incredible job, mate. left mine grey and I'm super jealous of your paintjob haha. cheers
+anddudewaslike thanks and try just a coat of silver. Easy and looks great over grey
Looks great man. I used both the kit instructions and the 3D model of REX in the PS2 Document of MGS2 as a guide. Respect to anyone paints these- even if you feel you didn't do a good job 'cause a lot of people didn't even try. Really helps if you have model building experience.
I never got around to getting more of those Kotobukiya chain bases as I wanted to make a nice diorama because those figures just beg to be in one.
Great looking paint work HB. 👍👍 way up.
thanks!
This absolutely amazing. The attention to detail is unbelievable. When you show off the cockpit and underside of Rex's head, it has a very comic book/ps1 game aesthetic because of the emphasis on lines around the detailing which , as you point out, really makes it pop.
I have a Black edition Rex that I want to paint. I probably won't go into such insane detail with the camouflage as you did, but the black lines to emphasise the detailing looks awesome and I deffo want to try that!
+James Dobson If it's all black I might try finding a gray marker pen or even white for the lines since the black on black might not show up well across the room. I'm glad I spent so much time on him and I'd love to see yours when you're finished as well!
Looks amazing, I admire your dedication to the small details.
+TheGasMaster4381 thanks!
Thank you for that very detailed review.
Appreciate it.
+ArTwo DeeTwo certainly!
Looks like a real beauty. Has a really good shine to it as well.
The line-work actually looks awesome! It's really bold and actually resembles the art used in the series, at least to me. It looks like it could have been a picture in the instruction manual! Great great job here Alex, this was just beautiful looking.
+ClefairyPuff That's really nice to say! Thank you!
Just as a tip. Instead of using micron pens you can use a black wash or ink to fill in the grooves and make it pop then dry the panels to clean it up. You could have washed it in about 5 minutes. But great job. I may get one of these and paint him up.
+Violent Nature they weren't all grooves. If you want the details you have to draw it
Wow, you did a really good job giving him that bare metal look.
+Kyle Morgan thanks :)
I might paint mine in dark green or Navy blue with all kinds of warning labels and other decals like if it was factory new, or a test model
Might wanna paint with a toothpick or something to get that small
that looks amazing! i just ordered one. it'll be my first time painting a model..hope i don't mess up too bad lol
Thanks and good luck!
Grabbing the re release. He's paid for just held in Japan because of the Japan post suspension due to the war in Ukraine.
Very cool to see a fully painted one. Personal opinion, paint before assembly or after? From your experience. I'm terrified as I've never painted a movable model before. Warhammer etc sure but not a full on mech. But he looks so bland not painted ☹️
I'd say paint after. You can still partially disassemble it to make it easy but getting paint inside joints will cause them to no longer be sized correctly. Gotta be careful
@@HamsterBomb amazing cheers dude! Yours looks ace, definitely gonna have a go at painting it at least. As terrifying as it seems! 😂
I’m sorry if you’ve answered this already and I didn’t see, but what kinda of brushes do you use. I’ve never painted a kit before but I’m very tempted to try with this cause of how great yours looks
I just used the cheap testors ones. the bristles fray out in a way that looks like brushed metal
Man thats looks sick, question, did you use base water colors or oil? Thanks a lot
I used testors paints
Thanks bro
Looks great! Just got into this series
+SkrubFilms thanks! You're in for a treat
howd you do the camo patterns? did you use masking tape?
+Bintang an itybitty brush
HamsterBomb wow, damn fine job my man. It looks very nice and angular, is it just as straight upclose or a bit more wobly ? I want to do something similar as you did, so im trying to figure out how to do camo
Masking tape is your best bet. It would get you clean angles
Looks amazing! I'm a massive MGS fan and I love art. Soon as I seen the Rex model I was thinking of taking up model building as a hobby. Any tips? Thanks
+The ChizzBomb once you build it don't be afraid to put paint on it. That was my hurdle. Good luck!
