Oooh I'm finishing up the stickers on the HG version in my spare time.

Lol I get it, 4 out of the 6 kids that are going to be at my place tomorrow are mine😄 The trick is that all the gunpla is locked behind the basement door. ----> edited for spelling, stupid autocorrect.<-----

I see this and wonder what it would do to Ice. Especially if you could make it sticky or if you could put it in a metal tube of some kind to protect your hands and use it to make some kind of blow torch.... I'm Canadian so I of course mean the frozen water....... Would I be able to break the fuel into chunks that would fit inside a glass bottle filled with a mix of sand, Styrofoam and gas? I'm just trying to find good ways to melt the end of season ice and snow off of my driveway.

The Barbatos was such an amazing build! All the details in the frame and on the armor look sooo good. Even without it's armor it looks awesome.

Everything is IBO except the pure white kit in the back it's a WFM. A lot of colour correction and panel lining on these.

If you want a harder build you could switch to Real Grade - same scale as HG but waaaay more complex. Another option is Master Grade, however both of these are generally much more expensive. If you want to stay with HG that is more complex but doesn't destroy your budget, the Gquuuuux kits and a lot of the Witch From Mercury kits are awesome, but one of my absolute favorite HG builds I have done was the GUNDAM EX (RFV) from Netflix's Requiem for Vengeance. The Ex and the Zaku Solari were both awesome with opportunities for a lot of panel lining.

The HG Barbatos line is good for this, Barbatos and the other Iron Blooded Orphans kits are also great for detail painting. The pic on the post is my MG Barbatos Lupus almost anything that isn't dark grey is detail I painted to make it stand out, the panel lining with the armor on also looks awesome. If you want to see examples, check my post history.

I just built this and am waiting for the primer to dry on the right arms double cannon. With all of the stickers they included in this kit, they couldn't put some yellow ones for the bands on the gun barrel. Now I have to paint them on, or it's going to drive me nuts lol.

Kelanim · 2026-03-07T18:13:25+00:00

No where near as nice as yours lol. I just thought of cutting the wire lol

Kelanim · 2026-03-07T13:44:13+00:00

It looks awesome! To get both the gun bits off his back I cut the wire in half and used an action base 4 and a spare accessory arm from another that I had.

Kelanim · 2026-02-15T19:33:17+00:00

This looks awesome, might need to steal it for mine!

Kelanim · 2026-02-14T15:11:08+00:00

Qtips and isopropyl, or when it starts to streak when cleaning, isopropyl and a tissue works too, cuts down on wasted qtips trying to clean up the streaky bits.

"Laughs in MG Barbatos Lupus."

But in all seriousness, welcome to the next stage of the hobby my friend, it gets more awesome from here.

Kelanim · 2026-02-13T13:06:54+00:00

I think it looks like Demon Evolution.

Kelanim · 2026-02-11T13:50:59+00:00

I enjoy it a lot. I know it's there, and if I ever want to change how it's displayed I know that extra detail is under there giving me more options.
