recently i just bought some GAIA gold color to do experiment, they said this GAIA color all have fine particles and very good for gloss surface (especially ppl building car model)....so i might as well tried it out since it is bigger in bottle size and cheaper compare to all other brand!

polyster putty is nice to use, nice to sand.
but have to be careful when using it.
1. it's smelly and it's toxic
2. dry sand will coz dust flying all around, and it's really dusty

Tamiya polyster putty come with green in color
Mori-Mori polyster putty yellow in color

there is industrial grade polyster putty at local hardware store. they use for car chassis.

any idea where to get those hobby polyster putty?

hey guys, i've gotten myself a bottle or Mr Color paints, thing is it dries too quickly for any handpaint work. so how do i thin em down? i've tried normal thinner, but it just dries up too quickly also? can i actually just pour thinner into the bottle of paint to make it thinner? or is there another way? thanks in advance smile.gif

I just bought my first MG, a Zaku Minelayer and plan to paint it using Tamiya Spray Paint. I'm having trouble figuring out the right color to use for the Zaku Light Green parts. Any recommendation?  icon_question.gif

I notice the decal for the mono-eye is pinkish... how do i color the mono-eye red while maintaining its transparency?

for zaku i think u just used sand paper to sand the surface and then go on with a layer of Flat Topcoat will even look better than the Tamiya Spray can color! Belief me you will be surprise of how accurate the colors are for those mono-eye frm OYW. No need glossy green color tat will spoil the theme.

since u ask here... just buy those grade at least 1000 or more... it will help u kill off the glossy plastic color of the kit and make the overall color dull.
