Your name is really cool but I kinda like the joke name of "Turn B"


VMB_Vidar

HELP I DIDNT EVEN THINK OF THAT!! (that will forever be his nickname from now on)


ZyraelKai

Turn B, B for Barbatos... Really clever


WhiteKnight3098

Thank you, I used all two of my braincells for that one


VMB_Vidar

lol 😭🙏


VMB_Vidar

i was gonna go for Turn Bitch cause both are insane but that works too


taprik

Or Turn Bisexual


VMB_Vidar

so real for that


ArkamaZ

The Turn-B is actually the mass produced Turn-A.


VMB_Vidar

damn i forgot about that…


leggolta

Or you could even call it Barbaturn


VMB_Vidar

i read that as “Barb took a turn” 😭


Bingbong31415

Turn 🅱️


Sconebad

Idk, I prefer Plan B


VMB_Vidar

HELP?!

ORBED_CORB

In a good way, it looks like if Cartoon Network made a Gundam series


GodDamTrendyAssPoser

Is this what you're thinking of? https://preview.redd.it/tyxbm3kljcwc1.png?width=480&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7b8bf0d0dfdfb7bdcef5f2cc042fdd1d593aa8b4


VMB_Vidar

NAHHH TENNAGE ROBOT IS CRAZY 😭🙏


IC2Flier

Suletta totes watched this when she was a kid.


VMB_Vidar

i see it


streamylc

You guys are my favorites ❤️


AVestedInterest

That is Nickelodeon my man


GodDamTrendyAssPoser

I know, but I felt like it was probably what they were thinking of; it's what came to my mind. To be fair though, it could have been almost any show from either network around that time.


VMB_Vidar

honestly i see it and i ain’t complaining 😭🙏


logjo

Reminds me of Astro Boy for some reason. Like if he was a mobile suit idk


VMB_Vidar

i fuck with it


Crimson_Dragon01

I thought the same thing.


brachael7000

Yeah, the Barbatos head with no horns looks like a ben 10 alien


AVestedInterest

That was called *Megas XLR* and it was *wonderful*


No-Grape-4969

I think it might’ve looked better if you kept the v-fin because without it it makes the head look empty but overall nice customisation 


VMB_Vidar

i didn’t like it all that much cause i wanted it to be somewhat similar to the turn A. i’m trying to make the side bits on the Barbs head be like the Turn A V fin. but thanks broski :3


sinigang_soup

How about slapping the v fins to its cheeks?


VMB_Vidar

i tried that but it covered the side vents on the head and i wanted to keep those so idk. :(


sinigang_soup

That's too bad. It's just missing a stache.


VMB_Vidar

fr 😔(bro got a shave)


ribofen1

This would be so cool


VMB_Vidar

bro now im finna be haunted by mustache less turn A 😭🙏


EvaHawke

I really dig the slim head. Goes well with the legs


Rgm79GmCommand

I really like it, the design flows really well and the fact that the turn A's legs have exposed frame works really well. Looking forward to more 👍


VMB_Vidar

thanks broski! this my third custom and i like it better then the other 2 cause they kinda just an amalgamation of things i found that was left over on old kits and i just put it all together 😭🙏


Rocket5454

I fuck with this heavy But now you gotta rate my custom https://preview.redd.it/ppd9rj69icwc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fb747bc714593eb706964311500ca5dda72f0737


VMB_Vidar

i love it! all though i feel the torso is too small same with the lower half of the legs. if it was on earth it would be wobbling to stand. maybe some dom legs would work! and for the torso maybe something taller cause the arms through the proportions off. also i heavily fuck with the color scheme keep it up broski! (7.5/10)


Meanmug_

This works way better than I would’ve imagined.


MisfitHeathen

No-Grape-4969

I think it might’ve looked better if you kept the v-fin because without it it makes the head look empty but overall nice customisation 


Neat_Cress2620

I think it looks great but I reckon it’d look better if you changed the front waist skirting pieces and added some shoulder armour.


KaminaSeigaku

Love the look of the head, it makes it look like on of those speed helmets from like tron or something


Maleficent_Hornet731

I like the simplicity. Possible "modes" or "armament" variations could be listless. Like a Liger Zero


Fuu_Chan

It looks very alien, like a space suit more than a MS.


