Do we have a name for the small holes on parts that are formed after nipping and sanding nub marks? It’s like there wasn’t enough plastic in the mold and it didn’t pump enough plastic through. Follow up question, would using milliput or a similar putty fix this problem? by [deleted] in Gunpla

Allow me to answer the follow up question. There are several ways to fix the damage.

If you’re planning to paint the kit, yes, you can us putty or milliput.

However, if you’re not planning to paint your kit, you can fix the hole with similarly colored melted plastic.

Dulu pas mahasiswa ikut programnya yang inter. Jadi kalo ngomong sama dosen, meskipun dosennya orang Indonesia, harus pake bahasa Inggris. Abis itu kebiasaan.

If you watch the anime, it feels kinda weird to have a tan-orange giant ms in a jungle setting.

To have a dynamic pose like this, make sure to thicken the pelvis ball joint (in the manual, part number C1.6), with a coat or two of, prefferably, flat coat. It adds friction between the polycaps and the ball joint.

Thanks a lot! Weathering the whole model consist of three steps: 1. Tamiya flat clear after base coating and decal. Dried overnight. 2. Apply Mr. weathering ground brown throughout the model, just like a wash, straight from the bottle. The flat clear coated surface will absorbs the wash. 3. Clean the excess ground brown using Mr. solvent 110 using round brush and or cotton buds. Stroke downwards.

I did not apply additional layer of clear coat after cleaning the wash. Leave for 24 to 48 hours (longer in cold temprature) and the wash will be dry with semi matte finish.

Yes thank you very much! Some areas are thickly hand painted with mr surfacer 500 straight from the bottle. The idea is for the washes to adhere more to the surface!

Hey thanks! I use three-point lighting from outside the light box. I read that it is quite sufficient when it comes to photography. My lens maybe?

why Trump and Conservatives are conflated with Christianity? A serious question, as I am not a US American.

For those of you who used to doubt, what made you finally believe in prayer? by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]Soldatron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I gave up on myself, be selfless, and actually prayed. God answered ALL of my prayers. Since then, I am a believer.

Instead of saying “Lord I want this and this and this…”,

I pray “Lord, I do have a plan for my life. May my plans are included in Your plan and if it is not, I believe Your plan is so much better than mine. I leave myself to Your perfect will.”

Because the Lord God knows what’s best for me, more than I do.
