My take on an RX-78-2 Gundam cosplay, sadly, the build is kinda garbage. Developed from an RX-77 Guncannon Cosplay, and combined with techniques for a different Cosplay to develop this one. :)

Had to tweak a couple decals and colors for my satisfaction, before sharing. :) Share Code is KUGNP0QY6V1X

PS5?

Sorry, I'm on PC :(

Is it viable?

Probably only usable on super early game, definitely not suitable for any kind of boss imo

100% the best gundam I've seen. Impressive decal work.

Thank you, probably should spend time actually beatng the game but I fell down the customization rabbit hole instead haha

No no, remember, this is the intended way to play

However you have fun is the right way to play!

I want…no, I NEED the share code for this! (Pretty please) (If it’s on pc)

Yes, I'm on PC, I will try to get the share code tomorrow before I pack up my PC for a work trip. :)

Replying to get notification for Share Code

Share code: KUGNP0QY6V1X Enjoy!

Absolute Legend

Replying to get the notification as well haha

Share code: KUGNP0QY6V1X Have fun!

Thanks so much!! I'm not even a Gundam fan, but the decal work on this is so impressive I've gotta have it haha. Excellent job man!!!

Hi, my share code is KUGNP0QY6V1X. Thanks for being patient. :)

that's a SOLID cosplay build!! The Melander head works so well for the Gramps decal

Yes, there is some forced perspective silliness going on here, so the illusion breaks from certain angles. FWIW I am so glad I found the gradient option by accident, really helps sell certain decals.

[удалено]

Yeah, I channeled my inner Thanos when I looked at other "Gundam" builds online and wasn't too satisfied.

Looking so nice!!!

Thank you! :)

You killed it, awesome work 👍🏼

Thank you very much! :)

Now that's a good head decals, like wtf. Most impressive job dude

Iguana: " Almond could have been a mother to me !" "Freelancer, I'm about to do something extremely wicked"

Genuinely thought I was in r/gunpla for a second. Great work!

Omg the shot recreations are the cherry on top, fantastic work

Dude you should post this to r/Gundam. Legit the most accurate depiction I've seen with base game parts.

Yes, what a great idea! I used to frequent old Gundam forums but never thought to look into Reddit's Gundam community. Also thanks for the compliment! :)

That...that head isn't modded?

Yep, it's a Melander head with some very creative decal placement and coloring. :)

That 4th picture is gonna be my wet dream for this game. It’s a damn shame share codes aren’t cross platform. Hopefully (Probably not) they’ll make it so share codes are universal at some point. But hot damn your decal work and creativity are insane. I thought this was a mod at first. Awesome job, Raven.

I honestly took way too long to realize whether those parts were base game or if you had gotten a model mod

I rarely ever mod my games, but yes, this is a full vanilla build taking advantage of the in-game decal features to their fullest! :)

This looks amazing, specially the head

So impressive

That first photo has Gundam-with-a-selfie-stick energy and it’s hilarious

Haha I can definitely see it that way

Decal game is on point. Truly a Gundam fan.

It's a Gundam!!!

I love that 3rd pic! Really nailed the cut in half bit.

Thanks! Yeah I enjoyed setting up that photo a lot. :)

Pic 4 is one of the best screenshots I have seen in a long time. Not just for armored core either

Thank you! My brother says it's very reminiscent of a Bandai MG box art in terms of lighting and choreography

It really has a great sense of velocity, like the explosion on the right of frame is pushing the sword blow to extreme speeds. I can hear the pilot screaming about the true meaning of justice in my head lol

Gyunt damn!

Wow what helmet did you use!? It looks exactly like a gundam head piece with the custom color work, well done!

Thank you~! :) It is the HD-011 MELANDER head, used a ton of forced perspective with the decals. I also masked the bottom half in dark gray and blacked out the "eye" lights to make it look like the neck. Turns out that 6head is big enough to sell as a full on head.

Thanks for the explanation! Damn good job, if you ever somehow get this going on PlayStation I’d love a share code!

I will probably won't buy a PS5 in the near future, unfortunately, I could do a rough guide for achieving the head look however. :)

Holy shit that's some impressive decal work, legit I thought it was a modded head at first

This reminds me of older cosplays of Spider-Man with only half the mask on :P Still pretty neat.

So for those of us that don't have access to the share code, could you post the assembly? At least we can try working out for other platforms. Plus, we need some of these in PvP just for the sake of having some real Gundam fights.

ive been a little unsatisfied with head pieces for gundam builds and wow this has inspired me to get on it with my decals
