if some other logo..means have to be careful already..
all original gundam kits must have a red bandai logo on the box

those things call runner..or tree..or whatever people wanna call it

i dunno about others..i keep them..cause i keep the box..
those boxart are too nice to throw them away..so if you keep the box..then why not just leave all those used runner inside their original box right..

last time XL got this paper..very expensive..
sell in 5 piece A4 size..and only laser printer can use if im not mistaken

deja vu..cant help but to mention this word..

anyway..you only sand if you wanna paint..no paint then no sand..
use those craft knife to shave the cutting area..you dont pull those part out from the runner with bare hand..u use cutter for it..after cutter then craft knife..

can get this craft knife at art shop such as venus art at petaling street..cheap cheap.

so people also use nail clipper..i dunno about this cause i never try use it before..craft knife all the way for me

paint..i find that tamiya paint sucks..also make problem to my AB sometimes..lol

markers you can use..but make sure gundam markers..but markers result wont be that nice..of cause la.

like i said deja vu..there is not real tutorial on how to build your gunplas..you need to dig for it..research it..put some effort on it..uncle google is always there when you on your internet..the only thing i can suggest here is go to youtube.com..then search for 'gunpla'...all those video on those gundam masters will come out..and you can have a look on it..very helpful..again..deja vu..lol

remember.most of the time..first few project wont turn out to be nice one..practice make you perfect and experience makes your gundam look real nice..and you need to spend alot also to make you gundams nice..lol

paint, cutter, putty, cement, LED, plaplate, craft knife, thinner, brush, spray cans..lol
i hope i didnt scared you away already..

looks like plastic always can be help easly by using topcoat flat vesion. one spray..then taadaaa!!! no more shining plastic..

stick around here..and you got many tips from the forummers here

told you already last time to find craft knife from venus art petaling street
got all sort of craft knife there and all sort of prices..

3 types of topcoat..this also i already explain to you in msn..never pay attention meh

Gloss - make your kit looks shiny..more toy like effect
Semi Gloss - well..semi lo..not really that shiny..
Flat - make your plastic not shiny anymore and dull effect..the best topcoat for me

you use those hardware spray? lol
there is no replacement sold in malaysia..even in japan also got few shop selling replacement

this is why it is always recommend that you use only paint, spray can and thinner that are made specially for model kits..lol

i cannot see the pic

lol..i been there everyday..
nothing much..all those supermarket standard price of gundams kit..and this case..those toys are from metrojaya

nothing special also la..the contest also so so only..the only nice gundams there is from Eric Yap..really nice modded PG strike with a gunblade..lol

i can snap few later..lol

yea,..very pathetic..but not all..which one is jckk one?
wanna go see see it again later

i was saying that legend was nicely color..nice one bro

its more like ff gunblade..
and that modded PG strike belong to eric yap..sure win one..lol

because sometimes they use the same PC on other kits..
and sometimes they mark it 'X' on the building manual showing those parts that not in use in that kit

kindda old news..its not gone..it still there actually..
they move to behind lot a bit..slightly bigger...check the toy shops list thread..i already stated where they move..

the shop just beside the old one..but it also easly been miss as its a bit hidden

wait that bazooka..
you mod it or from other set..

no offence..but as for all the entries..

i mean..those who actually school kits its ok la to look not so..err..i mean not so good..like mg gyan painted with water color...lol..waste waste..

but for those college student..i mean..common..you guys go there study graphic design..then you come out with this kind of entries..lol..hint hint..the spider one and the hell-like hand one..

again..no offence..if i found my reply offensive..i will remove it later

most of freedom entries are nice..some even paint with hand and still turn out nice...

erix one exception..that one is a sure win no matter which angle you look at it..he not only putting effort on this PG..but most he really putting effort on all his work..all also are nicely painted and done
