the expo one? that was one of my first gunpla, i loved it a lot.. now i looked back, it's not that great.. not good for doing anything other than OOB build and display

Extra finish, coating or clear is like that one, no choice. If going to paint just get normal version instead of wasting the coating... sweat.gif
So far I only like orignal coated kit like Akatsuki, those specially coated kit can't get my attention. But RX 78-2 mechanical smoke clear not bad. Haha

Seeing the Sinanju thred, how can it be so expensive? New to gunpla, so whats determine the value of the gunpla to go up?
*
Rarity, for example expo kit or limited kit. But now days Bandai exclusive not really worth to get.
If assembled kit, I guess you can judge on
1. cleaning(nub/spruce mark)
2. paint job
3. customization(Custom colour excluded)
4. base/diorama

Decent work done can worth a lot, or those model kit that won any championship but if me I won't sell it, just keep it nicely for good memories.
That sinanju just a painted kit, and the paint job not so good and nub mark can be seen as well, so it don't deserve the price. doh.gif

Any tips to completely make nub mark invisible? I use magic pen.

LOL wth with the quote? Anyway, you can sand it away, from low grit to high, or use polishing compound for finishing.
Painted kit is the easiest, not really like to use marker because the color couldn't be 100% accurate.

Yes you can do it with marker, but won't look so good if you want great result. It still in acceptable range, just don't use marker on large surface.

Now on a process to erase all panel line, make a new one since its so messy. I just use normal panel line pen, so when I touch it, it just messy things up. So now, since I got my gundam market, better make new panel line.

Again, tips on doing panel line? I'm lining all part I can do panel line. Which, kind of ugly in some way.

user posted image
Actually, I mistakenly post this at that Sinanju thread. Lulz. laugh.gif
*
Well actually own preference, some like thick panel line, some like thin. Some like to draw all over the model, and some just draw the engraved line. Same case for the colour choice.
Tips? You can do it with mechanical pencil and can rub with eraser or cloth. The gundam fine marker for panel lining also can rub with eraser or cloth. You can do panel wash as well with Tamiya panel line accent, enamel paints or other colour marker pens. Mr. Paint remover or zippo lighter fluid can do the job well. smile.gif

i use bamboo toothpick to rub/trim it off for very tiny area.  unsure.gif
otherwise use finger/ nose oil / face oil/ tissue  whistling.gif

then the tip of the toothpick use too much the tip area become a "brush" already haha... easier to rub more tiny area  tongue.gif

shi- that hatch open mode is sexy as hell.. even the PG cannot afford to look that good... poison slowly seeping into the system sweat.gif

It was nice, but well PG is really hatch open whereas this one is armor levitate in the air...
PG with RG look decals and also you make the armor levitate sure look better than this MG 3.0 but doesn't make sense.
I still prefer Virtue gundam armor explode, armor floating around Nadleeh. That one was my favorite pose. smile.gif

haha, i remember that custom, that one was really great.. in any case, i think this MG 3.0 is starting to look really really good

and Tiger I another preventive measure is to wait, sit on what little money i have and hope a MG 3.0 of Zeta comes out that can do this brows.gif but the fragility will be too damn high!
*
Yup MG 3.0 was nice, but I too greedy planning to get Mega Size 1/48 so not sure. If tight budget then Mg 3.0 tongue.gif

lol....early morning i open this thread ...i terus  doh.gif ...all sifu come already...
beside..all sifu...i wonder if we use hand brush to colour the part is that ok ?? i heard that was a difficult job cuz hard to paint until balance..
i am wondering to get MR hobby colour...anyone can give me the colour chart for LAUNCHER / SWORD STRIKE ??
*
You can hand brush with tamiya enamel paint, easier to paint. Don't ever ever hand paint with lacquer, I've been cheated by a hobby shopkeeper which make me PIA when doing hand paint.

QUOTE(sai86 @ Jul 26 2013, 09:10 AM)
Those that bought RG Destiny, u guys buy the colorful wing as well?
once attached, cannot tutup/adjust the wing right? (100% fully open)
*
Ya it cannot be adjust. But it look damn awesome if you mod it
Beware! Destiny poison underneath but MG la. whistling.gif

actually i did search about tamiya, mr hobby and gaia for the colour chart.. Tamiya majority is more on car, tank, mr hobby and gaia will be better

Tamiya don't have much varieties but enough for gunpla. I do know Mr. Hobby and Gaianotes have a lot of choices, but you will regret if you use lacquer for hand brush, anyway up to you, cheers...
