Gundam Modeling Official thread - Part 5

It's the master grade. U mean after putting it together, I hv to paste the decals as well?

I thought it segregate the parts by colour?

The dry decals are those extra details, optional to apply.
Usually have the tendency to be half stick to the plamo, half remain unstick.

hobbypoint and OG may have also, but price not cheap.

and shenlong is from tv series, not endless waltz. the endless waltz version is the P-Bandai MG Altron (dunno y they call it Altron, shldnt it be Nataku? Altron shld have the scorpion tail mah)

can learn one mah.
just follow the steps in the instruction booklet can already.
for painting, clearing seamlines etc. there are many online tutorials and youtube videos that u can learn from.

if u dun want to build, then y not just get those fix figurine or robot damashi?

a proper commission job for building a kit is going to cost u a few hundred $.

i dunno leh first use still ok. then previous paint, thinking is paint too thick so add thinner but came out even diluted. think a bit too late to add white now. most of the parts are painted. now left to sand down the sprinkled dry paint then paint again.

there shouldn't be any difference in viscosity for different colour of paint, unless of course your blue is slightly dried up, so it's thicker, add more thinner should fix the problem.

if paint is too thick, you shouldn't even be able to spray out, it would probably cause "spider web" instead...

spider web happens to me only for primer. paint doesnt happen so often, usually chocked dry paint or over wet/diluted paint.

dont think so. though the first bottle left a bit, i mixed and appear too diluted. got another bottle to mix in. by right should be just nice.

blue was the last color. white was first and okay with it. next time i take note of the ab.
these days no motivation to paint sia