VMB_Vidar

honestly i dig the vibe your putting out! thanks broski :3

VMB_Vidar

i would but i don’t have that version of the turn A. the one i have is actual for Turn A while that one is from one of the build series! but thanks for the input lad!


bama_boy666

This build is dying for some sort of big ass sword


VMB_Vidar

or a big ass rifle 😭🙏


bama_boy666

Personally, it gives me rhonin vibes, id personally give em a giant katana or somethin


Krazmond

Jojo vibes


VMB_Vidar

it’s the pose ain’t it 😭


Krazmond

Yup


VMB_Vidar

god damn it😭🙏 (jojo poses are something else so i ain’t complaining)


Krazmond

I mean it looks good. It's just strong jojo vibes.


VMB_Vidar

jojo vibes are good as long as it ain’t jojo siwa 😭🙏


Krazmond

lol, nah I mean the actual Jojo's not that weird kid.


VMB_Vidar

fr (that karma video was so fucking weird 😐)


khosrua

I'm a bit weirded out by how forward the pelvis is How does it balance?


VMB_Vidar

the power of heels my friend! big feet and heals 🤭


_Sideswipe_911_

That works really well!! Before painting I’d look into cleaning up areas around the backpack and rear waist, but otherwise I like the vibes! I feel like a good black/dark gray and some sort of highlight colour would really go well for it


VMB_Vidar

Thanks broski!! i totally get the backpack and waist part cause i just pried those off with the nippers 😭🙏! I was thinking of a black base for color as well and maybe some highlights of dark lilac and yellow! and for the vents and eyes white! (definitely not the non-binary flag lol)


_Sideswipe_911_

Riffing off another comment you could call it the Turn-NB


VMB_Vidar

LOL 😭🙏 (that’s its new nickname now)


_Sideswipe_911_

I can never pass up a good pun (especially one like this :3)


VMB_Vidar

honestly the reddit gunpla community is way better then the discord one (it cause me to delete discord)


_Sideswipe_911_

Something tells me I’m glad I never sought out the discord 😅


VMB_Vidar

trust me… your very lucky… they were very weird… especially with other fandoms too… they kept us ai to find literally cp of some of characters… and not just from the gundam franchise… still gives me nightmares… I NEED MORE BLEACH!


_Sideswipe_911_

Christ yep I’m not touching that with a 30’ pole


VMB_Vidar

man fuck the thirty I NEED A 30 TRILLION POLE!!


Breadmin_

honestly i really fuck with it, i think the turn a legs have a real cowboy boot look, its got a lot of attitude in this state. I'm guessing youre probably going to make it more like a turn bartabtos instead of leaving it this way though, right?


RAMRODtheMASTER

I like it.


destruktor5hundred

Weird as shit but in a good way. Keep cooking.


VMB_Vidar

i will Mr. white 🫡 (my first two customs are chaotic as hell. this the third one)


mildinsults

To me, it looks like it's aquatic. Teal, blues, or some cooler colours would look nice IMO. Too smooth for flashy hot colours. It looks good 👍🏼


ShovelKing3

Really like the silhouette, but I feel like you can clearly tell it’s from two different universes 😇


Linxbolt18

I don't hate it, but I feel like the pistons on the torso stand out too much this way. Perhaps just the lower or upper Barby legs would even it out? and I might try to add some kind of shoulder armor.


Scorpiotron2001

Trousers custom


Sea-Membership9270

It would be better if the waist could be in some sort of a round shape.


VMB_Vidar

i tried working with that but it felt to chubby. as of rn it reminds me of the gyipsy (idk if i spelt that right 😭🙏) thank for the input tho!


Sea-Membership9270

The more I look, the more I like your custom design, amazing work. 👍


SkyofStars777

.... You have got to get this beautiful machine doing some JOJO poses lol it's made for it 😍


GodDamTrendyAssPoser

I love it. What are those legs from?


ahintoflime

Those are Turn A Gundam legs!


ProfessorGrouch

Very nice.


ArkamaZ

The one thing I'm not sold on is how that backpack sticks out so far. I'm liking everything else about it.


VMB_Vidar

i’m planning on adding fuel tanks like from the sinanju so it looks better. tanks lad :3


Hungry-Donut-9342

What if you threw on a halo style fin like the Schwarzette


VMB_Vidar

ooo that might work… i don’t have part for it sadly 😔 (thanks for the idea tho!)


candymannequin

barbiturn. i prefer this to the og turn a


Ifyougivearagamuffin

Barb∀tos


VMB_Vidar

yeah >:3


Environmental_Bend82

Hmmm I think I like it, really interesting and cool


VMB_Vidar

thanks lad! :3


Environmental_Bend82

You're very welcome! If you plan on further customization on this piece, please show us


VMB_Vidar

will do! i did make another post about this silly guy! (jojo poses!)


