Gundam Modeling Official thread - Part 5

[ExArchz]

Anyone knows where i can find a Gundam Exia repair I 1/144 scale? The one with a green canvas on one shoulder & one of the eye battle damaged. so far the ones i see in departmental stores are of the bigger size. Prefer a 1/144 scale version.

What you meant is the RG version? If it is... it is actually an exclusive. U will need the original RG exia and the Exia Repair 1 Option parts

Yes, but where to buy Repair 1 option parts?

 

[tissuepaper]

i think just buy from whichever is closer to u since the difference in price is not significant. as for variety of colors, hobbypoint without doubt wins

Hobby point stop selling tamiya enamel I heard.

should decals be applied first then weathering or vice versa ?
decals > top coat > weathering > decals ?
thinking if the weathering will affect the decals or not

 

[Jhyun]

Should be on decals first then weathering right? Imagine your kit weather until swee swee then you apply those clean virgin decals on... looks weird right?

Yes, but where to buy Repair 1 option parts?

As it is an exclusive now... u will have to go around and hunt for it. But if i do see 1 at a shop i let u know ba

there are 3 types of decal in mg. one is foiled, the other is dry-transfer. i assume the green/blue background is wet decal ?

how to apply this decal ?
i gloss coat a piece, soaked the decal for few seconds, peel off and stick on. flat coat it. but the decal line is still there.

how to remove this decal lining ?
or correct me if i am wrong.

thanks

Hope it helps

I'll be heading off to HK pretty soon.

Is there any recommendation for Gundam shops or airbrush shops?

Are resin kit worth it? I YouTube it and it seems resin kit are mostly mini status with not as much articulation. Is that true?
Would resin kits be good for airbrush practice?

According to the guide, Bandai stock waterslide decal might still have silvering effect. Does anyone here have similar encounter?

Where can I buy 3rd-party waterslide decals, for Sazabi or any other Gunpla, as well as metal kits?

For MG kits, is it still required to apply cement and then sand to remove the seams?

I used quite a few Bandai one no issue.

3rd party one i only know of samueldecal... but never use before

guys may I ask, today I went to HAG and wanna pre-order the PG Unicorn, only to realize HAG no longer issue any receipt for pre-order, only write down your name an phone number and the amount you deposit.

Is it how they operate lately and same to everyone? Years ago when I pre-order my PG Strike Freedom got receipt one...

(I didn't put down my money yet.)

Thanks yo.
