Also Strike Rouge is still pretty popular, much more so than Impulse. I feel sorry for Impulse's poor sales,,, so I brought a 1/200 HCM pro version. Now it's even more mess up since it's placed among my other STRIKEs that's in 1/100 MG scale and PG 1/60 scale, along with 1/100 MG Freedom and 1/144 GFF Freedom. My 1/200 hcm pro Impulse must be screening "why don't you just kill me now":eyespin: My 1/200 HCM pro Destiny is on it's way so maybe it can even it out somewhat. Destiny took on a bunch of oversize Destroys so it should be ok , I guess. |

r the gundams on dalong.net painted? It seems they only did the outlines with a black marker
|
Most of them are done with bare minimum, they're supposed to show how they look right out of the package for the most part.
|
Dalong panels and decals his models, but otherwise assembles them out of the box.
|
he also do very very little bit of painting too,, on tiny small parts from time to time

About that chrome finish Freedom kit, there is a Gundam chrome paint marker that would go well with it. I have one of those, and it's really a good substitue for grey |

I once built HD Mazinger Z and it has shiny metal finish on the parts supposed to be white and once you took off from the runner there's no way you can hide unless you paint the whole thing - which defeat the purpose to shell out the extra for this kit when you can get cheaper non plating MC version... :( |
The Hyaku-Shiki parts are attached to the sprue at the bottom/inside of the parts? So there aren't any visible traces when you assemble it?
I've been thinking of getting one, but I wouldn't want to repaint the entire thing in gold. Ugh, painting gold. |
I have the HGUC(1/144) version of the Hyaku Shiki and to be honest, they aren't really noticable. Of course if you look closely you can tell but from a feet or two away, I can't really tell. I have taken a picture of it before but it was out of focus so it would really help.

[ok time for yet another small progress update]
I wasn't happy with the diorama base - it was too blend and had no characteristics of Gundam universe... So after bit of researching - i.e. watching few OVA DVD :p - I came up with another layout idea. here's rough drawing of the new base - sorry for messy drawing. I was in hurry :P http://img472.imageshack.us/img472/4...08428xb.th.jpg and here's the initial arrangement before I glue things down. http://img472.imageshack.us/img472/9...08413we.th.jpg |

with 1/144 scale the chogokin model is pretty good... has nice articulation as well as being chogokin has nice weight to it, not to mention great gold plating... :D ok enough OT... |

Is that supposed to be a hangar? |
well the idea was some kind of hangar but I wanted to use the bridge kit so it's bit changed to outdoor are next to the railway line... Will need to spend more time to do detailed fround work - and still waiting for the fine day with painting - been raining and cloudy for last couple of days... :(

I need abit of help.......I was watching a model making video of one of the top Gundam model makers in JPN apparentally and I noticed whenever he used poly cement on the seams he sprayed something else on it which seemed to clean the area, does anyone have an idea what it might have been?

Quote:
I also have some videos of other top builders making Gundam MK.II, Zaku and etc. they're like entire shows which take you through the entire process and shows you tons of tips for building models. Though I can't figure out what some of the stuff they use is. |
