You can always handbrush the paints onto the piece for the eyes if you’d like. You can try and brush both colors onto the piece and hope you have a steady hand or you can brush the clear color you want onto the whole piece (make sure it is lacquer). After this is done, you can brush on the black paint (Acrylic) then once the paint has dried, you…[Read more]
…You can use gundam markers if you choose, there is a green eye color and of course black for standard gundam eyes, gonna try using some acrlic paint for a gouf’s eye but debating on getting some plastic sticker jewels instead provided they fit.
I do mine the same way as baui except i use clear acrylics with black enamel on top. Then some paint thinner on a qtip to clean the black off the raised areas. Its called a reverse wash.
I do it the way Ace mentioned. Put down silver paint, and put a clear color over it. Proceed to put black enamel over the part. I did it free hand before, but this way is easier.
Thanks. I’ll be completing one kit per month. Next up RG Char’s Zaku and then the RG Zeta. Wanted to pick 2 more kits to add to my collection. Maybe MG Sazabi Ver. Ka and the MG NU Gumbam Ver. Ka.
Oh no I meant that I haven’t modified it yet to fit an LED. I was planning to but might do it for my next build. I think only some of the newer MG’s have a small chamber for LED support built straight out of the box. Sorry for the confusion.
Nah, i don’t think they will release a MG Zaku Amazing and replacing a classic Chars Zaku, and the Zaku Amazing wasn’t shown in Gundam Build fighters for very long as the crimson comet has now moved on to a kampfer amazing, aaaaand that kinda got destroyed, i think he’s gonna be getting a new gunpla.
Furthermore, don’t you think there’s not gonna…[Read more]
duuude nice man, i just got back into gunpla as well and i wanna take and post pictures of all my unopened boxes as well, but unfortunately I’m in boarding school and all my good stuff is at home in malaysia atm. 🙁
i like ur tastes, the RG zeta, RG rx-78-2, the zaku 😀
I kind of hope that RX-78-2 is the only 3.0 we get for a while, because there are still a lot of kits that still needs a 2.0 (Guncannon, GP01 and etc.)
I can imagine a zaku 3.0 for bandai to turn into a zaku amazing but apart from that I think we won’t be seeing one for a while.
As for 2.0s, i’d prefer to get a new release of a non existant kit than a remake of a pre existing one.
Unless of course the original kit was awful for some reason (no matter how much I love you, I’m looking at you mg unicorn).

They would need to miss out on Strike since we already got a RM ver. Need we need more strikes? Maybe a year or two then we’d probably see a 3.0 strike.
