So... I'll probably get an MG Hi Nu when I get around to it. Although, I don't like the blue they use. Perhaps it would look nice in a warm red?
And the new Akatsuki model looks nice. I love the strike's design, so I may be tempted to pick up the Akatsuki(oh come on, we all know that the Ak is Strike MK2 in gold). But if I were to get any gold model, Astray gold comes first.... |
Anyone know the exact date for the release of the Hi-Nu gundam?
|
Wow, Hi-Nu has a compact kneeling pose, as Dalong posed in one picture. Man I had problems doing that with my MG-Nu :heh: :heh:
Looks kinda good unpainted, although....never really thought about the silver. Looks.....chromed lol. |

556,000 Yen at time of posting...... And growing.... |
Sorry for bringing back old news, but for those who own the MG Strike Freedom, I have a question regarding the wing's wearing down issue: Is it true that if you keep rotating them back and forth, they'll eventually wear down. I read back a few hundred pages, and someone said that the parts must be perfectly lined up in order to prevent the wearing from happening. Is that true?

but it's still no match for the sexyness of the original freedom:heh: |

Iv not done much of said moving...prolly only a few times to pose it and whatnot...but one of the binders has gotten rounded on the inside making it hard for the mechanism to work properly |
Sorry for not totally understanding, but when you said "making it hard for the mechanism to work properly," did you mean the wings were loose or hard to move?

Refer again to "Murphy's Laws of GunPla" -- majority of the kits are just recolors of an older kit. :p Mildly Off-Topic: GunPla is a life-threatening hobby. Last tuesday I was cutting up some styrene plate to scratch-build some "Stutzer" parts--when I slipped and stabbed my left middle finger with an X-Acto knife. Ow. |

Hey, thanks for clarifying.
Gotcha. One more question: Which type of sand paper is most appropriate for modeling? I've used one (not sure what type it was) but it really scratched a bit on my MG Freedom. |
Hi-Nu is awesome.

The 1200 grit, however, is like abrasing without the the scratches that usually come along. The 1200 grit is so smooth, you'll wonder if you even sanded said area lol. So, I suggest, to start the sanding process, use a 800 or a 1000 Grit, and the 1200 grit to finish of the surface. You can consult here for more ideas on how many grits are usually around. http://www.ehobbies.com/tools---supp...sandpaper.html There's a 1500 grit! :heh: :uhoh: On a side note, I'm kinda wondering what Gundam is left to MG'ize. Sure, there are many others, but I wonder which one deserves the treatment more :heh: more like, what's bandai gonna think of next....like bring us a new Perfect Grade or something, last two were some sort of event chromatic things, I want to see something new! I want to see......PG Nt-1 Alex! :heh: (naw just kidding, I would like at least something with alot of gimmicks or weapons. Not stale and simple like my PG RX-78 :heh: , like, the PG RX-178 GP01 FB EFSF UNT....lol that's alot of acronymies:heh: I mean, there's mix and match power! And, I wonder if anyone manage to do a half GP01 Half FB model. Never seen someone do that to their PG GP01. I've gotta ask my brother to try that out lol) |
How Hi-Nu looks OOB with panel lines and decals, from Dalong.
http://img409.imageshack.us/img409/5237/m99pcn6.jpg From what I can understand from the online translator, Dalong is predicting a score of 99.. which is pretty damn good. I think he said that the review will go up in a couple of days.. damn I wish I understood Korean. Edit: Part 1 and Part 2 of the review are up. |
I wish that guy would learn how to panel line. He always just draws it on and never bothers wiping off the excess.

Just finished my strike freedom MG and I dont if anyone has noticed this yet but its much taller than other destiny gundams of the same 1/100 scale (See picture).
Considering Beecraft worked on both models strike freedom is much taller than Legend, its kind of awkward posing them together because of this. Why is there just a big height difference between their designs? (PS: some of you might recognize me, I'm the same subaruhess from figure.fm forum) Spoiler:
