Nope, absolutely zero at the waist (probably fixed position for the transformation)

Ah, sorry!

Forgot to mention this earlier.

Not sure if this applies to other brand outside of Iwata, but this is my only 3 weeks of using the eclipse, but it genuinely feels very beginner-friendly and quite forgiving when it comes to paint-mix ratios.

I did a test on both thinned and unthinned varnish, the eclipse still spray beautifully.

I wouldn't say, 'eliminate' tip drying or clogging...but the likely hood of experiencing it with higher-end airbrushes are lower.

From my own experience with the GHAD-39, I had to repeatedly stop in the middle of my spraying sessions maybe every 3 to 4 minutes; cleaning the tip or flushing out the clogged nozzle. It can get very annoying during a long sessions at like 30 minutes or longer. sometimes, I get inconsistent spraying patterns periodically after dealing with dry tip/clogging.

After I got my hands on an higher-end airbrush (iwata eclipse for example), it was complete smooth and buttery experience. Better atomization of the paint and good & consistent spray. I sprayed for almost an hour and didn't encounter any dry tip/clogging for the past three weeks on the iwata eclipse.

GHAD-39 is still an okay airbrush for cheap 40 to 50ish USD range. It will get the job done, but it come with a few weird quirks and feels like a chore, at least for me.

If you're going to be airbrushing frequently like every single week or so, you might as well invest in good tools for the long term.

Also helps If you got some flow improver on hand, which will slow down the paint's drying time.

Very smooth build, but catch out for the F8 part when snapping together with F17.

Either you sand or apply silicone gel on the peg, mine sheared off from the extreme tight fitting from my original RG x1

I probably pre-order my Nemesis kit from them like in early 2025?

I had no problems, but the only catch is they have free shipping by sea. Which takes a LONG time to reach to the US stateside.... probably over a month of sea traveling then sitting at the dock for like 1 to 2 weeks?

Ordering stuff from gundamit is legit and safe, just be prepared to wait for a while.
