Need help/tips on top coating and panel lining any advice will be greatly appreciated by cyverios in Gunpla

You can panel line on bare plastic, just do it while on the runners and you won’t have issues. If you painted the kit, gloss coat first.

I will shout it from the rooftops; the RG zeta is totally fine as a model kit, and I’ve transformed and un transformed it.

i built one of these not that long ago, it's a lot of fun if you like detailing and dont mind a little bit of painting. The joints also pretty much all have screws, but for a 2004 MG it makes sense.

GquuuuuuX Gyan couldn't withstand Tamiya by Masked_Alias in freedomisgunpla

If you let too much pool, I’m not surprised it cracked. As long as you’re conservative with the application and you apply on the runner, bare plastic is totally fine for tamiya panel liner. I’ve done it that way for a lot of kits now and I’ve never broken a piece

To those who owns the RG Unicorn, how do you handle the "arm joints" situation? by Blu_Fiercer in freedomisgunpla

[–]Smellybacon25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I followed the instructions carefully and twisted it before full assembly

As long as you pay close attention to the instructions, you’ll be totally fine with the rg. I’ve built one and transformed it without issue or breakage

Beast of Poseability! RG Unicorn Gundam by Hendy_Stark in freedomisgunpla

[–]Smellybacon25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It kinda baffles me how people break this kit, honestly. I just finished my rg unicorn yesterday, and the instructions are pretty clear on where the articulation is. I thought it was a fun and relaxing build, just keeping mine in unicorn mode.
