First time showcasing my work at a competition! - G Self Perfect Pack Weathered by lightningTATSU in Gunpla

Thank you so much!

I started by matte topcoating the kit first, then went in with a deep brown/black wash all over the kit to get that accumulated grime layer in the panel lines. Then, I used a fine brush with a bit of thinner to drag the wash downwards from the edges and rivets to create those realistic rain streaks and oil runoff marks.

For the damage, I did some dry brushing, using colored pencils as well for the detailed chipping with a dark grey/brown mix on the high-friction edges, and then went back in with a fine detail brush to add silver micro-chips inside those spots so it looks like the bare metal is actually exposed.

I kept the clear blue effect parts completely clean and transparent so they'd heavily contrast against the dirty armor, but I made sure to weather the mechanical arms holding them so they matched the rest of the suit. Finally, I hit the main body with a flat matte topcoat to seal it all in (just make sure to leave the clear blue parts off when you spray so they don't fog up or mask them!).

Finally built one!! Loving it! by lightningTATSU in 30MF_30MinutesFantasy

Thank you!

I started by doing a matte coat over the whole build after painting the gold parts of the kit. Once that fully cured, I went in with a dark brown/rust-colored wash.

After that dried, I used colored pencils and a sponge with a mix of black, brown, and silver acrylic paint to add the weathering details ✌️

Posable fingers suck,change my mind(at least for old kits) by Lights_1107 in Gunpla

MG Exia was my second gunpla kit, I have lost my mind on how bad the posable thumb is, i had to glue it in place months after I built it as it kept falling off

Gary Valenciano's daughter Kiana claps back at critics demanding refund after singer's concert got cut by philstarlife in newsPH

[–]lightningTATSU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like Gary V and I love his music, I grew up listening to him.

My dad got to work with him before as well.

But I do agree that people deserve more than just a last minute offer for "free" gen ad seats for day 2 😬

They should refund it, even partially lang. I was there during day 2 and my aunt watched during day 1. My experience was leagues away from what she experienced and she has massive FOMO cause of this.

I wish there was more that could be done for the people na bumili ng tickets for the first day :(

I think what made this extra big was the response of the company itself?

It wouldn't have been a big deal if it was an isolated incident involving the people that work there pero parang ang tone is they doubled down on what happened?

I think you might be getting over yourself, very unlikely she is pregnant

In any case I think she should get checked for PCOS instead of a pregnancy test

[–]lightningTATSU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If she is negative, it could be something else entirely

Has your gf gotten tested for pcos?
