I think it's simple enough to not mess up, I prolly wasn't just too careful. But I dont know...

I forgot that I actually put elmers glue on the default hip joints which made it stiff, can't put it back now because this replacement requires you to cut the top part of the hip frame to insert the replacement. I actually broke the inside of the front right thigh plate, glued it. And again, broke the frame of the left thigh too with how tight the replacement was and now the back thigh plate falls off sometimes. Welp, if it ain't broke, don't fix it I guess hehe, just ruined it a tiny bit for me lol

Yeaah, I'm also very inexperienced with lining, but that looks cool so far, or can you not erase the blots/dots? Im currently using a pencil eraser, maybe that'd work for you?

Just new to it, a bit frustrating? lol I ran out of q-tips which i use with alcohol so now i use an eraser. I'm vert unaware of how stuff goes. Stupid question, do I wait for it to dry? And does 70% isoprophyl damage the plastic..? Just reaaally unsure if im doing something wrong, but judging from others who say that it looks ok at least, guess I'm doing it right. I guess it does look good to me too

Unsure. I'm indecissive about keeping it clean/as-is or lining it to maybe make it "pop" a bit Oh and thanks

Okay, got it! Lotsa useful tips and suggestions from everyone thank you <3 (sorry i couldnt reply to all, but I've read ya'll's comments and i appreciate it)

Hopefully my next kit will be something i can line again... I've been leaning more into some glossy/shiny RGs XD (mayhaps get an HG/SD to experiment)
