GOOD DAY my fine people! Finished watching witch of mercury and came across a gundam build video which inspired me to build my own. Had an amazing time building my first gundam and hopefully will get to more in the future. Hope you guys enjoy!

Nothing is blasphemy in the gunpla community. The main saying in gunpla is: "gunpla is freedom"

I can’t believe you only have 210 subs!
With such a high quality of content, you’ve earned yourself a sub!

Love your video of you sharing your first Gunpla kit, and you did an amazing job as your first! Don't feel afraid to pose your kit and show it off. You have put in a lot of time and labour of love into it. It deserves the attention in posing after the build!

Have shared your video with our community the BuildForce that's in South Africa!

Hope you want to build another kit and share your experience with another video! Stay awesome and Keep Building Joy!

This Full Mechanics is (to me) the best model kit out there of the Aerial Gundam. The pannel lining will improve over time and remember NOT to use marking sticers but waterslide decals instead. I don't know what this kit comes with, but waterslides is always the best way to go. Hope you enjoyed the process, looks amazing, keep building! I started out building a 00 kit and have ended with 120 (more or less) model kits on my shelves. Excuse my english!

It's nice that there are so many helpful videos to help people build Gundam Models. For a lot of old-skoolers like me, it was trial and error...and a LOT of wasted kits. lol. I hope you can build more. I love this hobby!

[paalamode]

Great video! Just a quick tip: for applying stickers or water decals, it's handy to have a pair of tweezers. And don't feel like you have to stick to the instructions. Most hobbyists like to add their own touch. As for panel lining with enamel paints on unpainted gunplas, it’s a lot safer to do it before assembling. Anyway, enjoy building!

[thc_freebaser]

I really recommend topcoating/priming before panel lining with enamel based stuff, it can hurt the plastic over time! Great job though!

[thesmartestidiot]

Try adding the top coat before panel lining. That panel liner can cause the plastic to crack.

I really loved this video editing was done well too! Welcome to the gunpla community btw I started building the hg gramps revive after finishing the first season of gwitch so this video really hit home.

[zacharydemko]

Just saw this video be suggested and even though I’m not into Gundam or anything but seeing how calming and enjoyable this video was it was more than enough to have me sub to you. Amazing work!

[JohnYannoulas]

I'm 3 model kits in now. MG Aerial was how it started for me as well. It was amazing to me that this tiny foot was something like 12 pieces to build.

[ponylucifel]

I love the edit and the way you just want to make the best out of the kit. This is what gunpla is about. You captured it really well. This is exactly the way I felt on my first kit. Thanks for taking me back to the good old days. I gotta get back to building again!

[KisekiFan]

I too just recently got into gunpla and it's really fun taking my time in building it. Lesson I learnt is that you take your time and don't use too much force cause some model plastics are really delicate, although I haven't broken or cracked any pieces yet I have made some stress marks on pieces due to me applying too much force when removing and attaching some pieces.
Also this is just a personal opinion but if you have a model with loads of decals Tey putting decals on the part you finished then move on to the next part, I find this helpful cause you are doing things in alternation.

[nicholasanthony]

Man that was exciting to watch can’t wait to see ur next vid!

[princeofdarkness]

I'm glad you enjoyed your first gundam build. With gunpla everything is optional and for your enjoyment. You can choose where to panel line, you can not panel line, you can paint it, you can cut it up and give it battle damage, you can weather it, you can "kit bash" where you mix parts from other kits, you can do heavy modifications, you can add panel lines with a scribing tool, you can just make it your own. Or you can just build the kit and put it on your shelf, it's up to you. I think it's fun trying all the different techniques to find what I like the most. You did great on your Aerial and I appreciate the production and effort you put into the video.

Def earned a sub from me. Welcome to the community! I’ve been getting back into Gunpla and model building in general lately. Right now I have a ZOIDS HMM Liger Zero, a HG LiveLance Heaven and a MG Stray Red Frame Kai. Seeing more gunpla CCs have been helping with reinvigorating my love for this hobby! Hoping for your success!

[adriflux]

Thanks for dedicating your time to enjoying this amazing hobby and getting it out there with this amazing video. This is quality content in every way. This is a great hobby of mine and it’s always great seeing one more person get into it. Oh and no, it is not blasphemy to do your own thing. It’s kind of the best part of gunpla. I don’t like using too many decals myself and I still love the finished models.

I always watch these vids again later and later and each time I gain more appreciation what a banger of a video to start YouTube with

[BlashyrkhPwns]

I'm late to the party but hey, welcome to the empty wallet club!
I hope you find building Gunpla an enjoyable experience. As soon as you dive deeper into this hobby you will improve the posing of your kits aswell, and believe me you will get more and more excited.
Really nice work on your Aerial, and also excellent quality of video editing.
Just subbed and hope to see more of your builds!
Cheers!

One of the most absolutely beautiful gundam I have out of my collection. Was kinda surprised you have such tools and even does panel lining for a first timer. But, you fr nailed it. Can't wait for more! (Psst, I recommend building barbatos.. ur gonna love it 🔥)
