i bought a mg zeta plus a1 the other day, thinking it's about time i should build one myself. after seeing all the pics posted, it kinda puts me off knowing that i don't have all the tools that would make the kit look good. all i have is a borrowed toolkit (cutter, knife, etc), and a used gundam marker. i have a fg gundam which i assembled quite some time ago, it looked pretty awful... that's why i bought the mg, thinking it would look good just like in the pic =.="

now that i know that there are quite a no. of tools involved, can someone actually list out the price (and where to get em) for the things you've used when modelling your kit?

Depends on how much skill you have, and how much effort you want to put it.

For a straight assembly, a decent hobby knife, sandpaper, gundam panel line marker + eraser will suffice. Gundam markers are for touching up the details but you're better off using a thin brush+paint for that purpose.

Read on regarding tools for basic modelling.
Advanced skills can be found in hobby magazines and also places like Zero G forum and our own modelling technique thread that's lying somewhere in the forum

basically i have zero skills in modelling... i think i'll get another fg to test it out first... can i know where you guys get your airbrush, compressor, epoxy putties, coats, etc and how much do they cost?

After looking at the trailers and other promo of the Gundam Unicorn.... i personally think that Rezel is more cooler than Unicorn.

too bad no transformation gimmick i mean model. ova i know sure got

MG GN-X review on Youtube!!!!

Looks awesome but not practical. Why carry so many weapons when you only have two hands to wield them? And a direct hit from the back to the FA Unicorn would just detonate all the rockets he's carrying behind him and kill it in one shot.

Actually, most MG kits carry a picture of the straight assembled version with decals applied without any painting whatsoever. Look out for it.

All the experts can be found here: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/703675

But, i'd say that an FG is harder to paint and mod as the size is small and there's a lot of work to be done. A 1/144 HG or a 1/100 NG would be a better choice.

Yes, i think so too.

i might consider the FA unicorn. spells awsm in my dictionary.

^
When I first saw FA Unicorn on dengeki hobby (or was it hobby japan ) i tot bandai releasing new variation for Unicorn
But too bad it's just a work of a pro-modeler ... lets hope bandai do release a FA Unicorn. Looking forward to the Unicorn OVA ver. SP

Hope bandai release this too


By the way, anybody interested in the new kotobukiya border break kits? They look quite awsm

on the cover I see Nebula Blitz and Blue Frame

+1

omg....omg.... those modded gundams are..... awesome...
i just went like 'omg.... so nice.... so nice.... very nice....' when looking at the pics..

oh btw, wat turn A syndrome? i mmg confirm buying liao wan

looking at MG Red Frame's re-design...i have a feeling no hope for astray delta liao. the backpack tactical arms redesign is answer to those wanting astray delta i think.

I also see dreadnought along the wordings from gundam seed x astray.Nah cant be horn looks like blitz but the poking stuff coming out doesnt look like its nebula form. anyway i ll just wait until all the astray MG line cards being laid by bandai only i buy.

That one not Blue Frame?

Blue Frame , Nebula Blitz and another MS....what is that MS behind Red Frame? Another Blitz ???

I'm more interested in Robot Damashii becoz of it's articulation. To me, i think GFF have very limited articulation.
By the way, just wanna ask everybody where do you guys get the chance to watch Gundam OO, Gundam Seed Astray & all those stuff?

You mean anime or novel? If manga and novel, mostly only chinese Taiwan website can see. Dunno you interest or not. I have some resource.
