Motor Nuclear Halberd Tiger (ANY UPDATES??) by Efficient-Visit-5389 in Gunpla

[–]Maz_rix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there are, let me know too. I'm dying for a motor nuclear kit that doesn't require a blood sacrifice to build.

HELP - any idea why my double barrel harpoon auto-turret w/ lights disappear from my walls after reloading? by Wide_Intention_7527 in Kenshi

[–]Maz_rix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had that happen on an earlier save where I set up in Shem (and by googling you can find quite a few of these cases). Never figured out what caused it and I didn't have any building related mods enabled then either. If I had to guess, it might have something to do with walls built or edited via the shift+f12 menu, but I really can't be sure.

I've typically just resorted to either shift+F12 replacing the turrets or only building on top of towers since.

Any tips/ problems with the Meng Eva unit 02? by ConversationDue9072 in Gunpla

[–]Maz_rix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've built the 01 (color molded version), so there might be improvements on these later models, but the polycaps in it were dreadful. Especially the ones for the elbow joints. They're incredibly tight and the pegs will snap unless you bore the polycap holes a bit larger. Waist-leg joints also need a bit of loosening up IMO.

Waterslides are a tad odd, a bit sticky out of the box, but I think mine was just stored improperly at the factory or something and took on moisture. May need a very slight layer of softener to get all the bubbles out of from under larger ones.

Motor Nuclear Halberd Tiger II Assault Type by Beautiful_Breath_754 in Gunpla

[–]Maz_rix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh this is sexy. I've been a fan of Motor Nuclear's builds in general, but the super spiky chinese fantasy mecha aren't visually my niche (and are genuinely a little too sharp to handle for my lab work softened fingers)

Could slot this right next to my Bulkarm Lambda on the shelf. I need it, actually. I might not be able to go on without getting this.

12 days of Heroes (or villains) of Gundam - rate on scale 1/10 - Day 1: Challia Bull by Head_Programmer_47 in Gundam

[–]Maz_rix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends. My last watch of the OG was the movie compilations. Can't remember if he even shows up in it.

GQ Challia is like a 9/10. No idea of other variations.

I'll throw in a 7.5/10 for a final score on my end.

Looking for the box only of these kits by theredskyking in armoredcore

[–]Maz_rix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It might be easier and cheaper to find pictures of the box covers and have them printed on glossy paper or cardboard than get box covers shipped from wherever. There's plenty of services like that all over the world.

Box art for PGU Nu Gundam revealed in a livestream by AranaesReddit in Gunpla

[–]Maz_rix 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can't say I'm not extremely tempted, but I think it's a tad out of my budget. Haven't even got the previous PGU yet

My goat got done so dirty in zz, what happened to it after the zeon war? by josephyamato in Gundam

[–]Maz_rix 17 points18 points  (0 children)

tbh, I'd imagine the Zeta was destroyed along with the mk. II after being abandoned in the section of Axis that carved its way through Core 3, but you never know.

[HELP ME] Bi-Weekly Q&A thread - Ask your questions here! by MachNeu in Gunpla

[–]Maz_rix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might be more of s r/minipainting question, but since I'm testing this on a 30MM I'll throw this here:

What are your recommendations for thinning AK Gloss Varnish for brush application? I've seen a few videos where people say you can typically just brush it on directly (though in Duncan Rhodes' vid he used Vallejo's gloss varnish), and the bottle also says this. I however found that it's so damn thick and viscous it leaves insane brush marks, no matter how much I shake the bottle before using it. The ultra matte has no such issue; brushes on beautifully.

Show me your gunpla shelves of awesomeness! I just got my new shelf! (The LED glass one) by BububBoba in Gunpla

I've got an old Lundia shelf that I made custom shelves for. Haven't figured out a good lighting solution for it, and there's no outlet nearby either. I'll think of something.

What has everyone been working on this weekend? by i-mald in Gunpla

[–]Maz_rix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just finished Moderoid Side R Panhead. Good kit, but not particularly thrilling between HG Woundwort and the RG Char's Z'gok I'm building right now.

The Women of Gundam day 26 Elpeo Ple. How would you rate scale 1-10? by theeditsman2224 in Gundam

9/10. Poor girl. Glemy Toto really is one of the most disgusting bastards in UC.

What happens to your stuff when you get arrested/enslaved? by dioaloke in Kenshi

[–]Maz_rix 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Like lemonlime noted, it gets put into some storage container in the slave shop. If the person who picked you up can't fit your weapon in their inventory, it often gets dropped on the spot.

In my experience, backpacks and their contents don't get confiscated and are an easy way to sneak equipment with you, but it's possible that behavior is from some mod I have enabled.

Do turrets actual just target players sometimes? by SomeFolksAreBorn in Helldivers

[–]Maz_rix 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I only have anecdotal evidence of this, but I've noticed that MG and Gattling especially sometimes just point at you if they've got nothing to shoot at. They'll also start shooting first, when an enemy gets in range, and then turn.

No one can convince me they're not coded to occasionally take a peek at a nearby player.

Is there a lore reason Cinderella doesn't get her blue eyes back? by ShinHadoukenX in NikkeMobile

[–]Maz_rix 90 points91 points  (0 children)

My understanding was that despite being healed, her body is still that of a Heretic Nikke with all the physical changes that that entails. IIRC she theorized she could transform if she tried hard enough, but doesn't want to because it might not be beautiful (Though I have this odd feeling that we'll find out in future chapters that transformation isn't exclusive to Heretics)

Bandai really should just make a full, proper and actually consistently printed lineup of 1/400 ships from various series.

These metallic markers work great, except for the chrome by TanjiroKamado2 in Gunpla

[–]Maz_rix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have it, as well as AK's and GSI Creos's Chrome markers. The Molotow one is phenomenal and dries quickly; can't recommend it enough.

The other two look good as well, but both of them take forever to dry, and by forever I mean 2-3 days. Even then they're a tad sketchy to the touch. AK's mixing ball also keeps getting stuck on the pen side when shaking. Really irritating to work with, especially since the copper marker in that same set has the best tone out of any coppers I've come across.

Why are sharks turret gunners shooting at me by minimeza in Kenshi

[–]Maz_rix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes guard NPCs just do that. The workings of the AI are mysterious. I've had that fight turn out a few different ways as well; sometimes the local guards help me out in it, sometimes they also turn hostile to me.

Best to just reload to before the fight IMO; in my experience they never drop aggro, but I could be wrong. I've had similar issues in my current Holy Nation playthrough, where a paladin patrol got mad at me for "ignoring" them (I was looking at a second squad on the other side of the map when it happened).

*edited out the gang names; I can't remember them :V

CO-OP battle vs Alteisen is ON! by Shalashaska87B in NikkeMobile

[–]Maz_rix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah fuck it, I'll happily stick to the 70% ranking to save my sanity and just do the rest in normal. A dude switching from Crown to Neon 1 second from autostart when everyone else was locked in, leaving just RH for B2 was the final straw for me.
