Anyone went to the Gundam Expo event?
Remember last time is full event space of Takashimaya, then go to NEX, then Compass One.

Now only occupy half of the event space of Compass One.

Like very sad like that.
Ok lah, still got a lot of people buying.
Scalpers I don't know through, but I hate those scalpers.

Nowadays I agree with the experienced modellers and shop owners that younger generation people especially GUNPLA kit builders always like to ask stupid questions and waste peoples time. Just look at this thread.

ask this ask that, but don't try.

everything follow textbook but never even try.

why don't you try first then ask?

Altho his question is quite obvious, but i dont necessarily think that he is wasting ppl's time. He bought the kit and materials, asking how to use it coz he nvr use b4 as he need assurance since he is beginner.

Stupid qns are those who asked but nvr move on to action like nvr buy the kits/materials in the eyes of shop owners. I would say nowadays more ppl are arrogant and unwilling to share/teach compared to last time.

Thats why the community keep getting smaller rather than expanding. Typical Singapore, nothing reali felt heart warming at its core.

That's the problem with young people and GUNPLA builders.

why need to have assurance to try when you already bought the materials?

dun dare to try and have failures and so sheltered. Thats why GUNPLA builders are not artists these days. Only know how to use masking tape and mask and paint. these days they don't even need to clear seamlines.

Why don't they try already then post the pics here?

community can only grow if u learn the proper basics

I think you have forgotten u once fresh and young.

Why need assurance & guidance? Becoz young ppl got budget limit, not everyone can keep buying bottle of diff type of paints, materials to keep trying. Altho practice makes perfect and the knowledge helps a long way so it benefits if u can adventure wif different stuffs.

But hey! As long as everyone is having fun building gunplas, why need to care abt outcome. Its the process that is memorable and fun.

For me, it will keep the community big & alive as long as ppl are building and buying stuffs. Dont dunno why you need to put on ur artists glasses to judge ppl....too much ego.
