@gunpla I keep forgetting that Lemmy doesn't show the other photos

@Akaru88 And here I was complaining about the color of the beam javelin. Surely the SB-13 runner they used in the Full Weapon Set wouldn't have cost that much to add to the original.

@Akaru88 This is the Full Weapon Set version, so it comes with a few extras. Really the only reason I bought it. It looks like the beam rifle and shield are the same, but I can't tell if the normal EG comes with any beam effects. Mine came with two, so I robbed one for my EG nu custom.

@tamiya_tt02 I thought the Entry Grade nu was a surprisingly fun build. I bought the normal color and used it for a custom paint job. Good work on the build!

@wirelesswire I've been looking at the HGGQ Red Gundam just for that articulated Gundam Hammer

@TallonMetroid Yeah I honestly had assumed it was a weapon I hadn't seen yet until I read the box again. There's no way I can paint it clear, but maybe I'll do a metallic pink at some point in the future.

@gunpla @gundam
Time to see if a Lemmy cross-post from Mastodon works the way I'm hoping

Edit: it does not. I'll try another approach next post.

@gundam Just remembered that Lemmy only shows the first image so here's the "Aerial for scale"

@Akaru88 Great build! Some gold Gundam Marker would make that heat hawk pop.

@Akaru88 You painted all of that with a Gundam Marker? And here I thought airbrushing the inner frame was too much work. Fantastic job.

@Akaru88 That looks fantastic! Wonderful metallic color. I'd be tempted just to display it like that (although I just love Zaku and Zaku adjacent suits)

@Akaru88 Only one of my 1/144 kits came with a pilot figure. Much sad. The MG's come with a ton, though. Too bad I don't have a 1:100 scale scene base.
