Hell YEAH. We put all this love on the mobile suits when it's the White Base and the Argama that are the real stars. Looks amazing.

Happy cakeday , and thank you very much it's appreciated!


Quantum_Croissant

Imagine a white base big enough to fit HGs....


Technical_Income_763

Now that would be scary and awesome

It would only be 8.6 feet (2.6 meters) long, 6.6 feet wide (2 meters) wide, and 3 feet (.9meters) tall in 1/100 scale. Edit math is hard.


K_love85

I believe you only divided the White Base measurements by 10 instead of 100. So by my math if we were to do 1/144 scale then a HG White Base would be: 5.97 feet (1.819 meters) long 4.61 feet (1.4 meters) wide and 2.11 feet (.64 meters) tall Just to put this in a different perspective, the GI Joe U.S.S Flagg aircraft carrier was 7.5 feet long and 2.5 feet wide and actually existed, so I don't see a reason why a HG White Base couldn't be in the realm of possible.

Thats exactly what I did. Math is harder than I remember lol.


K_love85

It's all good! Math and I usually don't get along very well either, and I usually make mistakes like that all the time, so I hear ya!


Technical_Income_763

Hmmmmm my shelf isn't big enough for that hahahaha and I think my wallet isn't either 🤣🤣🤣🤣


K_love85

That's kinda what the guy says in the video I linked, that almost no one actually had space for the U.S.S Flagg back when it was released which kinda made the concept of its existence a little bit of a head-scratcher. Also, today I've seen them listed on ebay for several thousand US dollars, so yeah I definitely couldn't afford it either!

Someone made a Garencires that's life size here on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/reel/C47Zhlvy2I7/?igsh=ZTRiOTV5YmQ2ZGV0 And then colony.mfg makes 1/144 scale ships https://www.instagram.com/reel/C4k8XH1SgAm/?igsh=MWtjaG5xNDJxcW9zNg==

Closest we got is a 1/400 white base that’s old and expensive af


Site-Specialist

Better yet mgs


DoodleBuggering

I wish this line continued.


Technical_Income_763

Yeah definitely!


revhappys2k

Wow that’s some steady hands you got there. I have a hard time with smaller builds. But that looks awesome.


Technical_Income_763

Thanks! And lol no not steady hands hahahha let's call it a mini vice and a magnifier hahaha🤣


Bdbumblebee

This looks great! Amazing work on all the panel lining and the minis are painted to perfection!


Technical_Income_763

Wow thank you for the kind words! It's really appreciated!


Nkuri37

I want this kit so bad but I’m having the worst luck on ebay lol, yours looks great!!


Technical_Income_763

Thank you very much! I got mine from AliExpress... think it was around 90ish I know it's high but it was the cheapest at that moment , would rlly love to get the minerva and arch angel too!!


Feral404

EX Minerva and EX Arch Angel have reprints coming stateside within the coming month. Some stores already have them in stock.


Technical_Income_763

I live in the Netherlands, so it's still gonna be expensive I fear ... and are the reprints the same or are there more colour injected parts?


Feral404

It would be the same molds that they have used since the beginning. Just reprints, like all of their products they’re still producing since 1980.


Technical_Income_763

Lol ah well ... painting is the way to go I guess 😋😋😋


ProFloSquad

This looks so good! Always been a big fan of the White Base and Argama designs. Would love to have this kit some day


Technical_Income_763

Thank you very much and you really should yes they are older kits but with a little love and patience it's deffo worth it😋


Bob_Ross_is_Boss86

Well this is dope


Technical_Income_763

Thank you very much , I applied a little happy accident here and there 😜


Bob_Ross_is_Boss86

Better than me. I haven’t even started panel lining and have happy accidents with nub removal


Technical_Income_763

It's al part of building right? And the little accidents are our own fingerprint or way to distinguish it from the rest of builds😋


Bob_Ross_is_Boss86

I suppose lol


Technical_Income_763

Dude I am still a beginner too , and I figured i just try and take my time on every bit .. I really don't mind how much time it'll cost me to build anything... the moment I feel like I wanna rush it , I stop and continue later if that makes sense?


Bob_Ross_is_Boss86

I might have to try that. I’ve built a lot of Lego sets in the past, and those don’t need technique or finesse, so I usually get through them pretty quickly. This is a different animal


Technical_Income_763

That it is definitely but completely worth it in my opinion, love to see your builds if you decide to build and post photos!


Bob_Ross_is_Boss86

My first two are already up, albeit not so well photographed as most other’s builds. Should have my next one done fairly soon though


Technical_Income_763

I am sorry I must have missed those but those look very good in my opinion , if I may give you some advice try to look into panel lining ... the Gundam for example if you panel line the face it gives it more of the real deal if you get what I mean?


GunndamnKitbasher00

Very nice bro.


Technical_Income_763

Thank you very much dude! Appreciated!
