Maybe the armor make it look fat! For me having a HG of this kit is really enough, no more Strike for me! But i would like the riffle that comes along with this kit.

Who that going to buy and dun want the riffle can give it to me!!!

Tried TM at Times Square, u need to ask the owner to take the stock out (they are all locked up)

i also just brought it for RM165 from AF just the past Sunday! Not start assembling it yet, may have to wait till i finish my SRW kit first!

MG Gouf Custom Ver 2.0, DOM ver2.0 and all those one-eyed kick ass MS from Zeon!!! Sry for those gundam lover, I just cant resist those Zeon MS!!!

Here are the other pictures of my MG Crossbone

Those gold dust on the kit are done purposely

Here a closer view of the weapon
[attachmentid=191187][attachmentid=191188][attachmentid=191189]
From this view u get to see how the other parts of my kit is color, same technique just the gold dust is not so heavy on the body itself!!!

From my experience certain industry spray cant be apply on plastic, it melts the plastic!
Some industry spray can be too thick or the surface may be too rough!

Conclusion is u can used it but the effects may not be as good as hobby one!

Oh u did the X-3 theme on ur full cloth! I havent got mine MG Full Cloth yet waiting for the price to drop......

I am already confused on wat theme should i do on this Full Cloth since i already did the dark theme one (X-2 theme is definitely out)!

For the outer armor i think u can stick with the original color or some other color which is brighter (since X-3 give an brighter image overall).

I personally feel tat the tamiya titanium Gold is more shiny than the Mr Color Gold!!!

boyarque u did not paint the inner frame of the kit? U can used the Flat top coat to make the inner frame part more realistic and used the Gloss one for the armor the make it more shinny! Then it would be more perfect!!!

Mine Titanium Gold is paint bottle one, never notice any spray types. The gold leaf 1 is not bad, just tat it is kind of deeper gold (almost like the Mr Hobby one)

I dun like painting the parts while they are still on the runner becoz when u cut them out u will see the place where connecting to the runner unpaint or having a slightly different color from the whole thing!!!

It may be fast but overall it aint good!

U can assemble ur kits first (just dun fix them too hard) then when u want to paint u dissemble them! Better off part by part (hand, leg, body, head dun fix them all together it will be hard for certain parts to dissemble). I learn my leason after breaking a few parts of my Zeta.

Nothing special about the Noir! Same as mine HG Noir at home, pay 3 times more to get a bigger size onli, the frame is no attraction at all since there is already 3 kits similar to it already!!! Go buy HG enough...

wah u really like SF very much to spend tat much money on that kit.....

This is wat i heard from one modeller:

"To make the paint to stay on the kit, u will need to wash every piece of parts with detergent (those for washing dishes one), make sure there is no oil on the surface of the plastic, then let it dry (1 day?). After tat used surfacer on the kit."

By doing the thing above u can make sure the color can stay stronger on the kit! But i personally think it may still be scratch off if by forced (car paint also will fall off lah).

The menthod above i myself have not tried it before, so dun flame me ok? I just sharing onli... this is the way we improve our skills right. Sharing info together giving each better option!

Dun be so sure there is no Strike frame coming out leh!!! Later u get a coated version, clear version Strike than u even get all sort of rubish!!

I think wearing a glove may help!!!

May go for HGUC kits since their price on those kit is still acceptable!!! GP02 with the Nuke Rockets back pack!!!!

i think u brought the silver marker not the plated silver marker, the plated one is like a mirror after using it can reflect things.

I dun remember the price of the marker but for sure is around RM10-RM19 (not more than 20) got mine from XL-shop

The difference is the marker body is using a shinny silver color instead of the black!

i got it from TM and the price is RM65+
I dun think u can get it from TM anymore (out of stock currently) try Graffiti (remember seeing one before)! The model is very hard to find nowadays!!!

For me i wish Bandai will release the 303 Devilfish, that is a masterpiece!!! Way more cooler than the Nirvash (i think it overshinned in the last 2 episod)

In BTS at the same level where McDonald is! It is just near by McD!!!

U wont die! Ur aircond will die first! The filter of the aircond may most likely be stuck first so dun worry! Wow Crossbone at RM153.4 not bad ehh!

May be going over to BTS today, since i broke my hobby used cutter! Get a replacement. Same time may check up the XL shop over there.

nothing just that the paint dry super fast onli cant even used to paint thing all stick on ur brush

Any suggestion on wat to color on the ACGUY? I cant think of any! May try those military types!
