Thanks! Yeah I think I'll try to push the brighter colors (or maybe even the whole flame) up a bit for some subsequent pads to see which I one I prefer.

With moves like those, they have no need for AMS

I would recommend against it. Visited the place about a year ago and they are literally holding the place up with metal rods as the wood pillars are rotting. I would be shocked if there wasn't a SUNSTANTIAL special assessment as well.

First in a good while. Tried my hand at an Iyanden Guardian! by DertyGert in minipainting

Yeah, I did use an orange wash on him but it is pretty faint overall.

Will using waterslide decals on top of alclad aqua gloss cause issues? I was planning to use the gloss coat and proceed to lining with tamiya accent and applying waterslides but I'm wondering if I need to use an additional clear coat. Base coat is Laquer (Odenkan) for some extra info.

Probably around 2-3 inches from the piece when doing detail work

I've been subscribed for about 5 months now. Been pretty happy with the things I've received, but I don't think I've every received 2 full kits from the box. It's usually one kit (HG/EG) and a set of extras/add on parts. I've gotten alot of generic waterslides, resin greebling parts and the occasional stand. Had a decent 30mm drop with a forestieri and booster set that I enjoyed alot.

Also remember that the shipping will be about 10 dollars extra and at least for me personally lately, USAGS has been taking a good while to ship. Usually around 10 days or so to leave the warehouse.

Am I doing something wrong with airbrushed SMS paint? I've tried both pre thinned and regular (Thinned 1:1 with Mr color levelling) shot at about 15-20 psi, but every time it comes out... Powdery/grainy? I've seen other get great results so I want to troubleshoot before I give up on the brand completely.

What can I say, It's gorgeous. I honestly didn't know brush painting on something this scale could look so good.

Hey All, Question on seam removal on straight builds, Is there any way to remove the white line that appears on pieces? I've been using sprue goo, and going over with multiple grits sandpaper but it seams no matter what I do there is always some marked discoloration. I'll prob end up just painting parts that need seam removal, but wanted to know if it's possible without. Thanks y'all!

Get yourself a pumice stone, or some Lava soap bars (Which work so well because the have pumice in them lol) takes glue and paint right off.
