HG 1/144 CHERUDIM GUNDAM TRIGGER WARNING - CUSTOM GUNPLA BUILD

[@spiritsauce]

Ok but the reason for those 5 star Tristan reviews is because of an awesome inside joke! Basically Scalpers in Japan have a habit of constantly picking up multiple copies of highly sought after Gunpla and reselling them at ridiculous prices, so the Gunpla community in Japan decided to fight back by spreading misinformation that the Tristan is a really good kit even going so far as to making Custom Tristans and putting 5 star reviews on online store pages for the Tristan and the Scalpers fell for it, now trapped with multiple boxes of horrible Gunpla that will never sell. Thus is the strange reviews of the Tristan youve been seeing and that you showed in the video!

Dude I love this (hopefully) series! I want to get into customizing kits like this myself, and you sharing what works and doesn’t work is so helpful because it seems we’re learning together! Being unafraid to show off your mistakes and learning is something you don’t see in a lot of model kit videos so it’s a nice change or perspective. Keep up the great content!

[@legoskyminer3155]

In the wise words of Duncan Rhodes: “Thin your paints. Two thin coats will always look better than 1 thick coat” For me, most miniature paints thin well with water, and I’ve had great results when using them to paint gunpla.

[@mellasio3911]

[@SideswipePrime606]

Especially Citadel paint, which he was using. It's very thick out of the bottle.

[@nubnce5705]

Here's a tip for masking complex shapes: Place the tape over the entire part first and then push it down so it follows all the contours of the part. Then using a hobby knife, cut out the shape and peel. The tricky part is to not cut too deep that you end up cutting into the primer. You'd want to use thin, hobby grade masking tape and a fresh blade for your hobby knife for best results.

[@kanadetone]

Fantastic custom! Honestly, it's still great to look at even after you went into depth in pointing at the challenges and flaws. Here are two suggestions I would have. First is that if you're impatient like me, finish (cut, clean, paint, panel line, decal, topcoat) your custom in portions: chest and head first, arms and legs next, weapons last etc. Find a sequence that you like. I find that having these gratifying checkpoints in a build really generates motivatation as you can see how your finished custom is coming together. Another suggestion would be to determine what you want out of your custom. Do you want a beautiful custom action figure kit that preserves full articulation, or a stellar statue build that focuses on being an art piece over having a fully poseable gunpla. This personally helps me determine how to go about a build. I'm still learning too, but I hope this helps you and everyone because viewing custom gunpla is really awesome!

[@uoducks52]

It's kind of refreshing seeing someone on KZbin customizing a kit with minimal prior experience. I hope you continue to customize future kits and post em!

[@ADBXoon]

Little tip I got from a Gunpla customizer vid some time ago, if you want to get hid of those gapping seam lines and still look like nothing happened, save the runners where the parts came in originally, when the kit happens to have those spaced spots you can cut the runner in smaller pieces and dip then in paint thinner, the thinner will kind of melt the plastic and you can use it to cement the seam over with a plastic that match the color of the parts you are working with, then just sand it to look like it’s a single piece. (I know it may not have worked on this kit cause it’s an old one, but still)

11:22 Elmer's glue: before putting the clear bits in, slap a coat of glue, let it dry and assemble the parts. After you've primed and fully painted the part just peel off the glue. If you have liquid masking even better. Elmer's glue is a cheap but effective alternative. 17:16 If you had kept the runners, it would've been as simple as snipping a few bits of the same color plastic, put those in a sealable container with enough tamiya cement to submerge them in and melt into a plastic goo. You then simply apply said goo into those seam lines, let it dry and then sand it down. Seam lines, gone! 18:56 Decant your rattle cans. You may have run out of propellant but there's still plenty of paint left in that can. You can load up your airbrush with those leftover spray paints. No waste.

[@fraser7211]

Cant wait to see what you end up doing for the IBO custom with how well this custom turned out! I'd like one of my first projects to be a mix of Barbatos Lupus(might get the Rex not sure) and Reginlaze Julia with some 30MM spear for a Final Fantasy Dragoon Gundam, so ill be taking notes from your released content on that Dantalion custom for sure!

[@artistpoet5253]

11:29 try this for small or super detailed masking: pva glue. Just put a bit on a palette, brush on and rinse brush very good afterwards. Let dry then paint. Be sure to use the same kind of tweezers to remove the film as you would for a soft decal. A plastic cocktail pick or wood tooth pick is good to get an edge open. Otherwise, there are lots of masking fluids found in shops that carry drafting/illustration supplies. Sanding blocks/sponges are best found in beauty supply shops along with tweezers. Use binder clips, called bulldog clips in some countries, to clamp guns together. These are found anywhere stationary and school supplies are sold.

