ur color seems to be a bit too tight! It produce some uneven glossy effects on ur kit! U been using industry spray can is it? Ur spray distance and amount must be control so the color can achieve better effect! And ur post is ok i think no mod will fire u!

ur pic just became not viewable.........
i think the problem is with the spray cans, since u mix so many color together, i see the shadding effect becomes like not so evenly done on the edge! U got the technique come invest on an AB i think u can achieve greater level!

so this is 1/100 i see no difference with the 1/144!

looks great the color scheme! And smart move to break of the other v din! But like shin said ur panel lining are too thick! U should have try using the Enamel paint instead of those Gundam Marker! better effect! Besides tat i see a clear view of the gap of ur riffle, u seem to have not add putty or plastic cement to cover out the gap! That all! No hard feeling ok! Just give u some hint on where to improve so u can do better next time!

Freedom should be easy enough! Just after assemble the backpack too heavy hard to stand alone onli!

Tmr my turn to update u ppl! Alteisen snap fit near 90% finish tmr u guys can have a look at the giant 1/100! I think it is bigger than the MG Hi Nu!

eh bro all model kits are like tat! Just tat bandai does not hide those line correctly like those Kotobukiya kits onli!

The sticker seems to be not right, a bit not align well!

No no no! Those skinny gundam r just so not right! Even it is 1/60 or 1/100 they still look skinny!
This is wat u guys should buy!

Red bulky beetle mecha!

Ok just finish snap fit my 1/100 Alty! And for those wonder how big he is! Here is a comparison with one of the big size MS of UC


I will start bathing it with soup tmr and same time AB it! Just stay tuned later for more serious Alteisen!

R u gonna mod the leg? I read the Hobby Magazine they mod the leg by deepening the armor part but i am not sure becoz the whole thing is write in JP so cant fully understand it!

haha nip remains on the V fin! U should sand it or cut it nicely!

tisuepaper ur kit looks like those test type mecha run by the moon base company (forgot the name), all test type by them are orange color!

And by the way did u color the white? Becoz it looks like the original white tat came frm the plastic.

Just like wat edan said Nips Mark every where! But i think since u already cut the nips off, u can now onli used the hobby knife to tidy up the thing!

ok ur zaku is now really good liao! Better than the muddy one! But ur stand look like some sponge with a lot of cheese powder on it..... Make those sand effect more fine then i think it would look better! keep it up i think still got sometime to do so!

hey pcomet is that ur final color? white or gray?

the 2nd one a bit weird loh becoz the head color different frm the rest! Anyway good luck! Newcomers usually easy to win something one!

Seems like u already painted on the inner frame. U could make it more sexy by adding more chrome or metalic color on the skirt of the leg armor (the skeleton for the armor).

Suzaku one memang teruk! I dun even plan to paint my!
Anyway Vinc used DSLR one so he can focus no need to edit with photoshop!

deng u did not said it clearly mah! I thought u referring to all his background! He onli edit the one with description one! Others dun have smoke effect!

Brother practice do perfect! There are 2 suzaku tat came with the kit! One in the cockpit and another separate! Both size quite big not like gundam one super mini size! So it is still able to be paint!

Lately me damn gao lazy to build model kit! Onli manage to finish snap fit my Code Geass Guren Type II 2 days ago.....but tat one need to paint so just leave it aside and wait till i finish AB my Alty 1/100 first. Now start a new one again this one not gonna paint or AB on, just gonna do some lazy OOB with minimun detailing to cover up the flaw!

So my current project is Zeon most favourable MS that failed the test stage for Mass Production....the mono eye tat could have change the fate of Zeon (maybe they could won the war faster if they used it). The mono eye that gonna go berserk if overheat.....HGUC Zudah!!!

As you all know lah this model kits come with almost all color accurate and is meant for serious battle one, so no colorful theme like those Gundam (tat why i like them).

Ok first since the torso part is a combination of 2 parts, so of course they will be some ugly seam lines or gap in the mid! So if u cant bare with it applied some plastic cement and glue them together.

As u can see the part that is deepened in still can see the cement and the seam lines....really disgusting and not to my perfectionist standard so get some extra part from MSG Kotobukiya and glue it on to the hole!

looks much more better and easy to cover up the flaws.

Ok continue my Zudah!

The big Jupiter boaster at the backpack does come with some molding line on it! So as usual i will scratch them away but if u dun touch up later u will see those scratches so for those tat dun plan to paint or just scratch build becareful loh!



Now the head part! We start with the horn part.... they are also other choices for the head part (it come with the normal grunt head and the test type head) but i will choose the commander type! Since with a horn it looks more cool.

The original look!

Sharpen the horn and cut off the extra bits on the horn, and u will get better result

Now tat looks better! For those that r doing any Zaku type Commander mecha, u must do the above to make ur mecha cooler! Mono Eye Rulzzzz

Although i did mention i am not gonna paint the whole thing but there are sometimes certain part u really need to do some little painting but for me there is a lazy way!

So wat i am talking now is we must touch up the mono eye! Mono eye is the soul of Zeon! Why i am so desperate to paint it now not wait till finish the whole kit! The reason is later on i will used plastic cement to glue the Zudah head in order to close the seam line gap, but by doing so i cant remove the eye from it anymore!

This is the Tamiya Acrylic Clear Red, I want to used Mr Hobby one but i just notice tat i dont own any! Anyway dun care wat remember to used Clear Red paint so the Mono Eye can still remain transparent (but in red color of course)



Next upcoming will be fixing the whole head and the arm set of the Zudah!
