Anyone into gunpla - Japanophiles unite to share tips on painting our toys (GUNPLA IS FREEDOM)

I'm tired, been building more Gunpla, now sit around and let me show you... the Lone Gundam

Yes, I made clothes for a damn gundam, and I don't plan on doing it again soon.

The cloth was very troublesome to work with, it was a hassle but I did it with only super glue (I'm not a Taylor, I don't make clothes at all, so for this, I think i did good...I think?)

Now I know what you're thinking... (Why is it super sucky?) How did you get the cloth to hold poses? Well, I used photo wire and placed it within the fabric (yes I bendy wired the jacket, hat, and scarf)(as to why its super sucky its because I suck at dealing with cloth).

So the buster Gundam has become a lone wanderer, scouring the land for war. So, in short, build was fun, but I'm not dealing with the cloth part anymore... it was just experimentation and it was kinda painful, so I'm not doing it again.

Hope your builds are going good friends!

Did you enjoy the Buster Gundam? I really wanna pick it up as my next MG if I still cant find a Sazabi.

Yea the build was fun and straightforward (the instructions tell you what runners you need for each part which is pretty nice), so if you can find it for a decent price I'd say pick it up.
