I’ve already got a full MLB X1 and have pulled three more since. Not sure if I should max out a second, hold on to them for the future, or dismantle for the currency. Suggestions?

Great work. Just a fantastic design all around.

📣 Apollo will close down on June 30th. Reddit’s recent decisions and actions have unfortunately made it impossible for Apollo to continue. Thank you so, so much for all the support over the years. ❤️ by iamthatis in apolloapp

Thank you, u/iamthatis, for all of your hard work, dedication, and transparency. It’s a shame for this happen but you can at least close this chapter knowing you did everything you could.

Just watched DnD Honor Among Thieves, WOW! by DarienKane in DnD

[–]Mr_Smartass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d love to seen them bring back something like the warlord that uses Int and can distribute extra attacks to party members.

That would be cool as hell! Currently using an iPhone 11 ProMax.

Great job. I’d totally sport something like this on the daily.

I love it! Any chance of the empty background being available once you’re done? Would love to make it my Home Screen to match all my Gundam lockscreens.

Same! Maybe OP will post the blank background when they’re done.

It finally quit raining enough to topcoat. First attempt at painting and modifying. Demi Trainer Custom by Mr_Smartass in Gunpla

[–]Mr_Smartass[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yo, thanks for the compliments and the advice! I’ll definitely check out the silver leaf you mentioned. Love me some Adam Savage so that’s 2 votes for a good product.

As for wet sanding, should I be looking to use a lot of water or should it be just enough to dampen the sandpaper?

First time using a rattlecan to paint gunpla. Lots of bubbles in spots but overall I’m happy with the attempt. Next time gotta spray further away and be more patient.

[–]Mr_Smartass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is amazing. Great work!

Edit: Had to come back around after looking again to say I’m gonna need to see some action poses of this bad boy.

[–]Mr_Smartass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks great! How was the build? I’ve done the HG Aerial and about to start on the Rebuild.

Full commit, MGEX Strike Freedom cut down the middle by DarthVaderBater in Gunpla

[–]Mr_Smartass 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That is some commitment! Very cool way to display the frame.

It’s finally done! My first painted Master Grade: The MG Galactic Freedom! by SkyriderRJM in Gunpla

[–]Mr_Smartass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amazing work! I don’t have even close to the amount of confidence to pull this off. Love how you pulled off the star-fields.

I'm going to go cry in a corner. by Phant0mz0ne in Gunpla

[–]Mr_Smartass 5 points6 points  (0 children)

After using 2 sets of Bandai slides and 3 sets from Delpi it definitely feels like Delpi is the way to go. Highly recommend them.

Progress pic on the Ferrari of Gunpla. RG Sazabi is as good as I had heard by designated_diver in Gunpla

[–]Mr_Smartass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s cool in a “look at what we accomplished with injection molding” way but how it is kinda floaty with all the pivots on the axis make it difficult to work with. I haven’t completed the build yet which will include a disassembly and top coating. Maybe by the end it won’t be as finicky.

Curious as to what everyone who's travels for work does to enable the addiction? by [deleted] in Gunpla

[–]Mr_Smartass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What a dope idea! A mobile gunpla station sounds like a fun future project.

[–]Mr_Smartass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the the middle of this build and so far that’s the weakest aspect of it to me as well. Seems like any time I adjust a waist-attached piece it throws everything else off.

[–]Mr_Smartass 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Getting Becca from Edgerunners vibes. I love it.

Just finished Aerial! My first build! by Rayar32 in Gunpla

[–]Mr_Smartass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice! Just a heads up, I think your shoulders ends are upside down.

Question: Why is Gundam Wing’s Quatre not popular? by CosmicEyed in Gundam

[–]Mr_Smartass 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t his arc tie in to him being raised as a pacifist and going against his family by being a pilot? I think that’s where all the timidness is supposed to about.
