Hi everyone, I'm new to gunpla.

I have bought two MG:

1) Zaku Custom Lunamaria Hawke (3 x 5 x 9 inches)

2) Shin Musou Gundam (23.23 x 25.59 x 16.14 inches)

Recently I saw a gaming shop stocked up on Model Display Box for Gundams, need all the Gurus here for advice on whether the display box can fit them?

Here are the measurements:

Gunpla Accessories VT040 - Model Display Box with RGB LED [21.5cm x 21cm x 26cm]
Gunpla Accessories VT043 - Model Display Box with White LED [20cm x 20cm x 25cm]
Gunpla Accessories VT046 - Model Display Box with White LED [20cm x 20cm x 35cm]
Gunpla Accessories VT047 - Model Display Box with White LED [20cm x 20cm x 20cm]
Gunpla Accessories VT048 - Model Display Box with White LED [20cm x 20cm x 30cm]
Gunpla Accessories VT049 - Model Display Box with White LED [20cm x 20cm x 40cm]

Went for straight build? This tool will be hard to control might accidently sanded more area. Suggest get tamiya sand paper or 3m sanding sponge as both will have finer sanding mark. Start from 600>800>1000>1500 sanding grit, then end with tamiya polishing Compound red > blue should be enough for fine finish.

Suggest apply matte coat as it hide all most visible imperfection biggrin.gif

Apparently none here that offer that service. Do you happen to know what is a good setup for a small room? I was also told that I should only use acrylics because it's safer since I dont have a air filter?

Do you have any airbrush+ compressor to recommend?
