First Page! and First Time!

Gamers Arena was running out of decals last week I went.

Time Square has 3 places. 7th Floor Gamers Arena. 2nd Floor, Time Machine and Tamashi Nation.

Lowyat has Fantasy Toys

Sri Petaling has Glory System Enterprise. Inside Endah Parade.

Place with most selection is Gamers Arena. I think. Hope this helps.

I just went there yesterday and bought my MG Wing EW Ver. But auntie keep telling me to call her first before going, maybe their operation hours are random now.

Sharing my work!

Straight Build with a little detailing:)

Shining Gundam!





I used MR Hobby Glossy Top Coat this time, but somehow I just feel like it is the same with the original plastic, not really Shiny and Glossy.

Hi Guys, it has been awhile since I ask you sifus something.

I am beginning to take interest into spraying paint on my Gunpla, because of budget issue, I cannot afford MR Hobby / Tamiya Spray Paint, also because of my environment Airbrush is also out of question.

I found a Malaysian Brand though, DPI Anchor Lacquer spray can, I am actually quite satisfy with the color, for this brand is ALOT cheaper than MR Hobby / Tamiya.

However, I find the surface of the paint is quite rough comparing to MR Hobby / Tamiya spray paint. As in, you can actually spot the difference of the paints with naked eye.

MR Hobby silver - more smooth and more natural on the plastic.
DPI Anchor decorative chrome - You can actually see the unevenness with your eyes if you look closely.

My question is, can I fix the smoothness or at least improve it? or this is an foundation issue caused by ingredients? Or is there any cheaper alternative spray can you would suggest?

Short version: How to fix the rough surfaces of the DPI Anchor Spray Paint?

Thanks in advance.

It's more hazardous to use spray can? Wow I really dint know that.
The problem because I do not use airbrush is because my family has different sleeping time, and Airbrush emits sound.
Which airbrush set would you recommend and where can I find it? Also, I don't mind paying more for airbrush set, but I need it to be silent.
If I am using airbrush would it be cheaper than Mr hobby / Tamiya Spray?

I still use MR top coat for finishing, but I just want to use cheaper alternative for coloring

Will try your method if the sun comes out this weekend!

If it is hazardous I might need to stop using them though, expecting a baby

So there is no silent compressor for airbrush?
I do my stuff in the day, its just some of family sleep in the day

Thanks man! Off to research for Airbrush now!

What compressor and airbrush are you using now?

Wait, I bought 2 kits (Around RM 190-200 total) from HLJ last week, do I have to pay kastam or tax? If yes, how do i pay? Damn, I thought I was saving money.

Thanks for the info, you guys are always helpful.

Will share my experience when my stuffs arrive.

Just back from Litt Tak warehouse sales.

Got HG Nu Gundam for RM 65.00
HG Turn A for RM 50.00.

Hi guys,
