about paints, go to a hobby store. its not worth it to buy paints online. they are usually just as expensive online and you would have to pay shipping as well. i only buy special paints online like the UV paints and pigments that i got. |

I don't have a hobby store that sells paint around me, and I'm at work 12 hours a day, 7 days a week including holidays.
Sometimes a day or 2 off in a week, but never on holidays. So~~ Online is my only way to get most things aside from groceries. But even those I get online too LOLOLOL |

Just a few colors... Red, Blue, White, Black, Yellow, Clear Orange, Clear Green, Clear Purple, Metallic Green... That's about it. =D Oh and a flat top coat. |
Well either way, I'm happy they released the MG marasai. More kits more fun in the end. It's all a matter of being careful not to bankrupt yourself buying them all lol.

MG today is mainly on articulation than frames now

I know the American ones are not bad while the German ones are pretty good(which are the ones I get being in Europe and all) But as far as I've seen the Revell of Germany kits today are pretty good, just as good as top brands like Tamiya. Also I love Revell of Germany decals, some of the best I've seen. |
I go mainly for MG for:
a. scale b. quality & color separation (i.e. no need to use stickers) c. more pieces for price d. articulation e. inner frame f. gimmick (LED's, opening hatches, etc) It's why I try to stay from SD and RG.. And go with MG. If they don't have a kit in MG, I try No Grade 1/100. If that's not available, then HG since we know they do everything in HG at least. |

compared to bandai the quality was terrible though. slightly warped and bent pieces, they didnt come out of the mold correctly here and there, it was just more frustrating overall. and to stay on topic, i have just finished the last model that i got in japan, the HG AGE-3 normal. http://www.abload.de/img/img_1034ylya0.jpg here it is next to my somewhat salvaged jesta (at least it looks presentable now... the frosting was so bad the entire kit was completely white!) someone here said that the AGE-3 was a waste of money. i completely disagree! its an awesome model^^ great articulation, very sturdy overall and many subtle channels for panel lines. i really dont regret that i bought it! on the other hand i got it for just 1200 yen, i guess a kit really needs to be a total failure to be disappointing at that pricepoint! XD |
The age 3 is pretty cool. I think I would use it for kitbashing though. Some cool stuff I could use to make one of a kind suits. Probably even bash the age 2 and 3 normal lol.
|
Your Age-3 looks good, Appel. And yeah I’m sorry for your Jesta :heh:. You can use it for kitbash though ;).
As for me, I’ve done finishing my Pink Tieren. Cute pink gunpla collection starts now :D! Spoiler for Not that much:

im not a big fan of the tierens in general to be honest^^ you did a good job on it though! |

Tieren looks like something you'd find in Front Mission or AC but even then, they would do a better job at looking cool than what Bandai has done with the Tieren. I don't need every MS to look "cool" but I really am not fond of the Tieren either. However the pink works, I think I might pick up some pink paint and try something out:p |
i never understood why the taozi was pink anyway :P
sure, grey would be boring and it is piloted by a girl but still... on the one hand the gundam franchise is supposed to be more realistic but then they throw bright pink and shiny golden machines at us! XD |
Anyone build the Kyrios 1/100 ng? I'm wondering if it's worth picking up. I don't mind having to do mods to it, just wonder if it's a complete and total waste of money.

SEED Destiny: Zaku Concert Lacus 00: Tieren Taozi (Soma’s) AGE: Farsia Maybe it’s a new trend? Maybe pink MSs sells well or something? :heh: As for the logic in having pink suit in the middle of a battle...well...maybe it’s to seduce the enemy? It works with Allelujah & Flit :D. |
