i haven't open my F91 MG to see whether its really polycapless or not  hmm.gif

Yup it is really PC less!!! Same goes with the Crossbone!!!


QUOTE(Ah WanG @ Jan 31 2007, 12:27 AM)
so the one wif polycaps is better or polycapless is better? n may i know y? thanx
*
The PC less seems to be more stronger and harder to bend but as exchage u get more durable joints and also able to make pose that are difficult like holding a big weapon tight!!! Maybe can be apply on Wing gundam riffle!!!

Haha, actually i dun really care much bout pilots....I found Destiny kinda sucks, not coz it's being piloted by Shinn..it's coz of the Gundam doesn't seem powerful enuf...D flashy wing's burst r only a make up, hehe  brows.gif

At d end of d day, i'm still with the simple design of SF n IJ  laugh.gif Furthermore, d upgraded version of Freedom n Justice r still d most powerful throughout d whole series....Designs r simple, not bulky yet powerful....nicely done with the Gold n Silver joints.....  icon_rolleyes.gif

Bout Hi Nu, i still prefer the normal Nu Gundam but it would b better if the backpack has 2 sets of funnels (izit) juz like the SD Force's...One sided funnel's kinda wierd....  sweat.gif
*
blink.gif har... u mean SF and IJ looks plain and not bulky. To me i think they look too complicated. If u really want to said a mecha that is not bulky in CE era tat would be Astray Red Frame!!!

talking of non bulky but most powerful i would vote for God Gundam! OWN Kira and Athrun badly even with their seed open!!! GOD Finger (they goes with SF and IJ head) icon_rolleyes.gif


QUOTE(fyire @ Jan 31 2007, 02:37 PM)
hmm.. seems that hand painting does use a lot less paint compared to air brushing.
*
I agree with this! But handpaint sometimes also consumes a lot of paint!


QUOTE(leddmirage @ Jan 31 2007, 03:31 PM)
hand painting does use less paint but it requires skills to paint.. if the mixture is not right, u get brush strokes on ur models..
for handpaint u need to add a few drops of mr. retarder mild to ur paint and of cos u need to add thinner too..
airbrush sprays paint on unwanted surfaces too hence more paint required.. but no brush stroke problem except for some water droplets if ur compressor goes too hot..
*
Get a water trap for ur AB then it will get rid of the problem.

QUOTE(VincC454 @ Jan 31 2007, 04:34 PM)
both method also depends on your liking..like me i prefer AB than handbrushing..unless for those small mg figure..whihch is no choice have to use hand to paint them..

if you do the lining already..you still can spray ur gundam..but decal..you spray of couse you also cover the decal..
*
I usually AB but sometimes handpaint is required too. Especially if they is a small part which has different color than others, or if they is too few parts with the particular color AB will be wasting a lot of paint and not to mention the clean up after AB1

0300078,
malaysia is a humid country so moisture is always there in the air.
i do have a moisture trap, but it only works to a certain "time" around 20-30mins depending on weather.. then need to drain the trap and wipe off excess water. do u have other methods which i could try? (pls don't tell me to buy an air dryer!! rclxub.gif )
*
in Multifilla there got sell a type of hose where there is a part which is fill with silical gel(dunno if i spell wrong or not) in it, it is used to replace the hose connecting ur AB and compressor, it helps but a problem is it will expired after certain period of usage (maybe can take those in food one to replace them)

After looking at ur HG RX-78 reminds me of mine RX-78 which is the first MG produce. It is still in it boxes.

QUOTE(Jckk @ Feb 2 2007, 12:21 AM)
doubt it could be true cuz its bandai's way of making consumers buy both versions.

OMG not mk-2 Version 3.0!!!!

Oh 1 question for all of u gunplayers out there, is there a really good way to prevent the paints to fall of from scratches!!! Even applying primer does not really helps (the paints sometimes even fell of with the primer)?

cause i never do any lining on the inner frame..except for its fingers only..
yes..all just mr.hobby gold color(9)..try to mix with clear yellow..but doesnt turn out to be that nice also..end up just spray with one color..

about the paint? do you mean its chip off from the model or the parts that rub to each other always scratch the paint out? i found that if you use surfacer 500..the paint stick better than using a 1200 one..
*
I am using those Tamiya Primer Grey! It seems to be not strong enough! surfer paint chip of especially places near joints! I may tried the 500!!!

