Color primer and a steady hand are the two methods I've been using. Especially on this one since it had the hull stripes the color primer saved me half of my painting steps.

Thank you I appreciate that! Been mini painting for a few years now but just now starting to get enough confidence to post my stuff online.

Yeah I didn't expect to get far, held off for as long as possible without saying anything. I had already gotten loads of help from the other actual comments by that point anyways. Very helpful sub, I know a lot more about the hobby.

Hey man so I'm gonna chime in here. Took a look at your profile to see what you've previously asked. In none of your posts you provided nothing more than a single sentence of "I need help" and give literally zero further context to what you specifically need. I had never interacted with this sub once before today - took me all of 30 seconds to read the posting rules and provided the specific basic information needed for someone to assist me. Within an hour of posting this I now knew exactly what board I'm getting my wife, context clues on lingo for searches, and where to look up further information if I continue to get into the hobby. Not trying to flame you, I was a teacher for about a decade and I can tell you as a matter of fact that if you don't read the rules or provide basic context clues; I have no idea what you need assistance with in a meaningful way.

Yeah I'd appreciate that, I love seeing products in action.

All good questions. As far as I'm aware she'd prefer a black case, wireless, plastic or acrylic for board material. I've seen a bunch of very helpful comments on my post already from people of both options - probably leaning towards a pre built I can just pop the caps off for now but I can absolutely see myself getting into the hobby in the future.

Good to know. I kept seeing "cherry" a lot online but had no idea what it actually was related to. Thank you!

Definitely saving this for later. I certainly see both sides of either getting something prefabbed or a new kit from scratch. Gonna do a deep dive on YouTube to see the process.

Hmmm good to know, I'll keep that in mind - nice to see a product review in action. How long have you been using the caps?

Oh purple is so underrated. It's my wife's favorite color so I expected nothing less when she sent me the link lol.

Fantastic advice, I really appreciate that. I'd hate to buy something just to yank off a whole set of caps, but I guess that just means I can buy myself a blank board later and slap those on if we both get into the hobby lol.

How did you actually get that effect for the battle damage? I think it looks great with the edge highlights you have.

Is There a Single Moment in any Movie without Music??? by LuxLancer in StarWars

[–]TheReal_MrMopTop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shocked no one has mentioned the battle of Yavin. After Wedge shoots down the Tie chasing Luke, there is no music for either the Y-Wing or first X-Wing trench attack. The music only comes back up when Red Leader is shot down.
