Added on May 27, 2008, 12:26 amwalau hei i wan to ask ah... my painted skeleton of mg freedom joint parts' paint come out when i fix up the outer armour on it and move it... liao la now the whole paint part on the joint ruined ad... lol how ah?

This post has been edited by edwardgsk: May 27 2008, 12:26 AM

lol just now what i did is repaint the paint chipping parts and cover it with top coat lor... but as rayloke mentioned, i will try to wider the white outer armor parts that clam on the joint parts to prevent it from scratching each other tomorrow haha... thx yea...

maybe u should add somemore thinner into it to make it back to the oiriginal state?

can but ur hand will get bloody dirty frm that^^ if cloth then jialat lor cuz paint...

if thers web appear on ur model after u AB, it means your paint is still too pekat and need to add somemore thinner to it...

Added on May 28, 2008, 10:08 pmhow many layers of top coat should i spray on my mg freedom so the paint won't chips off? i use AB one not direct from the can cause the nozzle really sucks... (i spray the top coat into the small cup on the air brush then i spray on my kit like spray paint like that... please note that it's kinda thin...)

besides, can recommend any sites for air compressor maintenance tips?

Added on May 28, 2008, 11:02 pmguys, is that possible to mix tamiya acrylic paint with mr hobby thinner or tamiya thinner mix with mr hobby lacquer paint? if cannot may i know what will happen?

This post has been edited by edwardgsk: May 28 2008, 11:02 PM

dude i would like to ask about your line 2 and 3... in line 2, u say i cant possibly mix mr colour thinner with tamiya's ACRYLIC paints but in line 3, u say mr colour thinner can mix with ACRYLIC paints from both mr colour and tamiya brand.... both saying the opposite facts le...

so, which is true now?

toy city mostly sells tamiya acrylic color only... XL shop mid valley sell things damn bloody exp... if u want a great varieties of paint to choose, go to AF HOBBY Shop at Ampang... U can get all the tools + paints there... the boss is familiar with all the paints and tools so if u not sure u can get some recommendation from him...

fichtenfoo.com

by the ways... its an expensive method and u waste a lot of surfacer just for that...so think wise if u r a budgeted modeler...

well since it is a clear version then u cant sand it or else it will spoil the surface... just use hobby knife and trim it till smooth bah... thats the only way dude...

clear version freedom gundam.. nothing special about freedom's internal skeleton system le... all gray only... maybe u should get a clear version strike freedom... clear version looks god with golden internal skeleton system...

panel lining? for gundam? i recomend u to use 0.02mm gundam marker better la... easier and safer to use... gt mistake can correct some more...

hehe i tried once on my painted HG justice but the result doesn't turn out like what i wan la... the pressure very hard to control also... by the way... im currently learning it too haha...

300078,

theres a few methods for gold paint depends on your desire on what kind of gold u like...

1. if u like the old type of gold, get the mr color no.9...

2. if u wan darker gold, get mr color metallic gold no.217...

3. if u wan "1/100 oowashi/shiranui akatsuki" or "strike freedom full burst mode skeleton system" type of yellow gold, spray a layer of chrome silver on top your kit and then spray a layer of clear yellow on top the chrome silver layer but remember in this method, your yellow layer must be same thick every where or else the thicker yellow paint parts will have a darker yellowish gold comparing to other parts of the painted body... also remember to adjust the yellowness of the yellow by adding clear orange to make it darker...

add clear(no.46) to lighter the yellow but i don suggest you to do so cuz natural gold colour should be yellowish

the third method is tested by myself so it is proved to work but if u wan example pic for it then im sorry cuz i din do it on my kit, i help other people do... please try it on a runner for testing 1st before u do on your kit because it's not that easy... and remember to gloss the surface to make it nicer

aiyo i buy all the three types lor 30, 60 and 90 degree haha... hobby pen knife holder can switch the blade part without buying another handler de ma so don worry la cheap only la ...

well for those blades i gt 3 handles for every type myself cuz i very often switch between them de...

i use 30 for nip cutting cuz it have a longer blade cutting tip and it can cut nips more accurate compared to others...

i use 60 for scratching away the paint marker line for place which i don wan the paint to be at and make panel line drawing thinner on those unpaint parts and also cut nips sometimes... sometimes ...

i use 90(have very short blade cutting tip bout 3-4mm only) to cut decal after decal applied on those place which got seam lines which shall not be hidden away using putty(like freedom/strike freedoms' shoulder) or panel lines... it also can be use to make or deepens the panel lines so u can get ultra thin panel lines in some parts which have/dont have panel lines originally(own desire)

all of them are useful and u can get them for about RM12-13(Maped Creativ)... becareful cuz the blades rust easily if u touch it with bare hands so to clean the blades use tissue paper... if u rich get tamiya hobby knife as it wont rust but of cuz la cheapest i saw is about RM60-80 hehe ...

and by the way yamyinhao, dont use envelop knifes cus it isn designed to be use as a hobby knife as the knife is loose and cutting is never accurate at all ... get urself a Maped Creativ hobby knife at bookstore like popular or thai kwang...


.......and guys, to fix seam lines mr putty is best so far... putty the seam line then stick together both pieces then cut and sand the seams till smooth then straight surface once or twice(if u r very cho lo or very unlucky) then smooth liao then can paint ad la... no nid much work de la... see my MG freedom in modelling gallery... i din surface to check the seam lines also cuz mafan la btw in hurry also so juz putty then cut and sand till very smooth then straight paint ad without surfacer... easy and as good as those with surfacer to check for seam lines...


these are just my experience so good luck trying it:thumbs:
