gaiachronicler - haha well actualy start as basic touch up and simple panelling is the best method of all. no need go to that advance unless you really cherish what you buy and collect. well i like to show my zeta you guys but better u can surf at the gallery as here mostly for info then showing my stuff here but i think during my zeta build i still an amateur/noob skill. my latest sazabi is more better than my zeta.



old GFF has very limited movement and mostly static pose only since the material wasn't entirely plastic (some diecast and ABS plastic composite) made it very loose after few attactment or posing. but i know mostly the arms mostly static pose.

well i recommend you buy the newer version of GFFN it give a great posable range as well as it more durable than the old one.

GFF zeta was nice but i think you try to wait for the GFFN version i'm sure they will come out sooner or later. the old one I saw the review got lot of problem with the loosen part and posting. but that up to you since GFF zeta plus (5,500yen) was very expensive it self compare to other GFF series.

for me if can save $$ i'll fork out the metal composite series better since it has full articulation from MG + way more stable than old GFF

here my GFF old picture with EX-S gundam as well as macross VF25 (all of this is 1/100 scale)



and my moded zeta plus wave raider.

I can say if not too picky the kit is very well done and the painting i see is very nice and accurate, those partially unpainted was the white part but i think is meant to be this way since this kit was transformable and if they fully painted the kit sure will be problem of paint chip later.

well for bandai product we can't predict one because mostly they comeout as a surprize one. their marketing strategy was very good for milking people like us.i can say MSV robot damashii is the best for toy like kits. and the price is just right for those who love straight out from the box and ready to play with it. other than that i think GFFN series may take awhile to build it since those design and kits are more complicated than older GFF itself.

no problem

I think for durability you can say HCM Pro since it meant for playing but however even every kit you play sure bound to have fading color and scratches. Somehow if you just for display GFFN is well recommended as it has detail better than HCM PRO.

that is not gundam is GUNDOOM but i also interested on it. just dunno how to get it from oversea only.

it was resin from neograde 1/144 scale but seem it been be copy and put in to injection base by some china company brand.

I got my done it long time ago along with my sazabi 1/144 mod

That is normal for any people who snapfit their kits. The slower the better since you can also fix the nub mark at the same time. For me it nearly took a month or 2 just to fully clean the part from nub mark and snapfit the part. and took 2 to 3 month more if got modification and another 1 month for painting. so far add up about roughly around 4 to 5 month at least to finish a kit.

congratz for finishing the unicorn MyKy44. look nice I wonder how will u tackle the need mod problem

well I'm not a fan of musa series as this is really not my kinda cup of tea but there always a choice you can just spray black for entire part with out striping the gold coat off and painted the gold that u desire without much hazel.

simple and easy.

haha well u can't avoid scratch if you play alot with your kit but however you can try use top coat it to make it more solid as it will give more protection for your gold and also ur paint scratch.

zieraq - haha i think best not to give the paint thick otherwise thick paint can cause paint chiping even more due to it tighten your articulation.
