wnt to just buy spray cans to finish the backlog faster too. airbrushing is cheaper in the long run but time consuming with the cleaning :(

I find it too difficult to go back to spray can liao :s13:

Airbrush is just less messy, more controllable, less likely to get complaints from neighbours especially with spray booth :s13:

Source said the warehouse sale will start on 27 April.

Opportunity to increase your backlogs, everyone!

BUY FIRST, THINK LATER!

No leh, moi using simple mini air compressor, does the job including stuff like pre-shading.

Even some of the really good or competitive builders in SG still using those mini compressors and cheap AB to do their AB work

It's 26 liao, and also HAW sales again, some kits the pricing quite good.

Me, currently finish snapping Stylet waiting for time to fill seams and paint.

Also have a Frame Arms and a PAG (bootleg FAG) in my backlog.

Reseller anyhow mark up from the Japan box price mah. When people don't buy, clear stock at around japan box price and call it a sale.

The people who go Japan and see the discounted prices at BIC and Yodobashi plus the tax refund, really hope they bought extra luggage weight for the impulse buys.
