Extremely low possibility unless they did partformers or two versions like the hguc.

I prefer they do two versions like HGUC actually. It will be more solid, and I don't need to build 2 identical kits to display both form side by side... icon_idea.gif

Seen like they add in more details and increased the height a little.
But this don't feel SD any more as the head looks not that big..

Noob Question: Come across a good deal for Titanium Finish model kit, thinking to buy it onot.
My concern is Can we still draw Panel line with marker & put Decal on Titanium Finish surface just like normal kit?
the finishing looks great, but rather bland if without panel line & decal...

yes you can. the panel line might take longer to dry or easily come off though, not sure if it will smudge if you spray top coat, maybe mist coat then wet coat to prevent smudge from happening.
*
Thanks.. Don't think gonna Top Coat it. scare the Titanium Finish become not obvious..
As long as I can panel line and decal it... I'm satisfied...

Hey guys, my gf is going hong kong next week. And the metal build astray gold amatsu is launching that week. Is there any store in Hong Kong that sells these damashi stuff at reasonable price ? Missed the preorder and the price had been jacked up insanely...

Somehow make me feel that it will share the exact unchained mode which cant be performed with claw and Cannon, very high chance that those come in p bandai with ver ka gold decals sad.gif

If need to fork out 1000 for whole package might as well get composite banshee n mg phenex so the 1/100 lines can be completed

get the Composite Bashee thumbup.gif super sexy..

Hi fellow seniors,

Hope you don't mind a newbie posting his work here blush.gif

My first straight build in 5-6 years since I went study. Now finally settled down & can start building kits.. rclxm9.gif

Problem encountered: I used Gundam Marker, but the panel line is too thick for my liking (especially because my drawing speed is slow, the line got even thicker)....
Is there other modelling marker pen that draw thinner line that you guys recommended?

you know you can just wipe out the access of if it's dried use penknife to scratch out the excess right? since you aren't painting it it won't hurt the surface much, just go Mr.DIY and buy a Can of rm5.99 clear and do a mist coat on it, mist coat, not wet coat.

That sounds many works for me, scratching all panel lines.. Doubt I have the patient sweat.gif

QUOTE(cacin @ Jun 29 2015, 09:03 AM)
Nowadays I tend to use real touch marker for panel lining. They are water based and can wipe with fingers or tissue. I think the tip is also softer compared to the normal gunadam marker.
*
Real Touch Marker. Ok thx, will try that.. It will be great convenience if can wipe clean easily..

QUOTE(TheEvilMan @ Jun 29 2015, 09:13 AM)
Is RG always meant to be fragile, haven't have any of them, the frame is prebuilt right, won't that help?

Well, RG Zeta survived my accidental 80cm drop test.. guess it's tough enough.. tongue.gif
