A quick build while sick in bed. I am not exactly happy with the result, but I learned that I will never use Gundammarker for something serious. After first quiet good…
Don’t feel to bad, i literally just learned about two weeks ago the same hard lesson about gundam markers + top coat = disaster. I normally paint stuff but i did a quick SD Gundam for my daughter and used markers for some quick detail. Top coated it, and it all went to hell….
I was surely confused, cause i thoght it was quiet common, that people pait Details with markers, panelline and put a topcoat on it. Even a relatively ‘soft’ acrylic paint was enough to solve it.
Something shiny came today and it was nice to build something different besides the alltimeconsuming fox. The Musha Gundam MK II. Awesome kit, with two sprews of stunning…
HGBF 1/144 Iron Man Transient Custom Paint
I decided to try giving the Transient an Iron Man colour scheme, because, well, just look at that design! My favourite armours are…
Used a Dremel drill’s cutting disc to trim back the collar. But it still can’t look far up.It’s because the socket for the neck is too far forward on the head. Strange design choice, Bandai, especially for a model with a flight gimmick.
Hi guys, here I am with a new Gundam Graze, clean, no additional work, just as it is out of the box. It was the simplest model so far, took us just a couple of hours, but it…
Another model in the books: Zaku I Gundam Thunderbolts Version. I took my game up a bit by painting in majority of the details and only used marking stickers for the warnings (water slides tough to come by as we all know). Also did some basic weathering just to give it that extra rugged look. Enjoy…..
first go at a customizing a kit. i didnt like the 144 Z’Gok, its joints are flimsy and its a bit meh. so it became a piece of test plastic. although the pics don’t show it much the light and dark chrome came out alright…..then after the first attempt at painting i had to go i bit further
I am a 1:100 guy, but I like what BANDAI does with the RG line. The Z’Gok is one of my favourit suitdesigns but I dont like the colorsceme of it. The metal fits already much better and in combination with the LEDs it is more than shiny. I will get me the MG version of it some day. But I have no idea for it right now and alot of other stuff tu…[Read more]
the metallic finish isnt paint, i used this kit as a test for some powder stuff called c1 metalizer. i have a battlestar cyclon raider kit to do and then the british pound crashed so i thought what the hell, why not order some and give it a go. good effect, easy to use.
I bought something similar, wich is made for chrome and gold fingernails. Made some experiments with medium results but looking forward to the Gyancelots and Gyans I ordered to make shiny knights with it. Do you have some tips for the application? Or does it easily work on gloss black?
the recommendation is to be applied on gloss black paint however i have found that lighter plaint (as long as they have a glossy finish) come up with the lighter chrome colours. I have had no issues with masking and applying standard stickers, havent tried water or rubbing decals though. since its a graphite style buff finish i suspect painting…[Read more]
Nice and clean. I like the jetmode on this kit. No doubt an Endless Walz design, like the Epyon, wich was my first MG. Already well enginered MG kits expect of the shoulderjoints. But…it transforms..^^
Looks pretty sharp! I have one but haven’t build it yet… looking forward to it! You can improve the lining using panel lining next time instead of markers. Also if you like the lines to be filled instead of painted you can use any acrylic black paint without thining to fill them, let it dry and then remove the excess. Anyway… looks great!
Get well soon!!! Gute Besserung!!!
Thanks mate. I think I might be able to leave bed tomorrow.
