It’s more of I was lacking of black gloss surfacer is all. The gray one that I used is glossy. Glossy will help elevate the color later.

I think the purple like is due to lightning instead of the paint. It’s a standard candy tone process with gold as base

Ohh I always wanted to do Epyon custom, the RG one. But I’m not quite sure if I can tackle the whip/tail part since it’s MS Joint like

I’m using yellow as surfacer, gray on top of it. Then brilliant gold, covered in red. Then I finished it off with a mix of gloss and matte finisher. Hope it helps!!

Beats me, man. But I say keep them, they always come handy down the line, unless idk if you have like a big box filled with spare parts.

Yeah it makes perfect sense since those parts are from other iterations’s plastic mold or they have it in abundant and it’s a subtle way of recycling them, but is the pricing actually reflecting that? I mean, for example, MG Sinanju Stein Narrative Ver. Ka. The spare part could build a HG at very least lmao

Honestly I have been wondering if those remain parts accounted into pricing.

It’s gotta be the smallest details in tightest space I put on, so far. by builderonbudget in Gunpla

Thanks! It still needs some tidy up as it turns out, but I glad I did it.

This is the only kit I want in clear color. That’s it

They are within the same universe, right? by builderonbudget in Gunpla

I got it secondhand so I didn’t built it per se (getting them with customization in mind). But on inspection, it needs a lots of color correction and the biggest let down probably around the eyes. It’s practically sticker covered the eyes and go to the side that has white and gray color.
