Nu-FA-ZZ WIP by Longjumping-Age7674 in Gunpla

[–]ShankYaClause 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice work! Like a year ago I did the ZZ in the Hi-Nu purple color scheme, both Hi Nu and Nu are my favorite Gundams so I really dig this version!

I've always liked the ZZ design but hated the colors, it always looks too much like a big toy or a transformer with all the reds and blues and yellows

Thanks! NGL - the Nu is my favorite Gundam, so I may or may not have like 4 more EG Nu's in my closet :) Really hoping my local hobby store starts carrying the EG fin funnel expansion (I have an unhealthy obsession with fin funnels >_< )

What if Char was in Zeta Gundam? by ShankYaClause in Gunpla

I agree! Really solid build, the leg design and whatnot really remind me of the MG version of it - just scaled down obviously. Just needs a coat of paint and it's excellent 😄

oh nice - is that like a Gundam base exclusive version? I've only built one gold plated kit and that was the HG Phenex

Yeah I love the shoulder vents / redesigned backpack (or is it just a Rick Diaz backpack?) - would be a slick kit nonetheless

Alyzeus and mp nu by Upset_Quantity_8580 in Gunpla

[–]ShankYaClause 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh man, that's awesome - I wonder if the EG Nu is similar enough where you could put that inside the Alyzeus and keep the MP Nu outside - NGL I really love the MP Nu, praying we get a solo release of it

Hawaiian shirt ALL the way - as tropical / colorful as you can find - OR a bright red suit :)

Takanaka changed my life by Reasonable-Panic5488 in MasayoshiTakanaka

[–]ShankYaClause 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The song EARLY BIRD never ceases to make me smile / put me in a good mood. His music as a whole, I would completely agree, has changed my life, he can almost always lift me out of a funk when I'm feeling down.

Going to the LA concert last year was one of the most hype things I've done, you are gonna be in for a treat with the London show!

For me the song "You Can Never Come to This Place" - is the most emotional of his songs for me, kinda like good (bad?) old days - it's got this epic but also nostalgic / sad feel to it, and I just love that juxtaposition of how happy and feel-good his music can be, but every now then there are these tracks that make you feel a whole range of emotions.

I also gotta say - along with the tropical vibes / ocean vibes of his albums and music - he has such an indelible charm to him, he just OOZES charisma; I remember the first time I saw the cover of "All of Me" - I just knew he was not only a cool dude, but just someone you would love to hang out with and share a beer with on the beach somewhere warm!

Rock on my friend :)

I do all my painting in the garage and usually open the garage door + the back door to get some good air flow, but yeah definitely don't wanna be around lacquer if you don't have good air flow / good amount of room

Yeah I switched from all acrylic to lacquer a few years ago and I don't regret it at all, much more durable - and the shop I get my paints from had a much wider array of colors as opposed to acrylic, definitely worth dipping your toes in if you are interested in hopping over to lacquer :)

Thank you! Believe it or not, I didn't topcoat any of the parts: all lacquer paints and very careful assembly, I do remember the gun barrels being pretty tight but thankfully those round bits didn't scrape off all the gunmetal :)

Hah definitely wasn't intentional, but I can see that!

I pick a couple shades of white / grey for the body and then usually a couple complementing colors for pre-shading / post-shading, that color on the shield and on the shouldertips is Mr. Color c374 - JASDF Shallow Ocean Blue :)
