Gundam Modeling Official thread - Part 5

[rollbread]

Just got this from tabao. Pity its not from Bandai.

Box is huge!

Maybe when I go jobless I will spend time on this.

Hi, can someone help recommend agent that you all frequently uses when buying from taobao.

 

[freakybird]

if thats the case then i'd rather u not take up their offer at all.. its just bait to get u to patronize their services even further.

If I just order 1 RG sky grasper and ship by SAL its around 25 SGD before the discount is applied. Rather decent price I would say.

Sure. Great info. Shall go for metal build one since the robot damashii looks off. I saw it at the docks recently. Shall search who selling the metal composites soon.

You sound like the guy I bought my starter kit at sunshine plaza the other time.

What guy?

U mean u don't agree?

 

[osirisx]

Anyone tried gloss coat for chrome kits?
will it tarnish the kit?

and also wet decals, will setter setter& softer tarnish the kit?

 

[Bryson]

Don't gloss over chrome. It'll make the finish less shiny unless maybe if you wet coat and polish it the clear coat but it's not worth the trouble.

The setter and softener wont tarnish. Use it sparingly and clean up as soon as you're done.

Guys, for the decals how do you all know where to paste? Or just paste anywhere you like?

the manual will indicate where to paste, u can also refer to the pics around the box.

But yah, theoretically speaking, u can paste anywhere u like.

 

[evilerniex]

decals can paste anywhere... up to ur own creativity.

maybe just be a bit more mindful of those arrows, 'caution' and 'warning' decals. these are to indicate danger areas such as outlet vents, thrusters, between panels etc. just take a look at real jet planes to see where are these labels are, to get some ideas.

but end of the day, own self happy can le, anyhow paste also ok one, as long as u are happy with the results
