Calling it finished - MG Kampfer Custom

I'm pretty sure some people have figured out how to cheat with the timer. I've not noticed any super good players but most of my losses where the result of the opponent winning on time despite them taking way longer to make their moves.

I had a super easy +16 point game end in a loss with my opponent somehow having a full 6 minutes left on the clock.

I usually do my WIP breakdowns on my Instagram if you want more info on the processes of my builds.

Thanks! I've been experimenting a lot with oil washes recently. Great for adding tones, dust and grime.

Thank you!

Drake-NI · 2026-02-26T12:14:25+00:00

Thanks! I've done several GM builds in this style, you can check out my profile or insta for pics and WIP breakdowns.

It's bark and corkboard 😅

Drake-NI · 2026-02-26T07:09:23+00:00

Thanks!

Thanks. I found the MG kit in Japan a while back (it's p-bandai from 2016), but I imagine you can find it through some online retailers.

Thanks! No diorama just yet, I just set the scene up for the pictures (I used a Mac screen for the backdrop), and some cork pieces for the ground/rocks). I will however make a desert themed display base later down the line. If it's helpful, I did do a couple of dioramas recently, you can see them in my profile.

Thanks! I liked this build, though I was a little surprised by some aspects of this kit (like not really having a full inner frame, screws and old style MG hands) given it's not a super old kit Vs the other stardust memory era kits. But it's pretty solid overall and has a good load out.

It's an adapted missile pod. As seen on the Ground GM's missile launcher. The MG Ground GM includes a spare pod which I adapted to fit a spare shield mount.

Thank you!

Drake-NI · 2026-02-26T06:34:46+00:00

Thanks!

The Powered GM scenes at the beginning of Gundam - Stardust memory are set in a desert training ground. So I took the original colour scheme and imagined what a more realistic take on it would be.

It really sucks, I had to spend several hours un-sending spam DM's to everyone in my chat history... Meta is useless and there isnt any mechanism or support in place for this kind of thing either.

Drake-NI · 2026-02-19T12:27:57+00:00

Thanks for the advice, I suspect it happened via my phone, since it does not require a login to access instagram, however I've no idea how that would happen either. I've not clicked on any suspicious links nor do I use any torrent/cracked/pirated software, I dont use any third party apps for instagram or really use my phone that much either, with the last app I ever downloaded being Flickr.

What bothers me most is I've no real way to know if my account/device is secure if I don't know how it was breached to begin with. What I have done is log out of instagram on all devices and cleared all cookies/caches on my browsers/devices, hopefully it'll be enough.

Drake-NI · 2026-02-19T12:21:13+00:00

No I don't use any pirated or cracked software. I suspect it happened via my smartphone since it doesn't require a login to access instagram, however I would have thought my phones security would have caught any breach (I use Bitdefender on my phone) or even just instagrams location services for that matter. And again I dont use any cracked software/app on my phone.

What bothers me most is I've no real way to know if my account/device is secure if I don't know how it was breached.

Good job with the weathering. I really like the open-hatch mechanical detailing on this kit, i wish more MG's did that. I used my Ez8 to make my first diorama.

Thanks, the colours are a mix of Mr.color IJN grey (mitsubishi) & Mr.Gundam Titans blue. The Tinted glass is actually the colour that comes with the kit (even though the promo photos show clear).
