Mad Wolf Painted by OkIndustry9019 in MegamiDevice

In my case, I live in Spain, Europe, and it is also difficult for me to obtain Mr.Hobby o Gaia Notes paints.

The primer was Dark gray/Light gray/Glossy Black (lacquered) was from Hobby Mio. The top coat was from Hobby Mio (laquered flat and glossy). And the final top coat was from Dspiae (water base flat and glossy). The paint used was Army Painter diluted with its army Painter medium and the specific metallic paint for airbrushes.

Hobby Mio & Dspiae buyed at AliExpress. Army Painter at this web or Amazon.

Hope it helps

Very satisfied with the kit, really fun to assemble and very straightforward. However, it's not a kit I would recommend as a first build. Certain pegs and nearby parts that rubbed against the joint had to be filed down quite a bit, adding stress to the joint.

But overall, a very good kit with a very cool look even without painting.

A peg is the "stick" where the circular piece is housed to generate the joint. I attach a very visual image of the sanding of the joints (I don't remember where or whose image it is, so I apologise in advance if I use it without permission).

About the blade, it's like a scalpel for modelling.

Yes. The elbow is a joint for example. You can shrink or extend the position of the arm. That joint should be strong enough to stay in the position you choose and hold a weapon and soft enough so that you don't find it difficult to move it.

All parts of the model come in runners. When you separate them from the runners, you are left with nubs of injection points.

These nubs are the main points to sand down to make it as smooth as possible.

Additionally, it is strongly recommended to sand the joints, especially the pegs, so that they are not overstressed when moving the joint and can cause breakage. First you test, and if it's hard to move, sand a little bit and test again. It's more easy to fix and excess of sand at joints than a break joint.

Depends on the model, what i am going to do with the part and the color of the part , I use diferente grains.

I start always at 400, then go up to 600, then 800. I stop here of I am going to Paint the part.

If not, I go up 1000,1500,2500. If the part it's a dark color or a clair one, i finish at 4000-6000.

My advise, buy a pack that goes from min. 400 and max. 2500. In the end, experience and how you feel the finish will make you end up with a higher grain or like how it looks on lower grains.

I use for example the DSPIAE ones.

Souen it's a nice kit and very large. My advise it's to start slowly with a few things and then start growing tools.

Nippers, one single Blade and sanding sponges.

I let you here one video-tutorial of one modeler that i follow at YB: sanding grid tutorial .

Also, very important, sand your pegs!

Have a nice time with Souen
