If you're just finding this tutorial, I wanted to let you know that its popularity led to the creation of an entire series discussing the use of Blender to create add-on parts for Gunpla kits. You can find that series here: th-cam.com/play/PLKcnRghgPkBMZrrh1AmlF7DArOh3cSJvf.html
Just the sort of thing I was looking for. I'm not the most adept Blender user, but this helped a lot with some of these hard surface tasks. Much appreciated!
Had to google a few things that I didn't know the shortcut for throughout the vid, but I did it! YAY! Thanks so much! now im going to follow along with your other tutorials.
Glad you found it helpful! FYI, in more recent Blender/Gunpla videos I've added a little gizmo in the lower left corner of the screen that shows all my key presses.
Thank you, so so much. I've been beating myself up on whether I should make my own custom backpack booster or get one that's ready made and modify(quite pricy). Your tutorial doesn't involve making huge complex parts but I think it'll be a good starting point for me.
It really is a great addon. There are others that do similar things, but for my workflow ND has just the right mix of powerful features while still keeping everything simple and streamlined.
Well this will be a huge help when looking into making a new mounting system for the funnels on RG Nu gundam since i added 2 of the long range funnels on the back. Just brain storming how i want to mount them whether off the waist for balance or backpack. Just makes me wish there was a scaled down version of the rage nucleon pack lol
Thanks! Even though this video is a bit old now, a lot of people have been finding it recently and asking for more, so I'm planning to do a few more videos in this series soon.
Very helpful! Especially the Panel Line part. I've been making Panel Lining by adding 4 Loop Cut (ctrl + R) that's really close together, choose the middle 2 edges or vertices, and then shrink them down. It kinda worked, but it adds waaaay too much edges. Glad that i find your solution here. Do you ever planned on doing blender tutorial for joints?
Cool video... when you convert the file into a .stl , did you apply all the modifiers first or it just reads the file with modifiers on? Thx on advance!
You don't need to apply the modifiers before exporting, but it's usually a good idea to have your part selected and then check the "export selected only" box in the stl export dialog.
@@gunplamark thanks a lot for ur reply, i ll keep that in mind... am still amazed that modifiers have nothing to do with what's on the viewport when it comes to 3d printing.. awesome!
hi umm, im now currently making a 3d model kit and im gonna 3d print it in a 3d printer which has 0.2-0.3 mm marginal error. to connect a peg do it need a space from the hole to the peg exactly as the marginal error which is 0.2 or lower in order to make it a perfect fit?
I don't 3d print entire kits. I do design custom detail parts to add to the normal plastic Bandai Gunpla kits that I build. Currently I don't sell any of those parts, but I'm considering doing so in the future.
Definitely! I have a few ideas already for some Gunpla-related Blender projects, and I'll try to get them recorded soon. If you have specific things you'd like to learn about, let me know.

Are they sturdy? I always heard that printed parts arent sturdy like normal parts

Thank you!!! This is what I have been looking for!
finally someone who shares cad tutorials strictly for gunpla.
Very useful Addon, Thank you very much Mark 🙏😃
Thanks ... for the video and specially for introdcuing the ND addon 👍
It really is a great addon. There are others that do similar things, but for my workflow ND has just the right mix of powerful features while still keeping everything simple and streamlined.
thank you for making this video! pls make more!
I've started a series on this topic. The full playlist is here: th-cam.com/play/PLKcnRghgPkBMZrrh1AmlF7DArOh3cSJvf.html
nice vid! Subscribed since I like both model kits and 3d modeling~
Thanks for the sub!
thanks! This was really helpful! I've been struggling to find a good way to do this exact thing
Awesome! Glad this helped you out.

Do you ever planned on doing blender tutorial for joints?
I'll add that suggestion to the list of topics to cover on my new Blender / Gunpla series.
great tutorial! 👍
Subscribed! Please do more!
Thanks! A lot of people have been asking for more of these kinds of tutorials. The next one should be posted later this week!
damn u really help me

I'd start with the 0.2 adjustment, which should get you close. You could always sand down the peg if it's still a little too tight.
Fire
It's not downloading for me. You just click "I want this" right?
edit: nvm, turned out I had to right click on the link to get to checkout.
where do you find your gundam kit files bro or do you make them and if you do them your self do you sell them
I don't 3d print entire kits. I do design custom detail parts to add to the normal plastic Bandai Gunpla kits that I build. Currently I don't sell any of those parts, but I'm considering doing so in the future.
@@gunplamark that’s brill mate iv found a few full gundam kits now and bought them so can’t wait get stuck in on printing them man 👍
Can you do more about blender
Definitely! I have a few ideas already for some Gunpla-related Blender projects, and I'll try to get them recorded soon. If you have specific things you'd like to learn about, let me know.
