To build it, and the patience needed to complete it.. is the challenges..

Details on RG are very good. I'm currently snap-fitting my RG Freedom very very slowly. Just finished the head and feet after almost 1 month of purchase. lol Very busy lah.

Seriously, it's an interesting build. The parts that make up the feet alone are a handful lot already. Another challenge is because of the small scale. Fatigue gets to my eyesight much quicker than building an MG.

Makes older MG look like NG??? I never thought of that until you guys mentioned it.

since you all are going for zeta topic here i like to share some of my old work zeta series to add poison to the RG line.

Added on October 16, 2012, 4:19 pmhehe.. the hardest part for me to achieve.. I lost interest very quickly.. .. so if I build gunpla.. I need to finish it within 24 hours.. if straight build.. but for painting and stuff like that.. usually take months.. so.. I will eventually lost interest in building that model.. end up in cold storage..

By the way,

Review Part 2: 1/100 RX-78-2 ver. GP30th 945SHG - Inner Frame(torso)

Front shot: http://i.imgur.com/qf2I7l.jpg
Back shot: http://i.imgur.com/BybKPl.jpg

http://i.imgur.com/GBcSIl.jpg - You'll get about a 135 degree bend out of the elbows.

http://i.imgur.com/4H5b9l.jpg - Can't quite get the arm all the way to the opposite shoulder though...

http://i.imgur.com/qD27Il.jpg - mainly due to the limited articulation at the shoulders. You'll also notice that there's no way to bring the shoulder up like on the OYW or 2.0 kits. Overall the articulation is slightly better than Gundam ver. ka but is little match for the OYW or 2.0.

http://i.imgur.com/tgchcl.jpg - you'll also notice that his abdomen is one solid piece of plastic. You'll obviously get waist rotation, but the kit lacks the ability to do much more than that.

http://i.imgur.com/ENTTBl.jpg - The kit does however feature a full inner frame for the head so you don't have to try and panel line the details for the facemask and or helmet's vents.

Overall, the frame is a weird mix of Gundam ver ka, OYW, and the 2.0 in terms of detail and articulation. It's nothing to scoff at, as the amount of metal makes it by far the most sturdy RX-78-2 inner frame, but if you were hoping for a Gundam "3.0" you'll be a bit disappointed.

Inner Frame Score: 8/10

nice review never knew metal inner existed before. must be heavy

just back from garden art shop, dun have 0.4 metalic silver pen

so i just buy sharpie silver rm4...

No love for MG Buster Gundam?

Haven't get mine. T.T

Haven't finish building it but already thinking to get the second one because want to give my FAU some more guns.



@chriswoo love your mod on Rezel and Zeta.

i also havent get my MG Buster lo. my Blitz oso no time to finish it

Very nice bro.... Wish i have your skills...

Hi guys, may I ask, I notice one of my gundam start getting yellow-ish on the white armor area... I did spray a good amount of top coat on it (Semi Gloss) but I have no idea why this still happen... can recommend any solution?

no solutions. Its an inherent problem with the white pigment in white paint. Over time everything in white would turn yellowish when expose to sunlight even cars with their strong industrial paint.

later my gundam became old newspaper color...

Atleast it got weathered naturally.

Hmm there is one method; UV-cut top coat. Though take note this should be applied only on the white surface; it does produce a thin semi-transparent white layer that wasn't visible much on white surface, but will be very visible on non-white surface

hm.... will be problem if we have shading effect?
