I remember seeing pics from a modeling mag where the guy built the skeleton all from scratch. Anyone have those?

The GMG looks naked... sure as hell wouldn't be something Kamille would build :?
I would love to see a Hyaku Shiki done like that tough. Paint it red and you could really believe "3 times faster"

Painting/Priming / Airbrush, Airbrushing, and Compressor Questions

So you get fine spray then just air nothing happens after that?
Fine spray, just air, fine spray

What AB is it dual or single and what kind? Your trigger might be in backwards. Just a guess but it might not be depressing enough to get the paint in flow.
Dual. Press it down for air, pull it back to move the needle and get paint. The trigger is the same both sides. And yes, I've checked the needle. Its in right, it slides freely, no spray when its closed.

Use water when you try to check an AB, its free and flows through everything.
I've tried water too

No spitting, it just picks right back up spraying fine. Its happened sense I've had it, and I've completely cleaned it several times. As for thinness of the paint, it does it the just same if its paint or thinner.

First off, I got one of those cheep "powercat" ebay deals, so yes, I know I'll need something better
Here's my problem, I don't know if its the vacuum breaking or what, but here it is. The brush sprays fine for about a second (enough time to make two quick passes) then sprays just air for a moment. Thats just using the cup, using a bottle, its about twice as bad. Oh, weak (but constant) compressor only gives me 15-20 psi when spraying, and it doesn't seem like its just the pressure dropping. Does it for water, paint, thinner...

I think there's only 1 frame though, but 3 sets of outer armors...
I can already see the Dalong guy matching different colors to experiment, he's a fun guy.
He DID do ALL those camo ones

Finish my Kampfer... SOOOO much sanding... You have no idea
Then there's my Split track tank
...oh... and my Nu-v... shit...

Quote from: "FichtenFoo"Hydrogen Oxygen Polymorphic Engine
I hate to sound like some pretentious 'tard, but i was just kind of ping ponging this phrase around and realized why it seemed a tad awkward to me. I've been so used to 'properly' naming molecules in my Chem classes, that id recommend using either:
Hydrogen Oxide Polymorphic Engine
or
HydrOxide Polymorphic Engine
Only thing is, whether or not this changes the 'story' behind the name and the MS. Hydrogen Oxide is commonly known as water, and the Hydroxide Ion is the tail end molecule of every Alcohol. So im not sure whether the slight name change would completely change ur idea, but i just thought id throw this stuff out there incase u could use it.
-Oli
I gota say HydrOxide sounds better

Guess I'm the only one that does like the forearms I think the angle on the back of it is too much and it should be wider at the top, that flat surface just doesn't look right... The missile pods and the fuel tanks don't look "right" to me ether
I LOVE everything else, its all very awesome. And the side leg thrusters... I'm going to steal that, though I can't tell if you ment for that gap to be there or if it was too late to do anything about
I fully expect you to rip mine apart once its done

The lacquer should do a damn fine job of killing the ffa, but if it'll hurt the paint below, no clue
