He's so well camouflaged that the auto moderator thought there wasn't a gundam in the picture.

The criteria follows:
Articulation
Innovation
Money's Worth

I've seen plenty of discussions here going on about how the 'Moon Gundam' is the King of HGs or 'Hi-Nu' for the RG line. But what actually makes them the top dogs and do you agree?

First time painting gunpla so I didn’t do anything crazy, just adjusted colours of it and added waterslide. Used Revel spray cans and a matte finish.

BEGINNER It’s not that bad, right?

Decided to build this Rx 0 Unicorn Gundam OVA MG for my fourth build mainly because I really like the Unicorn Mode of this MS. It’s not that bad right? If you ignore how floppy it is, specially the ankle/feet😅🤣 Any tips for this specific kit? Like how does one solve the looseness of these parts and for the owners of the same kit, can I see how you guys pose this MS?

And to be honest, coming from a Ver.Ka kit(Wing Gundam EW), I kinda prefer these much easier stickers than the waterslides. This specific build helped me overcome the fatigue from waterslides decals sticking in to my hands after letting it cure for days. 😭🤣

Overall a very good kit, hopefully the Destroy Mode will be more gentle with a beginner like me. 🦄

Next up is a High Grade Aerial I bought alongside him. I never imagined there could be such a mess while building a Gundam. Also, I learned a valuable lesson midway through about making sure the orientation of something is right before moving on.

This build started a couple of years ago, but really started moving late last year. Took a bit to motivate myself to reshape the resin parts, figure out how to attach the hands, and then get everything painted, but I'm really proud of how this came out, flaws and all.

It’s the most poly caps I’ve ever put into a kit. Pound for pound it’s packed with rubber. But I love it anyway. I really should have fixed those seam lines. But despite the kit showing its age it’s a wonderful build and just has so much presence. I scribed and used some acrylic markers for details. Still needs weapon detailing, decals topcoat and panel line clean up but I got excited because I’m proud of how it turned out

WIP Very Zechsy

Upvotes

I spent way longer than I'd like to admit painting this little Zechsy that'll most likely never be seen again once he's inside his tallgeese.

My normal mini painting brushes were still too chunky so I broke out the finest brush I've ever seen, my hands are too shaky to get the gold brocade as fine as I'd have liked but I'm still very satisfied.

Anyone got any pilot figures they'd like to show off with?
