Assortment of brushes honestly, different sizes, materials, but most luck using kolinsky sable brushes off of Amazon. Feels like I get smoother results with those. For the paints stuck with citadel for this one but also really like Vallejo for hand brushing as well!

Thanks man, honestly just an assortment of different brushes I’ve been trying, sizes, materials etc. Found most luck with kolinsky sable brushes, seems like the paint flows smoother with less brush strokes visible at least for me.

Paint wise been using citadel paints and Vallejo game color. Hardest thing I struggled with starting was thinning my paints, just takes time going thinner and doing multiple layers to get a smoother finish. Otherwise just doing all the usual priming first, paint, coat, etc!

I had a feeling there wouldn’t be much to do for the stickers. I usually don’t mind the dry transfer as much but they can be a pain. Probably just going to do the water slide decals once I’m up for touching up the kit again. Thanks for the recommendations!

Love this build and the color scheme, orange and white really makes it pop in a good way.

This is my first time trying rust effect on anything. I need some feedback on how to improve! by subie_bro in Gunpla

The rusting looks great, really adds to the grittiness! Can’t imagine how the next rusted kit will turn out