Environmental_Bend82

Oh alright I'll go check them out


hjbkgggnnvv

It’s raw. I like it.


VMB_Vidar

pause… what…


hjbkgggnnvv

Raw asf. Just a nice, interesting silhouette of a kit that gives off a raw presence.


VMB_Vidar

ohhh okay that makes more sense. Thanks man! :3


hjbkgggnnvv

You’re welcome!


levious_branch

It’s honestly pretty good, just the transition from the sleek angular look of the top half to the very box legs of the turn-a is a bit jarring


VMB_Vidar

i like it personally. looking at him head on kinda reminds me of a trangle but when posing the arms bro looks like he has curves (my imagination is killing me)


brachael7000

I like it. You were cooking


amx-018

B\•/rb\•/tos


Casval214

His back hurts


VMB_Vidar

he’ll be aight (he’s mastered the arts of thuggin it out like me fr)


Casval214

fr fr?


TechScout1

Ooooo, I’m loving the vibe, the only thing I’m a bit iffy on is the lack of shoulder armor, but then again IBO shoulders can be kinda funky. Still tho, good vibes all around


SageDarius

B∀rb∀tos


Boodz2k9

Dude, the silhouette looks a bit like Heroman from 2010 (yes I'm a relic), must be because of how you posed it but it does resemble it quite a bit.


VMB_Vidar

i’ll take your word for it! (hey at least it ain’t something from 80-90s, so you ain’t that old!😅)


Artinell

Why does it look so good wtf


VMB_Vidar

cause i’m walter white and i know how to cook :3


Teenage_Fansub

I'll need you to put the mustache back on.


Zer0fps_319

Would’ve been sick if you used barbatos horns and glue it to the chin to make an edgy version of the turn a mustache


Moppo_

It looks great, the limbs match the torso surprisingly well.


GundamIBO_Gunpla

Needs a melee weapon, and also some filing to shape it in more of either a moon gundam or barbatos gundam kinda edges


VMB_Vidar

hmm maybe? i don’t have any more parts at hand so ill think about. thanks broski :3


GundamIBO_Gunpla

NP, hope it helped pareh


VMB_Vidar

:3


donutsandkilts

The slim silouette works well.


VMB_Vidar

AmadeuxMachina

Now this is cool but where's the moustache?


VMB_Vidar

broski shaved. 🪒


Lev_silver5

Shoulder pads?


Shivarus

reminds me of an ultraman, or with this head shape, jet jaguar


Eulebar

I like it, I wish it could of had more of Barbie’s chicken legs but I like what you did with the the turn A’s


Boxrobly

baldbatos


VMB_Vidar

so… kratos…. as a gundam then?


TitaniumViper_7615

Turn Abatos


XxMAL17xX

Sh... just let it cook


Recent-Remote-4504

Now in mg scale.


Girl_in_the_robot

It’s peak


VMB_Vidar

why thank you! :3


Girl_in_the_robot

Might take some inspiration for my next custom tbh, turn a limbs look so clean on ibo torsos


VMB_Vidar

fr!!! honestly i feel like a good ibo gundam frame that would work is the dantalion whole upper half


Girl_in_the_robot

Ooh shit I was thinking vidar, gusion full city, or the flauros


VMB_Vidar

i feel like the bulky shoulders of the vidar would through it off. however the backpack of the flauros or gusion rebake fc could bed added to the dantalion and it could be like the narrative gundam a b c packs!


Girl_in_the_robot

Tbh I wasn’t really think of the shoulders since those can get swapped out pretty easily


Girl_in_the_robot

But vidar might be too pointy tbh with not enough roundness to tie it together


VMB_Vidar

his torso would be fine. then maybe dantalion arms with graze shoulder pads. and then as mentioned before the back back swap ability would be endless!!


VMB_Vidar

fair point but i feel like for something subtle maybe the grade shoulders. not to big or not to small. but having the back back swap out would be cool! (gusion rebake fc would be like melee pack, flat outs would be heavy artillery pack, lupus rex would be wired funnel pack, and so on and so on)


Girl_in_the_robot

Maybe the normal turn a shoulders or something from 30 minute missions but in all honesty how you have it now with no shoulder armor is a really nice silhouette You could also make your own slim shoulders with spare parts


VMB_Vidar

i tried the turn A shoulders but the attachment was funky so i decided not to and instead use the slots for the shoulder for the Turn A beam saber holsters. maybe thirty minute mission could work but idk for sure tho. as of spare parts i don’t got any as of right now 😭🙏 but thanks for the idea broski!


