normally applying it piece by piece tends to give the best results, as should you apply it when the model's already assembled, there's bound to be places where you cannot reach.

although applying it piece by piece may get the best result but if certain pieces has been added too many layer or not completely cover u may end having parts with different color on ur kit when u assemble it all together!!!

always love the Mk-2! Look awesome although it has already been 20+ years old design.

Mine is still in the box! Hopping to try the sanding and weathering effect on it.

Nice shadowing u got there. Never try that before! U complete the whole kit without AB? All handpaint?

kk..got it.
Im assemble it now, still amatuer, from those tools & sand paper i got, still left some marks on parts.

I dun likely to cut my kits male joint feels like destroying it! I usually drill the female joint, making them bigger and easier to fit in and remove.
BUT be aware!!! u need to try the joints fitness first, if they are already loose enough to remove without moding the joint, then dont go and drill them or cut the male joint, u will end up with a loose joint which in the end may required to stick them back using hobby cement (or else u will suffer having parts which fall off)!!!

Hehe, a Bendi model will come in really useful at times like this smile.gif When you need to experiment with the sanding and stuff. Its gonna be hell to do it right, considering the defects level, but if you can get a Bendi model to look like its Bandai equiv in the end, imagine what kinda result you can achieve with an original Bandai smile.gif

somemore Bendi so much cheaper, so not as much heartache if you mess up in your experiments tongue.gif
*
Making bendi kits is all about "patients", takes a lot of patient to do so! I used to have a Bendi SD gundam, which i found out that the quality sucks like hell, just making the kits head and body took me a lot of time (almost as making a MG)!!!

PATIENTS is the key!!!

Me also dun get wat u r typing?
By the way it is not in japanese it is in Korean!!!

Main different between the OYW and Ver. Ka and 1.5 is the OYW has no "Core-fighter" and it is more flexible!!! And one more is the color of OYW is like "older" has a bit yellowish in it!!!

i'm not a fan of the gundam anime. i just like the models. the only anime i watch was endless waltz and war in the pocket. i just have to ask, what's the deal with the rx-78 anyway? there's so many variant. why is it so famous? i really hate the design, and those feet? man....they're like....ugly.

can someone enlighten me on why is this model so famous? is there another person that don't like the model? or am i just weird? smile.gif

It is the 1st! But tat is not important!
Wat important is the ppl tat watch the first gundam are now all in their 30-40 (age group), which also mean that they have a lot of $$$. Can keep buying their RX78 again and again!!! For me i nvr watch it but i felt in love with the OYW inner frame that why i get that kit!!!

Might want to try drybrushing of the silver onto the mouths instead of spraying. Reason being, since the entire thing's to dissapear under the armour skirt of the legs anyways, dry brushing will help with the shadowing effect. Somemore, dry brushing is addictive smile.gif

If you r too lazy to even used drybrushing just buy urself a Gundam Marker Silver.

For me sure go for the Hi-Nu gundam!!!

By the way from the review at Dalong.net the full cloth Crossbone seems to also faced the problem holding its huge weapon!!!!

I think it should not be called Full-Cloth Crossbone but should be called FACrossbone (full Armor due to the amount of weapon u get with the extra 1000yen)

I think it will be bigger than the Nu Gundam!!! Since it is going to fight with the nightigale!!!

Come on bandai give a us a big kit! Gives us some serious PG and giant MG!! How come no MG Zaku III???
