Keyword: "SAL" tongue.gif If SAL, the one who deliver it to you will be normal Pos Malaysia, in which their handling sometimes are bad.
EMS package will be handled by PosLaju.
*
i think the main packaging also a factor...
this is from Plamoya .. and their box kinda thin and soft ... reminded me of Play-Asia .. sweat.gif
amiami, hlj or hobbysearch .. they use hard cardboard ..
and they have their own signature packing of the items before put them in shipping box ... haha..

we can expect rough handling from either pos malaysia or poslaju crews ... non bias .. laugh.gif

correct me if im wrong ..
if need to paint on darker plastic, just paint primer for layer .. then paint the color on top that you desire ...

i rhyme laugh.gif

btw .. need to find a marker or sharpie of yellow and white color ... more selection the better, since i need a specific yellow and white .. for the above kotobukiya rockman zero kit .. sweat.gif

yes, krylon is a cheap alternative.

u wan even cheaper then that, invest in an airbrush and use clear flat. Far easier to control, less imperfection, less wastage.
*
saw 1 at art friends .. rm44.90 .. the mr. hobby is rm30 .. but krylon has more ml ..
airbrush is like going pro already .. more work for setup .. sweat.gif maybe not in near time ..

Not done yet lar....too tired last night. Yes, I've used bosny gold spray for the inner frame. Now got itchy want to try spray the blu dragoon to white. brows.gif

i did the panel line before snap fit the parts .. else will be harder to handle ..
my opinion, pls dont change the dragoon color ... if looks bad, you will regret ... if looks good, then i want to tiru .. sweat.gif

For those who top coat their strike freedom, do you use different type for the gold (gloss) and the rest (matte/flat)?
*
i think depends on which you wanna make it look matte non shiny or glossy ..
if you wanna make the gold chrome parts stays shiny, dont spray matte on it ..

what do you guys think about robot spirits series? though they're not in scale as i know of, are they worth getting?
price wise, robot spirits more or less the same price of a MG kit of the same model ..
but scale, robot spirits abit bigger than normal 1/144 .. smaller than 1/100 ..
