Hello all (1st post here.)
Question: I need some help on some color "translations" and stuff related. I believe the red color (1st from left top row) azuki bean color 60% + wine red 40% and the brown color (1st from right top row) mahogany 80% + cocoa brown 20% [Correct me please if I did get the colors wrong.] So, regarding those 2 colors azuki bean and cocoa brown colors, I can't seem to find either on the Mr.Color charts. Anyone care to give me a hand? Thanks. |

wrong order issues...eh idc
So this is kinda weird. I ordered the Freedom gundam from gundamstoreandmore.com and when it arrived (like 10 minutes ago) I actually received the Aile Strike Gundam . This doesn't bother me at all since I wanted that one more in the first place. Just thought that I'd share my experience with GSaM with people.

Just finished separating and packing the parts for the Unicorn legs and feet. Found interesting that the feet seem like a scaled down version of those of the PG Strike.
Also, the number of pieces required for the legs is huge. I think none other Gundam has these much pieces for that |

Well, that's the problem with Bandai's colour guides. They sometimes list colours that do not correspond to the both Gunze colour charts. What I do is get a shot of the subject, then I would start to mix the colour using the myriad of colours I have amassed over the years of modeling.
If all else fails, Gunze is not the only manufacturer of hobby paints. You still have Testors, Vallejo, Tamiya, Andrea, etc to pick from. |

Hobbywave is a pretty decent online store. Prices aren't too different from GSaM, which I consider to be relatively cheap compared to most US-based online stores. The only thing I don't like about the store, however, is their flat rate shipping of $10 bucks. Sure, you can save a lot when you buy a bunch of kits, but personally, I don't buy a whole lot of kits like that at the same time. So, yeah, it doesn't work for me. >_<
As for GSaM's shipping rate, they have it listed on their Store Info & Policies. Not too bad, IMO. |
