My 1st RG is the Zeta, and I don't find any problem putting it together, most probably due to the pre-cautions highlighted by our bros here before.
Nevertheless, each and every kits are made by plastic, not metal, so they are vulnerable, do treat them with caution and you will do fine, even RGs.
For the kang kang pose, I have no problem with it, spam pic again tongue.gif

if you cannot catch those verbally, then here are your options:
- go attend modelling classes (not those cat-walk modelling ya)
- go watch tutorials from youtube (if 1 not enough, there are tons of them)
- buy lots and lots of kits, experiment on them until you get the feel
- go ask the model kits shop owners to give opinions or show you how it's being done

that's why when theory fails, he has to do it physically, practice makes perfect right?
and some more, as what bro HxiiK has mentioned, SABAR, SABAR and SABAR....

How about craft knife? Can that get through customs?

Sorry but I'm new to mechas, have two valvraves models need to build soon.  sweat.gif So here's what I'm planning to get:
-cutting mat
-craft knife
-File set
-nippers
-sanding sponge
-cement

Will that be sufficient? Planning to trim it as neat as possible, but not paint it. Will I need a marker? If so, which colour would you guys suggest? The models look something like this:

As for the sanding sponge, which grade will be suitable? Ultra fine? Micro fine?

And I see @tytroum is selling some sort of pen-like glue aplicator, would that be more convenient?

Feel free to suggest anymore tools I will need. Thanks in advance.  laugh.gif

since you're looking at items from tytroum, why not ask him these questions? he's quite friendly and will answer all your questions.
the only problem is that his mail is always full sweat.gif

if we're talking about valvrave, i prefer Valvrave III Hikaminari, really like those 2 big side arms, just that the fingers looks like those from Doc Octo tongue.gif

MG and RG wor... no space??  whistling.gif

RG will not be an issue I know, size same as HG, but....
depending on series, eg Unicorns, two MG from Unicorn series is almost equivalent to 3 HGs correct me if I'm wrong, hence, space constraint issue.

Resource/Space is not an issue. Rather...I keep looking at how delicious the MGs look compared to HG.  wub.gif
Its like....comparing old gf and new gf.

...and then you say to yourself...

"Why did I get a HG in the first place! I should've went with MG's from the start, all the way!"  doh.gif
*
Cannot use gf for comparison, not fair biggrin.gif
instead, use cars, eg you have the resource to get a Civic, instead you got yourself a Kancil.
after that only you realized the potential and accessories of the former one surpasses the latter tremendously....then you will have that thought:

"Why did I get a Kancil in the first place! I should've went with Civic from the start, all the way!"

I collected MG and PGs from the start, started my first RG with Zeta, fyi...
