[Noctilucence]

I usually buy my markers from Japan when I order kits from online stores. Usually around 2$ per marker which is cheaper than here..

bro which site shipping so cheap? share share...i also use markers. here selling at 3.5 to 4.5

Thanks! Still waiting for the decals to make it look even nicer. This is a great kit to build with good details and articulation compared to the hg aile strike I previously build which looks bad.

Hlj and amiami. About 160yen per marker which is ard 2sgd. But of course you need to pay shipping so best to stock up a few when you buy kits from them.

Hi, which model are you using and what model you recommend to get?

I see some have dual piston or with additional tank, guess these features must have quite a significant difference?

What's the difference for dual action air gun from single?

i recommend the oilless single piston with tank. There are many reads on single vs double action. go google it. i personally recommend to buy the set from airbrush.sg, Then move on to hobbymate, wave, rich airbrush as these have brands and has parts available in sg if needed

 

[holyark]

cool.. thanks for the explaination

 

[ultimatron]

hi holyark,

personally i would recommend u to get a good compressor right at the start if u are willing to commit, dont waste unnecessary money by buying lousy one and change to a better one in future. speaking from experience
