QUOTE(Balthasar @ Nov 13 2007, 12:07 PM) Well its been almost a decade since i made any models... But i guess u mean weathering effect like dust and dirt and a lil rust ? I used to do that using pastel chalks. Did great for my panzer models with diorama. Sweet stuff as long as u don't hold it too often. Details like real but wears off easily. Applied on "painted" models with a thin brush...usually those tiny tipped ones...and the process is looooong After tat the model is basically a see-no-touch model But i guess a top coat won't do any harm besides looking a lil fake lor  i rmb last time ppl say the tamiya pastels can be replced with those art ones...how does it look like huh???

a question about gundam marker. i'm thinking of using gundam markers to paint my collection of sd. i heard that they are not so good due to the paint looking somewhat like water color paints. any gundam marker users here care to share their experiences?

hey guys,
Got a question, I just got myself some decals from HLJ.
I just realised the instruction mention about dipping the decal into the water then use a cotton butt to push it on the plastic.
Just wondering, is this kind of decal different from those that comes with MG ( where you just cut and then apply pressure to stick it on the plastic )
thanks guys
cheers

There 3 types of decals.. Glue, water an dry.

QUOTE(SWATwolf @ Nov 15 2007, 01:07 AM) SWATwolf: when you use your markers.. say using a blue color marker to color on a black color part, will the blue color show or would it blend into the color? in your opinion is it worth forking out the money for gundam markers?