[@OtherSpartin]

I just want to say, cause I know with how you talked there were a lot of things you didnt like in the process, the kit still came out beautiful! You did a great job choosing the colours you had and while it took extra work doing it is better than the work never happening. The colours are extreme for me but it would really has a great shelf presence for my kits now if I had it. Creative modifications in the legs to make colouring and disassembly easier is something I always love and even for a rough shot job your filing work looked clean. In the video I didnt see any Brush strokes on the guns myself which the decals probably did do a good job with. Lastly the decals were straight clean and tastefully placed, didnt feel overwhelmed with decals. For my standards as a customizer its easily 8/10. Better than a lot of my own work!

If you have trouble filling up the seams using cement and you are going to paint the kit, your usual everyday superglue(such as loctite) is your best friend(at least for me) also, if you use lacquer spray paint and panel line the kit with enamel paint, you won't destroy your paint job(unless you scrub hard)

[@kenlee2193]

this absolutely does NOT look like a beginner's work, honestly. Time to get a compressor and airbrush, proceed to the next level of gunpla builder. I used tamiya spray cans before I got myself a compressor and an airbrush, and those cans are quite wasteful for spraying small parts.

[@V2ULTRAKill]

@Bob Dole that doesnt mean they arent wasteful They are its objective fact you use more paint per surface than an airbrush when dealing with small parts

I really enjoyed this one, it's fun to follow the beginning of a customising journey and it's a lot more relevant to the experiences of someone like me, who started customising Gunpla this year, than a video by a master builder and painter (as fun as those are). Plus the end result looks cool, it has a lot of character and there's a definite reason for making it the way you did. 'Trigger Warning' is a great mecha name too.

Tip for hiding brush strokes, thin out the paint a bit more by brushing some of it off onto a piece of card or your table protector a bit. That way it reduces the amount of paint on the brush enough that you will be able to cover the piece but have minimal excess on the parts

[@SOBERABSORBER]

[@JamesWhite-qz7st]

-Tamiya makes tiny masking tape. You can get a pack of three that comes with a dispenser for a pretty reasonable price. -Tamiya also makes panel line accent color that is meant for use on kits that have been painted and top coated. It comes in black/grey/brown and the bottles have built-in brushes for application. (If you use the panel line accent color you will need to use enamel thinner in lieu of the plastic eraser)

[@invinitezero]

I'm just casual modeller, but I'm gonna help give some tips 1. First of all, TOP COAT it, either flat or gloss clear coat it's make even unpainted gunpla look alot better, it's make the surface texture more uniform and smooth, also cover the brush mark and flush water decal with the surface. 2. You can use regular spraycan for saving budget but avoid flat color paint for easier panel lining and applying decals. 3. Its ok a little bleed on masking on harder shape, you can use hand brush clean it up, and top coat will cover the light brush mark. 4. Deep seamline need to be removed with putty tamiya or other brand if to deep then its need an epoxy putty but consume a lot of time. 5.And lastly, no need to be perfectionist, some of casual modeler i know that can produce professional work end up just top coating their kit because full painted kit consume a lot of time.

[@casvaldei3031]

15:56 *THIN. YOUR. PAINTS.* Also dude, PLEASE hit those eyes with the Tesseract Glow.

[@verdeletdesigns]

You did well for the tools you had. For the hard to mask areas, you can use liquid mask by Vallejo. It's a liquid that starts off in a turquise color, and turns see through when dry. It can be peeled off once finished. Give the base paint a day to dry and cure to ensure it does not harm it. I apply with a toothpick, dabbing over the small areas. It's great for chip effects too. You can combine with masking tape too. For the seam lines you have two options. Mod it like you did, or make it a panel like. So for the head, you could have used a knife to scribe a mirror line on the other side. But this can be hard to do with out scribing tape (to protect the plastic from sliding).

[@DJ_Birdman]

I honestly loved this video Mecha G. Despite being new at the custom scene, you did a very good job! And I’ve hand painted my 3 NG wing kits, and I tell you. Hand painting them was hell at times. Mainly because of how the plastics were colored then. I have to get into color customizing as well, which hopefully will be with my first kitbash. Which will be a bash of Hyakushiki, Ez8, Tallgeese (1,2 or 3 cause I just need the torso), the rifle from the Nu, Alex’s shield, and a Zaku shoulder shield. It’s a mech that I made for a Table top campaign that’s close to my heart and I can’t wait to make it.

