The easiest method would be of course to buy the normal version instead of the animation version, that is if you can still find it.  tongue.gif

If not, you could try using several layers of flat/matte topcoat over the animation version. That should reduce the shine.

There are usually 3 types of topcoat: flat/matte, semi-gloss, and gloss. The one you're looking for is flat/matte and here's how it'll look like after application:

I hope it gets here soon.

Thanks a lot for all your help, you'r most kind.

You're welcome.

And excellent choice on the CR-HOGIRE! rclxms.gif

But i'm rather curious, which version did you choose?
1) CR-HOGIRE
2) CR-HOGIRE Noblesse Oblige
3) CR_HOGIRE Gunmetal

The "normal" version, I would rather have gunmetal version but it wasn't available and I don't like the Noblesse Oblige so much, those shoulder cannons look like wings to me wink.gif

They're not compatible.

The Gundam's action base connects at the groin area, so you could put some AC kits on it but it won't be stable unless you modify it.

To quote one of our moderators:

I don't really know what did you do wrong. Maybe you sprayed too much on just one area? It should be a clean and fast spray all over the kit.

Here's a very good tutorial on topcoat application from HobbyHovel

And try posting some pictures in the Modding Thread and ask the gurus there how to solve your messy white colour spot problem.

I'll be checking that thread as well icon_rolleyes.gif

Hello all....

I'm still waiting for the package to arrive, unsure.gif I'm trying to avoid buying a second model kit until the first one is here but it is taking too long and I'm getting anxious.

Next time I'll choose fedex, and avoid buying something during the holidays.

Bro, where you bought it? From Japan? Why's it taking so long?

And wouldn't Fedex cost a bomb? blink.gif

Yes Japan, I don't know why, I guess is the holidays, because I have 4 packages missing, 3 of them coming from the US (1/6 figures), and all of them where sent to me during the last week of the year, another package that was sent to me at early january is already here.


According to HLJ website, Fedex cost si even cheaper than EMS. unsure.gif

That's weird.

You better check with the customs if they held onto your stuff and couldn't or forgotten to contact you.
