RGM 79G HGUC 1/144 Weathering effect

[@backpain100]

This is amazing work for such little tools. You enhanced the plastic base color with enamel thinned paints, which also bring out the shadows and breaks the monotony. It also save you time because we don't have to paint a base coat. Then you dry brush on top of it to bring out the highlights and weathering. Very resourceful.

Simple yet versatile, this is so great!

are those decals or water slides

Amazing work!!😊

Hi first of all awesome work What water decals are you using?

[@Glimax]

Beautiful job as usual! Love it ♥

[@alexandergonzalezblandon1604]

Una duda: cuánto tiempo dejas secar el lavado de pintura para luego remover los excesos?.

[@sentientmeat8975]

For starters, beautiful work. I’m really impressed at the results that you’ve managed to get with this technique. I’ve used the similar technique for finishing off my warhammer models once painted. I’ve recently diverted from warhammer to start collecting Gundam and I wanted to ask you a question. Your using mineral spirits/white spirit to remove the enamel paint from the areas you don’t want… it’s very similar to what I do with my warhammer but I’m curious to whether the enamel paint or white spirit would damage the plastic? The plastic from Bandi products seems to be of a lesser quality and I’m concerned about erosion or a reaction when painting with enamel and use of white spirits… Is there a way that you combat this? I’m assuming you do a clear coat before painting with enamels but is that sufficient prevention of contact between the two compounds?

[@tristanharvey6880]

Awesome video, did you use the earbud once the paint dried or when it was still wet?

[@WrathschildFink]

Great video. I am wondering, do you bother filling seams?

[@joewang3748]

This is amazing! Is the initial model (before the weathering) completely painted, or do you just touch up, apply decals, and panel line?

Hey there! I don't own this particular gunpla (I'm just strating in the gunpla hobby, and I currently own just 3 gunplas), but, from what I know, every single gunpla kit you buy (or at least, above 90% of them) are already painted, you just hace to assemble them! but, if you love minis painting like me, the real magic happens when you add those "extra colors" by painting your gunpla kit!

[@yodhanhunter]

Amazing as alwayd

[@lucanivini6664]

Beautiful work! What paint do you use for the initial brown wash?

[@nottoscale6529]

TAMIYA ENAMEL XF-10 and XF-1 mixed up

[@lucanivini6664]

@@nottoscale6529 thank you for the quick answer! Do you think the same effect can be achieved with thinned acrylics?

[@nottoscale6529]

@@lucanivini6664 No, because acrylic paint dries too quickly.

[@lucanivini6664]

@@nottoscale6529 okay, thanks for clarifying. How much time do you wait before removing the enamel?

[@nottoscale6529]

@@lucanivini6664 Dry can be wiped off immediately.

[@mrgojobean506]

Should I put the decal first or weathering it first?

[@nottoscale6529]

Decal first.

This is awesome!

thanks 🥰

Was it painted? Or just literally weathering?

wohooo another amazing work 🔥🔥. for the dry brusing what is that product you using? the one you mix brown & black

[@nottoscale6529]

Acrylic color any brand.🙂

[@HydraSperati]

Just had my first weathering venture on a MG Hi-V ver ka... what a mess. I don't think oil washes are as effective as enamel, airbrush varnish is not adequate and will rub off, and waterslide decals do NOT like the weathering process.

[@janlim0916]

Did you topcoated afterwards?

[@nottoscale6529]

No, I don't topcoat.

[@freckles6558]

This turned out so well, amazing job 👍 I’m curious, do you panel line with tamiya before a matte top coat, or do you use a gloss topcoat > liner > matte topcoat?

[@nottoscale6529]

Panel line before mette top coat. 🙂