I've never own any NG 1/100, so dun really know if there r problems like tat  whistling.gif
Only have 1 HG 1/100, tat's Deathscythe H-Custom...noticed almost d same thing....arms r weak, can even pose properly with the scythe...waist couldn't support the weight of the cloak (devil wings)....legs...same with the waik, weak...
Any idea how to make enhance those parts? Sigh..that's why i'm waiting for the MG version...it might b able to generate some sales since many ppl fancy d design  laugh.gif

As for the design for Seed MSV etc...i hate Astray series from the first to d last...Only like SF, IJ, Legend, Providence, Akatsuki, Aegis n Sword Strike....I worshiped Freedom, muahahahah  rclxm9.gif

Juz fixed my Freedom yesterday....found out that d wings r like damn big...n it dwarfs my smaller God n F91...  rclxm9.gif

maybe can try to buy joints to change existing one ( a little mod of course ).
Is it true that revoltech joints are sold, if so may tried to used them on HGUC kits!!! may do wonderful on them!!!

When everyone is now busy survey for the cheapest price of crossbone full cloth, me myself baru siap my own MG Crossbone Ver Kai!!!

Took damn long to do so!!! (Thx to my compressor breakdown and all those busy weekend and OT)
[attachmentid=190417][attachmentid=190418]
[attachmentid=190419][attachmentid=190420]
[attachmentid=190422]

For me i will wait till LittTakk bring in the MG crossbone full cloth! It will be at least RM10 and above cheaper than the current one! No hurry plenty of kits havent finish yet!


Today i went to the AF hobby shop! Brought 3 kits, MG SF, Special Version MG freedom and the HGUC TR-5, the shopkeeper quite a nice guy. Will go there more often!!!

Almost forget, those decals that he is going to sell in his shop looks quite nice too, can be consider for those gunplayers who wants good decal!!!

I got my for RM84! but after discount with all those others kits! I think roughly RM80! (total purchase was RM375)

bro..you use any surfacer?
what grade you use for this crossbone?
*
eh... i onli apply surfacer on the parts where their original color are very deep (such as part that r red color).
The surfacer i used was the tamiya plastic primer grey!!! Nothing special of it though. (still suffer from scratch off)


QUOTE(nlik @ Feb 5 2007, 10:15 AM)
rm 132, which shop is that where i can find it?  thanks.

That's price should be quite ok i think since i don't have any transparent gundams to date.

I have looked at it at :
dalong.net

Even the stand is transparent grey.

But had the idea to paint the internal frame silver and it'll show more through this clear plastics.  And just need to find somethign to fit in the head. looks to hollow.
*
U got the same idea as me! I am going to paint it gold mixed with shinny color (those usually used applied on lightsaber)

The owner of AF shop said he dare not take in a lot of stock! I got one yesterday, i think it should leave back 1 set in his shop. If finish then u will need to go buy at TM which is RM160!!!

QUOTE(zio @ Feb 5 2007, 05:50 PM)
March release stated at the site. Price is 6175 yen.
*
As usual coated kits are damn expensive! Sure not getting this kit! 6175yen is already RM200+ better get the MG Hi-Nu (not worth paying so much for a NG kit)

QUOTE(XenoFr3ak @ Feb 5 2007, 05:57 PM)
Anyone knows where can i get the picture of MG Infinite Justice .. cant seem to find it at Dalong.net.

that is becoz it does not exist! dalong onli post those Bandai ready make kit! No kit bashing or moding kits in his website!

I think a few forumers here still have the link to the website which got the MG IJ! See if they can help u......


The major surprise for me is the MG Zaku 2 version 2.0
http://www.1999.co.jp/kuwashiku_e.asp?url=...a=10055446&no=1
I am for sure getting this baby! The most famous kit in all gundam! Even in the anime Turn A got mention it as one of the most popular kit! Almost came out in every Era!

Cool down bro, I am just having some fun playacting the love/hate relationship that almost all of us have.  I am not upset.  Sit back and have a few laughs, makes the day pass faster, so that we can go home fix up the kits!

BTW, I am sure the Japanese as well as all Gundam fans complain.  If we get another version of the RX-78 for the 100th MG version.... some will celebrate but most will complain unless the kit breaks new ground.  Life is like datlah.

Peace bro.
*
I dun think who will complain becoz "ppl want it get it, ppl dun want it sure will not paid a cent" just leave it as it is.

For those tat wondering why get PG and all others question! I think getting NG to HG then till MG and lastly PG is somehow like changing car! If you have money then sure u will choose the better one right! HG for proton, MG for Japan made car, PG for German cars!!! The richer you r the more u can buy!!!!
