I've at least converted one or two female colleagues at my workplace, although they only bought HG and SD.

Seems like they were impressed by the time I put my Sinanju on my desk biggrin.gif

@jctasoga; well i do panel line after airbrush, but when i try to wash it, the marker seem is stick on the paint job and hard to wash it (those panel out of the line hehehe)

i was thinking would it be like, top coat it first then panel line and then flat coat it final???
*
Looks like the paint didn't dry completely if it 'expanded' (line looks thick).

The gundam panel liner should be easy to wash off even by swiping your thumb 2-3 times.

My wife bought for me HG Sinanju last time. She said she like the gold color trim on the Sinanju  sweat.gif

Well that explains why girls like Sinanju, it have gold trim on it  thumbup.gif

Right now I'm trying to poison them with RG. I switched to display RG on my desk and change it every month. July - Freedom, August - Titan, now for September I'm displaying Justice biggrin.gif

currently building this kit..

you guys have any ideas how to 'cover' the nub marks? whistling.gif

I did once for Nu gundam, but I don't know whether you could live with it. I made a 'color band' (stripes) in metallic green to match the psycho frame around the nub marks. It's similar to a car's racing stripe tongue.gif

cool. got pic? smile.gif

i wouldn't want to over-do it that much though.. was thinking to marker white on the nubmarks, but unsure how it'll turn out.. hmm.gif

I'll find it back, or I could make a sample for you on a left over runner biggrin.gif

buy silver color marker smile.gif
of course it still cant fully hide but it have less obvious to be seen too

That's why I opted to improvise the nub marks by making it a stripe instead.

I usually fold the box flat. Discard the bottom part, and fold the top part flat and I put it inside the plastic file  icon_idea.gif

I put the manual also with inside the plastic file.Then I put small sticker tag with the gundam name so I can easily search it later  nod.gif

I usually do something extra, scanning them at high-res and attach them at the AB3 biggrin.gif

The paper tack is also great for another purpose, which is to replace masking tape around highly angular parts. I'm currently doing this for the Sinanju head base to paint the chest emblem biggrin.gif

Actually it was myself, but at that time I was hunting Nu ver. Ka . It never occurred to me to get the 3.0, but after came back, regrets set in doh.gif

It's a bit over priced, but since the expo is coming, I'm already thinking just to get it there.

A good thing RG SF is coming eh? ∞ Justice will follow up soon I guess. Since they are milking SeeD/Destiny so much, why can't they release Providence in RG line doh.gif

no... must MG for providence!!!

I would be happy with either one of them... Frankly I would want it to be in RG line. Think about it, we already got the Freedom and Justice, and we lack the big bad. In Destiny, we already got the big bad (depending on how you look at Destiny, to me, it's anti-villain), and SF is confirmed while ∞ Justice is likely tongue.gif

Give me RG Providence! mad.gif

With the exception of Zaku, I think they are catering the RG line for main Gundam, for general purpose MS, I think it's a tough luck. Well, SkyGrasper is there because of Strike.

My vote also goes to exia.

Considering Exia is a very lean MS, I think we should have at least Avalanche Exia. Exia (even with the 7S) doesn't justify the normal RG price range tongue.gif
