nice kits sir, btw what did you use on the panel lines, marker or wash? great job on your wing ka...im having some balancing issues with mine when it comes to the buster rifle

 

I used a Sharpie Fine point permanent marker. Though permanent, you can actually rub it off with your fingers (or a dull knife) when you make mistakes. Having a steady hand helps. Also, the more you use these markers, the thicker the line gets, and it's harder to panel narrow grooves.

 

The buster rifle did give me a problem. I just "locked" the gun brace onto the elbow joint. It took a lot of tweakiing to get it right. I'm pretty sure I'll be getting the same problem with the Wing Zero, if and when I get it.

I tried modifying an RX-78 once. Tried markers and wash for panel lines but hated it. So I repainted them back and just knifed it to darken/deepen the lines. This way the lines look naturally dark, not just drawn black. If you can see the professionally done models on magazines you would notice that there is little or even no panelling done. Still, it depends on the hobbyist preference.

Are the GN-00 1/144 designations different from the 1/100?

 

The kits I have assembled so far are the Exia (01), Dynames (02), Kyrios (03). The virtue is designated as 04, and the Astrea is 05 (I'm supposing this is an upgraded model of the Exia since they basically look the same). I'm planning to complete these.

1/100. I've had it with the 1/144s. I want more detail and challenge. I'm basically "saving up" for the 1/60 PG Wing Zero.

 

If you haven't gotten it yet, set aside about 4-5 months of free time in order to file, primer, paint, and assemble the headache inducing, duling making SOB. Too many small parts parts, needs a lot of work, but in the end it's worth it if you did a good job.
