Does anyone have any suggestions on some general basic reading, guides, or links on how to get started with Bandai 1/72 snap together models? (And how to not jack them up royally)

Even little tips would be appriciated.

IE: tab cutting the different varieties of plastic, surfacing, minor detailing, decals, preservation, ect?

Try googling "how to build gundam models" or "how to build gunpla".

It's pretty much the same deal.

Have you read my thread here for the VF-25F? They're all pretty much the same basic construction, it'll give you a better idea (skip the modifications if you're a beginner or if you've got the Armored or Tornado version as the locking tabs on the fast packs solve the problems).

Good luck!
