Installing a body kit



Thanks for the info


I never knew the difference between them. I’ve never been able to find any information on what products are compatible. Even within paint brands


On the piece pictured, I used XGM08 for the gold, testors green met flake, and Mr. Super Clear Gloss


I paint cars for a living. Painting plastic robots should not be this challenging for me. But all the techniques are different. Are you airbrushing topcoat?


My love affair with gundam markers has ended. I can’t make the metallics look good with top coat.

Once I find the right color in real paint I will recoat and the panel line after topcoat


Oops I forgot to make the weekly post. Thanks for picking up my slack.
Complete seasoning is one of my favorites and it has msg


Same. I’ve been holding back from Gunpla to work on my car, also The Wife said no more robots until you get rid of some.


They will both pretty much be metallic versions of the original color scheme. If I change any colors on them it will only be for increased separation which is already pretty good on these kits.


I’m waiting on a metal frame and waterslides for my MG Altron and and I still have to finish painting and detailing MG Sandrock and FM Aerial. I’m waiting on a couple kits from P-Bandai too.


I generally dont like SD but this looks sick. I’m getting terminator vibes.


I think it’s cool. What’s going on the white and red base?


My last few kits have been from P-Bandai, but I’ve been using The Gundam Place Store for my supplies. Their shipping charges are comparable to other US based stores but they are about an hour from me so sometimes I pick up my orders in person when the wife wants to galavant on the weekends.


I’m on vacation this week but I’m working on MG Altron
This is wicked looking. I like it
Dspiae does make a nice marker
The metallic Gundam markers won’t look even unless you spray it. That why I was talking about the gm airbrush the other day. You can make it look good but the paint is very fragile. It chips easy and even rubs off when handling. It also changes in appearance with topcoat.

All the red on this is XGM03 marker sprayed with air
Where does this information come from come from? I’m genuinely curious, I don’t remember any of that from the show
I’m excited to see it.
