i used tamiya titanium gold instead of gold leave gold for the gold linings... at least it wont turn dull .. it doesnt look as majestic but it looks classy

coated my sinanju's red body with glossy monza red ... avoided the use of any metallic colours except silver on the thrusters tongue.gif

would love to document a WIP for low budget builders .. but i have no camera

but i used fingernail clippers for my kits doh.gif ... just be careful with the nippers cuz its curved

so far i've no problem using fingernail clippers infact when building sinanju, it was a great help as there are many round armour parts sweat.gif

spend hundreds of dollars on one kit but reluctant to put in rm30 for a cutter? penny wise pond foolish IMO

cant say much.. icon_rolleyes.gif my tools merely consist of a tiny nail clipper, a RM5 blade, some fingernail files and sandpaper, RM1.30 paint brushes, .. which all probably cost less than RM15.
have no problems with these not so prestigious tools.. however the costs for paint is way above RM50 sweat.gif (also for the satay sticks.. i actually went to eat satay for them, just to paint my gunpla doh.gif )