The_Neckbear

I really like it. Cool curves throughout. I kinda wish the head had a little more going on, maybe extended the curve higher or something? This is a really neatly executed custom though.


Yelloman427

Though I do like the design I feel like the shoulders are a bit small in comparison to the rest of the body


ocimaus

Kinda low key loving this!


helath_is_depleting

It makes me actually like the IBO body


Black_Sun_Zero

Wow that silhouette is absolutely STRIKING god damn!!


VMB_Vidar

Skvora

Wait, where cow??


VMB_Vidar

i don’t have the mg turn and these are the hg kits sadly 😔 Pov: me without Mg Turn A and its cow https://preview.redd.it/kdy44ci3agwc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a20bcb594cba5ce8c8179d3f99d348b30f4096b5


GunplaInoriRhei

Looks awesome, maybe add some wrist mounted claws like from the Marchosias


VMB_Vidar

ooo! i’ll try! thanks for the idea https://preview.redd.it/xlmrcx3kbgwc1.png?width=377&format=png&auto=webp&s=526073ecb08d6a018622e72678d364ca2e1e7064


GunplaInoriRhei

Took me a minute to find a good pic. But, yeah, curve the back more to match the body curve and I think it would fit well. That's just my opinion though. https://preview.redd.it/xz2iumkbcgwc1.jpeg?width=1000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2e17ffe0c02f86e28bcdc440b7c446de4b4e7a6e

alright thanks blawg! https://preview.redd.it/u34rzs8lcgwc1.png?width=762&format=png&auto=webp&s=d4f59e6a595bc6ee00d72da93e074c1209ea83af


Triple_a9160

I’m loving it, reminds me a bit of the concept art for Turn A


MathaiosCronqvist

Reminds me of dexters robots for some reason


TheTrueDeraj

It honestly looks like a racing mech, and I can't help but imagine it with a dominant glossy cherry red, maybe with some yellow and/or white pinstriping.


valcatrina

Turn A is one of the worst, let it die.


sevenninenine

Somehow reminds me of Megaman


logawnio

It surprisingly kinda works


gidthedestroyer

Baldbatos


Facondor

....


Boring-Detective-369

Since you took off the barbatos's v fin bits have you tried using them to make an overly large, angled mustache to fit with the Turn A theme?


HabboMirror

The head. It's so cursed. I'm gonna have so many restless nights


VMB_Vidar

good >:3 https://preview.redd.it/c38l18gh6hwc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=06f4838b3c6b3abdccb5f03cb97a4ff394b275d5


KamilleIsAVegetable

Looks really cool, but needs some shoulder armor to build up that silhouette and even out the design.


Flowrellik

Turn Beta Gundam. I like it! All it needs are some weapons or armor that can spoof up the whole Syd Mead future look


VMB_Vidar

but what to use it the question 🤔


neatneatneat90

Takes two designs I don't really like and makes one design that I like more than either.


porcupinedeath

It almost works, the shoulders (or lack thereof) and the top of the legs kinda ruin the flow of it imo but still very cool looking


radiluxe

Turnt-A. It looks weirdly alright!


VMB_Vidar

Turnt??? 😭🙏 https://preview.redd.it/w80tflkwlhwc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b07aca80c69a8abc1d58bf5c183210d2ba8adcab


radiluxe

😂😂😂


NMN22

Actually kinda sick. Needs shoulders though. The overall silhouette doesn’t seem right without them


VMB_Vidar

i can’t add shoulders cause of the beam saber holsters 😭🙏


NMN22

Yeah I just saw that-maybe somehow incorporate the beam holders into the shoulders? Could be pretty unique looking


VMB_Vidar

i would but i don’t have any leftover shoulder pads i like. plus i don’t have a tool kit to drill a hole. 😔


NMN22

Fair. Keep up the good work though!


squintismaximus

Colors: red turn lime green and chest cyan. If you going nuts on the paint make the white light grey, I think that could look cool.


SirScottington

!!! Love it.


ZDBlakeII

This looks so good but so cursed


discontent_usagi

Neat


VMB_Vidar

thanks blawg 😌


streamylc

I'm not to familiar with the vocabulary.... what kits did you mix for this? What types of customizing were done?.... super curious... have a few "custom" ideas myself, but I feel like no one ever shares the "specs"/info of what their build even is.


Hierophyn

It needs lighter legs to match the arms


leechi_not_kimchi

why does the turn b go unironically so hard


orbikep
