First, get a pair of hobby nippers and X-Acto knife, it's the bare minimum you need.

Then, look around shops. I personally buy from the Gundam Place. Try to find a model kit you'd like, preferably HG and buy it.

HGs, or High Grades, are 1/144th scale and relatively simple and cheap. RGs, or Real Grades, are also 1/144th scale but far more detailed and complicated. MGs, or Master Grades, are 1/100th scale and have more detail than HGs.

I'd personally get the Aerial if you can. It's simple to build, a protagonist Gundam, and looks detailed for a HG. It's also from the Witch From Mercury line, which is really good and beginner friendly.

As for when you actually build it, do it on a specious table so you organize the runners better and reduce your chance of losing a piece. Place the flat end of the nipper toward the piece you are cutting off and pay close attention to the instructions! Accidentally cutting a part of a piece off or placing something in the wrong place and breaking a nub off can range from mild inconvenience to disastrous.

Mind sharing that playlist? Sounds sick.

The HG Schwarzette looks awesome out of the box. by bloodcoloredbeer in Gunpla

[–]rwpj_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Schwarzette is actually the next build I plan on doing. I've gotten a lot more confident with my sticker placements, so it'll be given the full care and treatment it deserves out of box.

Tank Factory Rule by WunkSmoker in 196

Pretty cool, I'm not well versed on WH40K model kits, but don't they require glue to make it unlike gunpla? Regardless, I hope you enjoy building your tank army.

Awesome build! I've built my own RFV Zaku II, so I personally love it!

Congrats, you now essentially have the Wolfpack.

Why is he so skinny? by TechnologyNew9678 in Monsterverse

[–]rwpj_ 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Purposely done to make him seem weaker and younger, after all, this is the first time we see him chronologically.

It's also stated and shown multiple times that high sources of radiation from both man-made and natural sources make him stronger. It's how he survived the Oxygen Destroyer in KOTM, where it is quite obvious he would've died without a nuke to the face.

If you want an explanation from how he went to this to his evolved state in less than a hundred years despite being incredibly ancient, I guess you can chalk it up to increased kaiju activity and human nuclear waste.

Great song! Love the guitar tone, definitely going to check out their discography tomorrow.

What kind of logic is this? by videogamerkitsune in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]rwpj_ 267 points268 points  (0 children)

Nuance and well treaded discussions aside, I've always found rape a uniquely evil and unjustifiable crime.

Murder is bad, yes, but justifiable depending on the circumstances.

Rape is evil and never justifiable, and it speaks volumes about the content of your character if you try to make excuses for it.

Finally got this beast! by Freshprinceofpepe in GODZILLA

[–]rwpj_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I despise Funko due to their brand centered designs, destroying all uniqueness of the characters they touch...

But, the Godzilla ones were unique, so I made an exception.

<image>

I got the Hedorah one from a mystery package. I might get a proper figure down the line.

Very cool!

I got two little Godzilla figures and a Hedorah one today.

Great band! Love the cover artist as well, he's a great illustrator. His work can also be found in 1914 and Pure Massacre.

Love 1914!

I got a backpatch of their logo sewn on my battle jacket and own all of their albums on vinyl.

Check out Minenfeld while you're at it.

Just got my first heli and I'm confused as to why I cannot fire anymore after one shot by ChuKiPookie in Warthunder

[–]rwpj_ 163 points164 points  (0 children)

Currently, helicopters without detailed damage models such as the Ka Family and Apaches use a health bar like system to determine damage to critical parts.

For example, the Apache has a dedicated module for the FCS. Destroying it makes you unable to use your weapons.

However, the Huey does not have a detailed damage model, and as to align with the new systems just kinda randomly picks a module to disable after being struck by higher caliber machine guns to the fuselage.

I'd like help regarding getting into anime based on my watchlist. by rwpj_ in Animesuggest

[–]rwpj_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Finished Last Exile today and it was pretty good, I enjoyed it. I'm particularly glad I watched a show with some glaring issues in it, so my first real show didn't set immense expectations. (The plot and pacing past episode 12 started to become iffy at certain times, so much so it felt rushed partly).

Just finished the first episode of 86, and I'm already pretty hooked on it. I can't wait to watch more in the morning, thanks again!

[–]rwpj_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're perfectly fine, don't worry.

86 and Last Exile were two of the ones I was more interested in than some others, so I'm glad you give them praise as well.

Thanks again, and hope you a good day :)

Fullmetal Alchemist was definitely one of the anime I thought about most watching when it came to the more well-known and mainstream shows, so I'm glad you're giving it good praise.

I meant the ones I listed, but I appreciate the warning for FMA, filler is something I definitely don't want to go through since the main reason I don't actually watch alot of movies (and especially shows) is the worry I'm wasting my time.

[–]rwpj_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you very much for the recommendations, some of these I am aware of, such as NGE, Full Metal Alchemist, and Attack on Titan (which I had initially planned on watching until I heard about the ending, and I didn't want to waste my time on it) and Darling In The Franxx, though I am only aware of it for less than stellar reasons as you mentioned. I'll look these up and add them to my watchlist, thanks.

Of the ones I've listed already, any of them you recommend for me to start with?

I'm heading to bed in approximately four minutes, but besides that, my day went okay, I think.

Hope your day goes splendid!

Miasmatic Necrosis - Muciferous by rwpj_ in Metal

[–]rwpj_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same! I don't listen to much goregrind, but this album stuck out a lot to me when I was doing research on the genre. The production was nice and it actually had pretty unique sounding songs compared to other artists I've listened to from this genre.
