Gunpla YT Community 10 years agoHowdy, im planning a few things for my channel before it goes up…but tell me, since most of it will be those hard to find models (mostly recolors) would…articulation checks be necessary?

I tried the original build booster (from the build strike full package) and from what I saw I THOUGHT the twin peg (as what the manual shows for the hg wing) would work with anything with a twin peg backpack, as […]

Q/A & Help Group 10 years agoHowdy, got yet another question!
So I got the 1/100 metal gear rex on pre-order…the black version, then I realised…
How the heck do DO panel line this!?
Yes, I’d like to retain its originals colors, don’t think typical grey or black would work…would I have to make a custom enamel wash color/white?
I’ll just be glossing then matte’ing the…[Read more]

White or a silver/gunmetal if you want to go more subtle perhaps.
-
Gunmetal…interesting, thanks!

normally a panel line darkens the line to give the impression of a deeper recess course you can’t do that if things are already black. so normally you’d just ignore it, but with the entire kit being black that’s probably not so appealing of an option. However if you just want to bring attention to the line as a detail then as suggested white or…[Read more]

Hi…bit late but there was no information, latest big kit is the hg neo zeong which is priced as a pg but size wise its bigger, and the blue frame was an onloine exclusive with a bazooka rather than a chromed katana so…yeah, not much on the pg front im afraid :S

…and incase you have a hard time telling the silver bits apart from the gun grey the silver is currently on the head crest, vents and inside the cannon on the waist (the outside needs consideration as well, i thought purple but unsure if too drab :S) and the neck piping.

…I don’t use primer (YET) but if it helps under where the silver was it was bare plastic matte coated.
It was a kinda cold day for the climate (although i added some coats the next day which was warmer but bare in mind neither were extreme nor did i take note of the temperature).
Would the scopes be ok as they are now, or should I gloss…[Read more]

well the problem with not using primer is that primer is actually specially formulated to stick better, or in other words to prime the surface, hence the name, the topcoat you’re using as a base coat is not and so just like the silver paint it can be rubbed off sometimes.
As for the scopes if it already has a nice gloss to it which it probably…[Read more]

Forgot to add, the paints were all tamiya, clear green and chrome silver, was using acrylic over acrylic wise, I used 2-3 coats of silver before 1-2 of clear green and just one of silver would pull the silver off even after an hour :S)
-
how you did things seems to be fine and I would not matt over anything that’s meant to shine, matte will kill that.
For the silver peeling off, did you put down a primer first? also paint isn’t fully cured even if it seems completely dry, and can take a lot longer than an hour, infact depending on your climate a full day might not even be enough…[Read more]

Now I’ve recently completed a hg silver bullet, and I got a few PAINT related questions as I used this guy as a test subject…

*Used acrylic paints to minimize sticker useage and to accent it a tad
*matte finish was from a spray canNot sure how in the…[Read more]

Depends on what the paint is, tamiya comes in many kinds, acrylic enamel and lacquer, I use acrylic which works with water…but advised to use acrylic thinner (I got it mixed up, there is water based acrylics but I don’t think this tamiya is :S)
Not sure about the gaia paints, once you find out what they are you can use the appropriate thinner…[Read more]

The hg neo zeong IS GONNA BE THE TALLEST ever kit, but from what I heard the dendrobium’s length is longer (can’t confirm LOL) than its height but provided the detail is really high this kit will be amazing

there is also amazon, at the time was the cheapest solution to getting the hg unicorn phenex.
I also scour japan only shops and sights, I use a proxy service because I lack friends in japan, good for finding rare ones at semi decent prices…I say semi because you gotta pay shipping TO them, THEN BACK to you.
And of course commission…

I know others are bound to feel differently about this, but personally… I just think the “articulation check” is just a real waste of time in any video.
Sorry for late reply, I felt the same, I might skip them on models where they are just re-colors, cheers!
