duotiga83 SG a few parts painted….the rest using the foil stickers and panelling….the lin got show the rest of the poses….
wcloudx SG Decided to open my package. This is what the box looks like if anyone wondering: The box contained 2 "Containers", A & B. No decals needed, but lots of panel lines to do. Supposedly, there should be a DVD given inside, but can't seems to find it. Maybe it's only for the first edition releases.
strikezero1975 SG The DVD was only given for the initial released batch. But it is only a video of the Gundam Evolve of Dendrobium, nothing much in the DVD, can do without it, cause can find this video on the internet,
wcloudx SG Thought so Yeah got the space reserved and ready Gonna start fixing it next week after my finals ended
wcloudx SG No worries lol MG and 1/100 took me like 2-3 days to complete, including decals and panel lines. 1/60 PG took me close to 5-6 days. This could probably took me a week or so to complete. Good thing there's no decals needed Although I would prefer if they have it
waverider75 SG Hi guys, My first post in this forum. Please allow me to show my humble collections, my recently completed Master Gundam, Normal and Hyper Mode, I don't do painting for my kits, as i find the completed kits good enough, so never bother to find time learning, even though a painted kit is definitely much better, haha..
waverider75 SG Thank you. Have been reading this forum for quite some time and decided to register and post my humble collection..haha..
duotiga83 SG i might be a bit late...but notheless WELCOME TO THE CLUB manage to get God Gundam for your collection?
wcloudx SG Welcome Anyway this is my progress on Dendrobium Took me whole day and for day 1, this is what I have so far: This is just the lower body part finished, left with the big shoulder packs, booster, the 4 main "Hand" weapons and of course, GP03 itself This thing is pretty heavy since there are 3 metals inside to make it stable. Some of the parts are also have some weight in it. My guess it could reach atleast 2 kg once it's finished. Need some painting and colouring also, especially the rocket booster. Looks like I can finish this earlier than expected, between 3-5 days. Oh and that's my SF Lightening Edition
Rockhound SG wat do u all use to paint anywaes? markers? or model paints? i do WW2 models like Spitfires and lightnings and use model paint... how does the gundam hobby do its figures anywaes?
wcloudx SG I use Gundam special markers for now. For assembling there isnt much different from other plane and car kits. You need sanding and colouring and stuffs. The only difference probably just the need of cement and glue. Gundam kits doesn't need gluing, but there are some that needs wiring and screwing bolts
Rockhound SG so markers would be sufficient to make a model look real? i mean..i dunno uh... in airplane modelling..it depends on the detail of the sprues..sometimes paint the major parts like cockpits and all with paint..then assemble.. in terms of gundam u just use the marker issit?how much does a set of markers cost?
wcloudx SG I use markers since I'm not really what you called "Pro". Professionals use airbrushes for better colouring and details, and paints also. Gundam markers, example for panel lines uses is $5-$6 each. As for Gundam Marker sets, I don't think I've seen one selling here in sg before, but I ordered mine online for 1200 yen each set (5-6 markers). I have 3 sets of markers, so 16 markers total + 1 for panel lines
waverider75 SG Thank you, Had finished the God Gundam Hyper Mode together with Normal Mode couple days ago. [/img] The 1/144 Dendrobium is 1 big kit. Not just the length, but the width as well...it's like..wowww...where to place this kit if i built it.. I bought this item like more than 3 years ago, and now still in my storeroom collecting dust, no time and space to build also. Cannot resist to temptation because it is only $350, initial release with the DVD, hahaha...
