  • This video I build my very first Gundam diorama using Bandai's Z'GOK in 1:144th scale. Yes, the figures are tiny!!!
    EDIT: My apologies about the audio. I had a copyright claim on some of the music even though the music I used was supposed to have been copyright free. I got TH-cam to auto remove the music and it made a bit of a mess with the narration.

    I have a stash of model kits that I started collecting way back in the early 80's. What is the oldest kit in your stash?

    More gunpla dioramas need people in them for scale. It shifted the whole thing!
    I really loved this diorama. It made me think of the Studio Ghibli film Laputa: Castle in the Sky with the moss-covered robots.

      I think when you get into sci-fi and then start building at such a small scale... one needs to add figures for scale and especially for Gunpla.

    This turned out great despite the issues you had. Every resin pour will go so much better!

      After this pour it did help my confidence with resin. The very first disastrous one really did my head in as not only was it a big fail, but also a costly one.

    This was more than worth the effort. I’m just getting into gunpla (on my tenth HG) and I can’t even imagine making dioramas. This one in particular blew me away.

    For the issue of adhesives for foam. Contact cement is commonly used with foam in the cosplay world and tends to work on alot of types of foam Im not 100% sure for XPS. if your looking for a decent brand i know around europe and uk Evo-Stick is a solid brand.
    The diorama looks amazing keep up the amazing work.

    Will be even better if you used a brighter red on the Z'Gok. A little bit of contrast instead of everything dark ...

    When i see dioramas like those id really wish there was a backstory to them like how did it get destroyed? Who destroyed it? What did it fight for? How did those people stumble upon it? Stuff like that

    Somehow, saying this is "Very nicely done," is a gross understatement.
    As an aside, when I was in Junior High School in the mid-1970's, Bandai was mostly known for its 1/48 scale Armor Series of World War 2 kits, that came with engines and detailed interiors. I wish that someone would reissue these.
    As for the oldest kit in my stash, I suppose that would be my two Revell 1/32nd scale Highway Pioneers model car kits. One is a 1907 Sears Touring Buggy, and the other is a 1910 Studebaker Electric Coupe. I think they may be molded in acetate plastic, as opposed to styrene.

      It's interesting to me how much modeling had changed during my 20 year hiatus. Bandai have become a megaforce and Verlinden have almost disappeared. So many new techniques to learn and the range now available is mind boggling.

      @@ScaleModelGeek The new(ish) Bandai kits for "Gundam" and "Star Wars" are a real game changer with different colors of parts molded on the same parts tree. The Bandai "Darth Vader TIE Advanced X1" made me do a "double-take" when I saw the solar wings were actually molded in two colors - and types - of plastic in one piece, so no painting is required. As Vader himself might say, "Impressive. Most impressive."
      I'm almost 64, and I have been building plastic model kits for over 55 years with no major breaks. (With the stress of family and job, modeling kept me sane.) I remember hobby shops as late as when I was in Junior High School that still carried some old, solid wood model kits alongside the latest, injection molded kits. My joke is that I was too young to build solids from wood, and now I'm too old to dabble in 3D Printing. But with the wide variety of injection molded kits available, I'm set for life . . . .

      @@ScaleModelGeek The same could be said of real subjects. The old 1/72 scale Monogram P-51B/C was as good as it got. But when compared to the latest model of that aircraft, there is no comparison. That said, those old MPC "Star Wars" kits were about par for the course when they came out around the time I graduated from High School; at least as far as level of detail was concerned. Our biggest complaint at the time was the throwback to "box scale" with the X-Wing being around 1/42 scale, and the Millennium Falcon hovering around 1/80th scale. (Though we 'declared' them 1/48 and 1/72, respectively.) The problem continued in the early 1980's with the Empire Strikes Back kits also being to no standard scale, but made to "fit the box." The new Bandai kits fixed these problems!
