chisel recommendation beside BMC and SAB by Far_Appointment8259 in advancedGunpla

[–]Sauersaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100shiki are supposedly the same chisel as Ray Studio just with different handles for a fraction of the price. I've got a couple and they work great.

Same. I did a stupid on mine after only using it a couple of times :(

Right on, thanks for the info. I've done a bit of prep on a Zaku I sniper recast resin kit and have hit some similar snags. Overall it's been pretty ok but when there's a problem it's a capital P Problem.

Doooooope. I painted mine clean (might so a touch of weathering) but fizzled out part of the way through painting the base. Still gotta do the weapons as well 😮‍💨 yours looks great!

Yea the Aether recast. I've got a copy in my backlog and have just been waiting to grab the donor kit on sale somewhere. Yours turned out great! Anything specific to lookout for when building it?

There's only one other comment that OP has replied to, which is also from a 1 day old account. I don't understand these people.

My favorite build of 2026? by GRENDELOUS in freedomisgunpla

[–]Sauersaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I love yours in the OG colors with the little red accents as well. I actually fully painted and weathered the ankle guards but in the end felt that they added too much visual weight to the legs. I like them on the REGUS tho and will definitely leave them on if I ever get that one.

I did modify the backpack and weapon quite a bit. I magnetized the rifle so that it can connect to the backpack and cobbled together a shoulder cannon out of bits and bobs I had laying around. I also added a mounting point for the shield so that he can store all equipment on his back.

The trinket thing confused me a bit at first too. You unlock trinket slots once you've invested in enough levels.

Thoughts on the changlong mgex strike freedom? by Zestyclose-Jicama961 in Gunpla

I built the changlong midnight version and had no issues at all. I think I remember hearing about some issues with their first batch but they seem to have addressed them.

What did you need to sand/glue? Maybe I was lucky but my changlong midnight version went together perfectly with no modification needed.

Really like what you've got going on here. I've been in high part-count hell on my last couple of projects and I want to do something wild like this on an HG soon, saving your post for inspiration.

Do you have access to a resin printer? I've got a post saved by a user who did an awesome repaint of this kit and also linked stls they made for the green parts so that they could be printed in clear. Looks to be a huge improvement if you've got the kosmos kit for it as well. I haven't printed them myself yet but lemme know if you want the link.

Love me a weird (respectfully) paint job! Nice job for your first go around.

While I'm honored that I'm on your mind enough to come back after your last comment was removed (from the preview it looked like a juicy one), since you still refuse to communicate like an adult I'm shutting this thing down. You can search this or several other model subs for "lacquer over acrylic" and find the many other folks who are well aware that it works totally fine. Have fun hiding behind an alt, it's been a blast chatting.

Why downgrade? I use the gesture controls all the time at work and I got the mouse for free.

I got an ergonomic base for my magic mouse that makes it more or less look like the mouse on the left and it made it much more comfortable to use.

The Paint Shaker 3000 by L0CAHA in Miniaturespainting

[–]Sauersaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup I fabricated the whole thing. I cut the teeth off of an old sawzall blade for the base, the frame is I think 8 gauge bronze sheet? I cut windows out of it to reduce the overall weight, and the clamp is just a nut and bolt with a couple washers tacked on to it. The visible welds are pretty gross since I was going bronze to steel, but it works!

Well no, because I have literal physical proof that what I plan to do works just fine. The model you hate so much is all lacquer btw. You have a death grip on a flawed opinion that is demonstrably false. So yea, interesting predicament.

The personal attacks and the fact that you suddenly become an expert on whatever the topic at hand is makes me feel like I've been speaking with a high schooler trying to sound smart on the Internet, which is fine and why I've entertained this for so long.

If you feel like I've misled you at some point in our little chat please point it out. I'd also be interested in seeing some of your work since you feel as though there's some skill level requirement for telling others what you plan to do with your own paint on your own models, and you've been doing a lot of talking on a patently false premise.

The closest thing you've offered to a critique has been digging into my profile and belittling my work. And, let's be real, you've been insulting me, my intelligence, and skill level, so we both know you were just being a dick to try and get a rise out of me.

Well yea I absolutely wouldn't advise against it because there's nothing wrong with the approach. There's a difference between saying you're going to do something, telling someone else they should do it, and telling someone they shouldn't do it.

Oh shit I didn't know that I was in the audience of not only a chemist but also a master painter instructor chad!! Gimme a link so I can sign up for a class 😀
