all actually and like what spector said, too near will kana also...

too stingy and want to save paint will kana also
small parts where the mindset was "little bit can liao" n dont press the can hard enough and the paint just puke out unevenly

need to control.... need to control....
can't wait to see your rg freedom.. are you gonna use enamel panel lining for the panel lines? or use markers?

 

[Cleaver]

Aiki,

No bubble.

Think like what sliver have said , you need to control, or shake well, maybe your can is very old liao, or even the surface.

Can post pics?

 

[AikiBoy]

Aiki,

an post pics?

no pic for bubble even got also quickly rework before dry. i do layer now with lots of love for this RG SF and super slowly.

ya i do lost control and spray when I rush for completion.

how thick is that pic? very clean and smooth

[xfiles_wolvie]

Aiki,

For once not BLING...AND I RIKE!!!!

 

[piecewise]

no issues with bubble forming so far with tamiya paints.. sometimes it happens with those random hardware shop paints. the problem i think is sometimes the air pressure in the can isnt high enough, then if i spray it at the normal distance the paint won't even reach my part.. lol.

still working on my hlj sci-fi kit, hope can finish in time.

 

[rookierocky]

[Cleaver]

[aucheukyan]

i got one 0.5 brandless ab from keith@airbrush.sg that is an oem of my 0.3 hobbymate HM135 and also my 0.2 sparmax DH-102......

what you have or planning to get? if wanna start sparmax, rich or hobbymate is good, or you can consider keith@airbrush.sg or u-star.... if you going pro go gunze sangyo, iwata, badger or tamiya
