Sinanju OVA ver. or Ver. Ka? I’ve watched reviews and comparisons but I am still having trouble deciding which one I want to buy so I thought I would ask your guys’ opinions. Thanks

NOTE: Mexican Customs may require something called a “Sanitary Permit,” which must be obtained and provided by the customer.
I found this at HLJ.com in the section:SHIPPING COSTS, TIMES & IMPORT ISSUES
Don’t know exactly what this means, but I’m sure if you google it or ask a fiend you’ll find an answer

Bandai has some markers for panel lining. But any fin tip marker, panel lining wash. or even dilute your paint with thinner will work. HLJ has a great selection of the Gundam Markers, I use the black and grey fine tip ones.
I’ve been wanting to learn how to do this too! Should I put a gloss coat on first? What kind of paint should I use (acrylic, enamel, lacquer) for the gloss coat and for the panel wash? Thanks for your help!
I also use gundam markers since I don’t paint my kits. I used black mostly and just tried gray on my RG Exia. You can check my gallery to see what kind of effects you can get.
