Ohhhh icic! Hmm does the glue make the surface of your parts uneven? I suppose it's as sticky as any glue right? How do you handle it?

Do you guys recommend Krylon Glitter Blast Diamond Dust?
Appears to be the only clear spray that produces the glittering effects.

Any idea whether its suitable to spray on our gunpla kits?

**As above, its sprayed on glass vases**

Apply beneath e part instead of on the surface. The item i show is a reference, I believe there are alot of glitter product available in bookstores and art n craft stores, use what you feel is appropriate and when in doubt, try the pdt on the unused clear runners to see e effect first. When it comes to modelling, no hard n fast rules, as long as it can achieve your objectives imho.

I'm wondering, what's the difference between gundam damashii and plastic model kits? Other than building yourself and size slightly different, what's the pros of owning damashii?

yup robot tamashii is more like an action figure collectible. gundam fix figuration and metal build is also similar

 

[Blusttoy]

Robot Damashii also features units that sometimes doesn't get produced as 1/144 model kits for niche collectors (Such as Strike Dagger, Xi Gundam and Guncannon DT).

They also feature re-styled proportions; slender, fiercer and minimalist, for the purpose of achieving dynamic look (see Obari pose) with a high degree of articulation,


The figures usually includes all the weapons and accessories of the unit, better joints to preserve the poseability of the kit (interlocking joints and metal rivets).

The downsides of the figures are, lack of panel lines or small details unlike the GFF cousins, scaled size may not be true to unit datasheet (Nu Gundam Robot Spirit is smaller than HGUC version), the flexible kits may make it hard to achieve stable pose without the use of a stand and the figures may yellow over time faster than plastic kits if stored incorrectly near sunlight.
