... I still have tons of work left on the Kampfer including a base with a half buried NT-1 Alex... I actually wish I had more time to build... not enough hours in the day... other than time spent at work and time spent sleeping... I pretty much spend most of my free time building....

I only have 2 haruhi's... lots of work on those girls... just gotta keep the kampfer away... although resin dust could be an interesting method of additional weathering....

Edit.. it've always cool to have people notice the small details sitting just off center in the background :)

are you going to make some kind of diorama then ?
if so i cant wait to see it :p :D

Yep. Take a look over at this link: http://www.gamerabaenre.com/0080_desert_dio_prog.htm
It's the complete progress page. Everything that's been done so far is documented here :) I still need to paint the Alex. As well as a bunch of other things...

i wish for that also....but high chances are is in HG 1/144....

Just a question, do you guys fully assemble then paint or build parts and paint and then assemble it? And do you you use the Gundam Markers or do you use the Tamiya paints?

Actually someone did that with the Destiny Astray photonovel.

Depends, some parts should be painted seperately, while others should be assembled first, then painted. Some sections have a seam that is ugly and needs to be fixed, so those need to be glued, sanded, then painted.

As for gundam markers... they are overpriced pens. Painting with them just does not look good. They're designed for highlighting details and such. And in my own opinion, there are much easier and better ways to do details than relying on gundam markers.

Tamiya paints are very nice to work with. They can be cleaned up with water or alcohol.

Model Kits Shops in Shangai?
 

Hi!
I have to go in Shanghai for work (I'm from Italy), and I'd like to know some good model kit shops.
In Italy large models like perfect grade are very expensive, e.g. the Zeta Gundam PG cost something like 450 Euro :twitch: , and shipping costs from USA, HK or Japan are very hight, so I want to take advantage of this travel!
Can some Chinese friend help me?
Thanks to all!

New images of 1/100 Saviour HG
 

Those interested in seeing some more pics of the new Saviour 1/100 model can go view them here:
http://www.geocities.jp/hetare_d_max...0_Saviour.html

there's method called C-joint(?) mod.
this basically means you modify the female part of pin so you can take the block apart even after glue the parts. This makes thing easier for painting. Or fabricating/cutting section/s along the panel line so you can pull things apart...
you will often see those sections of arms and legs pull apart on HJ/DJ magazine photos.

for marker the only one I use is Chrome Silver. It's quite handy one to have an frankly only thing worth to buy imho

Wow...a GERWALK-mode with the Saviour...lol

I didn't know that was actually possible. I can't wait to buy myself one and try that myself.

Haha, the gundam double X. I missed the chance to get one 6 years ago, and until very recently then i manage to get my hands on them. I bought 3 in one short out of impulse though...hahaha..... the information i got from the shopkeeper is that bandai will reproduce some of the models per 5 years span, so now there should be some gundam souble X in the market....

anyway, I understand they are for sale in Seiyu in singapore, with the falcon unit. U might want to try that out.

Most probably for the other 2 gundam double X, i will make one black and the other chrome, then add freedom's parts to it to see the effect.

Wah, that took me by surprise too!!! maybe i should try with my 1/144 model first. I'm sure it can work also!

saviour vs chaos is getting interesting.
MS vs MS in space, dogfighting in air, now GERWALK modes XD

are the cannons supposed to be that huge? it looks awkward deployed.

For Stargazer...this is so sad...is stickers.....

That's expected. Any verteran toy collectors could see this coming by looking at the price tag and giving the ideas behind the gimmicks some thoughts.

Man now i have to decide what ones i wanna put one :frustrated:

I need to decide between the 1/100 Amatu and the MG Strike IWSP >.> .
