WIP-MG Destiny Build… Today my Mr Hobby Super Clear Gloss spray paint arrived, so I jumped straight in a clear coated the MS and Wings ready for decals(waterslides and dry transfers)! Then flat coat and then the last stretch…thanks guys
actually can i also ask how did u panel line it well wht did u use as ur guide to make the scribed lines so striaght rulers for me are getting pretty tough and annoying
Looking really nice! I’m finally getting mine done. If I speed thing up, we might be able to arrange a family meeting for the long lost twins. LOL. Are you going to do weathering on yours? Plan to do mine straight out of the factory. Hate to dull up the pearlescent paint mixture…. Thanks for your update
@thebanshee13, as i live in the UK paints are quite difficult to get a hold of (so i thought), so i used to get them all of off eBay, but then i found model shop called eModels who supply Tamiya and Mr Hobby paints which is brilliant and i don’t have to pay more for shipping or have to wait for weeks either. i can send you a link to them if you…[Read more]
@teetee580 Thanks, i’ve seen your WIP pics… it looks like it coming along nicely. As for weathering i don’t really plan on weathering it, i want this one to be a clean build (like its just come out the factory but might of had a couple of test flights) so i have done some subtle weathering and dry brushing in places (like around vents)- so i…[Read more]
I know it’s been along time since I posted a WIP on My MG Destiny build, but slowly but surely it is coming along… I’ve been very busy going back to my last year in school so it’s a very important year for me! Anyway… I’ve started painting the Wings and the Backpack – Plus anti ship sword and long canon! Again I used tamiya spray paints.…[Read more]
I would firstly like to see a MG Legend and Ataksuki, I know I say it a lot… But it’s the 10th Anniversary for Seed Destiny and I’ve been disappointed that their hasn’t been any ‘big’ releases from seed destiny this year.
I would also like to see in the future a 2.0 of the strike freedom, destiny, freedom and impulse.
I would also want a MG…[Read more]
Hi everyone, I’m looking at buying top coats for my MG destiny painted build… And I’m looking for both gloss clear and flat clear, tamiya spray paint. I’ve found flat clear, but however I can’t find a tamiya gloss clear I can just find pearl clear… Can anyone tell me if pearl is the same as gloss or different and where I can find gloss would…[Read more]
Pearl and gloss are completely different finishes. Gloss will leave it shiny, while pearl will have a glittery effect. It is up to you if that is the finish you are looking for. As far as where to locate it, best bet would be online and see if they can ship to your area.
@Ryu Shiro, I’m glad you like what I’ve done and I’m happy I’ve inspired you to use spray paints… It’s really not hard to get a good finish from them as long as you have patience and use the right techniques… As I learnt the hard way aha:) I used Tamiya TS AS And PS spray paints and I would defiantly recommend them haven’t had any problems…[Read more]
@thebanshee13 atm I’m on holiday in Spain… So I haven’t done anymore from my last WIP… So still have to do the Wings and Weapons! I will post updates when I get back and let you know if you want 🙂

@Ryu Shiro i agree! i wouldn’t mind a 2.0 Freedom and Destiny as i think that those kits are a little plain now… thats why at the moment i am re painting and detailing my MG Destiny in the style of the the RG Destiny and i think it just looks so much better than being plain. Plus i really would like the Legend and Ataksuki, plus the Justice!…[Read more]
