I wanna join the club too

Was wondering, is the plastics from Aoshima good? i found one guy selling kits ranging from new GT-R (preorder) to FXX in ZTH
So ordered my 1st kit from him a Top Secret S15 and Initial D FC3S, both also from Aoshima

Anxiously waiting now

I only found out that car kits r a lot more difficult to handle than gunpla, hahaha will try not to mess up with the kit

Oh thanks, was wondering wat else can i use other than using plastic cement?
Tried using Uhu but seems like it can't stick on the paint for the head lights of the FC (used gunpla technique-paint the back of the transparent plastic)...

Super glue is very dangerous...think will go and get plastic cement
Thanks

Very nice mustang and good looking engine
Wish m as good as u

Was only using industrial paint...got some clear color so will be keeping FC's original color

That S15, might wanna paint in black or silver coz i prefer black, white and silver for cars

Hmmm...noted
Was wondering, even if i used industrial paint without primer layer for some of my gundam kits (spray can), the paint lasted for more than 10 years and never even chipped did that to my 1st gundam kit

is it really necessary to use primer or depends on the brand of the paint?

oic, thanks for all the advice Sifu Eric and Sifu Cham

anchor brand huh?i used that for my gunpla, as for these car kits, bought some unknown brand with black color can design but as usual, will try it on the runners 1st, hahaha

oh ya, u guys used hobby masking tape for paintings izit?i dunno wat kinda masking tape to buy and m lazy to go to hobby stores

Oh okie, then will go to toycity in mines this weekend to get the stuffs
Thanks a lot

Coming soon...

S15 Top Secret but i paint it black coz like Black S15 better









I screwed up with FC3S' front bumper....need to get my hands on masking tape 1st before i can rectify the prob...



Apologize for d poor quality pics

Eh?what kinda effects?
d sandy looking paint was from a can spray brand called Dove

Oic but d silver one doesn't have that effect, only d black one does or maybe it's coz of d way i spray, dunno

Nope, din do that...if u notice the bonnet, d color is a bit of due to my thin layer or paint, can c d defect of the plastic

Oic, no wonder la even after painting also can c d original defect in d plastics....or is it coz of my paint is too thin?

I've tested d paint with d runners, seems okie

Yeah, it's d cheap brand coz that shop dun have any other brands, so juz bought it to test la..

Long time din update my progress on my 1st kit
Only managed to finish a bit yesterday
Did FD3S instead of finishing my S15 coz haven't bought red and blue paints