Hi. I would like to ask you one or two questions regarding your model of Rex here, but first of all I would like to say WOW! You've done him serious justice.
1) roughly what is his overall height in the pose you have him shown here? got to check out his dimensions for my display case.
2) Did you use metallic paibts to get the silver effect on the parts of his body?
3) What is the width and depth of his stand/platform he's on?
I'm considering getting him imported from Japan to add to ny collection.
Thanks in advance.
+John Stammers Thanks! 1. About 10 inches tall. 2. Yes brushed on. 3. It's a default base. About 7 by 7.
HamsterBomb Thanks for the help. I've ordered both Rex and Ray from Japan. They don't sell them where I live :(
Can't wait to add them to my collection of models/figures.
Will be getting some paints from a hobby shop. Noticed what you said about the white enamel helping stabilise the joints so I'll be going by that advice. The other colours are acrylic water based. This will actually be my first time painting my own models, fingers crossed I don't mess them up lol.
Once again he looks fantastic here and thanks for sharing.
I'm definitely getting this figure! Thanks for making this, you were my deciding factor in getting it. If you can, can you tell me what colors you used, or which company rather. I'm making my own design but those colors really go together.
+TMG honestly I just bought some testors model paints. They're small bottles you can get at any hobby store
Ok so the kit just arrived (Amazon 2 day shipping). Can you just detail the process of painting it. All I need is just an outline of how to actually start. All I can find online are people who just used spray paint. Do you take the figure apart or paint it when finished? Thanks for helping me decide, And thanks for being a great youtuber.
+TMG yea I generally do chunks at a time based on color. Then paint patterns. Then ink in lines. Watch the video again I explain it all
+TMG I also have one of RAY that may go into more detail on the process
I've seen pretty much all of your mgs videos. I was just marvelling at how awesome your paintjob is. Thanks for the help, I will definitely send you a picture when I'm done.
Hi! Just putting my kit together. It's the absolute first time i do something like this, but I'm willing to try the camo painting.. is it that hard? Any suggestions? Thank you
Honestly it wasn't so bad. Do the silver coat first, then find the best shots online to reference. Use tiny brushes to freehand the shapes, then when you're done use a fine tip black marker to define the line work. Good luck!
I'm soon getting a REX model as well. But i was wondering if you had painted any of the inside parts {like parts for the articulation and others} while you were painting it? If you remember of course.
+FARAH MASSOU you can reach those after he's assembled within reason
I'm curious how you did the paint job since it wasn't a solid color. Did you spray it with the brown (sorry colorblind, just guessing) as a base, and then mask off the parts you want to show as camo, and then spray everything with silver?
+Stanley Chen silver painted first then painted extras on top. All with brushes
HamsterBomb ah, so you must've did a lot of masking of the silver, either that or you held the airbrush up pretty close to the piece so it doesn't get all over
Is the white also testors paint? And how did you get it so solid?
Yes it was. For some reason I've found the glass jars are a lot more watery than the black plastic sets. That was the white I used. Same brand but different mix I guess.
So would it be better to paint it first before I build it? Because I always wanted to build one of these and this would be my first time building one of these if you could tell me what tools I need to build this thanks man
I always recommend building snap fit kits like this and gunpla first than painting it later. Since it's snap fit you can pull the subassemblies apart easily and see exactly how you want to paint it.
Nice but I have Parkison
nice
Hello what material you used to painted? And colors because i want paint it mine to.
I just grabbed random testors paints and followed the guide in the book
Was the base you used in the video a part of the kit or it is from somewhere elses?
The grey base comes with the kit.
Did you get decals with this one? I got black version and it came with lots of decals from all the games.
Nope
HamsterBomb Must've just been the Black Version then. It came with the symbols from Rising and all kinds of warning lettering etc.
how did you get these straight line with the green?? what did you use??
Just used my hands
did you need to prime it?
+The Best Green Lantern no but with the white I probably should have it was kinda runny
How did you get that?
+geomar tablang it's a model I built check the other video
