errm i think you misunderstood  the meaning of  electrolytic because I only can mimic but can't make it

plus : both also painted which 1st one on the left is direct use silver background  + gold but the right side i use silver background + clear yellow and both of them come out different terms of gold but i perfer the right 1 because is way better than plan gold  icon_idea.gif

why not? hmm.gif btw add the yellow would make the gold brighter hmm.gif

I'm not offended. Just that I've seen both of your discussion suddenly gone to the wrong path. richard suggested that Electrolytic Cell method maybe able to chrome the parts. Then you seem get the wrong meaning & said you can't paint your parts with 100% chrome effect. So I just try to pull both of you on the same track.

thanks for the highlight notworthy.gif

About the Strike Freedom FBM case, can't say Bandai con us for charging RM50 more for the chrome parts. For those who likes their Gundam to be more shinny then they can pay the additional RM50 for the chrome parts, or else just paint the normal Strike Freedom gold color to the near chrome color. We can only say Bandai con our money if Bandai only provide the gold color like silver + clear yellow with RM50 charge.

i think the flying effect on the funnels made up a more significant part in that RM50..
