I'm sure you'll get used to building MGs pretty soon pre... the more MGs you build the more you'll get adjusted to the process... ;D
MG ALL THE WAY! ;D

RainerO: many thanks sir. I did encounter some issues with the leg part. I actually followed the step by step procedure on the manual since it's my first time building the mg but not really of an issue though.... @jnthn: thanks for the acknowledge there boss. I never knew it would be this satisfactory... nonetheless, it ain't bad for a first decal work for me... hehehe.. at least i have learned to apply coating first before the decals... but my inquiry would lie on the application of top coats/clear coats/gloss coats? are these three terms the same?? and i am also wondering on how to use the bottled paint... it's for the GN00 gundams- is it best just to mix it with denatured alcohol then use a dropper and drop it on the clear parts of the gn kits or use a paint/handbrush technique? thanks in advance!! hhehe Lotur: ahahaha... indeed!! if i am not mistaken- it's always you driving me to something else, or if not sir qb's and raps collects or if not master vic's work!! **sigh*

miasongit'd be better, IMO, to use a handbrush to apply the clear paint. what I do is a mix 1:0.5-1 paint to thinner ratio then brush it evenly on the part. also, to make it more vibrant, apply silver paint on the back of the clear parts. learned that via fichtenfoo.

Ah I see like most of the people like me, have it experienced the same kind of problems. But for me it's really much appreciated of the unicorn was transform to destroy mode more so with decal on it!

nice work on your deathscythe hell pre  ... one suggestion pre on your green bottle paint, add some color to it like white since green is much better if mix with different color to make it alive |

@sir qb: Hmmm... will try to do so. Many thanks on the advice master. But just a quick question, if you apply silver coating on the other end- does it not show it off? RainerO: hehehe. the teeth on the leg part is actually not holding the transparent pink parts that is why i know that there's something wrong on the way i snap the parts.... but anyways, it fixed now. hehehe @jnthn: many thanks!! I'm actually using the denatured alcohol one, not the regular type. I got the advice from the one selling at Tamiya store. I used some spare alcohol from the CHN bag i had during my nursing school days.. ahahah ;D ;D ;D @gundamx: many thanks for the appreciation boss!! I guess I'm too late on viewing this thread since i have used the bottle paints already... huhuhuh adbenturero: Ehehehe... I made it specially for you!!  Long time no see! Hehehe kaix: Thanks on the comment pre! Glad you like it!!
