I can't get a Crossbone Booster, but I did see a few Meteor Hoppers

So I've decided to paint the gundam flat black and add a haze effect to make it look aged. It's gonna be tough to get the decals I want for it, the people that own a special printer charge a bloody fortune for one page of decals (2 dollars per page)

0079 (The Original Gundam), Zeta, Double Zeta, Char's Counter Attack. I'm all about the Universal Century timeline... Which is probably why I also really enjoyed SEED and Seed-Destiny.Â Big Grin

Can't say I'm big on the model scene though, but it's cool to see what people come up with.

Some of the best customs come from the oldest mobile suit models, GM's are among the easiest to mod and I love seeing rugged variations of them.

That being said, I REALLY want to get my hands on an Adele from gundam AGE, I never liked AGE but that Adele's head is just to die for imo

Melphina, try this one instead:
http://www.gundamplanet.com/hgbc-skull-weapon.html

this is compatible with Meteor Hoppers and you can shape it into X shape, and make it look like it's an actual speed booster attached to your Gunpla.

This is also cool booster to attach too, like you could scratch with Fenice Rinascita wings and change colors.

ooooooh I like that crossbone booster :3

As someone who's in the business of printing stickers and such, you are getting a really good deal! $2.00 a page? I'm surprised you think that's high, I wouldn't touch that job for less then $10.00 a page.

Be thankful Thumbsup

Most of the Gundam decals go from $8-$20 depending on the figure and rarity . So $2 is a good deal.

Been watching Ironblood Orphans since it started and I'm really digging it.

It's the first gundam I've really enjoyed since Gundam Wing.

Melphina · **10-25-2015, 11:38 AM**

Well I've never actually been around a printing group before, for a normal print at my university it costs .25 for a colored print, so I thought since it was 8 times higher than a colored, it felt expensive.

Also bad news, my gundam is ruined after I painted it. The clerk at the hobby store told me the paints I was using was acrylics, and I looked it up after a few parts broke and found out that the Tamiya PS spray cans are lacquer. I put plastic-eating paint onto my model kit...I'm going to go down there today and tell them what happened, and if they offer, I'm going to try and get a free can of acrylic paint.

Melphina · **10-25-2015, 11:39 AM**

I mean the acrylliics they sell are dirt cheap, more than the Tamiya can I bought.

EkheiBalduin · **10-25-2015, 12:04 PM**

Ouch. Yeah. You definitely have to watch out for the type of paint you're purchasing. Can't always trust the clerks. What are you going to do about the broken parts? Just get new ones or repair them if you can?

Melphina · **10-25-2015, 12:49 PM**

well I have replacements in the form of Rinascita's backpack being replaced by the base Fenice's along with the wings. I am going to take the broken wings and make swords out of them I think.

Seriphyn · **10-26-2015, 05:56 AM**

Eee, I just bought about $80 worth of models Tongue

Â 4 in total, got 'em on order.

All of them are pre-painted though, what are people purchasing that require you to paint it?

Melphina · **10-26-2015, 01:29 PM**

I'm not exactly sure what you are asking ^.^'
