QUOTE(fyire @ Oct 14 2007, 03:26 AM) Ergh.. that sucks. Actually, the spray is not exactly wrong, I suspect its more to do with how u spray it on. I see. 12 inch eh... tat kinda waste... Its likely that u held the spray too close to the model. Those spray cans has got a pretty high velocity, as well as a high volume output, so u need to hold the can from at least 12 inches away. This' why I tend to regard those spray cans as rather wasteful, but well, if u dun have an airbrush, then no choice lar... |

QUOTE(300078 @ Oct 29 2007, 05:00 PM) Those are not putty but are primer! Putty usually for filling up gaps primer, where can i get those?Mr Cement is the glue tat used to combine 2 plastic together! It melts the plastic and then combine the 2 plastic together! I used it to close up gap between the plastic! what about those people who modify their gundam with add parts and so on? what material they use?

QUOTE(br0ther9630 @ Nov 19 2007, 09:17 PM) 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? i guess it's ok and not expensive la.in your opinion is it worth forking out the money for gundam markers? well... for ur example, they will blend but u can avoid em by apply another layer. Question from me. Is there anyway to ship mr.hobby spray can to my place? T_T kuching no one sells and i cant afford AB. I know through ship can but HOW? |
