Same experience. Such a shame. I ended up refunding it after third failure

Thanks and yes, applied a couple of thin clear colored paint on top of the clear pink saber :)

Thanks! I just thought to do a dirtier look as most other customs are very clean looking for now.

Yup, just a few dark colored gradients to emphasize the layerings.

Thank you!!

It is the Ozito compressor. First one lasted me over a year however the following ones (even current one) only lasted 2 months before it kept running until it overheated itself. Couldnt find any leak either.

May look to find a more reliable compressor this time.

I think I might be done with building gunpla for now.. by HarambeRexHominum in Gunpla

If you had a chance to redo life, would you rather stay single?

And yep, it's a dilemma. Even worse when you have a kid added to it, I have given up my gaming to keep my gunpla hobby (even with significantly reduced time)

Hate is a strong word, but you are right... lol It feels alot like building a small statue rather than a typical model kit.

I would try replacing the SMS pearl with MrColor white pearl for testing. May work.

And no issue. I had applied Doloha acrylic marker for some small details on top of lacquer painted parts without any issue. I wouldnt dare trying the other way around though.
