Can anyone share on those masking technique?
Currently I am spraying on a fake SD strike, but is kinda of hard when dealing with masking....... Can I use those normal masking tape instead of those branded Tamiya (is way too expensive for me)? And how u guys do when dealing with small area spraying? Thanks. |

QUOTE(StormV @ Aug 7 2007, 05:06 PM) i always prime my kits with AB, no clogging problem for me. I will use 1000/1200 primer, then thin it with Mr-Color thinner 1:1 ratio. Then wash it immediately after usage using industrial thinner. The spray can is too smelly and very waste. Will the primer become too dilute if add in 1:1 ratio thinner?if u can afford try to get a 0.5mm single action AB specially for priming purpose. btw, here is what a chalk pastel look like.  and here is the weathering product by Tamiya..."especially" for model kit.   And by the way, how much is that chalk pastel and also Tamiya branded one? Can share the price here? Thanks. |

QUOTE(zheyuen @ Aug 7 2007, 11:28 PM) sand paper wad grade best aa? spray booth? dun have wo...mask thn ada...but i do it outdoors...wont die ho? lol I have bought a fake SD before.....tqtq ... And of course, it doesnt fit well also...... But what I have done is try to cut the connector area (what do you all call those? the male and female socket to connect two parts together) to make it thineer to fit into the hole...... But remember not to cut too deep or too hard, then you will break the whole connector, then u will need cement later on....... Probably not a good way, but just some sharing...... |
