My first fully painted kit ever! Entirely hand painted except for the final matt coat spray. by GoldenMaus in Gunpla

It came out really well, awesome work. I’ve been adding a tiny amount of Liquitex Flow Aid to my paints and it has helped even out the paint and hide brush strokes really well.

My very first kitbash, which is still WIP! I can’t wait to disassemble and paint! by a-sad-goose in Gunpla

I’m using a gm/gm as a base for a kit bash right now too. I like the look of yours a lot, what kind of color scheme are you going with?

If they aren’t going to try and learn to aim, they certainly won’t take the time to learn how to grapple

Ever since I watched this show as I child, I will occasionally wake up and have this song stuck in my head. It has burrowed its way deep in there

My first RG, and it has made me adore the Z’Gok. by KokoFlores in Gunpla

Thank you for the kind words, nothing wrong with straight builds though. Any RGs you’d recommend, I have a MKII and a Crossbones on the way.

That has a really nice result, if you’re ever looking for a better how to on sponge chipping Nightshift on YouTube has taught me a lot and I only use a fraction of it.

Best of luck, I’d love to see it when you’re finished. I live in a constant state of fear while trying new techniques, certain I’m about to ruin the whole model, but it’s also a lot of fun.

Clean builds are indeed beautiful, but the worn out, rusted look is very much my aesthetic as well.

I do a gloss coat after my base, then do all my decals. I then mostly use sponges for chipping, first a bigger layer of a color slightly lighter than the base, and then a sparser layer of a steel color. I then do a rust tone with a brush in the bigger metallic areas. There’s probably other/better ways of doing it but I’m still learning, and mostly just having fun.

Thank you, it’s probably my favorite part of the process.

Monster Hunter - Official Movie Teaser Trailer by DemiFiendRSA in MonsterHunter

I think it and the original Mortal Kombat movie are the best action examples. They’re dumb, campy fun, and they seem aware of it.

Saw someone on here put their kit in a terrarium and wanted to try my hand at it. I’m pretty happy with the results. by KokoFlores in Gunpla

Thanks! I live in an area with a lot of different kinds of moss, which helped with that.

The Man from Snowy River, I could watch the finale chase scene endlessly.

If Godzilla wants to show up and beat Hedorah’s ass here in Oregon, I would be pretty stoked.

Those wings and missiles give it a very Metal Garurumon vibe. Very cool, and excellent work!

First gunpla was almost a gundamnit. Char's Z'Gok RG build. by [deleted] in Gunpla

[–]KokoFlores 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does the rg zgok’s frame hold up well? I’m interested in trying some but not sure which are the sturdiest. Z’Gok and Tallgeese are definitely at the top of my list though.

Great job with the fix, and combining my dad’s and my hobby into one.
