QUOTE(onnylam @ Aug 3 2014, 11:49 AM) These are the thinner and primer that I used... » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Just noticed that the thinner you used are arcylic based, are you sure you're using the same base for primer? Just wondering though.... Anyway, if you want to paint for the Nu, my advise is to clean the parts 1st, then primer them, especially the outer armor parts, because mine seems to be easily 'scratched' off  Good luck  as the pic i use those 2 products only. maybe i should get Mr.Hobby thinner QUOTE(General_Nic @ Aug 3 2014, 12:07 PM) solvent-based acrylic is technically lacquer Lacquer is not suitable for the bootlegs right ?

1:3 ratio is fine.. i always premix all my paint in that ratio the main problem of this issue is probably u layered it too thick.. or us airbrush psi is too low, so instead of spraying mist coat, is sprayed thick paints...

Got poison-ed by the modelling from you guys. Would really like to try and buy one. But there are many brands and would like you guys recommend which brand to go for a MG grade, will consider a PG Strike Gundam too. TTHongli or GaoGao? Thanks

Thanks  Best advice is.. do not go for PG strike  because the only one out now is by model gd/ghd and they are the worst Generally, gaogao is better than tthongli since they are both the same company but gaogao is the newer brand name, so newer is usually better  For MGs maybe u should try the newer daban brand,those are pretty good by themselves except with slightly shinier plastic, so if you paint,it will be the best to go for

Price for PG 00 Raiser from Bdai is *bling bling* So initially is TTHongli and then rebrand to GaoGao after a law case and now they release the product under the name of Daban. So they are the same company but Daban is newer with better quality la, is it? correct me if i am wrong. I'll scout the market and see if i could get a 00 Raiser, thanks for reply!

Err IIANM daban and GG are two different companies. Daban has PG Strike Freedom and GG has PG 00 Raiser. Both are great in PG quality, but to be honest it's not a huge step of difference in details when compared to their MG counterparts. Articulation and excitement of building a PG, of course goes to PG.
