Hot damn! Great job with the plating.
On a side note... your reply presumably includes an imbedded image. I haven't used kbin in months, but when I last checked the uploaded in-line pictures only display on kbin, and not lemmy. If you edit the comment and add this to your reply:
This should render it in-line for both kbin and lemmy. It's a pita, and part of why I switched.
Edit: just checked your home instance and that's indeed what happened. I updated the code block to include your url.
Thanks for the heads-up on the embedded images, that is indeed a PITA. I've stuck with kbin/mbin because I browse on desktop and am not a fan of Lemmy's UI. Maybe I'll take a look at it again at some point.
I agree, the bins look so much better out of the box. The default lemmy interface is just... no. It's why when I took the plunge post-rexodus I went with kbin.social. But that went pear-shaped, so I started shopping around. I liked the look and feel of Voyager, which an instance can implement as an optional front end in addition to having web app and standalone app options on mobile. So I found a home instance on lemmy and haven't really looked back.
Now that I can see the action pic... I am in love with the color depth. Which sounds crazy since it's essentially grayscale but everything is crisp and complimentary. Really good job.
I wish I could take credit for the paint job, but all I did was some minor touch-ups after snipping off the runners. I guess I should've been a little more clear in the title. Here's the kit: https://p-bandai.com/us/item/N2588123001002
