okay, then its good news!

hopefully u'll be able to find the Strike Rogue + IWSP!!! ganbatte bro!

salutes to infested for showing me the existence of such cool Mobill Soot.

omfg, cannot tahan. *faints*

He uses the rotring pen (which has a finer tip, at least I think so) to correct his louzy mistakes. Which really isn't needed. Just rub the surface with your finger wet with water would do. You'll get a finer and sharper line.

No no no, I'm not talking about the panel lines. I'm talking about when he uses that rotring pen to color some panels.



As you can see, when you use the gundam marker, you'll get uneven color distribution, but he seems to have solved it with the rotring pen.

[edit]OK I just found out by googling that rotring is a brand of marker pens. If I use permanent marker pens (any brand, or specific?) to color, would that solve the uneven color distribution?

lol I just use black acrylic to paint them, like what I did to the leg vents for both my Hazel and Advanced Hazel. Dries up faster and doesn't leave a shining finishing when done (inks tend to reflect light when written on plastic)

Completed teh 1/144 Wild Wurger recently:




For a model kit that's recently produced (late 2005), and costs nearly 3000yen in retail, Wild Wurger is made of meh and mediocrity, when compared to Bandai's 1/144 HGUC line. For those who have no idea what's a Wild Wurger, it's a unit used by Arad Balanga from the game Super Robot Wars Alpha 2/Alpha 3 for the PS2, and SRW: Original Generation 2 for the GBA. Both are superior games that you must play (SRW:OG2 ROMs are everywhere over the internet. drop me a PM if you don't know where to find one).

Read here for moar nerdy information:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wild_Falken
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wild_Wurger

Wurger specializes in close range combat, and it has a partner unit, Wild Falken that specializes in long range combat. Combined togather, they could perform the Twin Bird Strike attack, where Wurger ejects some part of its armor for quicker movement and deploy a pair of hidden wings.



First off, the arms. The shoulder joint is kinda loose, while the Stag Beetle Crusher on its right hand is enormous and too heavy for it to support, so it would look something like this:


Although the joint has a square peg of the polycap poking out, so you could make it stuck on the hidden peg inside the shoulder armor, so it won't look retarded anymore:


The elbow has a very limited movement. It can't even bend 90':




I also find it ridiculous that they would give loads of tiny parts (the 4 small yellow circular vents on both the shoulder armor, and the tiny square for the yellow part on the skirt armor) but they can't even be bothered with making some armor parts for the Stag Crusher, instead of giving a totaly white claw for it:

the concept art


the actual claw



Also a word of warning: unlike Bandai kits, there's absolutely no stickers included for Kotobukiya kits. For the eyes, they usually come prepainted if it's binocular visioned, like Wild Falken, Alt Eisen and the Huckebein series, or unpainted, if it's monocular visioned. I has to buy a green Gundam marker to do the eyes and the Stag Crusher's sensor >_>

But regardless, it's still a nice kit with ample amount of details (I LOVE how the triple barrel gatling gun looked on its left hand). A simply must-get for SRW originals fan like me.

moar pictars:





Hazel vs Wurger, who would win?

Dear people of lowyatnet,

I do think that we should start making pictars like these with their model kit/figurine collection. Users would win moar if it's something both funny and sexual in nature (like the pictures of dozens of HCM Pro Acguys molesting female animu figurines):






LOLI, GET!


Where's ur god now hurr


I have ZA POWAH LOLI!


Twin Bird Strike? :D

Fine I'll play along.


Destiny can loliGET, too.


A WINRAR is Destiny! LOLI skirtGET XD


ZOMG INCOMING! D:


O_O'''''''

!!! hamsap gundam?

My D-hellcustom! Feel free to giv some comment No humsap humsap

Nothing of that nature? Not even a funny scene or a funny pose parodying something?

You automatically fail.

Juz finished it today...funny pose? mayb not....like my gundam to look cool my way

hey i went to lowyat today. dropped by at XL-shop to get the markers. anyways, im facing a problem on the coloring side.

how do i color the black parts? or like lighter colors on darker colors? im trying to put white on black (force impulse's shield) and i cant get any effect:(

funniest picture I've seen to date
btw, are those HG or MG kits?

Fails x infinity for not realising the limitless potential of making original, funny/scenic pictures with your figurines/model kits. I pity thee for thinking that generic mediocre picture of a model kit standing on a blank background is "cool".

You're doing it wrong hurr. You're supposed to use acrylic/enamel paints, along with a primer if you want to apply lighter color on dark surfaces. Apply light colored primer on the dark surface, wait for it to dry, then apply paint.

Funniest pictar? Hurr, that particular pictar has been reposted quile frequently already. They're neither HG or MG kits. They're the much moar superior HCM-Pro figurines. 1/200 scaled.

think in the young_soul batch of gundams he brought in, im the laziest 1 and the easiest of the models...

Auto fails for buying bling bling Freedom.

It's here! Work begins tonight!


Thanks young_soul!!

like Gundams model but then dont have time, money and skill to do them...
