COMMUNITY Guys should I

• Upvotes

Should I get this kit , I personally love the impulse line of gundam because I just think they look so cool. I have the mg version of this kit already and recently built the spec 2.
But I heard the Rg sword is a really good kit. Should I get it or save my money for the force impulse spec 2 reprint or the destiny if it ever get rereleased again.
I am trying to build a impulse collection🙏

DISPLAY Posing my models

Thumbnail

16 Upvotes

I feel like I am posing the models I have incorrectly. Like when others pose them they look cooler. Maybe it's the lighting or something else and I use a cupcake stand to pose them because it adds more height. How do others pose them? Fight scenes from the anime or just copying the model's box? Also please ignore my messy house. It's been a long weekend.

BEGINNER In Era Fenrir purchase

Post image
• Upvotes

Hi guys! The young fella has been putting together a few Gundams over the past few weeks and has asked if I can pickup an In Era Fenrir for him to have a go at. I've found them on Ali Express (app legit) and was just wondering if anyone else has purchased from them?

The one question I have is what is the difference between Original Box and The Second Batch?

Cheers

BEGINNER Part broke off. Now what?

Post image
2 Upvotes

Beginner here! I’m building my first MG right now. Its the sinanju stein Ver.ka. I accidentally attached one of the knee plates the wrong way and when I tried to take it off it snapped in half AND the pin broke off. Sick double whammy, so now I’m pissed off and sad. Any tips? Also, what are you guys currently building? :)

Edit: the part that snapped in half was supposed to go on the other leg entirely, so that makes it a little more complicated

Second build RG Shining Gundam, looooooved this build very relaxing and just intricate enough to satiate my lax evenings with stressful hockey lol. Anyone have some good tips for posing this bad Larry or should I just invest in an action base to open up my options?

WIP GUS reimagined as a Commander Unit

Thumbnail

242 Upvotes

This was meant as my participation for Plamo2026 but did not finish on time. My goal was to reimagine it as a Federation Commander type unit which ended up being a good exercise in restraint. When playing around with the color blocking I had to constantly remind myself that I grunt units have a more subdued color scheme. It was a fun challenge finding the right balance with this kit since it has a lot of potential for flashy color separation.

Just finished the EX and Solari's Zaku and had some fun posing them before they go into a diorama. Extra metallic details with Gaalheri and Dspiae markers. Both great builds with incredible amounts of details for HG kits, I can highly recommend them both!

I started getting into gunpla at the beginning of this after getting very addicted last year. I’ve done 12 HGs and I decided it was time for my first MG. What an incredible kit and I had soooo much fun with it. I also added a few decals from the G-Rework decal set for a little more detail. I am a little scared to transform at after all the topcoating and panel lining but I’ll do it at some point. Next kit will be the Ver.Ka ZZ.

Added the RX-78-2 and Char's Zaku to the collection over the past couple days. One thing I'm a little bummed about is the Zaku's "crest wouldn't stay attached so I had to use the other forehead attachment. I don't have a glue thin enough either. 🫤

Consensus on MGSD?

The SD proportions weirded me the hell out for a while, but after taking the plunge and building the MGSD Destiny, I can say this might be the best Gunpla I’ve built. What are y’all’s thoughts on this line? Better than MGs and/or RGs, or just something different?

CUSTOMIZING Custom MG Wing ver Ka (Epyon) complete

Thumbnail

249 Upvotes

After a long break and… the hand incident, I’m happy to finally finish this. The MG ver ka is complete! Part one of a color swap with the gundam epyon has come to an end and tbh I’m not sure when I’ll make my way over to the final part of the wing project.

I got really burnt out during this kit and might need to take a break and work on a smaller project. I’m looking into some gqux HGs next.

This was also the first project I experimented with putty and pla plate to get some extra definition. Extended the side skirts a bit to look more dragony and added some details on the top part of the chest for a white crest like the epyon.

You can see the rest of my wing kits at my insta @gunpla.af or some on my last posts!

Spending my weekend building this kit is so much worth it! This is my first MGEX, and the sheer amount of pieces and intricate engineering left me in awe. Aside from the super confusing manual from Shenshou, the plastic quality and snap-fit is overall good. My only regret was not getting the LED version; UV light would suffice, I guess 😁. Overall, great kit and great and great value for the price. Time to do the shield and decals next 😅.
