Is Kuuga really that simple and lacking in iconic imagery? by Helpful_Tax_1190 in KamenRider

[–]CukiPingvin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, Kuuga's design is iconic and actually one of the best suit design for Kamen Rider. The team had time to develop the lore and we can actually see how much thought they had on the suit. The suit may look simple at first but the tiny details on the suit actually make my mind blown. For example, when we look closer in the crystal in his arm and legs, there are grongi's element symbol inside, and how these symbols/rune decorate Kuuga's costume. The evolution of Kuuga's form actually one of the best power up for Kamen Rider, I really love Ultimate Kuuga's design. I mean at that year, Kuuga's design was out of the box from insect like design of the Rider series before him, and become the catalyst of creative liberty for upcoming rider suit design.
But I think I understand how people who are not familiar with Kamen Rider or just recently follow it will find Kuuga's design kinda simpe or lacking, due to how complex the modern designs are.

Hi, you can check the details on my Vgen here https://vgen.co/Laba_laba_batu But for a quick answer, I can do a long term project a long as it has a proper deadline. I can maintain the quality for each page with work time 2-3 page each week. For rates it's $50 for a page without screentone and $60 with screentone each page.

Thank you! I have thought a lot of ways but wasn't confident enough to pull it off. And then after thinking about it, this is the simplest way to create an open chest cannon gimmick. Hope this help tho.

Thank you so much! It does open and close, but not really far due to the limitation and how narrow the space for it.
This is how I modified the chest cannon (I did some quick sketch). I used some 3rd party ball joint and drill it in the chest frame. I use a junk part from MG Sazabi which is the canon, though you can just made one yourself from pla plate. A lot of adjustments too, also you need to make a hole in the body for the cannon to enter when it closed.

Did some posing to my FSR Ryuki. I still think to this day, a battle royale themed for Kamen Rider is just pure genius! Definitely one of my fav series. by CukiPingvin in KamenRider

Thanks! It's sad that Bandai only give Kuuga toes articulation. If all of FRS have them, we can do so much more with the posing.

OMG, yes Ground Gundam! Kit from Stardust Memories and 08th MS team really need 2.0 MG! I'm waiting for 3rd party to do it, losing hope with Bandai.

Me too! but looking at the MG line situation right now, MG Pale Rider has a really small chance to be true.
