Do you like Morishita as the current gunpla box artist or should someone else be given a crack at it?
>>
>>22242162
I like him. His box art gives a nice realistic feeling to it and fits well alongside irl scale models.
>>
Yeah sure I'd fap to that box art.

I remember on my way to vacation in the mountains, I visited a hobby story along the way on a whim, and saw this boxart. Bought it and assembled it while on vacation and that's how I got into mecha.
>>
>>22242162
I think whoever decided that the go-to look should be "washed-out watercolors" should be fired. The boxart looks nothing like the mech, and it looks nothing like the anime. There needs to be visual consistency between at least two of those if not all three.
>>
>>22242458
Mostly this, the ethereal watercolor look pairs better with high fantasy than angular robotics.
I like it better than the layout of >>22242444, but there's a happy medium in there somewhere.
>>
>>22242162
Where the fuck do I find just the art without the text?

>All of that pointless color trashing up the image
>Mechs barely visible behind all of it
Ew.
>>
>>22242629
If I wanted to look at a nice clean build I'd stare at the fucking model
>>
>>22242643
Unless the beams and lights come with the model, they shouldn't be front-and-center and shitting everything up. You can't even tell me what color the mechs are supposed to be because the image has so much shiny and distracting bullshit going on.
>>
>>22242676
It's p-bandai so there's little chance of people using the box art as their incentive to buy
>>
>>22242458
That's just his style.
>>
>>22242444
Hey does the exia mg hold up to today's gunplay standards?
>>
Reminder Morishita isn't just a boxart artist, he draws loads of their trading cards too, from Gundam War to whatever the latest iteration is.

It's still in my closet collecting dust but I remember that the arms were prone to falling off, and it was hard to keep the laser sword and shield attached. Since then I bought the real grade Kimaris Trooper and Grimgerde and remember they are much sturdier, don't recall having an issue with those.

Whats this red gunk
>>
>>22242885
iirc the limbs aren't up to snuff, it could use a 2.0 but I think there's 3rd party metal parts to keep it intact too.
>>
>>22256796
Mould maybe? See if it cleans off. I built one about a year ago and it most certainly did not have that.

Yeah his box arts are nice, but i wouldn't mind if Bandai hire other guys more often. I would love to have an Ebikawa box art for modelkits but unfortunately he is too premium and only hired for Bluray boxes.
>>
>>22260167
He's also busy designing new machines.

I think his art itself is good, but agree with some other anons that I don't think watercolors really work for mecha.

it's the rubber deteriorating. Bandai tried to fix this with using the vinyl style covers on the Thunderbolt kits, but unfortunately they look bad.
