Not new to modelling but still a noob. When filing down nubs I noticed that the plastic where the nubs were are slightly discolored. I tried different ways of cutting part off sprues but still the problem persist. Is this common?
I’m also relatively noobish but I just use nippers then clean it up with a hobby knife. This had very slight discoloration on colors but is very noticeable on the dark red and blue found on the RG RX-78-2 and the navy blue on unicorn gundams.
Thanks Nik. I guess wheb you budf it out it is really not that bad.
If you don’t like the discolouration but don’t want to paint the kit you can always use a gundam marker that matches the plastic’s colour colour. You can get them in sets of colours that match a certain gundam series’ colours on HLJ
