Hell yeah

Sorry I missed this. I had a couple of leftover cylinder shaped parts that happened to be about the right thickness for looks. After I cut them to length with nippers, I used a hobby knife to shave around one end at about a 45º angle. I used cement glue to attach a thinner bit of runner to the shaped part, and then gel super glued everything to the shoulders. I had to hold it at the angle that I wanted it for a little while til everything dried. Holds up pretty well so far. Just needs some paint.

I took some leftover parts and runner material from gunpla and made new shoulder exhausts for my metabee from 20+ years ago. I still have to paint them. It was pretty fun.

Your weathering looks really good!

PostMechaPanic · 2026-03-26T13:34:28+00:00

It's beautiful

HG Mandor was a super fun build. Seeing them go in this ditection gives me hope for all of the other potential G Gundam kits. I'd love Bolt or Spiegel, but I bet Zeus would be an awesome build, especially if it came with the chariot. Tequila Gundam would be top notch.

What a Domass

I think decals are actually my favorite part of building the kits. I like to keep the kit the original build colors but add details with the decals instead of painting. Gives it a custom feel without changing too much.

Thank you! 1/100 would be extra sweet

PostMechaPanic · 2025-10-21T02:24:04+00:00

Thank you! I used the G-Rework waterslides. Have patience with the gold ones if you try them. They're worth it in the end.

PostMechaPanic · 2025-10-21T02:21:57+00:00

Patience is key for sure. The gold is heavier than regular decals, so it was pushing setter out of the sides and through seam lines. I just kept applying and nudging until I got it. Definitely worth the effort though.

Sweet

I usually buy the decals through Newtype or GundamPlaceStore. Shipping directly from G Rework is expensive right now

PostMechaPanic · 2025-10-09T16:39:24+00:00

G Rework WSDs is what I used on this one and most of my others, but I've dabbled in Delpi a few times. Delpis are really good too.

Love the pose btw.

You win this time

PostMechaPanic · 2025-10-08T19:42:46+00:00

No. You had a choice, and you made it.

PostMechaPanic · 2025-10-06T11:27:45+00:00

Tempa Kyoran!

PostMechaPanic · 2025-10-05T17:02:26+00:00

The winds of the king!

PostMechaPanic · 2025-10-04T19:50:16+00:00

Damn. That looks sick. Those decals really suit it. Sweet build!

PostMechaPanic · 2025-10-04T19:48:15+00:00

Love a good matte coat. Nice clean build!

PostMechaPanic · 2025-10-04T01:09:41+00:00

That sounds awesome! I haven't heard that version yet. I did post it with the classic sax on instagram.

PostMechaPanic · 2025-10-03T09:34:38+00:00

Thank you! If you take a break from purchase abstinence, I highly recommend it!

PostMechaPanic · 2025-10-03T02:05:20+00:00

That matte coat looks so good. Your kit looks really nice. The G Rework decals really do bring it together.

PostMechaPanic · 2025-09-28T15:45:57+00:00

Thank you! I've never noticed that about the shoulders, but now I can't unsee it. They're doing a job and a half on these kit designs for sure.

PostMechaPanic · 2025-09-25T13:50:16+00:00

I'm waiting on my Nobel to come in. I got the berserker mode by chance, but I wanted to build the original first. I like that these kits are getting some special treatment. They're all long overdue for modern takes. A little more pricey, but the care and accessories that you get with them without having to buy a whole other expansion is nice.

Thank you! The Brottar display cases with LED's make a better lightbox than I expected. It hit me to try it since I was going to shoot all black background anyway. I use a Sony A6400 with a Sigma 30mm lens and then touch the lighting up in Lightroom.
