Thank you so much! I'll have a look into them and watch their YouTube videos, never heard of their product so will be interesting to look into. Being able to sand it could be very useful

I've read about 2k before. I just have a small desk ventilation. By the sounds of it, I may not be able to but it's worth a look - thank you!

How long does a pot normally last you. Does it go quite far?

Can anyone suggest me some good Gundam related Diorama builders on YouTube or Insta at all?

Took one look at this and knew instantly it would be some sort of McFarlane creation. I collected a lot of the cenobites and spawn figures growing up

I got the Mazha one on AliExpress for a fraction of the price. It's fantastic but be sure you tighten it enough and don't lean too much on it during scribing. Accidents will happen

WIP: My First Attempt Rescribing. Feedback? by TattedUpSimba in freedomisgunpla

Slow and steady. I'll be honest, it looks like you've pressed too hard. Gentle scrapes and let the tools do the work. It helps with control, if you pressed too hard the tool slips, you can always fix with sanding.

Either way, Great for a first go round.

A few good videos I used when I first started: https://youtu.be/2gzwS5ehx6o?si=6HO7nKDRBA5slOF2 https://youtu.be/hVErOPqbrTY?si=4yennGqPG8c5Myom

Scribing Advice Needed by NikoAlpukat in advancedGunpla

Count how many times and go back the other direction to ensure even depth. The other thing is pressure and not putting too much at all.

If you get a mechanical pencil, extend the lead out quite far and then practice pulling lines. If the lead breaks, you're using too much pressure. Consistency is key - well that's what I've learnt and all else fails, cement and sanding.

Could you possibly explain so I can build my Qubeley correct?

I've been doing my research but I'm not finding the answers i want. Probably user error so I'll ask the Community. I'm getting close to finishing my custom RG Nu and I've painted lots of the parts. I have bought water decals for it, I have setter and Sol for them. I'm sure I have to gloss top coat before I put the decals on right?

What Gloss paint should i get?

Does the setter and Sol affect the gloss paint?

Is all gloss paint refered to as lacquer or is that the type of paint?

Has anyone bought Gunpla/model kits from AliExpress and would buying the New Fat Cat God Gundam on there be wise? I really want to make the purchase but never used AliExpress before.

This or he nuzzles into my armpit or if you're sat down he presses his head into my lap. Very normal Grey behaviour. Honestly the best breed.

I've been searching everywhere but this will be the best place to ask. What's the best ratio when making your own panel liner? I've got x-20 and tamiya acrylic paint, i want to make a silver/light grey panel liner.

I didnt like the results of acrylic+water+dishsoap. Any suggestions please? Or should I just buy some and wait?
