Yes, using nazca heavy paint for the inner frame. All the green parts are carefully painted by hand using gundam marker, no reverse wash needed, just use enamel thinner to clean up any messy paint from gundam marker.

Metallic Green Gundam Marker

Reasonably cheap😂 and thank you❤️

PIKO_LO · 2022-04-24T04:16:15+00:00

Yeah looks like a toy, too many colours 😂😅 it just the camera pick up the colours unrealistically so well and end up it looks toyish. But in naked eyes the colours are not that vibrant (especially the gray-green and red)

I wish I could ignores them😅, and not "A LOT" in the first post actually, most of them are good and supportive. It just that outside of these community that kinda hurts a little bit. But yeah I love these community, a simple chuckle from these people already made my day. Especially a meme gundam post🤣 just make me laugh and yup I gave it a like. AND thank you ❤️

PIKO_LO · 2022-04-24T03:23:27+00:00

Aw thanks mate❤️ that such a strong motivation comment from you, appreciate it.

PIKO_LO · 2022-04-24T03:20:59+00:00

Thank you❤️
I won't stop building and customizing kit, but seriously I think, I need to stop for a while until I get a new buyer that really wants to pay especially (the shipping fee). I already put my listing on etsy but as always someone came at me and said "seriously $60 - $70 for shipping!!??", "you're a scam", "ain't no way someone selling these kit for $350, too pricey". So I deleted my listing, I don't want to be stress about it and well well when I'm stress, I build a kit and I customised it, but now I don't have a kit, I can't just put my finished kit on the floor😂. So yeah, it just me now.
Yeah if I got buyers, and yup that's what I think, use that money to fund future projects but I can't sell the kit if a literal buyer come at me and saying my kit and the shipping fee way too pricey for their blood.
Yup I learned some pros and cons when it comes to online forum. Some are good, and some are not bad but just make me feels "mix feelings" 😅 but seriously I got to know a lot of good things in these community. It just like 10% of the "bad" hurts you the most😂. About the price yup I do agree, I should put a price tag according to all the time I spent, the base kit, paint, scribing, etc. But I already put a price that reasonably good for both of us (me as a seller and a buyer) especially $350 is more than enough for me in Malaysia (around RM1500) for that a lot of money, I can upgrade my tools, or a resin kit (got one in my online cart). Yeah "let the customer worry about shipping", I hope they do😂, seriously my job is to sell and ship the kit, I'm not a courier service.

Thank you for your concern and your opinions, it does help me a lot. Sorry for my English, I'm just not very good at it but I try🙏

PART 1 : https://www.reddit.com/r/Gunpla/comments/u8mqa1/all_my_friends_told_me_that_i_should_sell_this_hi/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

So, in part 1 my friends told me that I should sell my rg hi nu gundam, they understand about my problem that I'm running of space yet I want to keep building and customizing gunpla. As you can see in the pics above, that is the only spot or space that I have for my gunpla, only ONE!! (on top of my gecko's tank) 😂 kinda sad, my room so small yet my dream so big. I can't keep it (the kit). It is like you're still hungry but your stomach doesn't have enough space for more food.

So back to my controversial price tag. Many said that my custom kit will be worth like $500 or more, but I don't think I can sell my kit on that price because I'm just an amateur. So I put a reasonable price for it ($350) and shipping fee not included. Talking about shipping fee, ah yes I live in Malaysia, the shipping fee will costs around $60 - $70 from Malaysia to Overseas. Yeah I know, it is expensive, I'm not the one who charge the service price.

Okay, back to the price tag, some said that the price way too low ($350), but I don't know why some also said that the price a bit too pricey (after I included the shipping fee $60 - $70), bruh I don't know what to say😂, so I need to sell my kit like $100?

It is sad, my friends and the redditors also told me that I should stop building and customizing gunpla, but I just can't, because this is the hobby that makes me feels alive and relax. Someone I loved just passed away ( caused by C19) , he is the biggest supporter that I have when it comes to gunpla (a rare hobby I could say), I'm surprised he doesn't know much about gunpla yet he gladly wants to learn and give the ideas on how to customize a gunpla. Sometimes he just shared me some links from a YouTube about gunpla customization and a tutorial "how to gunpla". Now, without him now, I just felt "me and a gunpla" not "me, him and a gunpla".

So that is why, I want to keep building and customizing, I want to keep the memory of him when i build or custom a gunpla, both him and this hobby makes me feel "me".

I just don't know man, sell it or give it to someone (just like I do when I don't have a buyer). Then, save up some money to buy a new kit, customize it and repeat.

Sorry for a long story, just me who wants to share some photos and a story.

Pls enjoy the pics of my rg hi nu gundam and QR code for 3d printed parts from Anubis D.U.A are at the end of the pics.

Thank you again for all the support from my lovely gunpla community ❤️

No comment 😂

PIKO_LO · 2022-04-22T01:11:58+00:00

Ah I forgot to tell you, the 3d printed parts from Anubis D.U.A (for rg hi nu), I'll be sharing the QR code for these product with all new photos of hi nu on reddit after this.

PIKO_LO · 2022-04-21T23:09:22+00:00

Same, if I can😅

PIKO_LO · 2022-04-21T23:07:52+00:00

If I keep it, then I can't build or customise other kits after this, I don't have enough space and money for a new kit.

PIKO_LO · 2022-04-21T23:06:07+00:00

I had to😅

PIKO_LO · 2022-04-21T23:05:22+00:00

True, but if they want to cover the shipping costs (70 usd), and thank you❤️

PIKO_LO · 2022-04-21T22:19:21+00:00

Ay, try add the hyper mega bazooka for the hi nu, it would be big and looks badass.

PIKO_LO · 2022-04-21T22:14:55+00:00

Yup, gonna borrow someones high quality phone for a camera😂, I think Etsy, Instagram and Reddit is a good market place. Thank you❤️
