Hey guys Here's a WIP of my RX-78 3.0. Been building gunpla for sometime jor but never attempt to weather or painted it. For this project i painted the exhaust with chrome paint and give it a weathering. It's my first time and open up for advice i wanna learn more. Still got weapon and the core fighter to settle and gonna paint my backpack. Here's the picture give me some feed back please. Btw i just ran out of top coat hence i could't finish the weapons and the backpack. biggrin.gif user posted imageuser posted imageuser posted imageuser posted image

My first time trying to hand paint mini figure. Started with amuro ray and next will be char, quite happy for a first timer but quite upset that i am unable to mixed to the correct colour ratio. While waiting to start my sazabi ver ka, decided to repaint my nu ver ka inner frame. If you can see the photo the right hand and leg is already painted while i still have to paint my left side and body of the nu ver ka. user posted imageuser posted imageuser posted image

Not necessarily Japan. Can acquire those parts from Taobao as well. Just find the model, then approach one of those Tobago agent from this forum had they will order the items for you.

Any College students here who received your student voucher you can go use it to claim gunpla at borders biggrin.gif. Even thought it's overpriced but oh well at least your using your voucher well.

Thanks. Mind to ask if there are HG or RG gundams at the shop? Wouldn't mind it being overpriced but would like to leave some for stationery. Have the make the trip there from Melaka some more.

There's is quite alot of hg even the builder fighters one, didn't see rg there but there are a tonnes of hg. Better be fast i think quite a few gunpla people know to get it there.

Just finished my Build Strike Gundam MG and it's a fun and solid kit love the looks and overall i fell in love with the shoulders and the head after i build it. Painted the eyes and it looks super good compare to the shitty stickers eyes.
