- Hi everyone!
Thanks for joining me on this custom gunpla build. In this video I'm walking you through my process of weathering and battle damaging Char's Z'Gok while trying to up my skills in regards to custom scribing panel lines. With this build I'm testing out new tools and techniques that hopefully make me a better gunpla builder and customizer.

I hope you like the different approach to my usual content. If so, please let me know. I was thinking about doing a follow up video to this where I talk about my experiences with the new techniques. Would you be interested in such a thing? Let me know :)

Thank you for watching!
Go for it!😁
Do you need to let the pieces get dry after applying gundam marker or do you smudge right away?
@@user-ye7lp9lg1c That is a good question. I learned this the hard way. You definitely have to wait for the marker to dry a bit. Otherwise the paint comes off completely. There is a sweet spot, you'll have to experiment for yourself with a spare piece and see what works best for you. The longer you wait, the harder it gets to smudge and the more residue will be left.
this video has better quality than any gunpla youtubers video i have ever seen. honestly, you deserve thousands more subscribers. i love your work. keep it up man
Oh I do think there are amazing content creators out there that are an huge inspiration to me. Nevertheless, I'm humbled by your words and I'm glad that you are enjoying the videos. Next project is going to be a Gundam diorama. Let's do this!
Nice build, nice editing, and that intro was 👌
Thank you, it was quite enjoyable to animate this.
I’m way to nervous to try custom panel lining great job !
I think as long as you enjoy the hobby, there is no need to pressure oneself into techniques that you feel uncomfortable with. After all, it's your very own journey and you do it for yourself :)
I’ve never jumped into customizing gunpla to any degree besides panel lining but I decided I wanted to start.
Your videos are incredibly inspirational and encouraging
Hey that's great. All the best with your first custom kit. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. Thanks for watching :)
I bought a cheap HG Z'Gok(the normal one) just to trying some scribing for the first time and for some reason TH-cam algorithm surprise me with this gem of a video..
I'm going to steal every amazing detail of that beautiful work. sorry, not sorry 🤣
TH-cam knows what you want and what you need 😂 Enjoy the learning process and good luck with the build :)
incredible channel with insane quality ,never stop!
Thank you for that compliment. Words like these keep me going. Never stop!
Great Video! Love the Music and the whole aestetic! Very informatic and great result!
You're always the first person to see and comment on the videos
This deseves way more views! really nice editing!
Thanks for watching. You are always welcome to share it on your socials ;) I'll see you in the next one.
This was such a pleasure to watch. The editing was really great, loved the zooms and camera angles synced to the music! Hard to believe that this was only your second time doing custom panel lines and weathering.
Thanks a lot for those kind words. Always nice to read words like this, considering that I decided to put a lot of effort into the presentation. I hope to do this kind of video again in the near future :)
Just bought HG Z'GOK CHAR'S CUSTOM, can't wait to build it 😀
Nice! Enjoy the build :)
this was such a fun watch and omg the end result!!! wow!!!
Hey Andrea, thank you for those kind words :)
Ty so much i knew caring people are still there
Thank you for the conversations. Keep on building and don't give up!
@@GiantRobolove i wont i love gundam and gunpla and other mecha model kits i can buy like 30 minute missions kits that u should check btw
That's the spirit. Thanks for the tip, I'll check them out. I was also looking the RG Eva kits. Always been a huge fan of Evangelion.
Awesome Intro Intro and insane quality as always. I have no idea what you're doing, but its beautiful to look at.
Haha thank you for watching even though it's outside of your niche
amazing video very informative!
Thanks a lot :)
Awesome video... yet again. Great production value. Although, I've gotta say that I enjoy the videos with narration more.
Thanks, I was trying out new filming stuff at that time. Also, thanks for your honest feedback, you don't know how much this helps :)
Topnotch editing mate. Subscribed!
Welcome on board. Thanks for checking out the video 👍
Such a beautiful and well-made video. Being new to the hobby, this aesthetic was extremely welcoming and inspiring. Being a visual learner myself, this presentation was incredibly useful. Please make more videos like this!
Hey thanks for those kind words and welcome to the world of Gunpla. Are you looking for a specific kind of technique? As I'm still a beginner myself, I can try and go more indepth into my experiences with certain disciplines. Right now I kinda fell into the diorama rabbithole and future projects revolve around those. But I try to not neglect those beauty builds.
@@GiantRobolove Honestly, as long as you keep the same editing aesthetic, I'll watch you do anything. I still can't believe how much I learned from this video, and how much it's helped me improve my weathering and panel lining. Take some aspects from the dioramas you've been enjoying - basing would be a logical next step. Not sure if you've played around with some color changing paint, but I'm currently on an airbrush journey to experiment with those paints from Turbo Dork and Vallejo ranges. I think you have tons to bring to the table with your presentation, and I really hope this channel takes off!
Thanks for the input. From a creator's point of view, these kind of comments really help. I've been toying around with the idea of doing multipart videos, so that I can go more in-depth with the topics.
Funny that you mention airbrush. I'm currently on the final stretch of editing my newest video, which actually revolves around airbrushing. Not a tutorial video, more inspirational.
Those colorshifting paints look amazing. I might try them some time. Thanks for the headsup!
@@GiantRobolove Regardless of what you end up doing - I'm really glad to have found your channel. You seem to have an excellent camera and good sensibility with lighting. Throw some stop animation in with your gunpla at the end of your videos to have the kit show itself off, and there's literally no reason why you won't hit 100k in a fee months of steady content.
Mad love and all the good stuff! Looking forward to more from you!
Your words are very encouraging. I'll do my best :)
Impressive work. Lots of great detailing. The panel lines scribing is very effective in giving the kit a great look, more aggressive and menacing. Excellent weathering overall. Great result without any painting! Like the video style. What editing app did you use? How long did it take to make the video? Thanks!
Hey, thanks a lot. This one took quite a while to edit. I think the entire project took more than a month (not full time, was working on it after my day job) I'm using Adobe Premiere for editing and After Effects for all the animations. This video was an attempt to push the filmmaking a bit. It was fun and I'm trying to keep some of the elements of it for future videos, even though they are very time consuming to make.
@@GiantRobolove thanks a lot! I agree that video editing is a time consuming job especially if you have a day job, like most of us do 😂.
Mate, what app were u using to plan out the panel lines?
This was Clip Studio Paint. But I guess you could use any other paint app.
im planning to use the same technique with the gundam marker for weathering, do you recommend smearing grey all over white plastic or do i have to be more precise? Also did you put anything on the brush while smudging the paint @10:34? if not, how long do i have to wait after apply the marker before smudging?
Hey, one thing before I answer your questions: ever since I did that video, I found a better way of doing the smudge technique. Instead of using a make up brush like this, use a melamine sponge. It gets rid of the paint better. Check out its results here: th-cam.com/video/GTSs477Ba0U/w-d-xo.html
But if you can't get a hold of such a melamine sponge, the make up brush is fine as well. Go all over the piece, no need to be precise, you will have enough time to rub it off if you feel it was too much. I didn't add anything to it, just rubbed off the paint. Leave the paint on for at least a couple of minutes. Maybe 3-5 minutes? You can always try it on a spare part to get a feel for it. You can tell, when the color settles. If you wipe it off too quickly after applying, you will erase all of the color. So there is definitely a sweet spot that you need to find. If there is anything else I can help with, just ask :)
I need those blades
Is the z gokk a RG ?
Yes, this is the RG Zgok.
