Thanks @philliptan! Gonna be a while I think before I go with a PG. While I want a Strike Freedom PG I want to do that kit in MG form first just so I have something to go off of.

@philliptan you ever consider doing a tutorial on your gundamarkering technique? Your technique always produces great results.

You manage to snag the Zephyranthes too @philliptan? I decided to go with that one and will pick up the Full Burnern a bit later. Kinda went on an RG spree with the Freedom, Justice, Skygrasper and the Zephyranthes in my next shipment from the warehouse. Lol!
-
Nope bro @superxvegito, I decided to get only the Full Burnern cos of the boosters… Love RGs, no doubt abt that!

Looks awesome Bro! Well nubs are to be expected with that kind of coating,. 🙂 but yeah, little touch ups would do. 🙂 I was just going to ask you if your going to join the contest and here it is already got the answer. Lol! Planning to join to but I haven’t decided yet to what am I going to build. Planning on joining the Beginners Category too,.…[Read more]

Coming along great there @philliptan! Was it difficult removing the nubs on this kit?

Nice picks for only 3 gunpla @philliptan! Lol! Which are you thinking of doing first?
-
Thanks @ultragundam and @superxvegito!! @superxvegito, probably none of the 3 cos i still have a lot of other kits! 😛 Probably the RG GP01fb after my megasize chrome RX78-2

LOL! @philliptan, quite expensive but yeah half the price wasn’t really bad at all. Kits like that are hard to come around. Seeing that got me into thinking to get the Regular version. Haha! Nah, I think I’ll pass for now. I’m preparing my pocket for two MGs, the RX78 ver. 3.0 and the Wing Protozero, can’t wait til October for its release.

@philliptan, Wow! That’s a really nice buy., looks really good! The 1/48 scale Mega Size Special Coating Ver.
-
@projectx1125, yea this is definitely my favourite buy. Of cos I had to pay a premium for it and luckily I got it at half price of S$289 abt US$230 (U.P. S$579). This is more expensive than the PGs that I bought from Taiwan. But totally worth it cos i love it to death!
-
I would imagine that if genteikits.com had it, it would probably cost me more than USD$500! 😛 LOL
-
Well, at the moment I’m debating on this or the new Zoid their releasing on Dec.

Nice @philliptan! I really like the shield this guy has.

@philliptan told me how I won’t be able to get the wings to hold steady like the ones on the box and in the booklets, and boy was he correct… These might be my last photo of my Wing Zero Custom… At least for now.

@philliptan HI do you think this air compressor is good for starter like me ?

any recommend for me ? not very sure on the airbrush @@-
Sorry, sis… I don’t own an airbrush nor an air compressor so I can’t advise you on that. But I have heard advice that the price would be a good indicator of the quality. A AUD99.90 air compressor will PROBABLY give you problems. Also, maybe it’s just me, but I get rather suspicious abt products that are named “Professional”. Probably means it…[Read more]

Thank you Philip ! I’m a bit worried myself :S

@Philliptan, I saw the astray gold frame for $34.95 today at the local hobby shop. I should’ve bought that.
Maybe next time I go there if it’s still avail, I’ll buy it.-
Lucky you @bode76! I’ve been searching for it for 2 yrs. It was on Open Orders at HLJ for the last 6 months or so. HLJ just managed to get some stock for it and I shipped it straight off LOL… I have all the Astray frames now… for these Non grade 1/100 at least. Bunch of other sizes for the Red Frame of cos.

Have fun @philliptan.
I went to local hobby shop in Newcastle today to get supplies. Prepare for painting the MG Sinanju Yellow Chrome also going to work on the PG MK II so I stock some cans of Spray paint.
I just found out that Alclad is more expensive than Tamiya Spray, so my airbrush will still be in a box, brand new hahaha. I’ll use it one day. -

I second this idea! I’m always impressed with what some people can do with just some Gundam-Marker.
Yeah @philliptan, do a tutorial. Go Go Go! Share the talent! LOL!
Thanks guys @capcanfire, @ghostquanta, @superxvegito, @corn-wizard and @projectx1125, you guys are too kind!! I’m just a beginner who doesn’t even paint! Not too sure how to show this technique using just pictures… Hmmm…
I think to sum up quick is this…
– Shake shake shake and then shake some more.
– Make sure the ink is REALLY flowing. Pump the tip a few times if you are not getting enough ink.
– And the key point is SPEED. Focus on a small area at a time. Start gundamarkering in vertical strokes downwards from left to right.
– Cover the piece within a few…[Read more]
Thanks for the tips @philliptan. Will give it a shot on some of my extra parts I got lying around. I assume to be completely dry you would suggest 24 hours?
@superxvegito, bro… 4 hrs or so would do.
Thanks for sharing your methods Bro! Really a big help! 🙂 @philliptan
No worries @projectx1125! Hope this helps
