Figures/Model Kits - Doom Trigger - 10-01-2006

These are the ones that I've used so far..

Gundam Marker
Pentel Pen
Paint & brush(duh)
and quite recently I've been using CDR king's CD marker :bigsmile: .

Any other good ideas, I'm having problems reaching small hard to reach details..


- J.E_Magog - 10-01-2006

i used to paint my models with:
-aerosol spray paint
-acrylic paint(battle damage, mud, etc)
-.1 marker

pero ngayon tamiya hobby paint gamit ko.


- Fox - 10-02-2006

Depends on what i've got available and what kind of model i'm building.

Aerosol lacquers for large, flat areas (legs, wings, shields)

Enamels for details and smaller body parts (arms, feet, weapons)

Fine-point pens for panel lines, Markers for black areas

For first and basic grade models, i just use the enamels bought in hardware stores. I get basic colors only (green, red, yellow, blue, black and white) then mix them to create the color i need. For higher grades (HG and up), i bust out the fancier paints.

Example:

Instead of gunmetal gray for the beam rifle barrels, i just painted them black. I'm not skilled enough to use putty so the seams are still visible. Plus, i couldn't twist the brush enough so the front part of the knee joints are still white instead of gold like the back part of the knee joints.

ako ginagamit ko tamiya paint marker pati gundam marker pag nag kukulay ako ng gundam sa bahay

Spray 12 inches away...
Wave the spray can side to side, to form thin layers...
Let it dry, and spray again if you want thicker coats...

I use spray paints -I forgot the brand- and use the technique...

The last toy I spray painted on?
My Lightning Magnum, painted it black, edged it with gold...
Cool~ Black Lightning... Destroyed though, because of my damn heavy butt...


- Doom Trigger - 10-02-2006

TY for the reply guys :bigsmile: .
I have an HG Destiny gundam at my closet now, and am just wondering if what kind of paint and paint brush works best when adding detail. It's been a hit & miss affair since I started to paint my model kits, and i don't want to mess this up (tamiya, enamel or marker? Unsure )..


- Serene - 10-03-2006

Markers...
Just make sure you're alone and undisturbed...
I think you can layer this over paints...


- Doom Trigger - 10-04-2006

What kind of markers do you recomend(sory sa kakulitan ko)? I've only used Gundam and cd markers so far. Are there better alternatives :mellow: (what did you use with yours?)


- Serene - 10-04-2006

Tamiya is good...

OKay, the message wasn't for me but i seem to remember seeing one in Greenhills a couple of months ago. It was somewhere in Shoppesville, near the circular area with a lot of electronics, toys and video games. I don't remember which lane it was but it was pretty much near the back of the place. Its a bit of a maze to get there, but the entire back section of the lane is filled with toy stalls. YOu might wanna ask for directions if you plan to go there.
