Beginner Modeler – Modeling Competition 2013. 9 years, 4 months ago My 2nd WIP of MG 00 Qan[T]’s GN Shield! It’s Saturday so I have all the time to finish this in a day. I really enjoyed making this part and was really excited to show it to you guys. Again, it’s all gloss and matt topcoat + decals + panels. You’ll see more action from this when I complete the kit and with all the nice poses I have in mind. *Drool*

Dude, that is epic. Are those decals rub transfer? It’s Saturday you say? I thought it was Sunday.
LOL I got disoriented. Yes it was Sunday when I made this. Thanks man! My kit’s slowly coming to life. Those are water slide decals. I didn’t use the rubber transfer and the foil sticker.
I see. I’ve never used water-slides before, but I hear that once you use them, you can’t go back, haha. Have you tried using the rub transfer? Those take quite a bit more work, but produce excellent results. I would stay away from sticker decals as much as possible, though. They tend to stand out a bit. Unfortunately, using sticker decals is inevitable on my kit, haha.
I like water slide decals especially when you use a mark setter it’s like you hand painted it yourself. It looks clean and you can’t see the borders unless if you really look closely. Haven’t tried the rub transfers and I think I’m not gonna go back using foil stickers anymore. I’m getting used to the water decals.
Yep! Water-slides are great. Are you painting the eyes?
Nope I’m not gonna paint the eyes but I got luminous stickers. LOL! I actually don’t know how to paint the eyes that’s why i didn’t buy any paintbrush or paint. How do you paint the eyes btw?
Where did you get those decals? I’ve looked through my remaining foil, dry, stickers and water transfers and can’t find them. But I must say it looks incredible!
Hi! The water slide decal set was not part of the kit I bought. It’s actually a separate purchase but it’s still made by Bandai and specially made for this kit. You can search the net for water slide decals for 1/100 00 Qan[T]. Hope that helps.
Thanks I’ve found it. Didn’t know there are 2 water slide sheets. I’ve got the other one.
