Comment on Gundam Unicorn WIP by alphaleo14
This is SO COOL! I love the idea of recoloring it, it really does look better in black and white. You're inspiring me a bit, for I have a lot of Gundam models I built back in high school that I want to redo. Back then I just made them straight from the kit with no modifications whatsoever (other than the decals) but now that I have an airbrush and other things I REALLY want to retouch them now. X3
damn it, u have airbrush, smething i don't have at all, i used hardware store's spray can for the color, it's very expensive to buy model kit spray here, i can only afford cheap hardware store's spray. make sure u make full use of your airbrush, if not i'm coming after u
That's AWESOME you're able to do that with cheap hardware store paints though, it's more amazing. XD I'm just curious what type of paints would be best for something like this. And I WILL make full use of my airbrush for other projects though, when school lets up and I have time for art. X3
well, according to exprences, hardware store paints don't stick that well to the model, i have to do a lot of sand papering to rough up the surface for the paint to stick better, airbrush is a better choice because u will be mixing some thinner into it and it well stick better on the plastic and u can have more choices of custom colors, well it's better to get model paint like Mr color or tamiya paint

AH okay... I'll have to remember Tamiya model paints and thinner whenever I get the chance. Thanks so much! X3
