Oh wow, that is pretty nice to see. Yeah, they are a bit too thick here and there, but really it’s to get the idea of something one could do, just an experiment. Thanks for the share for those links tho, be happy to check them out.

Hello all!
Let’s start with a question: what do you know about sanding? You know, removing nubs and stuff. Something you wouldn’t associate with sanding is, well, sponges. And that is what we […]

I’ve been really interested in these figures for years. Thank you so much for sharing this, its very very informative! So a couple of questions.
What type of material would you recommend to make clothes for them?
Do the joints ever start to ware or loose?
and, what is the market like for these figures outside of Japan? Like I’d love to have a…[Read more] -

Zeroconvoy commented on the post, Tamiya Weathering Stick (Mud and Snow) 1 year, 2 months ago
So you can actually cut bits of it off, like on to an exacto. And yes, you can add plenty of detail to smaller parts. These 30 MM mission kits are smaller than an HG kit. As for transferring brushes and sponges. It is possible, especially the mud stick. However, it isn’t as bulky as it looks, try some on a spru or extra parts and see for your…[Read more]

Hello all! I hope things are going well for you in your part of the world.
Today, I bring you a how-to on Tamiya’s weathering stick.
First of all, what are these? Well, as the name implies, they are w […]

I’m in two minds about weathering. Yes, it adds a cool bit of realism in dioramas and such, but for kits just on a shelf… I dunno. This does look easy though, might give them a go after all.

Thanks for this tutorial. Please bring more of these tools and how to articles, maybe even videos. I’m going to try these sticks and I’ve just ordered them. Unfortunately, these sticks look a bit bulky and I wonder if you can add details to small parts (photo with the weapon where the stick has nearly the same size). Do the sticks offer the possibility to transfer the weathering powder to brushes/sponges to apply them or should the good old weathering kit be used for this purpose?

Sorry for the late reply, but about the tutorials — we recently brought on several new writers just for this, so you can expect to see more and more tutorial content 🙂 We’re not quite where we want to be to be able to do videos yet, but that’s also something we’re hoping to move back into in the future.

I know the cutesy Kimba Face is anime accurate, but I wish it was possible to have the more robotic looking pauldron face in lion mode.

Interesting choice to go along with the Ex Standard, but I think I get why they did that.

Wrong choice of material….
You want HIQ Mirrage decals – they are 0.03mm thick and are best used for such works… This thing you are showing is way too THICK…
or like they can also be called Aurora stickers
