Myself and iShop2Go will judge the best UC0079 Diorama entry we get. We want your entries portraying dynamic movement, model painting skill for the kit and also very important is showing off the work put into the background / landscape/ surroundings. One or more Bandai kit must be used. No computer graphics enhanced imagery. As part of your entry, you must show your work in progress how you made it. The quality of your presentation will also count. All entries must be posted as a video response via this link and must be in before Feb 28th 2010 so you have the whole holiday season to work on your diorama skills and finish your projects. We will pick the winner and announce it shortly after the deadline.
*As before, I can't promise that these competitions will continue. It all depends on the kind of response we get... You should treat this as the last time we ever do a competition.

One thing I thought of. Gumdam UC0079...First Gundam show, or the year in the series of shows? This would open up 8th MS team, and 0080 (since it technically took place during 0079). I just wanted to throw the question out there for clarity's sake.
ReplyDeleteThis is why I decided to post this 1st before making the video announcement...
ReplyDeleteThe MS kits used for Diorama entries are required to have appeared on screen in that 1st Gundam Anime series.
Would the GM 2.0 Qualify if I did it with th Jack The Halloween stickers? As far as I know that is my only kit from 0079 besides some HGUC kits.
ReplyDeleteUsing units listed in the 0079 (anime) setion of MAHQ is fine right? Becase I honestly don't remember which units appeared in the series...^^;
ReplyDelete@BTW Yes the GM ver2.0 is fine
ReplyDelete@Kurai Seigi : you got link for that? Better ask 1st before you start work on your Dio...
ReplyDeleteHemmm... Another compo. Should i enter? I don't have any original series kit... Well i guess i'd better buy one.. Soon.. Hahaha... Mr toys... Any recomended kit if i may asked?
ReplyDeletehttp://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/msgundam/type61.htm this and the Zaku II (which i'm more than positive that it appeared on screen)

ReplyDeletehey if anyone can help i dont know thematerials for making a diorama for instance that whit putty stuff
ReplyDeletehey i will make one if possible on thegold rx 78-2
ReplyDeleteGreetings 2old4toys! I was just wondering if there were any material/size restrictions for this competition. Thanks a bunch and looking forward to this!
ReplyDelete@Deathscythehell85 Entries must be via video response only.
ReplyDelete@Kurai Seigi: yesh it looks just like a tank. NP
ReplyDelete@Bryan6795 no size restrictions. You doing a 1/1 scale diorama then?
ReplyDeleteMust I do a scene that is in the series?
ReplyDeletesad. i only have msia. and i was going to build a good diorama with them too. oh well....
ReplyDelete@2Young4War does not have to be. Just use MS and MA that are from the show and look like they are from the series. I just chatted to iShop and they are fine if you mod kits to look like it is from the 1st series too!
ReplyDeleteCan we use mobile suit variations? or is it strictly as seen on tv mobile suits. For example i want to use my MG Ball but it is the igloo version. is that acceptable?
