QUOTE(D-y @ May 24 2016, 11:25 AM) hows the size of the kit? do u feel it will be tedious if want to do some painting to it? 
It is small. If just airbrushing everything in one colour it will be easy to do.

Done. Took me some time to apply the stickers. Before someone asks, the blue color are stickers. The plastic are grey and white except for the white sticker near the ankles.

QUOTE(amir_kaldra @ May 25 2016, 09:41 AM) Wow. Thank you for you kind reply, Sir. Currently I am on industrial attachment in Korea. Noted that "put it inside my checked-in luggage from KK to Penang" no problem. Also, I will return to Malaysia by end of year. Just worry if I stock up my paint here, later cant bring to Malaysia.  . Ask Korea pos, they said they dont accept paint. Only choice check in luggage. Currently wife complain, gundam box so big. how to bring back to Malaysia. Need to stop buying.  No, you should buy a lot more. Open them. Then rent a container, you know the large cargo one. Then you ship everything by sea. This way you can also ship your paints and other liquids... The problem with bringing liquid into the cabin is that there's a chance of it to combust or vaporize in low pressure thus may cause fire. But not when sending them by sea.

QUOTE(TheEvilMan @ May 26 2016, 08:33 AM) I wish they can improve the skirt instead of following hg which only tilt front and not side way, it make certain poses looks odd You mean the front skirt or the side skirt? The front skirt, you just need to separate the part into 2 parts. A simple cut in the middle did the trick. As for the side skirt, it uses ball joints connecting to the back skirt. The only problem is that the side skirt movement is restricted by the hose. And the torso's is also restricted by the hose and by the skirts.

QUOTE(chriswoo @ Jun 4 2016, 01:38 AM) I been working 1 kit for almost 3 year and yet to finish. Now still brain storming implementing led kit. LED OFF  LED ON » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « What happened to the zeta inside? LED points should be on the wings or gun nozzles. Then there's the vernier nozzles.

I did a crazy thing this weekend. I did a simple straight build on a PG Gundam MK2. Started doing it on friday night and finished it today afternoon.
I can't say much about it since this is from 2002. The first problem i had was the knees tend to bend too easily. The second was the upper arm armor tend to easily come off. And the third is the leg suspension gimmick is kind of making it hard to pose the feet. The lighting gimmick i have not tested. A fun build none the less.

Maybe the peg needs a sand down by a few microns.
