"Without heavy customization." Proceeds to customize the everloving hell out of it.

[@SerenadeURA]

I think it's an issue of what you define as "customization". They sell metal detail kits and resin addons and things like that, and beyond that, there are people who add a lot of spare parts or plastic board in order to give a kit some extra flare. Aside from the plastic rod getting added to increase the waist height, by my definition, he didn't customize it much at all, just polished the details that are available right out of the box.

[@citizen_grub4171]

@@SerenadeURA This isn't a matter of personal opinion. If you alter something to suit your tastes or needs, it is no longer stock. You have customized it. In this instance, rather heavily. He's added custom detailing and panel lines, both of which take quite a bit of time and effort.

[@SerenadeURA]

@@citizen_grub4171 well I guess he needs to start titling these videos "without custom parts" so that pedants like you won't get your panties in a wad over it.

[@citizen_grub4171]

@@SerenadeURA There's nothing pedantic about saying he customized it. It's funny seeing the only person slinging insults in a conversation claiming that the other person has their panties in a wad. You've made me laugh today. Thanks for that.

[@OdwallaJuice]

I'd personally consider this pretty light customization. He didn't add new panel lines or details, only made existing ones more prominent. Painting and panel lining is not heavy customization either. I think the title is fine. Definitely a project someone would get done in a few weeks to a month max.

Thanks for the tutorial. I just got a Perfect grade Gundam as a gift and was in way over my head with that scale and detail. I used to make warhammer models which uses a lot of the skills you put on but I still learned a ton. Gonna start with some zakus before I try with him.

Great video. Thank you for creating these back to basics tutorials. Question on the painting section. Do you immediately do the wet coat after the mist? Or do you set that piece aside to let the mist coat dry and come back to it for the wet coat? Thanks again!

I love this series, it helps a lot to learn new things and improve your self, I have one question, what is the white thing you use to put in the thrusters before you paint it? And which is the thinner rate for water base paints when you paint with brush?

2:33 What product is that? I can't read the label or figure out why you're using it. I've been looking for gunpla videos like this. I've been collecting the Trails of Cold Steel divine knights as they're being released, and I want to do the best job I can on them.

[@micahepstein7227]

Amazing as always! I've learned so much watching your videos. One question--what kind of topcoat did you use? (Lacquer or Acrylic?). I usually lacquer topcoat but wonder if it would hurt the acrylic-painted details.

[@TheCvlt]

So, 1 thing that always confuses me is the paint thinner and the panel lining. Doesn't the paint thinner dissolve the top coat as well? Or is there an in between step of varnishing that wasn't shown?

[@SparkRattle]

depends on what time of cement do you use. but to be safe, leave if for an hour before proceed with sanding. some cement takes faster than that to fully dry
