Maybe I'm using a wrong eraser cos it rubs off the gloss of the plastic. Also damn hard to panel line it properly to make it look balanced (not too heavy or little ink)

i just got myself a very late birthday present, a RG Justice Gundam, good purchase...

My question is, I dont have the proper tools to begin assembly as yet, as i see a lot of people have a lot of cutter, knifes, etc... and I still have BB1M, if i go to popular bookstore, can I get the tools needed to at least begin assembly?

what i see is cutter, modelling knife, cutting mat and markers are the basic tools to have, is my budget RM100 can fit? or must spend a lot more? what more tools do i need?

Is this your first kit?

Keep in mind that different models come in different prices, taking into account the number of parts/metallic coating/rarity.

My best suggestion if you're in JP is to get the biggest kit you like (if you have space) because shipping it here to Malaysia by yourself would cost dearly. Otherwise, just disregard my advice and get whatever u like tongue.gif

Agree with you on this, furthermore the big kits like perfect grade are dirt cheap in Japan. makes it worthwhile to buy compared to MG.

no, the coating turns white and flaky when u spray it in lower temperature. The effect is like its covered in snow instead of clear flat hence the "winter" comment.

it can be easily fix if u hav a airbrush.

yeah....i kena this before. 1st time using spray and end up the finishing is flaky, uneven. cry.gif
