After a few moths debating, finally got the main colour figured out, now the cleaning, sanding and such can begin. The inner frame is done, added some Builders Parts verniers…
teetee, that frame is looking pretty sweet and the contrast with the gold thrusters makes it even better. Do you prime when you paint the internal frames?
I also got those verniers from the builders parts. Really like where you placed them. Cant wait to see how the whole build turns out.
I do prime the frame before painting, using Alclad’s primer. As I dry-fit the joints, I see where a layer of paint might get too thick and sand the parts that would rub against each other. This wat moving the joints won’t scratch the paint up. I used a few primers and this is the only way to making sure there will be no paint rubbing…[Read more]
Hi all I am really hoping that someone in this group can either provide me with or provide me with a website where I can get the parts I’m missing for my MG Double X. I’m missing A 18, 19, & 20. I don’t care if I have to pay for the parts or shipping I just need those parts to build my kit.
Second Two of Iron Blooded Orphans is just around the corner and as such, Bandai has reveal the new Gunpla/MS design for the next season. I will be definitely be picking up a few of these guys.
Maybe someone will know. The question is about the dreadfull P-Bandai.
The items on their store only have a month release date. So the question is -> Does P-Bandai has a specific day they do the release for that month or just its “any day is fine as long as its during that month”?
I’m afraid that every pre-order on http://bandai-hobby.net/site/onlineshop.html seems to have a specific order cut-off date but then just the vague month of release.
There may be more information if you order directly from there or get on their mailing list but I can’t say for sure 🙁 .
Okay i have a bit of an issue here, i was test running the panel line accent marker on the panel lines of my kit, but thing is, every time i use the mr hobby thinner to rub off the excess ink, it keeps erasing off the panel lines. Am i using the wrong thinner or something?
This is the bottle with the yellow label and the blue writing, right?
If so, this is the cellulose based thinning agent, in other words, the lacquer based thinner.
This is the wrong thinning agent. If not careful, it might melt the plastic if not careful. You where lucky so far….
Try to get a hold on the light blue/turquoise…[Read more]
He means the empty runners and what to do with them…….
There was someone here that posted a picture of him building a stand out of the runners, this was a long time ago, can’t remember who or what.
Or do what I do, throw them in the old recycling bin, or is that a dumb answer to a ………. (insert your opinion on the dotted line) question 😛
im going to commend u on showing us a pic organizing all those parts. lol i usually just put same color parts in one box dump em on a table and start assembling it after painting. but good job on this
Thanks! I usually keep them in a box with containers, organized by body part or color section. But funny story, as I was putting all together for the photo, I realized a shoulder part was missing. I went to search for it and found it under my desk, if wasn’t for the photo I may have lost that piece forever!
Not really, the paint cured very well, its very hard. (there is Tamiya L primer underneath), when you move the joints the paint wont scratch or peel off. Of course there is a very little spot on each joint with no paint, but you cant see it because is in the bottom or underneath the frame armor.
prob not the right place to say this but whtever. anyone that lives in the us, Barnes and nobles are having a gundam sale so wing custom, double x and others are up on sale for 25 percent off
