Okay, Age-2 confirmed and the upgrade for Genoace which is called "Adele" will also have a GB 1/100. Well, it's not confirmed whether it's an upgrade or not, but yeah, it looks like it slapped with an age-1 normal's shield.

alright! i just ordered some green glow in the dark pigments, guess for what MG model i will be using that once it gets released in december! >=D
someone on gundam-eclipse covered the inside of the blue psycho frame pieces of his HG ANA unicorn with a mix of mr. color clear and blue glow in the dark pigments, it looks freaking awesome! i so want to have that, too with my FA unicorn^^ and painting the inside of the pieces and not the outside is simply an ingenius idea... you cant scratch it off and having it glow from the inside properly looks a lot better, too! i cant wait to experiment with those pigments a little once i get them^^ |

i know right?^^ i think this is a way better solution than LEDs. during the day you wouldnt use the LEDs anyway so you can let it charge up during the day :P plus, you dont need to mod anything or buy expensive batteries for the LEDs!
i think thats just the most elegant solution for this problem. also, since i plan to coat the inside of the psycho frame pieces like in the ANA unicorn above you wouldnt even see the pigments when you look at the model during the day. |

Dude, that is just.... wow.
That is just too beautiful, a word I didn't expect to use for a (model of a) giant robot. Edit: Appel, if you succeed in making your FA Unicorn look that good (or better, since it's a MG) I WILL find you and I WILL kiss your feet

Anyone an expert on topcoat? I'm building my MG Deathscythe right now and thought that it might look better with a flat coat. So I sprayed the inner frame and now the joints are completly broken. It's almost as if the topcoat melted them away. All the moving parts are have cracks or are in pieces. If anyone here could tell me what went wrong I would be truly grateful!? I used Tamiyas flat topcoat. Gonna order myself a new deathscythe for now... thank god that it is on sale right now. :/

for example, when i weathered my no grade 1/100 launcher strike the same thing happened to me because i used lighterfluid as a thinner for the enamel paint. as it seems lighterfluid damages the plastic that bandai uses for their models and makes it very brittle. im sure the same thing happened to you, just with a different kind of thinner. but it would help a lot if you could tell us what exact kind of top coat you used^^ |

Sure. It's this one:
http://www.google.com/products/catal...ed=0CCQQ8wIwAQ It says TAMIYA COLOR FOR PLASTICS TS-80 FLAT CLEAR on the can. I've used the same stuff on a number of other models (HG Kits, MG Kits) and never had that kind of problem. |
