Well as usual I've decided to do more than I planned...filling screw holes in the legs with putty...and I'm sorry, but rant mode on...I HATE tamiya putty. It is horrible in my opinion. Cheap spackling is so much nicer to work with. That is all.
Meh....I gave up on the arms. Thanks for the tip on the leg fins Chonic. I'm thinking this far is fine as I haven't broken anything yet! Let the masking begin! I'll put up some pics later today
I actually went a shade darker than all my Zent, Capital Ships.. I used Model Master Dark Green instead of my usual Model Master Interior Green. I figured as a recon vessel it would be darker. Also, it looks more anime accurate to me.
OK..so I've decided to try to keep this VERY simple and just airbrush green over the light tan on a brand new Kaki TV version I got a few days ago. My question is to all you smart guys around here.
is there a way to disassemble the Valk to make the painting easier??? (or has anybody tried this around here?, I know people have taken apart the arms enough to get to the bad pins)...Or is it just better to try to mask it all and hope for the best????
Thanks for the help!
Didn't know the "Beast" had been released!!!! Dang...$50 though??? ouch...hmmm...maybe I'll wait a bit until paragraphix or whoever makes awesome armor plating decals for it. All the photoectch is already sold out for it at Starship Modeler as well.
My Millia 639 wedding dress was nasty gooey slimy also after years in the display case. I think I just wiped it off with a cloth, maybe some water, can't remember, to long ago.
This. Luckily I got everything from Yamato I really wanted. The only 3 I don't have that NOW I wish I did are a 1:60 Regult Kit, the brown 1/60 VF-1J Mass production type and the VT-1. Other than those..I'm a happy camper that thankfully doesn't ever have to resort to panic buys or ebay rape.
