I'm no master, what I usually do is;
- cut the part from the runner, leaving about a few mm of nub
- trim the nub with cutter, this time with a closer cut but not fully removing it out
- trim the remaining with a knife, making a clean cut
- touch it up with markers. for dark areas, grey sometimes works best

here's how it looks after being cut, before trimmed with a knife and touch-up:

i see, thanks for the advice, will try today with it's backpack and weapons
poor mk2, white patches all over  biggrin.gif
and the rope thing at the leg keeps coming out

too short or too long are not good. better cut exact length or spare 0.5-1mm only unsure.gif

you can see AEUG one too long , TITAN one is a bit short, but thank god i got spare 0.5-1.5mm there tongue.gif

maybe you cut the mesh hose too short? hmm.gif
it does the trick most of the time, although I do encounter some stubborn ones sweat.gif

for some thick peg i cut above a bit one then cut again... unsure.gif
like the manual said...then use knife trim, but of course not flat surface again lor unsure.gif

but still not visible in photo whistling.gif
bare eyes visible unsure.gif

i cut exactly the length specified, use the ruler on the manual.
a question then, since i haven't assemble the backpack:
after everything is finished, is there any extra mesh hose left? i'm thinking of cutting it again.
otherwise maybe i'll just use a tape to tape both end of it... last time i see it looks like a flower on one end already biggrin.gif
*
left only around 5-10mm only.
just use glue on end of the hose, it doesn't affect one haha...if you read manual carefully.

aeug indeed too long, but titans looks fine to me

i mean that time i experiment AEUG and TITAN, if yours too long will become my AEUG, i only cut longer 1-2mm only.

sweat.gif

(i do titan normal length, AEUG extra longer a bit since got 5-10mm extra for each wire and hose)

*
Only MKII design for those la aiyo laugh.gif

haha... i think if all RG got i pengsan already
thinking of collecting them all RGs

guess i'll borrow your pics for comparison then
*
summary for RG from my experiences:

1) RX78-2 , first RG, most parts to assemble, very awkward shoulder mount, bad bazooka mount
2) ZAKU II char ver. , first zaku, BAD FRONT SKIRT.
3) STRIKE, over improved a lot compare to first, a lot of posable pose can do. but also the colour separation did reduced a lot, due to AILE pack comes with it
4) ZAKU II mass production type, same SHIT with RG02, comes with custom decal to put your name.
5) FREEDOM , first split wing gimmick compare to MG PG whatever, also is a headache to assemble...well all freedom/ strike freedom is a headache to assemble when comes to wing part.
6) Skygrasper, thinnest box ever, no commend.
7-8) MKII, best RG ever, very sturdy
9) Justice, best remake design ever compare with old justice, include the backpack gimmick.
10) Zeta, First transformable RG, tallest RG ever, also first unique frame for transformation, include bendable V-fin, transformation is a HEADACHE, suggest you buy 2 for 2 modes for display whistling.gif
11) Destiny, better than that old MG gay slender leg design, RG one more macho flex.gif ( haven't finish it)

whistling.gif ini i agree.. just disappointed it didn't come with effect parts like the MG whistling.gif not even palma fiocina effects.. while the RG freedom had one set of effect parts.. although it's sold/gifted separately

also OT

I have to confessed I'm totally in love with RG series, affordable price, small size (save space), doesn't take too much of my time for assembly, and most importantly, really good detail... next would be strike and sskygrasper.  nod.gif

You mean the beam rifles? I agree, they look WAY too big.

do consider SF got mesh 2 rifle into 1 big cannon, for me it is quite logic instead 2 long slim mesh into 1 gay slim cannon (2 x rifle) whistling.gif

QUOTE(HxiiiK @ Aug 3 2013, 03:27 PM)
new RG aside.. which version of the RG MkII is recommended, AEUG or TITANS? tongue.gif

AEUG better if you got only gundam marker to do panel line
or else might need get a grey / lighter colour for TITAN. my titan also no lining :|

QUOTE(mf_yamato @ Aug 3 2013, 03:31 PM)
are u trolling? i thought both were the same?? huhuhuhu
i dunno bout the difference since no RG
