Congratulation for reaching the 150th episode. I really like Kshatriya, but I want it in 1/100 scale. Do you think Bandai will release it under the new RE/100 grade?
Looking good there. I myself speed through this kit in two sessions. nice fun build and I think the clear purple and red triangles are a nice touch.. Now I gotta think about whether I’m going to dry brush it or not.
Thanks. This is one solid kit. Yes, the red triangles are cool. Bandai should do something like this more often.. and I really like the engineering of the ankle joint for the feet and the joint connecting the arms to the body. Well done Bandai!
I have a question. Is it possible to do preshading with spray paint? If yes, how to do it? I have access to Tamiya TS paints if this info helpful in making your suggestions. Thanks!
Spray cans don’t give you a lot of control. Personally I find it challenging enough even to try to paint a part with spray cans without putting too much paint on and getting orange peel or drips. That said, I’m sure it’s possible, just as it’s possible to sculpt with a chainsaw.
vegeta8259 did a tutorial for how to achieve post-shading effect using real touch markers:
Personally I prefer brushing an enamel powder (tamiya weathering master, etc) on painted surfaces/bare plastic.. The effect is cooler and you have more control on how the post-shading effect will turn out.
MG Strike IWSP. This was my first MG ever, a gift from my lovely wife. 🙂
This kit was painted, weathered, and lighted. Took few months to finish with long learning curve. Putting the LED was a pain. Maybe I will make a video review on it, explaining what I’ve done to this kit. Hope you guys like it.
