Re: Custom Armor Configurations
Hmm, use super glue BUT tiny drops or Plastruct Plastic Weld. Both will work well on the plastic use.
Gentlemen do prefer blonde's.

Re: Custom Armor Configurations
Actually, I don't think there are any modifictation necessary for neither the shinki nor the gundam.royalpain88 wrote:How about a tutorial on how to use gundam parts for the Shinki's?
I think it's the polycap swivel joints in HG 1/100 scale Virtue, (and presumably Exia, Dynames and maybe Arios, since they all use a similar system), that just happens to be the right size for Shinki connectors.
The connector used is generally the shoulder swivel of the Gundam, and the swivel joint in the Gundam's thigh.

Re: Custom Armor Configurations
I've actually heard that most glues will deteriorate plastic. The plastic weld (I've gotta find me some o' that!) would probably work pretty well, but I would avoid super glue for anything other than tightening certain joints.royalpain88 wrote:Hmm, use super glue BUT tiny drops or Plastruct Plastic Weld.

It's been a while since I've posted, I know... But hey! I managed to repair Arnval's wing with that model cement. It did take a few tries; the wing re-broke at least twice, but I finally got it to work for display and light play purposes. The Testor's glue isn't as strong a bond as I'd like, but it works for the time being.
A grounded flier is not fun to deal with... I woke up several mornings to Arnval sanding over her broken wing pieces, glaring at me with her arms crossed. She can be pretty intimidating when she wants to be... And all of her weapons were still in tact...

Re: Custom Armor Configurations
Testors tube glue is too runny for my taste. The Plastruct liquid cement is brush on. Can be found at most or all hobby shops.

Re: Custom Armor Configurations
XD Vitulus's armor made into a guard robot ^_^


Of course it has some bugs to work out, as
it tries to shoot Murmeltier all the time (that's
why she's yelling at poor Vitulus ;.; )

Re: Custom Armor Configurations
After seeing this picture from fg-site my Strarf decided she wanted an upgrade from just just spiky. The Catch, that armor is made with two Strarf bis and a Valona. I only had an Original Strarf and a Strarf bis, now then...

Re: Custom Armor Configurations
i have to admit that configuration is cool and spiky... but a bit bulky for my tastes...

Juvisys everywhere! Hear me! Are your babypunching capabilities not up to snuff? Think you can squeeze a few more ounces of raw power in?
You just need a little flower in you.
