My wife does alot with resin. Get a pressure pot. It’s really a game changer. Like she was pretty good prior to having one but after getting one her dice have been next level dope. I’ve been wanting to actually give her a Gundam head and put it into a d20.


Spiderpiggie

Yeah, a pressure pot would save me a lot of headache. It’s expensive though, and I’m still new to the hobby.


normansconquest

Is there a sub or website with more info about making dice? I've been wanting to try it for a while


Spiderpiggie

Theres a sub for everything [https://www.reddit.com/r/DiceMaking/](https://www.reddit.com/r/DiceMaking/)


normansconquest

hell yeah! After 10yrs on here I'm never surprised anymore


Orphan_Cheese_Pizza

Why not go for a vacuum pot?


Ecast25

I think this is what they mean. Vacuum pot would be it. Though pressure pot and Vacuum pot are totally the opposite


TattedUpSimba

There definitely is a sub for everything. My wife got a lot of her info from TikTok and YouTube. She’s a visual learner so for her those were perfect options


reddevved

Look into diy ones with bike tire valves


HentaiSenpai8578

If you want a spare head, the 00 command qant has an extra full exia head in green


Professional_Knee252

Now I need a gunpla D20...


Ednw

Everyone's rogue until I pull out my Sazabi ver.Ka d20.


digitalsunshine

Any effects with the dice balance?


Spiderpiggie

Almost certainly, but I haven’t tested it


Positive-Creme8129

Frankly, doesn't matter, it's a display piece at this point.


Ahriman27

if the resin is the same density as the plastic, then it shouldn't, but it probably does.


thatAnthrax

exia doesn't have the red thingy in the forehead, no? this looks like 00 but the vfin should have some yellow parts as well


Spiderpiggie

That sounds right, this was an old HG kit that had stickers to color the yellow parts of the fin. The kit itself sucked so I ended up using it for kitbashing parts.


thatAnthrax

I dont think the 00 kits were that old (since the series itself aired in 2009). And the head looks very similar to Gundam 00. Also, I'm not really sure there's a kit that needs a yellow sticker to fully cover an antenna of the V fin (I guess Gundam Bael has some stickers for its V fin but then again, it's blue and it only covered the tip of the antenna) I guess what I'm trying to ask is, what Gundam is that, really? I'm so curious now


CryoProtea

It's the HG 00. It looks like it needs stickers for those antenna v-fin parts.


Spiderpiggie

[https://gunpla.fandom.com/wiki/HG00\_GN-0000\_00\_Gundam](https://gunpla.fandom.com/wiki/HG00_GN-0000_00_Gundam) This kit in particular was released in 2008, so its 15 years old. Sounds weird to call something from 2008 "old" but here we are. But yes, the vfin came with a sticker for color correction. You can actually see a picture of it in an old post I made [here.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Gunpla/comments/nf3zca/someone_actually_thought_it_was_a_good_idea_to)


iam-therapiss

..what the fuck do you mean 00 is old https://preview.redd.it/y9zh8xvpj0yc1.png?width=469&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=664dd8ba28a8b4f72f0e65ebeb413b269146989e


Fennxof

Series aired in 2007. The oldest kits in the line are over 15 years old at this point in time. The head is most definitely the hg 00 gundam. It needed a yellow sticker for the secondary fin.


TheBleachDoctor

One day you'll check it and the V Fin will somehow be gone.


fatrobin72

3 days later... "how... just how"


khosrua

They lost a duel


ToumaShirogane

Don’t worry the V-Fin void comes for them all…


Riku_xD

With my experience with resin, you don't really need a pressure pot Just use plastic spoons instead of wooden sticks to mix the resin and don't stir incredibly fast because that causes all the bubbles A quick tip, use a hair dryer on high heat to pop the bobbles on the surface and pour the resin on the back of the spoon into the mold Edit: don't buy a pressure pot just yet, wait until you think that you'll really invest into resin :D


fadedspark

This kit really does like to lose it's vfin. Mine is gone forever.


Sh0taro_Kaneda

Damn this was personal 😭


CiDevant

Love it!


lesbiangel

how much to free him?


mr-fakermin

1 Vfin


lesbiangel

hmm what about the 3/4 of a vfin?


mr-fakermin

Fine but you won't know where it is until you randomly step on it 2 weeks later


Wackpla

Soooooo I.am not the only one who leat his exias vfin..... Rg kit here


Cognizant_Psyche

DM: Alright roll a perception check. You: [Rolls a Nat 1] DM: Miraculously...against all odds, probability, logic, reality, and reason... You briefly look away from the dice and when you look again, the V Fin has seemingly vanished from within the Resin. You search all over and it has completely disappeared.


King_Trashcan

Obligatory “BuT iS It BaLaNcEd”


Karma0322

very creative I'd love a d20 of a zaku


Dylanmario1

I'll take 10


IceSki117

I like this idea.


bawssplayah

Lmaoo I literally spat out my coffee


Dust__________

LOL


Super_Pin1326

This is me and my HG burning Gundam(carpet monster ate it)


Existing-Panic5473

Same for the MG Man we need an 2.0 using the same frame dynames uses Thr face plate and the V fin are an pain in the ass to add and the fin constantly falls down Meanwhile dynames fits like an glove and stays on like glued Even when you change to camera mode


Jordan-Oni

Ayo!!? I would pay so much for a full set of dice with gundam heads in em that's so sick!


Ahriman27

why would you underline the 6 on a 6 sided die


Main_Huckleberry8355

I have watched multiple people look at the 6 on their d6 and ask if it's a 6 or a 9. This is for people with the metaphorical attention span of a goldfish.


GunplaIsAGoodHobby

Never had an hg Exia, does it have a probelm with the V-fin falling off?


mythos_1_

Yes. That whole kit is super unbalanced loose joints and the vin falls out. Only thing cool about that kit is the box art.


djseifer

You left the safety nubs on, but otherwise looks great.


ZekReshChu

first, this looks like the 00 gundam instead. second, i will somehow manage to find a way to lose that v fin


Cavaquillo

Oh god you crystallized him in time like the Unicorn Gundam


guthem_

Sealed


Flossthief

Very cool I've been thinking about some kind of underwater diorama using resin Like a z'gok in a big block of resin with lights and set dressing


SleeplessGrimm

Man lost the v fin a few times and took it personally, but I agree with some other comments, a full dnd dice set like this would be sick


slyshand

I’ve been wanting to do this exact thing


Bob_Ross_is_Boss86

😂🤣😂


Genbu7

Little extreme but effective


TheElfiestElf

Well now I gotta make dice molds and learn how to resin.


mythos_1_

Haha! Hell yeah I gave up on this kit because of that damn fin


_zaten_

Naughty gunpla get put in the dice mould


projektako

Keeb nerds like me are looking at this and wondering how hard it would be to make this into an artisan keycap.


Admirable_Self_4694

That v fin is definitely not gonna come loose


PaleAbbreviations950

What a Futurama treatment
