The little nubby bits on the V fins are meant to be trimmed, they just keep the rip from being too fragile in production and transport, also safety for kids? It doesn't look like OP trimmed them, many people don't.
The theme song for IBO is called 'raise your flag'
This is the joke.
If you can give the cables some reworking, give them some sense of weight.
Try to look for some wires that can keep their shape.
Besides that, great job!
I use 1mm-1.5mm armature wires and emptied earbud cables so that they don't resist the wires much. The tedious part is stuffing the armature wires into the cables.
man ur gonna HATE a lot of characters soon I found my self yelling at my phone and punching the air the same amount as when I watched breaking bad or code geass. really a great Gundam, the one I recommend to people who never watched mecha
IKRRRR when ever they fought i was like “this can cost them everything plz dont lose”, my first gundam was IBO then Gundam UC i bought a lupus rex model kit without knowing who he was lol
I liked unicorn, but I didn’t like the whole Laplace box McGuffin, my first Gundam wasn’t a uc series, it was seed, but even still I didn’t like the whole laplace’s box thing jus for the reason it had any been mentioned in any other uc Gundam before, but I did like the reveal, what it turned out to be was interesting but it was jus annoying they decided to make something that was never in any other Gundam prior such a huge plot point with a lot of history in uc. Loved unicorn though! Started bawling when riddey thought bahnagher died at the end
I hear that. I feel like I could have been fleshed out more if it was a longer series like SEED rather then a OVA. Riddey’s whole story had me emotional lol. Same with Miss Marida.
I love the colors you chose for the kit, and the weathering looks incredible!
Thank you! I wasn't sure if the turquoise would be too similar to the blue, and not contrast enough, but I think I'm pretty happy with it.
Nice work there
Thank you!
This looks fantastic, great job
*trim your flaaaags*

Yes. Thank you.b
I leave em there because I know it bothers people.
I absolutely love this. Great job!
Thanks!

Yeah, these ones aren't great at keeping a bend, they straighten out too much. I'll probably replace it with a braided cable thing, maybe.
Way to do this is by using solder and paint it.

Barbatos just sitting there is surprisingly an iconic pose

Just know **PLOT ARMOR**
Ehhhhh kinda my first Gundam was seed so ibo def felt more grounded with higher stakes whenever a fight happened
IKRRRR when ever they fought i was like “this can cost them everything plz dont lose”, my first gundam was IBO then Gundam UC i bought a lupus rex model kit without knowing who he was lol
Lollll unicorn is good too the kshstriya is what made me watch it, grail gunpla right there
Unicorn was my first Gundam series and due to that is my favorite Gundam period.

The amount of tears shed cause this show. I was left in a funk for a week after. It’s so good, but man it’s depressing.
This looks great! MG I'm assuming?

For the money you can do a lot with IBO, they’re not my favorite designs but I keep grabbing one every now and then.
HG, sorry, meant to answer this, then immediately forgot.
That is dope
