This by miles, the best Gundam build I've ever witnessed. Thank you. It was an honor and also a heartbreak to watch and know I'll never have anything like this in my possession.
Rick, this is lovely and amazing work . I wish I had the time again to build Gundam again, because it was so fun and somehow brings back the joy and satisfaction. You are truly an inspiration to everyone who loves toys, gundams, and as well as builders :)
Bruh, watched the whole damn thing, and the static grass applicator is where my jaw hit the floor. LOL. BADASS! Awesome build. I never really watched or read Gundam very much, even though I was into anime, but I was into Evangelion, and I'm obsessed with robots in general. I want to take one of these massive kits and build a robot out of it with actual Dynamixel servos and a controller, so that it could change poses at the press of a button, walk around the room, etc. I used to have the Robotis Bioloid humanoid kit with AX-12 Dynamixel servos, and it was amazing.
@@rick_do_things If I can get a hold of another Bioloid kit, I will most certainly give it a shot. They're fairly expensive, but the one I had gotten, I got a hell of a deal on it. I can do the robotics side of things, building, programming, etc. but I haven't done very much kit bashing. Though, I think it's something I could get into. If I were to build one of these, factoring in the cost of a couple of 1/60 scale Gunpla and a Bioloid kit, it would likely cost around $2000-$2500 worth of components alone, and could very likely take me several months to build, especially having to modify the Gunpla kits to fit over the Bioloid frame. I'm going to start looking into it. If it turned out well, it's something that could very well sell for five times that amount, however. The Bioloid robot can be remote controlled with a Playstation 4 controller, so one could literally walk their 30cm tall robot around the room. It has 18 degrees of freedom, meaning, it moves at every joint you would expect it to, ankles, knees, hips, torso, shoulders, elbows, neck, and even multiple degrees at each joint. If I were to work on inverse kinematics for it, the robot could actually actively balance itself based on input from the servos in conjunction with the gyro and accelerometer in the controller, essentially like what Boston Dynamics robots do (try to keep their balance when kicked or forced off axis)
The weathering made the panels of Gundam look metal, like a Jaeger's. Though what really sells it is the amount effort done for the effect and how he made the set. Its soo good
Great job making a kit with LEDs and not having wires sticking around everywhere. I was thinking of finding some kind of magnetic connectors like on the Apple computers. Those could be well hidden.
One thing that would be cool is if (and this is just me spit ballin' here as an idea for future projects, or whatever) it would be possible to have two tiny magnets in one or each of the beam saber hilts and in each of the palms acting as contacts so you could wire the beam sabers for lighting. Having the saber blades light up would look AMAZING!
I wish I could do something like this, maybe one day. Truly amazing work, it looks incredible and your efforts truly paid off. Beautiful model, should sign this up in a competition or something.
Great work on this kit! I’ve been going back to your video as a reference for myself. Gonna try a similar diorama for mine. Have you done a tutorial on the chipping and weathering? I tried some but it didn’t come out as great as your effects.
You’re welcome brotha, yeah I think a video tutorial on that as well as a diorama & led tutorial would be great for your channel. I’ve searched around on RUclips for some tutorials but I like how you’ve done your formats on these videos. I watched another guy’s channel on here (otakubuilder) that my nephews and I also enjoy watching to get tips and inspiration. When this whole pandemic hit, I along with my brother and nephews (17 & 10) began building model kits to help get by. Since then my nephews love building and watching videos on here for tips. You know how difficult it is to get kids nowadays to have an interest in something that doesn’t include iphones and video games. 😂
So, this Gundam is a post-war model, not in combat use anymore? Your painting and detailing skills are amazing, all the aging and weathering is beautiful. If not in your display, it should be put on show in a museum or public showing. Excellent!!! 👍
Dude I only found this on my recommended area after watching multiple custom videos. Ur work looks awesome. You actually inspired me to actually paint when I said I wasnt going to so thank you Have you thought of doing a custom megasize chat zaku in the same way you the rx
OMG. It looks awesome. I was thinking of getting a mega size as it is cheaper than PG and I suspect the parts are bigger and thus easier to customise. Great video.
@@rick_do_things Is it? I thought it should be a oversize HG. Should be also easier for younger kids to learn how to build gunpla... I meant at basic level with the mega size as parts are bigger and thus should be easier to handle.
Awesome paint work, best painted piece ive seen. Dude could you help out by doing specific vid on that. Much appreciated!! Lookinv forward to seen more.
That’s so cool, you have to love that lawn, too. Makes you want to look around to ask the pilot why is his robot parked on the freshly cut lawn. “...No regard for lawn maintenance...”😜👍. Awesome job.
So I am a year behind on your channel. Im trying to get caught up and this is AMAZING. So motivational, not only to keep going in the videos you make, but also to try some things on my own. I have a Barbatos IM looking to do a Batman style to in the next few months, and now... NOW I need to try my hand at a diorama! SOOO FREAKING COOL!
wtf i just watch? this is masterpiece! every single details you made is crazy as hell those corosion and damaged detail is sick dude omg and the diorama as well, it's just perfect!!! you should go straight to Bandai and let them see your works, i believe they would just sign you in their company 100/100 perfect amazing work
Holy crap man. I'm hoping I can do a diorama like this one day. This was amazing to watch, and I love the music that went with it. Do you happen to know the last two tracks you used? I've heard the first one before.
First off - AMAZING work. Second, have you ever shown a doctor your nails and gotten your lungs checked out? This is what the medical field calls 'clubbing' and it can be a sign of a lung problem.
I can’t remember what color code I have used, but the brand is Mr. Color very good lacquer paint, also Tamiya is a very good brand, and also Gaia Notes.

