Mask the peg and hole before painting so that it will remain unpainted.

 Yes, it might be cluttered for some but judging on his previous work, I think it will still look good and retain its identity once done. unlike other cluster-fck build that you cant even call Gundam.

plamo is not a toy, and hence, fragile. Gunpla is just made really good by Bandai that is why some can take more stress than usual.
Any transforme-able plamo means more fragile than usual. With all that decal placement, you better pick just a single mode and leave it as it is.

The 25 are good battroid (and I think the 31 are good as well), unfortunately, didnt like the Gerwalk (i am seeing they cant do the aggressive A stance) and the Fighter mode irritates me really bad. Since I wanted to have a good Gerwalk pose, I tried modifying it but ended up destroying both knee joint beyond repair. lol

@ktfong follow the public images/videos. Those are the realistic expectation of what you will receive and bandai released or official image are usually improved. Astray Noir is not really a black kit but a dark kit. It is mostly a very dark suit.
Bandai dont know what black means, just like banshee, a black unicorn is in any dark colors, except black.

QUOTE(ktfong @ Aug 3 2016, 07:59 PM) tis sazabi seems challenging to build https://youtu.be/VLrLy1srCvQ anyone own tis kit? built one and sold it since it is the only UC MS that I have. The kit is massive and really introduced a lot of cool engineering stuff. The only thing I hate is the use of Polycap for a big and heavy kit. I never saw it as challenging and frustrated build since I rathered enjoyed building it up but if one must rush to have it completed, then it will be a challenging build since you will spend hours just to have a small part of the kit completed.

QUOTE(xein @ Aug 25 2016, 08:36 PM) I think should be Red. afaik, the only difference between Bawoo and re-bawoo is that the RE-Bawoo has the Sleeves style (ex. gold trim of Sinanju) design similar to most UC 0096 (Unicorn) Zeon suit.

QUOTE(sphiroth @ Nov 13 2016, 02:24 PM) Although the anime just so-so, I'm still buying this. [attachmentid=8018765] Anime sucks. So-so is overstating it. The Mecha are good though.

general ric already explained it but to answer the last question, yeah, flat coating in general made the colors more lighter and using gloss coat will generally make it darker.
