i'm beginning to question my state of mind when purchasing this.. granted it was INSANELY cheap.. but still.. PG isn't usually an impulse buy for me
at least now i can see why everybody says this is one of the best PGs

Regarding painting, my method is not to snapfit first then look at what color to put on each part.

for me, i read the manual, look at the parts on the runner, then decide what type of color to put on (masking option as well, if applicable).
Then the normal procedure of remove parts from runner, sanding, etc

then do the painting and coating. Final step, assemble it. 

Actually, after you have built so many kits, you can already know pretty much about which piece goes where. Larger symmetrical pieces will be for the legs, smaller ones will be for arms, etc etc. And these pieces usually can only be snap fitted correctly in only one way.

I've seen tutorial where he used a medicine box to separate/numbered parts, some used camera phone, the cheapest (but need to make sure no one touch your parts) is by using a white paper, then draw a 'box', write the number and put the parts in the box.

i actually memorized the shape first by comparing it to the manual
of coz there is an easier way...just write the parts number according to the runner then stick on the stick which u pin ur parts on

any worth to visit gundam shop in Taipei ?

but then there will be unpainted area when u move ur joint, which is why i prefer to airbrush each part separately.
decal and coat before assemble 

I seriously hope this wont be the official display stand for Neo Zeong

Might be cheaper to send it to car spray workshop. Can get metallic finishing.

calm your tits when you see this

it seems like PG Unicorn is once again a hoax

if yes, search for "MG RX-78 3.0 零件" in Taobao

Love it too. In fact it make me feel like hunting a FG to do it as well
But painting skill not that good =.=

Actually, you can avoid the fuss, if you have good hand-painting skills

used to be a guy called kukubeh from the SD thread who was very good at this.