Richárd Sógor thank you so much for you support! Maybe one day you can build one by yourself.
When you look at the video thumbnail and though you were looking into a 3D CGI you know that you're going into good stuff.
MTU thanks man! 😃
The painting, the way you making the Gundam looks so realistic and is satisfying to see how it turn out!
Thanks a lot!
@@rick_do_things Noo, thank you for all this content and the hardwork!
The custom aesthetics on the RX-78-2 are phenomenal to look at! It takes a lot of dedication to build something like this.
Almost a year! Thanks bro ☺️
もう素晴らしいの一言！
ガンダムの良さを理解してないとこんなクオリティの高さは表現出来ない！
どうもありがとうございます！ あなたは素晴らしい
This has to be the most dedication put into building a gundam i have ever seen. Grandaddy got treated right.
Angel Of Shadow thank you friend! 😊

Thanks a lot! This is way a made video of my build. Thanks again for support, it’s very important to me!
The weathering as if it has been there for a long time makes it rlly realistic!
Yeah! This is the basic idea

Thanks mate! I really happy you enjoy it! It's a simple effect and everyone can do the same.
I honestly thought this was just a 3D model cause I never seen so much love put into the first gundam I ever saw on tv as a kid
Thanks dude!
Great job making a kit with LEDs and not having wires sticking around everywhere. I was thinking of finding some kind of magnetic connectors like on the Apple computers. Those could be well hidden.
That's is a great idea... I've to think about it, thanks for suggestion!
The gundam on the gray background really gave it a Borderlands artsyle :D. Love the work and the diorama.
emc412 thank you 🙏
This is the best thing Ive ever seen. Id pay anything for this
Thanks a lot! You made my day
日本人ですが、なんか誇らしいです！
レベルが桁違い！
You're very proud!!!
thanks a lot bro!!!
This is an awesome build. It shows a lot of love and effort, truly amazing. Wow.
☺️ I’m really proud of that!

I will do on MG 🤫
Man the passion behind ur projects is so amazing.
Thanks bro!
ガンプラは大人になってからは全然つくったことないけどガンプラ動画はわりとみています
あなたのガンプラは私がみた「RX-78」の中では一番「カラーリング」と「汚し」が上手です！
どうもありがとう！！！
Awesome work!
Thank you for showing the order of the weathering effects, I’m going to try it out on a grunt suit!
Thanks for comment! Hope you have great time with your project!
When you don't have the pg, so you make one yourself and make it look better than the actual pg kit. This is awesome!
Thanks a lot! This is a great comment, I really appreciate it
Best Gundam RX-78-2 EVER I've seen!
Thank you 😊
Amazing. Just completely watched everything in awe with my mouth open. I appreciate all the dedication that went into this. You are an inspiration.
Thank you very much!
To be an inspiration is an honour
i really like how the weathering outlines a lot of the figure it just makes it pop
Thanks for your appreciation bro!!!
It makes my eyes pop too 😂👍🏻
This is a beautiful diorama, makes the gundam look like an old guardian standing watch over his city like those giant statues in japan
Nick Irmen you nailed it! Thanks bro
This is my favorite gundam already, you just made me happy seeing this finished like this. it is beautiful. It looks real. I love it.
Thanks dude 😊
Great video! Artistic virtuosity, aesthetic video production, and ambient music. Very pleasurable viewing experience.
Toby Chow thanks for feedback bro! ☺️
literaly drooling right now ...really wish i also have talent like thissssssssssssss
You can do it! Just practice!
the build was amazing then when it comes to diorama.. OMG superb!!
Thank you bro 🙏
Man wow....u deserve more than just likes! This is incredible!
Thanks a lot bro!!!
You put a lot of hard work and dedication into that gunpla.. keep doing awesome things like that..never give up!
Thanks a lot, really. I should not give up 🙏

If you stare long enough, you'll see it move by itself.
slightly 😉
Must be new type ability
Gundam moved by itself - Cool!
Little girl doll moved by itself - Yikes! 😂
😂😂😂
Lol
My word. This thing is enormous. amazing work
Thank you dude 😊
The weathering effect is soooo cool~
Thanks man! 💪
The paint job on the gundam model looks so realistic, amazing job

Bit late to the Gundam party only started collecting this year , I was blown away by the craftsmanship 👍 subscribe and like 😮
Thanks a lot! It’s never too late 🙃
Holy! That weathering is amazing! You are so skilled! Cool gunpla, keep up the good work!

But i’m not a genius, even you can make it!
OMG. It looks awesome. I was thinking of getting a mega size as it is cheaper than PG and I suspect the parts are bigger and thus easier to customise. Great video.
Kelvin Chew basically is an old HG but oversized! A bit annoying to remove all seam lines, but definitely worth the time.
