Where did you guys get your MG Destiny Heine Ver.??? It's my most sought after kit atm, but I have not found any good/decent deals The only place I have seen it is Ebay....and you know the sort of exclusive prices they have on there Quote:

I think it's Nu Gundam that make up most of the cost, but still... |
I got it from my local hobby shop for the MG Heine ver
|
I think I don't have much of a choice since HG Hi-Nu is at $80 atm (and that's the cheapest I could get after a lot of viewing in my country's stores), still getting 3 kits for the price of one (even if two are bootlegs) is better than nothing.
|
AH, then you should get it
|
They have arrived!
Will update more as I build: Dynamic tag cannot be rendered. (PrintableThread) |

This bootleg Strike Freedom, who makes it? Cause I've been seeing some good overall details from bootlegs. I wouldn't mind buying one but not a PG, Is there a site that you went to? If so just Private message me it. Thanks and Cheers!!! Quote:
Just thought I would share this story.. Anyways I'm looking forward to building the 3.0 and thanks for sharing your pic and your feedback. |

Their base paint slightly toxic, and their sticker is awfully bad. But their overall appearance is acceptable tradeoff, literally half price or less than that of bandai. Daban is a branch with slightly better quality, but not worth the price. Except with EVO line which is slightly better than Bandai in details. Dragon Momoko (Taiwan) make so much better model for their price, so good that it's rumored that they're actually Bandai's subsidiary to counterfeit the Chinese bootlegging. And then there's McModel (China) who boast far greater detail than even Bandai's original kit. Unfortunately, they cost almost as much as a Real grade, so Bandai is better choice. |
1/144 Hi-Nu was a fun Gundam to build. Note that only 2 of the funnels are actually "working" but I didn't mind as I hate working on funnels and that there's the existence of Gunpla Fighters' customized black and yellow Hi-Nu too.
I like my Hi-Nu but articulation isn't its best forte. What it did well is to be pretty and I really liked the fact that you don't need to put much effort into it as Bandai did most of the work, in terms of seamlines and color separation. Dynamic tag cannot be rendered. (PrintableThread) |
Hi guys, I just bought the MG Duel Assault and a HMM Fire Fox.
I'm going to attempt to do a legit job on both. my past models have only had panel lining and the painting of very small details. Absolutely nothing else. Now i want to do custom color schemes on Fire Fox because I do not like the standard and change all the dark blue parts on Duel to Purple and the assault shroud to black or dark grey, since I already have the NG 1/100. But i want to clarify and make sure that my method is correct: 1: Tamiya Primer (I'm doing custom paint jobs for both) 2: Tamiya spray paint. Tamiya acrylic paint small details like thrusters, tubing, etc 3: Gloss finish spray 4: Panel line via wash. Decal application (waterslide and scratch on only) 5: Matte finish spray Would that be correct? Also, what do you guys recommencement for topcoats? I was thinking to use Mr.Hobby Topcoat gundam or Testors Dullcote. Would Tamiya TS-80 Flat clear be a topcoat? or is it just a regular paint? |
Quote:
Both Mr.Hobby and Testor matte/flat coats are good choices, Testors tend to be cheaper and more available in the US, if thats where you live Is the TS Flat in a spray can? If its not and in one of those smaller acrylic bottles, then you have to mix it with normal tamiya clear to use with an airbrush |
Thanks man!
I'll definitely sand the parts I clip off the runner but i think sanding the entire kit and getting rid of panel lines is a little too far out of my league. :heh: EDIT: And would the Tamiya PS spray really damage my plastic models? I want to give the fire fox metallic purple accents but I have now learned that you are NOT supposed to use them for plastic kits, despite the salesman telling me that it should be fine. And the drive to the hobby store is very far. |

What type of paint is the metallic purple you are using? Correction: Quote:
|
The metallic purple I was going to use, along with the gunmetal for the frame is the PS type. I guess I'll have to go exchange them..

I have never import things myself as almost everything is available here in my country with various prices if you know where to look. Does HLJ have any exclusive kits? |

Basically if you want obscure unit, Asian market is your friend.
I just saw an old issue MG Rx-78, as in, the earliest produced, at less than 10 bucks. |
