its looks nice even that you never AB..so how you paint? spray can?
*
err yea ... spray can...
but some parts are too small to spray can so i use tamiya paint like those yellow parts on the sword... peacock smasher and the core fighter....
the only sticker i use(except decal) was the eyes and the side shoulder (small yellow round sticker)

hey bro
u only used marker?
it looks like the crossbone have no prob holdin all its big weapon. true?
anyway nice job!!
*
3 things i use....

1 .Fine gundam marker for lining
2 .Spray paint for the chest and slight shadow effect( thank god the body is dark purple to begin with easier to blend).Skeleton is sprayed with black

3 .Yellow and Red paint(tamiya) for core fighters yellow parts... (sword and etc)

Actually holding other weapons is okay but holding a reverse action of the sword like below's pose is hard...

polycarbonate paints are usually for RC and air planes models ,they do not have the gloss effect like the 1 u bought for ur red....
I did once bought 2 cans of red to made my entire zeta 2.0 into a red gundam tongue.gif
looks cool and also ugly... but it looks hot when its in aeroplane mode biggrin.gif


I went to time machine yesterday at berjaya Time square and bought a gold paint (mr hobby) spray and a paint bottle of clear yellow.
plan to first spray it on the frame of SF and then use clear yellow as the finishing touch..

although i bought a Full burst edition of SF, i know there will be some cut marks on some of the shining parts...... Any tips to reduce those cut marks...(cut marks = blackout marks). Will probably start on next week friday for my SF smile.gif
wish me luck..... i still nvr get top coat yet .... sad.gif

those black marks can be fixed by using gold markers..if you are not planning to spray the whole frame.

where did you get your full burst anyway? and how much?
*
I got my full burst for RM 330 at Games Arena Times Square they are doing pre-order also.. i get mine kinda fast from them smile.gif icon_idea.gif the entire set is lying on my room now waiting for me to do it biggrin.gif

Time machine sell the Mr Color paint(spray) kinda expensive rm 30 for gold colour
