I recommend not coating the frame unless you're using an airbrush and can mist coat, because coating makes the parts tighter. At least you got a cool kitbash 😁

Now I'm using DSPIAE's single blade nipper

Never touched a daban kit in my life 👍

Yea I did find someone that does that but the price is 1/12th of the kit for 2 joints, I'm not sure if that's worth it than buying a new chest unit

Yes. Go to any 3d model repository website and type in Gundam to see all kinds of stuff

Thank you! I actually already built all the WFM kits 😅 I'm trying to catch up with 00 kits

@@knitehobby Good luck sir! They are rare but you can do it.

@@carlchristianredota1605 They will be having a reissue in the second half of 2024 so hopefully I can pick some up!

Nope, your solution was the first thing I thought of but I don't have the tools for it, for now I have blutack to hold the arms til I find someone selling a replacement 😅

@@knitehobby i have some tip, next time use some silicon oil when building a kit with plastic to plastic pegs it will smoothens the hole and pegs so it won't stress the plastic that much. That's what i do when building 3rd party kits.

I think I'm gonna lay off the MGs for a bit 😅

Sprayed Mr.Hobby's Super Clear Matt coat

At my local hobby store

It's limited to the first batch, I believe they are on the second batches so it might be tough to find a first batch one

Pelan2 aja rakitnya, jangan di oversand utk nubmarknya biar hasil yg halus

Sticker plamo tergantung surfacenya utk tahan lama atau ga. Rekomen pake acrylic marker DSPIAE utk warnain yg kecil2 drpd sticker. FRS bagus2 semua menurutku

​@@knitehobbypunya lu Masih aman kah stickernya?

​@@knitehobbyNah tapi masalahnya saya gk ada pengalaman bang buat warnain sendiri, ga pernah malah, takutnya malah akan merusak, tapi mau cari yg udh di warnai org juga susah, gk ada yg jual

Iya emng susah nyari yg repainted, punya sy sih ga pernah dipegang2 jd stickernya aman

Iya pinset / tweezers apa aja bisa, lebih enak kalo ujungnya lancip

@@knitehobby spill merek yg di pake apa bang atau ada rekomendasi nya barang kali

Sy pake punyanya dspiae, merk apapun oke aja sih paling murah punyanya wave

Thanks! The easiest way to get clean lines are to rescribe the existing lines which is what I'm trying to learn on. I forgot to take off the gold parts when topcoating so now everything is matte haha, and yes the plastic is a tight fit.

@@knitehobby wow for something thats matte coated, the shine is still there. Is that why the gold part on the helmet looks darker? Would've liked to try scribing on this one but knowing that its all abs seems like a problem for the panel liner to seep in. What scribing tool did you use?

I accidentally scratched the paint off the v-fin so I tried to recolor but it's a different shade of gold so oh well.. I'm using dspiae's tungsten scriber

iya soalnya designernya sama

It's the first batch, I don't plan to get the V2 but from the image I think it's just a color revision

Ver.2 comes with average clear parts(not prism) and the antenna is yellow(not gold like ver.1) People got wrong info that the clear parts is the bonus but actually clear parts is part of the set. Prism color was specialty of 1st batch not the clear parts itself. The actual bonus is the gold frames. These are still provided with current batches but who knows when its done.

Thank you!!

Thank you! I love the dynamic of this kit so much

Yep, topcoated the whole thing

@@knitehobby thanks for replying, what finish did you use? matte or gloss?

I almost always go matte, gloss for kits that are majestic like the MG wing zero ew haha

Water slide decals merk G-Rework

Mann I really want to but everyone is selling it overpriced 😥

Dapet yg first batch yg ada clear effect partsnya

@@knitehobby yang bacth 2 gak part clear nya gak ada efek yaa

Kykmya engga dapet, tpi ini mereka barusan release yg ver 2.0, warnanya lebih cakep

@@knitehobby tapi clear part nya gak ada efek Polaris nya kan ?

Kurang tau

Thanks man! I hope I can get my schedule fixed tho haha

comparing with the recent release, honestly eclipse is pretty cheap haha

Same here, second place in my collection behind the MGEX

Tamiya accent color black

Welcome to the hobby! I don't use primer at all as they are used for repainting. I only do clean builds which is snipping and cleaning the excess nubs. Then I panel line and decal + top coat some of my kits.

@@knitehobby thanks for replying! cant wait to get into dept with this new hobby!!!

Thanks bro 😁 I've been busy with finals so next vid will take some time haha

@@knitehobby even if it takes 100 years to wait I'll be there to watch your video 😆

Better not, it's very small

@@knitehobby what should I do😭 I forgot to put the little one inside before and I wanna put it back

Oh if you haven't place the pilot in then just do it, disassemble some parts and you should be fine. But I don't recommend pulling it out too often because it can be fragile

@@knitehobby which part of the body should be disassembled 🤔

Uhm I forgot, just disassemble the parts until you're at the part where the pilot is suppose to go in the manual

There's only the MG and MGSD barbatos, but personally I think the MGSD is more unique

I only have time to build in weekends but I think around 9 hours? Excluding decals and panel line

I see.. thanks for the info
