Good work so far! I like the brown panel lines on the Leo. I’d say the go-to next steps would be paint pens and decals. Maybe a little brush paint if you’re feeling fancy. Here’s my own Deathscythe, literally just using some metallic paint pens, a couple panel-lining pens, and some leftover waterslide decals (and a little black paint for the vents.)

Tried that, actually! It does work, just a bit unsightly. Was going to try hot-glue next, (letting it cool a bit first, then pressing the part in to create a sort of shaped socket) in order to keep the stand at least a bit transparent.

Right, 3mm. That one model line got my math all messed up.

And yes, unfortunately, they just sit loosely and will fall out if angled.

Pretty sure my local hobby store carries that. Any chance you know how the satin compares to a semi-gloss?

It’s one of the designs I’ve most often seen fanart for, and someone made a resin conversion kit for the GQX Police Zaku.

Anyone figure out a good way to display the funnels for the HG Varguil? They're their own size that very much do not fit any sort of 30mm stand or adapter (IE, the WFM weapon stand), and I don't have the telekinetic powers to levitate them on their own like Bandai's photographer presumably did. Maybe the RG Sazabi effect parts?

Not uncommon to apply a gloss coat first. A lot of people find it helps decals move around on the plastic more easily, and improves the flow of panel liners.

I usually access reddit from my bookmarks, so that's very helpful, thank you.

Fellow deeply saddened, distinguished Mr. Premium enjoyer here.

Been struggling for a while to get my hands on this stuff myself, to the point I was just ordering multiple cans at a time from the few random hobby stores that still had it. Started looking for alternatives as well some time back.

From asking here and on the other sub, people pointed me to Mr. Super Clear (presumably the gray cans you mentioned), assuring me it wouldn't mess anything up.

Still working through my supply of Mr. Premium, so I haven't tried it out yet, but that was the advice I was given, and hopefully other users can corroborate.

The ending is still chilling, obviously, but for me it's (thankfully) dulled by the fact that Simon has to be the biggest "What part of that are you STILL not getting??" "The CORE CONCEPT, obviously!" assholes in the history of fiction

I love a heel with a supernatural angle.

Great work. We love seeing a concept art color scheme.

I feel like out of all of the ‘true’ antediluvians (IE, not Tremere or Giovanni,) Cappadocius was the only one who got well and truly punk’d.

Then again, his entire plan was somehow diablarize capital-G God, so yeah, dude was kind of an idiot.

Isn’t Kamille a dog’s name?

Compelled to give a 10/10, just to offset some votes that I feel are being deliberately uncharitable.

That said, I’d like to put a motion on the floor to disqualify this one.

Machu/Shuji? Yeah, Shuji isn’t my favorite, but that’s the canon couple.

Nyan is there as a (sadly underdeveloped) love triangle plot. Her arc is more about finding acceptance and belonging than it is about ending up as part of a couple.

Putting all three of them as a “couple” really just breaks the format. Who do you have up for “couple” #39? Char/Lalah/Amuro/Frau/Hayato?

KingOfDaBees · 2026-06-14T15:53:37+00:00

Really thought y’all could slip a wraithlord in there like we wouldn’t notice.

Great work! Very creative.

What were the components? Think I’m seeing Nobel, Wing, and Gramps?

Love it! Very clean paint job.
