I like what you did to Gale Strike's swords :). Did you use Gundam markers for that?

Yup, i can't really paint with pencils so i use markers.

The swords were really too blue so i added some color :).

You also might notice that i forgot to panelline his little square on the belt, i corrected that after the pictures were taken ;)

Well, if you have paints, you can use brush for some difficult corners :D.

Oh yeah, when will you build your Zeta Karaba & RX-78-3? I'd love to see that ;).

As soon as i have time, unfortunately my job is quite demanding timewise. Next will the 1/144 HG 0 Gundam (blue red white color version) and after that i promised i would finaly build one of my waiting PG's during my summer holidays. But after that the scedule is still open :D.

I am a MG or 1/100 NG only guy, but those 6 kits I think are important to the story and probably won't get an MG or 1/100 NG treatment...

Maybe the Exia R2 as I've been saying here a lot, but if it does come, I will get it then. =D

Besides, HG kits seem like they'd be fun. Like SD in terms of complexity with a few more parts and most of the colors in plastic and not that many stickers.

Do people actually use like a toothpick to paint parts?

Most number of parts wld be reborns and avalanche exia dash. Exia dash has a lot of foil stickers

I can see how Avalanche Dash Exia HG has a lot of stickers. I have the Avalanche Exia 1/100 NG and it has a lot of stickers. I haven't built that one yet as w/ my other kits.

yes, it does. probably the most sticker heavy kit i have built so far :P but since i painted it i didnt use them^^
i used an airbrush by the way, toothpicks dont work in my opinion.

I guess I could get masking tape and use a paint brush. =)

Hey uh..

ScotchBlue Painter's Tape

Would that be a good alternative to use for masking paints...? The alternative being Tamiya masking tape...

i've no experience with tamiya's tape. been using some sort of paper-like tape all these while. it's not the best but it's the cheapest i find out there. :)

So like would painter's tape be good?

o_O
I was reading reviews and read that it peels off without leaving any residue and I mean it does say painter's tape and I am using paint..lol..

I only use Toothpicks for painting on small details like the pilot figures for example.

im happy with tamiya tape. works like a charm!
as far toothpicks, it works but there are better options. like those ultra fine brushes that you can get at gamsworkshop stores.

Well I mean I just got some ScotchBlue Painter's Tape and I'm hoping I could use it for masking GunPla pieces.

>_>

The Tamiya seems a bit expensive for what you get, and I haven't had the best luck with them in the past.

A possible spoiler: https://www.facebook.com/permalink.p...06399842781514

PG Unicorn? I really doubt it, though it's popular, I think it'll cost more than PG Strike Freedom and Bandai is cost cutting. Of course, unless they're becoming generous again :)

Also, HGAC? WTF? It makes this spoiler less convincing.

As if you had to wonder if it wasn't?

Let's see if we also get:

MG Age-2 Normal (White)
MG Genoace Custom
MG G-Exes
MG G-Bouncer
MG G-EXES JackEdge
MG Dark Hound

I suspect that MG Double Bullet, MG Age-3 Normal, MG Fortress, and MG Orbital will come out soon.

Orbital's shoulder thingies looks like weapons in gunpla. I'm sure the build would be great, but the MG Age-2 details feels more of a NG 1/100.

This on the other hand, is a 1/144 MG.

That MG AGE-2 is probably going to be my only MG AGE model.

Orbital looks great, but that Justice...I died.

Not getting RG Justice would be, for a seed freak like me, UNFORGIVABLE !

So i went strait to the pre-order page :D

^ I'll just have to hope I find it when I go to Hong Kong later this year.

Indeed, it would be unthinkable not to get it.

I don't have a credit card, but that thing is bought on sight. Been holding out on getting my first RG, Justice looks set to be it.

MG AGE-2 looks good, but I'm more interested in a MG Dark Hound. Let's hope we get one soon.

So you're skipping the HG Dark Hound?

Particularly been hoping for these kinds of "Builder Parts" since the System Base 001 was released. From here.

'Unknown Soldier'? No idea what that is but it looks fabulous.

new Wing series? pretty much those are Snow White and Warlock

That Dark Hound thing just looks terribad to me, the JackEdge thing on the other hand is fabulous.

Never liked the G-Exes, but that JackEdge is changing my mind.

I suspect that we'd get MG Double Bullet in September? Oh and I wonder if we're getting the MG Age-2 Normal (White). I mean it'd be easy for Bandai since it's the exact same kit as MG Age-2 Normal with just white armor pieces. =D Easy Double Dipping TIMEZzz

if it ever comes out i think it wont be more than a limited release like the MG white zeta. :)

I guess it would make sense for it to be a limited release. =P I guess that's where GG Infinite will be very useful since they usually stock up on limited stuff..

Oh and speaking of that, why can't Bandai do a "limited" release for MG ER2? o_O

So it's finally confirmed and it's looking great.
Think when the time comes I'll pick up all 3 GATS at the same time:D
Was hoping to get my hands on the Duel sooner rather than later but guess I'll wait it out for now.

I don't even collect models and I'd love to see a MG Tallgeese I. There's nothing wrong with them releasing MGs of new suits though.
