Gundam in all guises

[Vector Prime]

Finished this guy the other day, MSN-00100 Hyaku-Shiki - enjoy!

[VGMStudios]

its a nice bot, but I dont particularly like his face. Its too "alien" like.
Great shots as always!

VGM out...

[Stompy]

Hmm, thought you didn't like the gold VP? I guess you saw the way they mounted the gold parts are designed to avoid nubs.

Never actually had the inkling to get Hyaku Shiki in MG form. I'm just gonna wait for the transforming Unicorn version - Delta.

Hmm, thought you didn't like the gold VP? I guess you saw the way they mounted the gold parts are designed to avoid nubs.

I'm still not a fan of the gold chrome to be honest, but I had to settle for this version since the HD flat gold version is impossible to find and the yellow version is just fugly.

I did consider getting the yellow one and repainting it flat gold, but I stumbled across the chrome version for $50 so I couldn't pass it up.

I'm suffering Zaku withdraws.... I think I'm gonna build another one of those next.

[Stompy]

So. These arrived today:



- MG Age-1 Normal
- MG Heavy Arms
- HG Psyco
- HG Age-1 Spallow Type
- HG G-Exes
- HG Zedas
- HG Baqto
- HG Unicorn 02 - Banshee [Destroy Mode]

Preparing for my planned March build. Time to chip away at that backlog!

[Cat]

I need inspiration.

Half finished kit, and one that has literally been sitting here untouched for about 4 months, one I'd been dying to get.

Motivate me!!

[Stompy]

Well here ya go Cat. I recently went on a build binge in the past month. Made all these:


HG Buster:



HG Shining:



HG Beginning D:



HG Beginning J:



HG Age-1 Normal:



HG Age-1 Titus:



HG Age-1 Sparrow:



HG & AG Gafran:



HG Zedas:



HG Baqto:



HG G-Exes:



HG Psycho:



HG Banshee [Destroy Mode]:



MG Sandrock:



MG Heavy Arms:



RG Char's Zaku II:



MG Age-1 Normal:



Is that enough?

[Cat]

Haha. That's more than enough inspiration.

Love your builds. I wish mine turned out that clean!

What do you think of the Beginning Gundams?

I've been umming and ahhing about them, as I do like the designs.

Worth it?

[Stompy]

Well if you are going to get a Beginning Gundam I'd suggest the G 30th version out of the 4:





You get the original G version parts in the G30th plus all the nice extras and effect parts. The D and J versions are fine but is an after thought and contains lots of stickers. All the blue and red on each are stickers.

The only other one's I recommend from the same series are Bearguy and Zaku F2000. They are both great kits and look boss.

[Cat]

Hmm.

I'm not a fan of stickers (I'm not very good with them), so those Beginning Gundams just became a lot less desirable. (Plus I simply prefer the look of cast parts over stickers. Guess I could use the airbrush, but I think that's just a disaster waiting to happen).
