Gundam Models

YES DO IT

Dark Grey is a much better colour than black anyway; black is really plain and one-dimensional.
So I was wondering... Bandai wanted a way to reduce all the wasted plastic in the runners... So why dont they just not use runners and package all the parts in plastic bags like they already were but just cut the runners. That would also mean you wouldnt have to file down the pieces to get the nib marks off...
I think it is more cost productive to leave them as it is; the parts are made from runners anyway, so the additional work of removing them would result in increased expenses.
D:

I pay enough for gundams as it is ):
Looks like a HG or NG, Pretty sure it's a HG though.

Since the original pricing is $15.00
Just set up a recycling program for the runners.
Anyone wanna buy my 1/100 MG Unicorn Gundam?

Includes weapons, model, as well the decal sheets if I can find them. Has been clipped from runner frames, sanded, polished some (even some parts are super shiny when put in the right light), panel lined, and put together quite carefully and meticulously. Build time is probably around two weeks. I was really carp about frame nubs etc so thats why it took so long.

Missing the V-shaped crest, though. Shoot me up a PM or IM if you are interested.

edit: it's my favorite model, but i'm selling it as i have to pay for a few things.
So I finally realized that paying 50 bucks for a 2000 Yen model was just stupid. Did some digging and it's cheaper by far to buy them online, shipping included. Although i'd probably use the store for paneling markers and paint, so it's still an advantage to have it around.

Some pretty awesome shizz in the upcoming releases.

HGUC Kshatriya is insanely awesome. I will hopefully get PG 00 Raiser when I save up enough cash, especially since it comes with GN Sword III so Bandai can't screw me over with any future releases.

And finally, the MG proportions and details on that Astray Blue Frame Second L are just ♥

Have such a massive backlog of Gunpla needing to be bought now. :]
I finished paneling my 1/144 green frame, looks okay to me, but i still have some touching up to do on overflows, etc.

Bought the 1/100 sword strike gundam yesterday. along with an actual gundam paneling pen. imo it looks decent. Right now it's just the normal Strike gundam, I have yet to build the other armaments.

Also, how long on average do paneling markers last? Want to know if i'll still have enough to panel my red frame after building the rest of sword strike.
So im in toronto right now,

They look good. I still recommend using a lighter shade when panel lining white though; more subtle. :]

It should last you both models.
My general rule for whites is that black marker makes it have more of an "anime" look while a grey/light grey is to make it have a "realistic" look.
a video i found of a guy making a master grade GN-01 Exia

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmvziUuif...feature=iv

it even has LED lights in the GN drive, and openable cockpit

pwn

bought myself a trans am exia high grade, and a first grade dynames if anyone wants me to make a video of me making them when they arrive?
Words cannot describe how much I love the Master Grade Wing Zero.
It took me about 12 hours of work.

Dry transfer stickers and panel lining the interior of the wings were fun (L)
Panel lining the outside of the wings were a pain in the carp.

edit: Forgot to say it's a gift from gf beynjiji :3 hehehe (L)
Carp Valentin you've become awesome at this.

ALL THAT PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT
