Can anyone suggest the best & fastest way to strip panel lining? I used the red gundam marker drip type for my rg zeta karaba. I did not like the outcome so i want to redo it using gray. btw iv’e done the panel lining it for about a year now and have lost my manual so as much as possible, I dont want to disassemble the kit. thanks.
sup guys! so i bought the theatrical release edition of the banshee & unicorn gundam, is there anything i could do to make it look more shiny/glossy? out of the box they look dull and flat.
think the standard reply would be use a really high gloss clear coat or future floor polish, but since these kits are clear I don’t really think you should do that so I really don’t think there is anything that you’d really want to do to them. clear kits are kinda tricky like that.
well i guess if u want u could give up the clear psycho frame and made a silver base over clear color to produce more shinniess but overall the idea of using gloss clear is not good ull fog up the clear color so dont do that

This is not exactly a gunpla modeling question but its still related to gunpla. What do you do with your gunpla boxes? do you keep them or throw them away? i’ve been keeping all of mine but im running out of room to store them.
I actually keep mine too, but only the lids. I sort of disassemble them so they get flat. Then I store them in a large PG box. This way I’ll have all the boxes, yet they take little room to store. Oh, and I throw the bottom sections out
So far kept all of my HGUC and RG boxes fully 3D as it’s nice to see them all lined up in order. As for MGs I have about half of them 3D and the other half just the flattened lids like @teetee580 ‘s ones.
Welcome to the hobby. You did a great job on the MK. II. If you should need any help or advice, leave us a post at the Q/A & Help section. Any ideas on what your next build will be?
thanks! currently building a HG Banshee Norn Destroy Mode theatrical version. having a hard time hiding some nub marks on the clear parts. ill be posting some of the other RGs ive built on this thread later. 🙂
lol thats just hard core! a trivia about this kit: if you will look closely at the backpack, you wont see the tubing. I accidentally threw the excess away after I did the ones for the legs thinking I wont be needing it anymore.
