  • Your video has convinced me that I made the right choice ordering one of these monsters. Thank you.

    Thanks all, the forums were a big help. V0LTES did catch me on my laziness though… the busters are still skewered, awaiting the day I paint again. I am having quite an issue picking the next kit though so it might be awhile.

    The gold accents against the deep blue look amazing. Loving the finish, congratulations on a kit well done.

    Yeah, in the end I kept the wings white and just top coated them to avoid more joint issues that plagued this model. And I ended up finishing much sooner, which was a plus.
    Glad you all like the white wing white glove angel. I’ve never had to carve pegs or bore holes or clamp parts on any kit before, not on any HG or NG I have built before. I…[Read more]

    Just throwing up another two photos of the WingZero.

    • And indeed it does look nice! I like how you kept the wings brighter than the rest of the kit. From your experience with the kit, it explains why most people just stick it in one pose and leave it alone.

      • Holy moly, you work fast. That looks EXCELLENT. I love every part of it. It’s natural for it to be the most poorly designed kit that you have because you’ve only built the top quality models so far.

    • Your WZC looks awesome man. The whole tone of the kit really comes together very well. Awesome job man.

    • Excellent work with Wing Zero. But where are the epic Buster Rifles??

    Their finishes definitely stand out, I agree. I thought the 500 was more for filling, just wasn’t sure if I was missing out on any tricks. Always something new to learn.

    I finished the WingZero, just need to paint a few small details and decide on the color of the wings. It barely stands on its own, it has next to no articulation, and none of…[Read more]

    Thank you all for the compliments. It took awhile to decide how much color besides silver to add, and I still cannot decide whether I want the wings black, silver, gold or white…

    I’m thinking I’ll definitely go with Mr. Thinner, don’t hear anything much about alclad in the gundam side of kits. I don’t wash kits, but I have started to use…[Read more]

    • Yeah, I don’t hear about Alclad primer much when it comes to gunpla. Alclad metallics are the bomb, though.

      Washing the parts….I don’t know, I feel it’s a bit needed just so you can get rid of any dust and fingerprints. It’s not necessary by any means, but it’s one of those things that can only help. I don’t soak mine anymore. I find a…[Read more]

    Hello everyone, glad to see some forum faces. Just wanted to drop an update while checking things out. I have not had much time lately to build and paint, but I have been able to get a bit done with the WingZero. I have had quite a time with trying different primers and have decided to give up on any acrylic based primers. They never sprayed…[Read more]

    • I love that color scheme you went with for the Wing Zero. It looks so darn good with the contrast between the gold, silver, and black.

    • The colors you have have put on the Wing Zero looks absolutely perfect for it. I love them, very nice job man.

    • I was mostly Mr. Surfacer and they do hold up much better but the most important thing is to wash you parts after de-nubbing and sanding before putting on the primer coat. Also make sure to wash your hands before putting them on sticks if you have sweaty hands like me.

    • Very nice color scheme on the WZC. Gives off a somber impression. I can already see the whole thing looking really really nice.

      Regarding primer, I’ve been using Mr. Surfacer exclusively this year (Surfacer 1200 and 500) and they’re great. Thin them at 1:1 or 1:1.5 with Mr. Color Leveling Thinner and they spray beautifully. You can use…[Read more]
