I officially have taken this project down the dumbest and most complicated path possible, involving giant buildings and tiny cops. Now I just have to start actually building things.

all glory to soviet zeon edit: Just finished assembling the "proper" way, with a hobby knife and sanding stick, even then, assembly only took me an evening while watching a show in the background. It's a really easy kit, just totally lame when it comes to weapons options, so I ordered some extras. Hope to see some progress posts soon!

Initial assembly complete, time to start priming and painting! Thinking about what sort of little details I could add to this scene...

Guy Goodbody posted:Secret Weapon makes some, But I think they'll be too small. There's this guy who made some just by cutting up a hypodermic needle, they look like that would work better poo poo, that's really creative. I'll give it a shot this weekend!

mrbradlymrmartin posted:hey are the guns molded into the right hand or just usually positioned there? Actually it's a custom AK-12 I ordered online, I had to file the inside of the hand down to make it fit. But no, you can put a weapon in whatever hand you want.

I've only watched Gundam 79, Thunderbolt:DS, Unicorn, and the first two Origin movies - what is the best of Gundam? I'm trying to track down Char's Counterattack at the moment.

Thanks a ton, it's nice to have them in the background while I build. Most of my Hi-Mock extras showed up today! Very excited.

Painting update. So shiny! Do I topcoat before I go in with a Gundam marker to add the little black dots on the chest and the red eye, or after? I also have a set of Soviet decals on the way

Guy Goodbody posted:That's a good robot Mecha Gojira posted:Gloss top coat if you're going to do a wash or detailing, yeah. Then after the decals and wash, do a final topcoat. Thank ye thank ye both My decals came in today! I haven't had much luck with water slides in the past so I'm hoping this gives me good practice, now I just need to figure out a layout for them.

Neurolimal posted:if anyone's in the tristate area or visiting NYC, Midtown Comics' has a pretty fun selection of gunpla, including some pretty obscure kits and sengoku SD's There's three locations! The one by Times Square has the larger selection, Grand Central is okay but not so much. If you're looking for Gunpla overload, try DaShop Corporation in Chinatown.

I'm probably going to give up on this diorama thing, I tried jumping in blind and made a loving mess of things and don't think I'm gonna get a positive result out of it in time, but thankfully I have enough leftover bits and bobs to make a cool signpost for my class traitor GM to hold as he gets crushed by the superior tankie Hi-CHAD
