Just look at the articulation of this kit, just fantastic!!! The leg can now bend like that! Reminds me of the old one which can't even beng 90degree (WTF for a MG)!!!!
yeah, sumore the elbow joints are made of polycap material. i broke mine while trying to pose the damn bugger.

i feel that the zaku ver.2 looks more HGUC, and closer to the original look in the anime. more 'muscle' flex.gif

what do you guys use to cut parts off runners? bandai cutter? 3rd party ? i cant seem to find any 3rd party cutter like bandai at all.

There is a gundam shop in prangin mall that wanted to sell me a 3rd party cutter (bigger than bandai) for RM20- RM30 - u think its worth it ?

you can get cheaper ones from any hardware shop

this zaku pose looks kinda awkward. it seems the front skirt armors have been downsized a bit. i wonder if the added flexibility is enough to convince me to buy it...

Use fingers?~?  will my hand become cacat?
The putty is apply directly right? just to make sure it don need to mix with thinner or wat.. he he.
*
im using tamiya basic putty, the grey color one. i find it very difficult to apply the putty straight out of the tube. i mix a few drops of thinner to dilute it so it's easier to apply.

by the way, using fingers to apply basic putty is very impractical, unless your fingers are as thin as a toothpick. just carve a toothpick into a chisel-like edge and apply the putty along the seam lines

Yeah.. i try apply directly from d tube.. the putty seem not soft enough to get into the gap. So mix with Thinner can make this easier ? U using toothpick too? or can we use brush? will it spoil? Thanks for the knowledge. notworthy.gif

why ruin a brush when you can use disposable toothpicks? anyway, if you use a brush, most of the putty will stick to the brush bristles instead of the seam lines

Dont quite like d blue from the original plastic. the blue should be lighter. Thats why i must repaint it. donno when will i only get to start my hi nu

guys there is this tool which looks like a long brush but it's not a brush and it has a metal tip for lining, i saw someone use it to scratch the edges to make lining n then use the lining marker....wat do u cal it n where to get it?

i'm guessing you're talking about a scriber. you can probably order it online. if you're getting it to scribe new panel lines, i suggest a cheaper alternative: a sharp pin

Hmm.. another trick that u can do for the coloring on dark surfaces is to first paint on white, then the actual color.
or you can use grey primer on the dark surface before painting
