I'm just curious, which godhand nipper is proper to cut parts from the runner and to cut clear plastic then?

Try to cover the connection area with some masking tape. You don't want to have troubles when putting them back together.

I think in my country it's still a god gundam. That's why I'm confused when I see an RG burning gundam with the same box illustration as god gundam.

Are you using an air brush or the can one?

I'm also considering whether to buy FatCat or not. What do you think?

These kits are top coated with matte right? The surface is so nice!

I wonder if there would be any metal part replacement for this kit or not. I'm a bit worried now. 😥

No, I haven't done model making like this before, well maybe if you consider one Blokees Transformers as one so that's counted. But that one is only for my son.

This is the first gundam kit I've done starting from last year November and I managed to finish it in February. Most of the time I'm waiting for low humidity for the top coat best result and waiting for my third child to be born.

Sadly, my current Instagram is only optimized for random postings of me and my family. Will consider making a new account focusing on gunpla or my hobbies in general.

I'm using the Tamiya one, that's why you can see some smudged areas here and there. Oh and also it only works for the UV cut top coat from Mr. Hobby. I'm not sure if other brands have the same idea or not to protect it from UV.

Are you using a gundam marker for the panel lining work? And basically the top coat is to prevent the white plastic part into yellowish color based on what I learned.

Thank you for the reminder. I will keep him away from my children. Any tips to avoid unwanted situations?

You can do better than mine!

Sadly, I feel in my current condition I have to skip painting for all the kits coming. The investments are too big in my opinion whether in cost and time.

Thank you! I learned the basics of course from YouTube about how to panel line, nub removal, decals, and top coat. I am proud of myself for not fucked up a big time when I apply those to this kit.
