i'd like to ask what are the steps to achieving such a finish for the red

yup yup, i know the big name of ICW
thanks thanks!

wann ask an alternative to compressor.. i heard people use hiblow 40 or co2 compressor for airbrushing.. currently
thinking of which is better.. both I have easy access since my house is very near to those aquarium shop.. may I know how
dangerous are those co2 tank if left unused in a room.

I am more interested on how he paint all those small parts? any sifu mind to share? masking? i mask my gundam, when i take off those masking tape,
it peel off the paint as well. and I am using tamiya masking tape

Do you let the paint cure for a day ? because while the paint is dry to touch, it not fully cure so it can easily peel off by the masking tape.

Gotten this already...

Thanks.

did you prime first? priming makes paint stick better also, less likely to get scratched or peeled..

Hi, I'm planning to make a fishing port diorama. Does anybody know where I can find this product in PJ/KL area:

Tamiya Ocean Effect Plate A (Item No. 89673)

Hi, I saw many people use photoshop or any photo editor software to change the color scheme for their model.
I also want to do the same thing but is there any good tutorial to achieve that? There are a lot of software but not much good tutorial showing how exactly it works.
There is one example in the spoiler, you can see the blue part was changed to green. Anyone mind to tell me how to do that?

My current work, working on 1/100 Nix Providence..
adding up shoulder joint and waist joint,
this is my 1st time modding articulation, still need a lot to learn

i've always wondered, how to u mold plastic together, like adding a ball joint onto what was original just a straight joint and not have it get damaged later or disassembled when posing or etc.? i mean how do u make sure the connection is solid.. just put cement? is that sufficient?

i put cement and after that cement cure, i put putty to secure the parts... huhuhu

i see will try.. cos i've tried mending some parts and i'm afraid they will not hold.. so i'm looking for better ways.. it's hard to find the actual process online or in videos

epoxy putty the best. when dry hard like rock.
bside epoxy putty can mold or sculpt ball joimment.
