    ...That Gusion looks hella stubby. Is it some trick of perspective? 'Cause it has more normal proportions in those instructions.

    Nope.

    It's a squat little fucker. The Rebake version has much more traditional Gundam proportions.

    Got a Master Gundam kit from G Gundam on its way.


    The horse was a major factor in this purchase.

    Looks like Gundam Marker to me, although I could be wrong.

    Gives some really nice lines if you keep a steady hand or wipe well.

    Also, I have a dilemma that requires this thread's attention. Got two HGUCs unbuilt, and I need to decide which to focus on first.

    The Silver Bullet, or the Blue Destiny.

    Any thoughts?

    Oh, thanks!

    Yeah, it's just gundam markers. Most of them are regular black but some are real touch. Depends on what kind of line I need to make. I guess it's also part steady hand but mostly wiping. It's not too hard with some practice, and if you take a closer look the lines will be more uneven, but overall I'm happy with how they come out.

    I used to panel line white pieces with gray but I ended up just liking the look of black on white better anyway.

    Gusion Rebake has quite a few stickers that are passable but kind of finicky, and still areas that needed white or black paint. First kit I really felt the need to paint in missing colors.

    Really want the 1/100 of the Gusion/Rebake

    I'd just leave it as the Rebake but still

    Okay so I didn't build it today, I built it last night. And as someone who specifically picked up the V2AB because it had a lot of stuff: this thing has too much stuff.

    x0BnyIe.jpg

    The skirt accessories (micromissile pods and VSBRs) make positioning the legs kinda difficult. The shoulder I-Field generators do the same to the back cannons and long beam gun. Said back parts also come off kinda easily. There's no attach point for the beam rifle when it's holding the long rifle and shield. There's two attach points on the included standalone Core Figher that I have no idea what they do.

    Still, I don't play with my models much and it does look pretty badass.

    You should get the MG Full Armor Gundam Unicorn Ver Ka. It's probably the most ridiculously overloaded set outside of the Thunderbolt Sector.

    If my experience rings true it starts with Barbatos.

    It ends with horse gundams.

    I think you're experience may be wrong.
    It doesn't end. It never ends.
    You'll have so many tiny robot not-toys you'll have to stack them in a corner just so you can sit down.

    But the only reason you're sitting down?
    It's to build more tiny robot not-toys.

    I don't really like the Barbatos. Only really liking the basic Graze.

    You only like grunt suits, so that's expected.

    Well, I don't like it that much either, but I think I'm the only person that's started building on here recently that didn't buy one.

    And he's cheap as hell.

    That's pretty much why I got it. I think it looks kinda neat, but it was mostly a 'This is cheap and on Prime shipping, so it's the most inexpensive way to see if I like this' thing.

    I still don't have a Barbatos, but I've been working on other models. I'm detailing the MG Nu Gundam Ver Ka with the Daban Fin Funnels, and it's amazing. I'll post pics in a few days.

    What are we counting non-grunt suits during the One Year War? I like the RX-78.