[@nemisysone]

Wow, I like the Cherudim Saga in Red!!! Ironically, it's a kit that I really liked because of the "weapons overkill" feature...I thought it eloquently answered the question of "How many guns can one Gundam carry?" (Eight). The way you customized it was incredible!!! A very clever take on the words "Trigger Warning" applied to a Gundam!!! Too bad you still don't like it, because you really made it shine!!! Very badass customization if I do say so myself!!! Eagerly awaiting the Dantalion (another Gundam design I like) customization episode!!!

As a fellow mediocre custom build, I'd say yours is great, never thought you could make a pattern with masking tape, very inspiring. I was so into metallic colors because it resembles car paint but now I'm going matte.

From 2:33 to 3:05 , the spinning display of multiple gunpla kits felt like as if it was some kind of Gundam video game (or just a fighting game) when you're choosing from a character roster as multiple characters appear and fade as you move the arrow towards each character.

[@Darkmajic]

For hand painting, I’ve heard that doing multiple layers in a lattice pattern helps hide brush strokes

[@joemakesmodels6640]

One thing that is definitely worth doing is chipping. I usually just use a jar or either dark/light gray, get a toothpick and lightly tap onto edges. This helps me hide some of the imperfections. Especially for something like the hazard stripes on this kit. Just to cover up a bit of a shakey masking

[@michaelwoodyard7995]

Tamiya sprays are lacquer and GW are enamel. Which is why the panel line wiped off easily on the Tamiya sprays. Using a new blade to cut masking tape, which Tamiya masking tape is great, is a good idea. Zach from Zakuaurelies has a lot of great tips that has helped me in my painting adventures. Though he uses an airbrush, many techniques can be applied to spray cans. Gunpla is Freedom, enjoy the hobby how you want.

[@michaelwoodyard7995]

Using some makeup tools, nail file and tweezers are usually cheap and easy to get. May help you get into those harder to reach places that the sanding block you have can’t reach. I would suggest a normal nail file and a “finishing” nail file. I also spray my lighter colors first, mask, then spray my darker colors. I also, use a toothpick or skewer end to help make sure the masking tape is all the way down to prevent bleeding of the paint.

I have some insanely high grit sandpaper I can cut up for little crevices I got from Halfords/generic automotive and bicycle store. Also, as our lord and saviour Duncan Rhodes tells us, two thin coats. Put a brushful or two on a plastic pallet/ceramic tile and thin with a bit of water, and when it's fully covered you can scrub off that pallet in sink and use it again

[@williamwu7938]

Most of the stuff I paint is by hand and the number one tip I can give is to get paint thinner. You want to get the paint to have a milk-like consistency, and it goes on smooth and dries with no brush strokes. Thinner saves lives. (also tamiya acrylics last insanely long)

[@beargarret5920]

awesome build! water down citadel paints and double or triple layer to prevent brushstrokes

[@luminusprime]

If you're looking to spray multiple colors on a small piece ignoring the sculpt, I recommend making custom masks by placing the part face down on the dry side of wax paper and drawing the outline. Flip it over, cover the outline in some variation of scotch tape, clear packing tape is good because it has a nice width but NOT masking tape! Masking tape is too thick and not adhesive enough to work at model scale, that's why you get fuzzy lines and bleeding. Now make your stencil with a fine tip sharpie. Then you can cut it out, a bit oversized, peel the mask off, and apply it to the part (do not do this until the main color is *completely* cured). Peel off while the new paint is still tacky to avoid tearing.

[@jonathangarza1656]

honestly this looks really good for someone customizing a kit through trial and error. thats only going to make you better in the long run. i would suggest obviously an air brush and some tayima weathering kits to weather them and even get the gundam marker airbrush to use as well. i find both a regular air brush and acrylic paints and gundam marker air brush which you can hook up to a compressor are worlds better than the cans. i would use the cans for big projects like the neo zeong and the jumbo size kits. proper tools as well which thats an obvious. still great job on it.

[@SideswipePrime606]

Wow! Those Tamiya spray paints are downright sexy! I gotta buy me some of those, especially that Metallic Red! EDIT: People recommend thinning your paints with water. I'd recommend also using a wet palette for painting. Just get a tupperware, put a paper towel in it, wet the paper towel to make it "swampy", then put parchment paper over the paper towel. Doing this gives you a surface to easily mix paints and thin them as much or as little as you want, the paints also won't dry out for a while when on a wet palette.

[@RubenDelight]

For tools, there should always be something like a modelers hobby shop in the EU. It's generally for train modeling, and other like Revell type models and stuff like that, they will generally have everything you need for gunpla modeling as well. For sanding you can also obv just get nail files and stuff like that, or just go to amazon which'll have a good number of things! When it comes to hazard lines. You can buy very thin modelers masking tape that comes in various thicknesses. Tamiya sells it, or you can just get them from like aliexpress or something for cheap
