I'm a completely noob on gundam here..just got addicted after i've build my first gundam.....just have a question about painting on gundam models. Is there any cheap solution on painting them? like acrylics paints...is it neccessary must go for those Tamiya's paint? Because I found those normal acrylic paints from those art shops, is it ok to use them as the price is very cheap compared to those tamiya's paint.

QUOTE(Tsuto @ Oct 10 2006, 03:30 AM) I use Hobby colour to paint my gundam,much cheaper compare to Tamiya's,but Tamiya's bottle looks larger than Hobby colour. I like Hobby colour more than Tamiya's...By the way,you are hand painting or using airbrush/spraycan? I'm looking forward into hand painting, hobby color around RM6 per bottle rite?Maybe other members here can give you opinion on what paint should be used.  I have been long didnt assembly and paint a gundam already....no time.  Still have a lot of boxes I havent started to assembly. Miss my gundam painting time..sob   |
