As i read here, cans costs around 20~30 bucks per can >< AB paint around 6~7 bucks nia. My place selling for 7.60. BTW guys, the price hike includes accessories and paint also ar? oh.. icic i didnt know got differences for paint. So which type of paint you guys normally use?... for painting the gold colour on virture cannon, and the metalic green on exia body and arms? i never try before, but i did spray Tamiya car 10 years ago

Handpainting and AB uses the same types like lacquer(oil-base) and acrylic(water-base) types. Spray cans are mostly for large areas then u use handpainting... for u situation, since u're new.. i would recommend u go for gundam markers 1st.. there are gold and metalic green markers available but u'll need to find them ermm... gold and metalic green markers?!?.. This sound really good!!!.. but metalic green will be hard to find for marker type. Added on April 10, 2008, 1:27 am QUOTE(MyKy44 @ Apr 10 2008, 01:16 AM) Ah.. I've AB for gold, so i can share abit my experience. For gold u have to spray alot of layers to really see the effect. I think i sprayed like at least 5 layers. Can refer to WIP thread and check out my WZC for metallic green here's the advice i got: 1. Prime as usual 2. spray silver 3. spray clear green There u have it bro.. me no expert lar.. spray silver then clear green? i never heard b4 clear green.. only clear spray got lar. will go hardware shop to ask about clean green Thanks for your advice. btw.. anyone knows where got sell metalic green handpainting? and what is AB anyway?
