Shoulders totally finished and this kit is halfway done. The vinegar did its magic on the water slide and no sign of silvering. The colors are really coming together i think. Not sure if i want to start the weapons or the legs next…
No commercial products actually. Just a gloss top coat and I used white vinegar instead of water to loosen the decals. Lots of time and constant use of a cotton swab is required though. The large shoulder decal took 20-25 minutes of constant attention to come out like that. Then just a gloss top coat to seal it.
Hello gunpla fans. I’m Nacam’s Gunpla and today i’m going to show you my Mastergrade kit which is still ”W.I.P” Ladies and gentle men may i present Strike freedom,
Only one decal remaining to finish up the shoulders. It is the big S-01 that sits over some serious ridges on the left shoulder, so i’ll be doing that one tomorrow with some white vinegar as a decal softener.
this is looking great! i love the look of this kit, have you painted it? or is it straight from the runner? as i love the blue colour. Good Luck with the rest of build 🙂
Im so close to finishing the paint and assembly on these shoulders. I really am shocked at all the movement in the shoulders, although it really extended the painting time on these pieces. I hope to have them ready for a clear coat and water slides by the end of this session
Thnx for the compliment on the colors. My girlfriend worked for a long time trying to figure out a wild color scheme and she really did pick a winner it seems.
#WIP: I’ve been really busy with my MG Destiny this week! The beautiful sunny weather here in England and it being a summer holiday means I can really get on with the painting…
great job! i was planning on doing the same 2-tone RG style with my MGs. not very fond of the mostly white color schemes. good to see it will look and work great with the MGs as well 🙂
Again, awesome paint job. Looks really great. Very nicely done, the two tones on one piece of armor. A very good masking job I have to say.
Also like your color choice, but the color choice for the V fin is spot on!
Now I’m so curious on the selected blue color…..
Ps, nice to know the weather in England is nice. On the other side of the pond…[Read more]
Aha Thanks Again 🙂 I am really happy with this English weather it’s rant that I can just crack on with painting the kit! I planned to follow the original colour scheme of the Destiny as close as possible so I’m grateful that you send the colours were spot on. As you know the blue is the hardest but I have some ideas… But you will have to wait…[Read more]
Hi Guys, thought I would share in what I am currently building. I’m in the process of building my MG Destiny Gundam… I’ve decided to do a custom painted build but in it’s…
Looks really great! Love the gold patches on the underside of the feet. It beaks the large silver surface. Hope you don’t mind me copying it somewhat on my MG Destiny…?
Got the Mr Color paints in today, now waiting on the airbrush from HLJ to arrive. The finally I can begin on mine and share some pictures with you.
Keep up the really nice job on…[Read more]
Thanks mate, really tried my best to bring out the detail of the inner frame and I’m really pleased with how it’s turned out the paint colours are amazing! Defiantly use the technique and ideas. I look forward to seeing how your destiny turns out! Good luck and speak soon
MG Aile Strike. So far have the legs done and coated waiting to dry so I can apply the water decals and seal everything. Next will be the feet and waist.
Dam that’s a great looking kit!
Man that’s a clean application of decals. Did you use mark softer or any mark setter when applying them?
