[@sil08]

i love how the wiring on the gun makes it more realistic

[@PencilKnights]

Thank you! Wiring the rifle was my favorite part!

[@GoBerserkNate]

World class customization! You really brought this alive! Your own casting of clear resin too is quite impressive. The creativity and patience it must have taken to map this whole project amazes me.

[@PencilKnights]

Thank you very much my friend!

[@waktutube]

what type of LED lights do you use and what type? Please make a complete tutorial on how to install LED lights for Gundam

[@PencilKnights]

The LED's I use are from ledlighthouse.com and evandesigns.com. The type of LED's consists of micro, pico, nano, and mega. I have another tutorial on my channel that shows how to install LED's in to 1/100 Gundam. Hope this helps.

[@waktutube]

@@PencilKnights okay

[@Jenkinsoup]

Man, great work! I'm saving this for future reference. I do have a quick question. I've tried making clear pieces using resin, however, I've noticed that they generate a lot of heat when being treated by UV light. Do they warp gunpla plastic if you were to parts as molds like at 1:01?

[@PencilKnights]

Hmm. I've never had the parts warp on me. Whenever I fuse a resin and plastic part together, I use very little amounts of uv resin to merge the two. The brand of uv resin I use is pretty strong. I've had zero problems in that regard.

[@kevinoctavioreyhannada5116]

What cable connector are you using?

[@PencilKnights]

I used a Micro male/female connector.

[@daarrkness6743]

Wish I had this skill and patience! Where can I buy though!

[@PencilKnights]

If you are interested, I can build another on commission.

[@duonghathai1807]

broooo how to cast the resinnn. Can u make a video about itttt. Your work really inspired me

[@PencilKnights]

Thanks man! In my HG Gundam Virtue video, I show how I cast parts from start to finish. Check it out. If it doesn't help, Ill put together a dedicated video for mold and resin casting my friend.

[@duonghathai1807]

@@PencilKnights thanks my friend. Im gonna check it right now

[@hanamphan6751]

What a wonderful and amazing clip. I really admire and want to be like you so I will ask you a few things about the components/materials you used in the clip. Please tell me the names of the LED bulbs, wires, connection jacks, switches, the power source to use all those bulbs, how many V and the capacity of the UV bulbs,... (that would be great). It would be great if you could provide links that sell that product). Thank you very much.

[@PencilKnights]

Thank you! 1. The LED's that I used to create the rainbow effect are called RGB LED's. The voltage is 3V from lighthouseleds.com/. 2. I used Micro Connectors from www.aliexpress.us/item/2251832658471131.html?spm=a2g0o.order_detail.order_detail_item.3.67ecf19c559gnM&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa 3. I used a 3-way slide switch from evandesigns.com/products/3-position-slide-switch 4. I used 2x AAA batteries as the power source and built it into the base. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07TJXS871/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_image_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1 That should start you off on the right track. If you have more questions, just let me know. Going forward I will incorporate my material list into the video.

[@hendrik6156]

​@@PencilKnightshey where did you buy the base? It looks really cool. AlsO I dont have any knowledge about leds. What is controlling the color changes? Do you need to install something like a controller?

[@PencilKnights]

@@hendrik6156 Hey. So I used a regular action base 1 and modified it with photo-etched parts. You don't have to install a controller if you dont want to. The LED's I used are RGB LED's. They change color on their own. If you want to learn about LEDs, check out a KZbinr called Otaku Builder. He's really helpful. Hope this helps.

Thanks. I appreciate the support!

[@_badz]

thats awesome. How are you getting the battery power into him? is it coming thru the magnets in the foot and base? i must have missed that part

[@PencilKnights]

Thanks! It's powered through the pelvis. The connection point is right next to the peg that connects it to the base. The magnets are to help it stand if I choose not to use the base.

[@_badz]

@@PencilKnightsAh I see, i saw you put that connector between the legs, but didnt see anything plugged in to it. would love to see a video on how you cast those resin parts, ive been thinking about trying that and looking for some info

[@PencilKnights]

On my channel, I have a video that goes in depth a bit more explaining the resin cast process. Check out my HG Gundam Virtue video. Hope this helps.

[@nub_gamers5457]

i want to ask something, did you connect rgb led with red led in the same powersource?

[@PencilKnights]

I used a 3 way sliding switch. The rgb was connected to the 1st lead, the red LED's was connected to the second lead, and the power source was connected to the 3rd lead. Here's the link to the switch. Hope this helps. evandesigns.com/products/3-position-slide-switch
