so the water slides, worth it. No reaction with the vinegar on the clear plastic. Using toothpaste on the gate marks, great result. The surface “clouding” that comes with…
@thebanshee13 yeah its getting chilly up this way plus less than a month till comicon so its really time to work only on the Sazabi. My girlfriend just pointed out that i have built 4 RGs (5 if you count this one) since i have started the Sazabi so yeah i gotta finish. @corn-wizard yeah the clear parts on this kit are MUCH clearer than the Zeta…[Read more]
just put a little bit on a cotton swab and rub into the “cloudy” parts of the clear plastic. Let it sit for a few minutes then wipe it clean. takes away almost all of the surface scratches from cleaning up the nub marks on the clear plastic. I might have to film this method as well and add it to my “vinegar for water slides” video.
So the release for the MG Blue Frame D is getting close and of course the P-Bandai exclusive Dragoon Formation base. For those who have seen the display in person at the various shows, can anyone speculate or confirm if it will work with the Dragoon System for the Strike Freedom? I’m looking for an alternative to the lame clear bendy tubes setup…[Read more]
@Cthulhu i took your advise on the brown color for the panel lines on the gold frame. Thnx for the idea cause i think it looks much better now that its not so prominent. lemme know what you think
You’re welcome. It looks better now. With more brighter brown colors you can achieve an even subtle shading of the panel lines. You are on the right way.
Humble beginnings of my Strike Freedom Clear Ver. lemme know what you folks think about the panel lines on the frame. I’ll be working on this one very slowly and only while the paint is drying on my Sazabi build
Interesting thought, i’ll give it a try and post it later on. I was thinking about it all day and i think it will look better than the black. A little more subtle
There are so many gundam shows with anniversaries It’s so hard to guess what bandai would make. I am more interested in a ZZ MG ver Ka. or a 2.0. Who knows it might be a 35th anniversary surprise for Zeta!
I feel like at this point, it would be very difficult for Bandai to disappoint me in what they release next. However, I agree these would be nice additions to the RG line!
I usually do the detailing work as i build, it lets me get more detail work on the inner frame and some of the hard to reach areas. It takes me a little longer doing it that way but i feel its worth it. My build of that kit took just under 37 hrs to complete. I hope your build comes out the way you like.
