When u get a hg, you should always prepare to paint

Hmmm...damn should I pick up that 1/100 destiny for the stand? I heard those are limited edition... so unless a MG version of destiny comes out I might just pick up that 1/100 destiny instead...

EDIT:: BTW does anyone know if the 1/100 Destiny has the "Energy" wings? I'm wondering because I used google to translate this site http://www.geocities.jp/hetare_d_max/gallery.html and about half way down, they stated that the 1/100 Destiny gundam does not show the energy wings in those pics.

the 1/100 doesnt have the energy wings, however the HG 1/144 destiny gundam does

sword calamity custom kit

**heero** · Tue, 10-04-2005, 02:22 AM

I got a newb question. I never used paint before so I want to ask this. I got a box of those paint that comes in 3 colors and its made just for HG strike rouge 1/144. There's also other ones for different models. I want to know if i need some kind of thinner to mix the paint or can i just apply it directly with a brush? Cause my frd said something about mixing it so its not so thick but Im not sure what hes talking about. thx

here

scroll down and you'll see it, along with the strike's IWSP custom kit

thats so damn old. You get from a modeling magazine along with a dvd to show how to paint it. And you only get the custom parts to make it sword calamity you have to buy the Calamity kit yourself.

Edit:

finished building Raider, it was a pain in the ass

I would think that Sword Calamity would be one of the easier models to "kitbash" on your own. Especially if you choose to do "Unit 01" since that one is the same color as the Calamity except the added parts. Just buy Calamity and 2 Sword Strikes. You would have to paint the Sword Strike parts, and would have to remodel the backpack some for the second sword. Depending on how the arms are designed the arms from Strike may need to be substituted and painted, but larger parts are easier to paint.

I almost feel sorry for that Ginn (Goud Veia custom I believe, either that or just your own custom paint job). It could have a pilot with the skills of every main character from every Gundam and still have nearly 0% chance to win against those 3 (keep in mind the Ginn has no Beam weapons and can't hurt the Gundams).

there are no 1/144hg sword strike and the sword calamity parts are all red and u will need to paint it because there are supposed to be differents colors on the red parts too. And I paint marker that Ginn. And yea i also do feel sorry for it lol

I was too lazy to make sure there was a 144HG. Oh well.

Sword Calamity check the "Rena Imelia" Colors. Unit 01 was just basically Calamity with upgrades. The red one is simply Edward Harraleson's custom paint scheme.

EDIT: In fact, here is a couple of pages from Destiny Astray Scoop (chapter) 5:

I wonder if that is true that the 1/60 weapon systems parts for normal 1/60 strike model can be used on the PG strike?? Have some one tried it?? Does anyone really know?

**AtHRunOwNZaLL** · Thu, 10-06-2005, 07:51 AM

read curium's first post on page 30, it says if it can do it or not

Pirate_arrrrr · Thu, 10-06-2005, 10:31 AM

So, anyone has any update for when PG Sword/Launcher skygrasper coming out?? or are they even come out at all??

And it would be nice to know if they are going to make Freedom PG too.....
