As for me, there are two other things I do: 1. take inspirations from the shows I watch (usually tokusatsu and other anime series); and/or 2. act out the desired pose myself; best if you have a mirror in front of you (well, it obviously only applies to ground poses)
The first Gunpla was made in 1980. The first Jojo manga was published in 1987. So suck on that Jojo fans, your beloved Jojo pose has always been gundam pose. No offence.
Personally, I find that having an artist's wooden model around really helps for generating ideas. Also sometimes making the general pose yourself (dumb as it sounds) helps get a feel for where each limb is in relation to the others.
I've always found every kit has a way of letting you know what looks good from kit to kit. Some look good with the standard poses you see where as others don't lend themselves to the same pose. After posing gunpla enough you start to "feel" out what's natural looking.. I rarely use reference photos anymore. Great vid
2:31 JOOOOOOOOOOOJOOO! What I noticed that made me realize that's what it was was the middle one doing Josuke's pose then I went back and looked to see all 3 doing poses. Great job.
I know Lightning Ace on Facebook, and he inspired me to pose a lot of Gunpla ever since I first saw him. Thanks for reigniting that spark in me since I now have an army of Gunpla to go through.
Lol, I don't know if you two have seen /r/Gunpla, the majority has Barnes and Noble tier poses. Gunpla is freedom, yes, but don't be surprised if your freedom looks like shit to others.
People:why not make your own pose! Gumdams:Let's see what you got newbs! hope you don't break some parts!😂 Rg Unicorns:😭😭😭 this is a pro tip his not saying to copy the pose that he used! if your a pro already just dont say those words dude instead support mecha❤
You're like one of those who'll literally call a pile of dogshit "beautiful" just for the sake of virtue signalling or the oje who'll call a blank piece of paper an "expensive" art because of " deep interpretation." He's talking about how to properly pose a Gundam so it looks realistic and not awkward. If you would like to, make your Gunplas lie down because why not. Art is not just about "breaking boundaries, " part of it is aesthetics and aesthetics are purely objective.
Another thing when taking photos for your gunpla that matters, is to find an angle, or to arrange the pose to the point that the silhouette of limbs don't overlap with the body's, which decreases the dynamic feeling of your photos heavily in most case.
Oh, what a good tutorial. It helped me correct and better the poses of My RG Justice and Qan[T]. Thank you ! And yes, I realized all my Gunpla in aerial poses have one bent knee.. it just feels more natural that way, even though the Wing is the one I usually place in more specific poses.. because.. Too much sauce in this Gunpla.
My go-to pose is a mix between the gunpla standing special and like.. a buildup to some martial arts move or a Rider Kick. Helps that I've got some Kamen Rider kits to work with.
My go-to pose for the Fenice type of gundam is to have it aim the rifle straight out from the side underneath the beam cloak. I also like to position the leading wing spread and out to the side, with the other wing more folded at the side.
Funnily enough... this video and the 5 tips in particular applies well to drawing Gundam MS as well. I tried sketching my own original MS inspired by the HiRM Astray Red Frame, but the pose I put it in looks too stiff, even with the S-shape of the body.
This and your review of the full Metal Panic! ARX-7 got me to sub great work. I cant wait to try of this out on my kits. And I like the Tristan Shield up reaching for the saber pose if it flying dog wiz lol
Apart from bracing, most of time if you 'split' the gunplay down the middle, one leg goes forward on one side and the arm goes back and the opposite on the others side.
tip for the dynames: when you're doing a sniper position like that, disconnect the rifle from the peg in the arm to get the elbow out to an actual shooting position. it looks more realistic and gets the scope closer to the head. general tip: i've found that when a pose looks kinda weird and unnatural, looking at pictures of people doing similar things or even acting it out yourself gives you a really good feel for what should be where.
Thanks for the help, I'm panel lining my RG Build Strike and wanted to see some dynamic poses for later, not realising you would use the same kit I have.
2:13 first thing that caught my eye was kyrios I love 00 and its kits, even after watching unicorn I still want more 00 kits to build (except I only have 3 gunpla and 00 raiser, exia repair 2 and barbatose lupus rex are my only kits
A very nice video! I much prefer this to Badgunpla's because his video is too specific with its example. Many kits do not have the articulation range of the Astray, and even then many do not have swords to pose with in the first place. That dynamic katana pose was an extreme that doesn't help much with rifle posing or general action/movement poses. This video, while longer, is more comprehensive and has a wider variety of poses included. I guess I should count myself lucky for having posing come naturally to me, but that's mostly because I have had a long history with action figure collecting before I got into Gunpla. I know many newcomers to Gunpla probably don't have the same experience, so getting natural and/or dynamic poses takes more thought beyond copying a still from the anime.
I love posing my kits with a wide stance, especially with my Try Burning Gundam, basing its poses with common martial arts stance that can also be very effective with other gunplas holding some equipments
The only way to top this video would be to do a Livestream where you build the High-Grade Psycho Gundam. Or a Livestream where you build a second Penelope for a giveaway.
bring back Who's That Gundam Part but as your patron supporters to record the phrase so you can have a crown of people saying it without that weird shift when you say "GUNDAM PART"
I've seen some on Reddit who just opened the wing, put the arms straight, and leg that looks like its just standing very awkwardly on a stand, idk if they are trying to make a standing pose on air or just gave up
Little trick if you want to do a ground pose and the ankle doesnt give enought mobility to keep the equilibrium: hide the action base under the back of the foot
Now I know how to pose better than *a part-timer at a book store!*
Was that a Bad Gunpla reference?
BigDaddyB207 That it was. Good catch.
huzzah! A man of quality!
Hes not wrong
Once saw a display case in a barnes and noble, dont know what particular gunpla butbitbwas in half, stickers were peeling off and it jus looked awful...
You should send this to Barnes and Noble.
They’ll need it the most.
HAHAHA
I complete agree!
dude some of the kits at the barnes and noble i usually go to have just fallen down and havent been fixed
YES THEY DO
🤣🤣🤣🤣 it's comedy gold! I hope they never change!
Believe me,
it's harder to make your Gunpla stand than posing it extremely.
Vanilla is pretty easy if you remember to plant the feet and feet the feet shoulder width apart

okay so im not the only one who thought i heard that XD
I remember him addressing that in a past video, his accent makes it sound that way and he is very aware of it

I just bought and built my first Gundam today. This video was a huge help. If I could show the pose I got my figure in I would but I am so happy.
I also notice if you try to do the pose your self, you can figure out whats missing from it to make it looks more natural
*cuts to my wife waking in on me doing Gundam poses in my underwear
One really great gundam to pose for me is the high grade Atlas. It's a beast for posing. Love your work by the way!
Another thing when taking photos for your gunpla that matters, is to find an angle, or to arrange the pose to the point that the silhouette of limbs don't overlap with the body's, which decreases the dynamic feeling of your photos heavily in most case.

Keeping an eye on the illustrations on the box does help, some of them came with really cool poses.
Posing gundam is like living

Basically the most important thing about gundam posing is how you pose the legs
Very useful tips there, thank you!
Great tips on posing gundam !!!!
25:20 Well, This doesn't seem to be the case for Mikazuki😂
Yes
The pelvic thrust is a standard for cool anime standing poses.
Here's another tip : Use Sticky Tack to stand up your Gunpla if that Gunpla is too top heavy to stand up and you don't want to use stand.
It's easy to pose them...but preventing pieces from falling off is the difficult part for me.
Same here. I got an (older?) Version of wing zero EW and he cant grip the gun. It always slips trough the Fingers 🙄
Im already happy seen Dantalion in there
