ikabodI agree with dj... Like what I said before.. It took me almost 20 minutes transforming the Zeta ver.2 because fragile yung mga joint parts especially dun sa groin .. Though when you see the transormation details e madali lang, nakakatakot na pag gagawin mo na When I successfully transformed it to waverider mode, I let it remained on that mode for 4 days before I decided to transformed it again...

dj898cool zeta pictures. like your weathering. do you grind your pencil first and apply it with brush? o apply mo na yung pencil directly tapos smudge mo na lang? again, cool zeta. ikabodsir ikabod, mukhang pati ako napaisip sa Zeta ah. ;D ganon pala ka-fragile ang mga joints nun. hehehehe. pero oks lang. challenge pa rin naman sa pagbuo yun. besides we do have Elmer's Glue as a secret weapon. hahahahaha!!!

Hey DJ, if you don't mind me asking, i would like to try the weathering technique but I don't know how... get a 2B/4B pencil though I used one from my kid's colour pencil box set from ELC. I suspect it's 2B though can't be sure as there's no marking on it you basically you rub the pencile along the edge and rub with your finger to achieve desired degree of weathering common in military modelling and that's where I pick this one up thogh this is the first time I tried and I think I went way overboard by the way when you finished don't forget to lock 'em with the top coat otherwise every time you handle the kit dirtier it will get p.s. i wouldn't recommend it on mostly white coloured kits - Gundam. it would works well on darker colour - i.e. blue, red but on white it's not easy to control and up close it looks like someone smears the coal chalk powers.

do you still apply panel lines after painting your kits?di ba nawawala ung engraving ng panel lines after painting thus making it difficult to apply them?thanks for the info?

weathering should be done as the very last stage you need to build the kit complete - paint/washing/panel lining and etc. w/ top coat before do any of weathering
