hi guys, i've just gotten into assembling my gundam kits properly and trying to learn how to paint them aswell. So i've been doing some heavy research and spent some heavy cash on tools and kits these past 2 weeks. Some of these sites have helped alot in giving me an idea on what's involved and stuff so i thought i'd like to share it with u all...

http://members.lycos.co.uk/dougi3000/modeling.htm - basic info on correct assembly, masking and painting. good starting point.

http://www.fichtenfoo.com/02GiantRobots/02c-MGHowTo.html - detailed process of how to build an mg.

http://www.dannychoo.com/blogg_post/eng/213/ - another great detailed guide which incorparates shortcuts for busy people.

http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?...topic=12081&hl= - great guide on how this guy built his pg.

http://www.thiscowispurple.com/?page_id=235 - awesome info with video tutorials!!

http://www.scaleworkshop.com/workshop.htm - tons of videos but non gundam related, still helps to see how prof modelers do it.

http://j.parsons.edu/%7Evirapat/the_church...AM/index.html#8 - think it has everything u ever wanna ask bout modeling here.

http://s15.invisionfree.com/freedom_modeli...dex.php?act=idx - malaysian based forums with a lot of tips and work posted up

graffiti is at BTS on the 5th floor, in front of McD
yes they do sell cheap gundam sometimes..but not much choice.

and since you going to bts..go check time machine also at 7th floor..they got many choice of gundam there..and some of them sell really cheap compare to other toys shop.

Hi all,

I am planning to order some Mr. Top Coat (Flat/Matte finish) from http://www.plajapan.com/.

Do you think it would be too much problem at the kastam? I might order 10 canisters because I wanna coat my PG Strike Rouge. Will the shipment be allowed into malaysia? I have doubts...anyone tried before?

buying a paint always a problem when come to shipment..it depends on the shop who going to ship the paint want to do it or not, since its a flameable stuff. cause if you got caught you can end up going to court or jail.

for custom..for the total of your stuff are not more than RM500..then i dont think they will stop you especially when you use service like UPS or FEDEX. but now we are talking about paint and flameable stuff..very very risky..not only you can end up kena tax..but also maybe end up in court fight for you stuff..

that shop tah pau already long time ago..now already become foot massage shop. last time got alot train model shop..the mall, 1 utama, midvalley..but now i can even find one already..anyone know where else got this train model shop?

anyway..just want to ask you guys..which one comes first..applying decal first then paint/airbrush or airbrush and then only put the decal?

and about those transparent sticker..do you guys cut it into small size the only apply? cause sometimes..the sticker are more bigger than the surface where you want to stick them..make the edge stick out and looks ugly
