I have better finished kits when I started using Tamiya Paint retarder...here is my first painted Gunpla with Tamiya paint retarder mixed with Tamiya acrylics - PG Zeta ver DC23
Nicely done my friend!! Here in New Zealand most of the PG range are very hard to get, though ones that are found here cost around the 450-580.00 range!! I found it much easier to import them through a friend in Hong Kong, though at the moment money is really 'tight', so no new PG's for a while... sigh O_o

PEACE
