Use a Gundam Marker on it to make it "disappear". It will be less evident, but it will still be slightly visible, when you see up close and under a strong light. That's what I do anyways.

u also can go to any ACE Hardware shop ( in MId V/ Ikea)..... get the ABRO Premium 18KT GOLD Spray Paint DORADO.... very very nice...

Warning:really big picture


anyone here knws how to translate those symbols?

thx

u could have resize the pic, it's too big..
i used to have a site that translate the symbols but it's gone alr..

anyway, it's not important to know what are they. haha

Did you tried with the ABRO Premium 18KT GOLD Spray Paint DORADO?
Mind to share any photos?

hi,i have a question to ask.after i use putty and sand paper on my model kits,what spraycan(like mr bright or topcoat)should i use to make the surface nice(or atleast cover the effect of sand paper) before i spary some color spraycan on it?

u seem to get the wrong idea bout topcoat... topcoat purpose is to give a finishing to the kit as a last step which is flat, gloss or semi-gloss...
wat u wan is.... after putty and sanding.. u'll nid to spray a layer of SURFACER/PRIMER to cover the scratches... it's grey in color.... then only u spray color on it... check the pinned threads for more information

ic.thanks for the info.it sure hleps alot.

here r the pics....hope u can see it.... (sorrylah,bit blur.... im using a 1.3mgpxl hp camera)[attachmentid=885991][attachmentid=885989][attachmentid=885988]

what kind of marker? i only have a panel liner. do i have to get every color?

i guess wat he means is... there is one way...
let's say ur part is blue... after cutting it out, the nip still visible so u use blue marker to color on top of it then rub it to make it not so "obvious"
this only works if the marker's color is similar to the part...
i dun really recommend becoz not worth getting the gundam markers just for tat...
gundam markers are for u to color the gundam kit and..... MG doesn't really nid much coloring anyway.....
since urs is Unicorn, purely white... ntg to worry about

this website is very useful...
Thanks a lot....

oic. hmm so u just leave the nips alone?

he did said using putty and sand paper so it means he know how to use it la..

yes... unless u wan to go to serious modeling..
which will be sanding the kit and repainted it...

there are alternative ways to get rid of the nip but it will be still visible...
use design knife to slowly cut the "extras" away...
1800-2000 grit sandpaper(this will leave scratches)
these are the few ways i can think of...

Ahh ok thnx for the help, i understand now lol.


Mr Metal Primer is to prime METAL surfaces, so that when u paint on metal surfaces the paint wont come off easily.

here is 1 example
