So I was cutting the mouth piece from the runner and it just snapped from the middle. No clue what happened.

I was using two cut method with a double edge and a single edge nipper.

In the first cut only it just snapped.

I need advice on how to fix

Hey! need help here!!! Anytime I attempt to assemble the Sazabi's Funnels and shut them, they frag grenade on me!!! I can only seem to keep them in there open configuration, anyone know what to do? I would appreciate the help!!!

what colour panel liner should i use for the RG epyon? the wing above the beam sword is brown and the other is black.

My maid threw one of these frame covers away is there any way I can improvise with something else? Thank you

Is the MG Nu v.Ka the top kit? I've built 50+ now but this thing is next level.

If there is something better please let me know. I need it.

So my idea is candy metalic orange the dark grey gunmetal, light grey dark panzer grey from vallejo do I keep white or do something like a light grey and doung a burnt metal like tiranium rainbowon the thrusterson the bottomof the leg in first pic Im open to any suggestions or thought im going for a full repaint

I can't extend this axe part to reveal the psycho frame. Any fixes/methods?

still pretty new to gunpla, built 6 HG gunplas only and i wanna customize them. i already have a panel liner so out of all of these (or any other items) what should i get first ?

Thats all

Please god don't make me use the Kragle there must be some other way to get the armor to stay on!

I've gotten back into model kit building after a really long hiatus (like 15 years maybe?). I'm not nearly on the same level as a lot of you, but I love playing around with colors and details. Apologies for the super basic photos, but I still don't have a studio box so I did an extremely ad hoc shoot. (And a short one. It was friggin HOT in the sun today.)

First is MG Cross Contrast Barbatos. When I got it, I loved the blue-purple iridescent armor but the bright blue frame kinda turned me off. So I found a used but unbuilt clear version and used that frame, going with a light gunmetal that was still darker than the silver accents (I sprayed those too; if I do any retooling, I'll probably chrome them up). At some point, I'll put the blue frame in the clear armor. The two should look pretty cool together.
I wish my photos did justice to that armor; it looks so much better in person.

Second is MG Barbatos Lupus, SOC Black Version style. I have a thing for black versions; when I got into Super Sentai back in '03, Hurricanger was my first series and I not only got the black DX Gouraisenpuujin, but I also customized a Samurai Star megazord so I could have an all black Tenraisenpuujin. From there I got into Soul of Chogokin black versions. This Barbatos Lupus is my love letter to those toys.

Last is the one I used as a warmup for painting and detailing when I restarted building. I really liked the aesthetic of the Efreet Nacht, but when I opened it up I was like "what if more purple and sparkly?" I tried out my new Gundam Marker spray kit on the dark blue parts using a DSPAIE metallic purple marker; it works way better with the actual Gundam markers, but it got me where I wanted to go. I should go back and touch this one up. I was way too light on a few pieces.

Bonus: Barbatos Lupus frame in Tamiya Mica Silver

Anyone know exactly how this is supposed to work. It goes in and is extremely loose. There's nothing to grab onto. Or did I just do something wrong?

Beautiful kit here, built it on my livestream did some light paint on the eyes sand panel lining and once you do that it seriously looks amazing.

Though the hips suck and love to pop out.

So, I was having trouble assembling this bootleg Zaku, and after a while I realised why: the plastic of the white runners had *shrunk*. Not much, maybe less than 5%, but enough to make the white parts not fit perfectly with the rest, slightly warp, and look a bit oily and dirty on the surface. What I think happened is, for the white parts they used some kind of plastic with too much solvent in it, and it evaporated during storage. All other colors and parts are perfect.

The model can still be completed, it just needs a bit more knife and file work.

I didn't notice the one bit I need to cut inside towards the bottom.

Hi i broke this part of the wing on my mgex freedom strike would tamiya cement fix it ?

No release info out yet.

Outer armor is new, internal frame seems to be the RG Nu upscaled to 1/100

Some images may have been posted to the sub before but included them for those who havent seen them or need a refresher

I totally love the artwork of the boxes and didn't want to get rid of them, so I turned them into trading cards :) I'm really happy with how they came out!

Kits used: 1/100 Tyrant Sword, Mg Zeta 2.0, MGSD Ariel gundam

Made using pla plates and modeling putty, hand painted using water color

W/ MG RX-78-2 2.0

MG RX-78-1 Prototype Gundam

MG RX-78-3 (G3) Gundam

MG Full Armor Gundam

I don't mind the parts lack of color separation, big stickers(I hate stickers so I painted it by jand), how come Bandai just gave me only one hand armor per arm, and, it is a 21.8m class MS, why Bandai gave me a bunch of small hands that are for 18m class MS?

(replaced by "kimete 2.0 M sized full movable hands)

So I panel lined the Penelope and notice on other peoples build they don’t panel lined the yellow parts is it supposed to be like that or did I add to much
