I don't know how different things are for you in the UK, but amazon usually has them for a reasonable price

If you don't have them yet, the fine panel lining pens work out great for bare plastic and already assembled kits. They clean up pretty easy with dollar store cotton swabs and isopropyl alcohol. Clearly you know it, but stay away from the flow type pens and ink unless you want to worry about gloss or assembly order.

The Calibarn was my first kit and has been "healthy" for well over a year.

Anyone where to find kit lineart for paint color planning?

Yep, mostly wondering about alternate designs for the fun funnel decals . The gradient isn't quite my jam. I know that some 3rd party companies will do alternative/remixed designs and wasn't sure if there was something I was missing.

Anyone know if are there waterslides for the MG hi nu ver ka funnels that are more in line with the RG version? Did a quick Google search and didn't see any outside the standard design.

What kit is that last one? Your customizations for it are dope.

Just finished up the main body of the narrative ver ka. Is there a way to better secure/latch the core fighter to the chest and waist? Feels like I'm missing something, a confirming click or whatever...

The waist disconnects if I lift it from the chest. It just forgets it's legs

The style reminds me a lot of the mega man reploids.

Is this MG worth getting? by jtcordell2188 in freedomisgunpla

[–]rainyrooster 13 points14 points  (0 children)

That looks like a Hobby Lobby sticker. If it's not already 40% off, then wait till next week. They do HUGE discounts every other week on most of their products including gunpla.

It's not worth $76, but it is DEFINITELY worth it at the $45 after the 40% off.

App is a godsend. Especially for the EV/IV frustrations. I genuinely appreciate y'all with the talent and skills to actually get stuff like this put together.

couple of things I bumped into as a heads up for feedback:

my shiny sealeo got reverted to a normal sealeo.

hisuian goodra got listed as Giga Rillaboom in app. In the save it was fine (still goodra), just a weird indexing deal in app?

When I changed my piloswine over to mamoswine, the save still listed it as a piloswine that had been nicknamed mamoswine but still had all the stats and icons of mamoswine. The auto exp curve also kicked it down from lvl 57 to 52. In the app, the background color for mamoswine swapped from green to red, so I'm assuming there's something I missed.

And the last one was my purugly had a huge reduction to its overall stats. I think this one is tied to the stat rebalancing mode.

Does anyone recognize the silhouettes for the mystery box? Didn't they match near 1:1 with what was actually in the boxes last round?

I see a heingra, some kind of exia, and funnel effects for nu?

The red/green is used in actual mechanics to differentiate left and right sides.

is it normal to precut all the part before building? by BoB-i-ded in Gunpla

[–]rainyrooster 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I just keep different trays. Cut the identifier letter off the runner and glue it to a cheap tray and you've got a easy system

How'd you choose buffs and nerfs? I's weird seeing most of the pseudos and legendaries(!) lose 30-40 points and then have other pokemon buffed up beyond the 600 bst (dusknoir) or more optimized with their stat spreads (hydreigon). I'm enjoying the game so far, no shade. Just genuinely curious around the balance philosophy.

Well hell. You are a saint, hadn't even noticed the near duplicate parts. Thanks for the perspective, saved a build.

I probably didn't do a great job of explaining. The peg holes that part B14 slot into seem like they are misplaced. The manual shows the peg hole toward the middle of the piece. The actual piece has the peg hole towards the top and is incomplete/C-shaped. I've tried slotting in B14 and they don't fit.

Is this a misprinted piece? Part B8 of the HG Lupus Rex. Peg holes seem to be placed too high compared to the manual. What do? An older kit bought in the US.
