SD are more difficult to paint because they don't come with separate parts for different colors, some areas can mask, others like wrist just too narrow to even paint brush. also panel lining is difficult because the lines are too shallow. however i find SD got more character compared to normal ratio.

Got my sazabi but pending to build til next month

next month is just a day away...

somewhere mid-end of august

paint it or straight build? if straight build recommend to try nail buffer to shine it, can create mirror like gloss if you try hard enough.

seen people done it and its remarkable.

straight build
looks nice, should i apply the nail buffer before or after water slide decals? and should i coat it again after nail buffer??

ps: wait a min, is this the nail buffer u mentioned??


not those liquid right?

Was wondering how come like long time didn't hear litt tak got warehouse sale and after checking only realize that the sale just pass. 12~14 June..
I'm way out dated.. =.=

no time and skill
the only thing i can do is to make the strightbuild looks as good as possible

hehe then you better prepare more time slot for this polished sazabi build, its gonna be a looong ride....

no if you straight build also can one some i can see remarkable straight builders achieve better finish than most painted kits.

thats why i salute to those can straight build without showing nub white marks where most air brush guys use to cover it up.

bro, he dont have an air brush set, horrified to see if he try to hand paint the sazabi.

i had failed to hunt for it, any precise location selling it?
