Now that this place is unlocked, I might as well post my gunpla here like I intended to.
I've finished panel lining that EG Nu Gundam I posted in /animu/'s share thread a couple months ago. It still needs a dusting and a top coat, but looks decent-ish as is. I also have a HGAW GX-9900 and EG RX-78-2 laying around, both partially lined and the latter in dire need of some gun metal for the beam rifle, and two unassembled gunpla that I'll get to when these are in better shape.

A lot of that is just the EG Nu Gundam being a really solid kit. Pic related is how it looked just after assembly back in December. Even without panel lining, it's a handsome, well thought-out kit that stays reasonably close to the original design.
The biggest downside isn't the appearance, but the joints. They're the same plastic as everything else instead of polycaps, so if you pose this thing too much, you'll apparently wear its balljoints down faster than you would a regular HG gunpla's. It's something to keep in mind if you're the type to go nuts with posing, but I haven't bumped into that yet myself.

Just on the border of your waking mind
There lies another time
Where darkness and light are one
And as you tread the halls of sanity
You feel so glad to be
Unable to go beyond
I have a message from another time

Nice! I like the CSS, btw.

@BO
You'll want to uncheck the last two tick boxes under your Manage > Settings > General tab; this enables listing your board both in the Trashchan Overboard, as well as on the Webring. Cheers.

Beat me to it, kek. Thanks to you lads for offering to host this place: I'm really glad /mecha/ gets to have a second chance.
The one change I've made to the rules so far was to remove the one about sticking to thread topics. I might try to reword it in the future, but staying on-topic isn't something I want to be too anal about, as being too rigid about that tends to stifle good conversation.

The site rules are general. Beyond that, just as you yourself see fit!

Totally understand.

What was the outcome of that competition again? I have a vague memory of it being rigged in the American chicken walker's favour and them still doing poorly.

That's disappointing. Has it to do with Tomino's autism?

I am sorry to write something like this in a somewhat sister board, but we are actively trying to bring the 4chan /m/ refugees in there:

Enjoying the show, but... Char piloting the Gundam feels... dirty. Wrong.

And who was the Guncannon pilot? Was it Ryu? Amuro? Who? It's strange how deliberately they avoided telling us the fate of the White Base crew. The only one with a face who I remember dying was Captain Paolo.

There are no dead bodies around, so most civilians probably had already evacuated. Perhaps it was a no name soldier.

I'm really hoping we see something of them. There's always been a lot of focus on Char, but people care about the White Base crew just as much

I get enough of just seeing humanoid robots and just prefer the overall wild aesthetics of animal shaped mechs.
One of the things that make Zoids unique is that it is one of the few types of Mecha in fiction that happen to be lifeforms, but with the only thing unique to them is that they can reproduce and are natural creatures that evolved on their world.
Not all Zoids are built from the ground up, some of them were caught in the wild, tamed and fitted with cockpits for the pilots.
Another thing is that there are also feral Zoids that were once piloted by humans but then escaped or released living freely in the wild.
Zoids are native to the Planet Zi, a world that is much like Earth but with two moons. Zi was originally populated by an extinct human-like race called the Zoidians which were the ones that tamed and rode the Zoids before humanity colonized their world. The Zoidians may have died out but they may have mixed their bloodlines into the human population.
"Fiona" Elisi Linette, an Ancient Zoidian pure blood was the last of her kind. Juno Hera is a human of Zoidian decent.
The Organoids are among my personal favorites. They are small Zoids that can fuse into the cores of large Zoids and give them ultimate power. Zeke, a little dinosaur fuses with Shield Liger and helped it evolve into the first ever Blade Liger. Liger Zero has an organoid but permanently fused to its core unlike the latter that can diffuse.
Organoids have a special connection with Zoidians as demonstra

I remember enjoying New Century first, then seeing Chaotic Century and loving that too. But on rewatch some years ago I realized New Century was shit and I dropped it. I fucking love the dual audio Chaotic Century though. Watching it has made me want to build some model zoids again also.

Chaotic Century was definitely the superior series with a good cast of characters and a nice storyline.
New Century is just "Tournament Arc" the anime.

Is it at least a good tournament arc?
Rewatching the original now. Comfy.
