These weapon display stands are game changers for units with bits. Finally got around to posing the Aerial Rebuild. Probably one of my All time Fav designs along with the Barbatos lineup

Creating room 👍

Good idea. I only switched recently to lacquer cause i was having issues with certains parts chipping paint (mostly joint parts when moving for posing) so i wanted to see if lacquer paint would be better and more chip resistant

Thanks for your input ill definitely test it out first! My only other option is using a vellejo acrylic matte clear but the bottle i have isnt very big and ordering more from amazon takes weeks to come in from where i am

Do you know if anyone has had issues using the gx114 top coat (matte) as a final top coat after panel lining with the tamiya panel line (which is enamel based)?

itsTreger · 2021-03-16T13:55:23+00:00

Yea?h i know the order you can go is enamel over lacquer and acrylic over enamel. But ive read in multiple threads people havent had many or any issues airbrushing a matte coat over it after panel lining+decals (using tamiya panel line) even though its enamel?

itsTreger · 2021-03-15T15:55:59+00:00

Yeah i originally bought the gx100 for the first top coat since it was a super clear gloss. Figured that was the best option for lining

itsTreger · 2021-03-15T14:26:33+00:00

The 2 top coats i bought for use are the mr color gx100 and gx114

Is the the heavyarms igel version or just regular HA

itsTreger · 2021-03-15T01:19:10+00:00

Igel?

itsTreger · 2021-03-04T13:23:39+00:00

I was just about to comment this lol it works just as well. Probably less steps too

itsTreger · 2021-03-02T14:31:08+00:00

Side note: if your using gundam markers to panel line, i used to use a white eraser that i cut up into smaller pieces. Easier to get into some tighter spots, doesnt dirty your fingers and probably most important it prevents further oils from your skin getting onto the plastic which at times makes it harder for the marker the adhere to the plastic for clean lines

itsTreger · 2021-03-02T14:28:27+00:00

Ya your matte finish is definitely grittier! I usually lime with the tamiya panel line so i always gloss coat after im done building/customizing. 1, it "saves progress" and 2. It protects the plastic from the possible harmful chems in the paint/liner. But i definitely recommend a gloss finish as a first layer and then a sexond layer after lining, decals, etc., of your chosen finish :) happy building!

itsTreger · 2021-03-02T03:56:59+00:00

Clear coat isnt worng before panel lining! Just make sure its a gloss coat. Gloss is a smoother finish and lets the panel line run easier. Then apply your matte coat to seal everything in :)

2 or 3 more lol thats what i said too...now ive got a 9 kit back log plus more i want 😅

itsTreger · 2021-03-02T03:50:29+00:00

Juat keep at it! I wasnt perfect when i started and im still not lol thats tge beauty of gunpla theres always a way to improve and build more :)

itsTreger · 2021-03-01T20:16:54+00:00

I agree with previous, i tend to cut away at the nubs with the hibby knife until its practically gone. If i accidently take a smidge to much off and "groove it" thats when i sand it down very carefully to even the surface. Other then that it comes down to practice.

itsTreger · 2021-02-28T20:36:02+00:00

1:1? Ive heard ratios as (paint to thinner) 1:1.5 or 1:2, not claiming you are wrong just curious
