Me...want...NAO

And I'm gonna guess a fiery background for Nataku.
The others...:confused:

I'd say a shower of bullet casings or piles of them around Heavy arms, and Nataku hmm.. I would have to go with Critias with a fiery back ground but with streams of fire coming everywhere.. Sandrock, put him in a sandstorm with a faint silhouette and his eyes glowing through the sand. lol.. Cheers

Hey guys, I had a quick question: Is it better to apply decals/stickers before or after topcoat? Thanks.

I usually do it before. The topcoat keeps them sealed in.

got my MG sword impulse this week!^^
i finished the main boddy now and i will build the weapons and the shield today.
its a great kit! thanks for recommending it guys!

So topcoat helps with stickers too?

Well it keeps them from peeling off.

But they won't add anything to the stickers themselves? Still, might be worth it.

Well it also helps cover up the stickers' edges, so they end up looking more like decals.

That sounds interesting. I've found a local shop that sells tamiya paint-stuff, so when it's less cold outside, I'll buy some and try it out.

there is a small preview of nataku boxart



frm gundam guy

does anyone else have the problem with sword impulse that he cant hold ANY of his weapons? >:O on the swords the slots for the peg on the hands are too wide, the beam boomerangs dont have slots at all and the beam rifle doesnt want to stay in place as well...

My MG Sword Impulse can hold its weapon well enough. For me, i use the articulated hands to hold the beam boomerang & it work just fine. While the beam rifle can be hold either by 2 articulated hands or the other 2 traditional molded hand. Its just a matter to get the right pose & distribute the sword weight.Hope it helps...:D

Sorry mobile phone pics...XD

i tried both the articulated manipulators and the molded ones but it just wont work... oh well, i just have him standing on my shelf now, fully equipped with only the rifle in the right hand. still looks pretty nice! and i threw a few decals and seals on it to support the look, usually i dont bother doing that :P

I see...well be extra careful with those hands. Agree,the red color scheme & the big sword made it look pretty nice indeed. I like the FAITH decal,it make the kit look great.Too bad i lost it...anyway the kit look great with all of its decal.:D

Wonder what differences are there between this new MG Wing and the old ver ka.

Anyone know?

yeah, i noticed that i need to be careful with them...
i got the sword impulse mainly because of its design^^ i HATE shinn but his suit is pretty badass... and when you combine both swords its actually longer than my PG astrays gerbera straight! O_O
i chose to put the ZAFT decal on its shoulder though^^ i like that logo more

as far as i have heard its not just a re-release of the old wing ver.ka with better colors but they completely revampted the kit! i cant find a source to confirm that though...

LOL @ Char's White Base. It looks pretty good.

From the ad that was posted before along with a potential Nataku art:
MG Wing will have "Runner color is changed along to new settings", "new marking designed by Katoki Hajime", and new parts to pose Wing on an Action Base (both in MS mode and Bird mode)

Not quite an overhaul but a solid deal for those who don't have the Ver. Ka yet.
