I cut it off from the bunch using normal scissors and cut off the leftover plastics( OMFG the gurus here gonna LOL hard at me) using a nailclipper.
last time i also use nailclippers to cut the parts from the tree. now the nailclipper blunt already so i bought a proper cutter from a local hardware shop. rm10 only

will the new titans Mk II be just a recolor of the aeug version? or will there be any improvements? if it's cheaper than the aeug version then i might consider buying

And yet you have no problems spending RM80+++ on silly overcharged plastic model kits.
hahah. and here's an example of a silly overcharged plastic:

btw, can nobody help me?  sweat.gif
it may sound obvious, but try pushing in the arms all the way.
if cannot, make sure its the correct polycap inside the upper arm.
if its the correct polycap, you can trim the insides of the polycap a bit using knife/file or whatever

not sure if i've posted them here yet, but here's some pics of my 1/144 astray red frame. i should've waited for the 1/100 scale. would've saved me alot of trouble painting it

I was wandering whether the term 'modelling' is correct or not
my opinion, modelling refers to models who show off fashion stuff thing
it can also mean 3D modelling.

but for plastic models, we assemble, we mod, we paint, we pose
so which part is 'modelling'?
*
they are after all gundam model kits, so i guess whatever we do to them is considered modelling

if you wanna spray, you might as well cover them seam lines and spray the whole kit. there's no spray that can reproduce the bling2 of the original coating

wow, nice. it would be better if you painted the g-parts. also, shouldn't the hip part be on the back and vice-versa?

what's so terrible about the 1/100 IJ? from the looks of it, the proportions dont look as bad as 1/100 SF (okay, that was a bad comparison), but still...ok what?

if you're complaining about the skinny legs, maybe its just optical illusion due to the white-colored shin area. and it's about time bandai made an NG 1/100 kit with 130º bendable arms
