They are having a Japanese Anime(?) Fair until 25th March. It's at B1!

I went on Wednesday, and I did saw some Code Geass kits. All from Code Geass Akito the Exiled iirc.
I think I saw Alexander Akito Custom, Alexander Ryou Custom Early and Alexander Reira Custom. I forgot the price though.

There is a postal service in ikebukuro. Not sure whether there's a branch in akiba. Note that their postal charges are pretty high ($50+ for 2-3 MG sized boxes)

Otherwise can be cheapskate like me and go buy a big china-bag for the flight. Most airlines quite ok with extra luggauge if it is not too heavy.

If you spray too thick then it will be like spray can lor. Best is to mask off the pegs. Details wise usually quite safe cos I thin the paint a lot. But for faint details I'll scribe them abit deeper before painting.

If you use a better compressor might be better though.

So this can't be used for metallic paint cos of the pressure not enough? If dilute the metallic paint too much, means you need to spray a few more layers?

 

[Jhyun]

Yup but not only does it choke a lot (maybe use 0.5 airbrush better) but also the metallic doesn't look nice. Maybe it's just my skills

No worries bro. Thanks for the feedback, thinking of getting the same set with the S-130 air brush to try out. No space for big and expensive compressors.

 

[xiaorazor]
