MG MSN-06S Sinanju Ver. Ka - Completo
It took 3 months, many late weeknights, 300 bucks worth of Tamiya paint, 28 bucks for the stand, 20 bucks for the water slide decals and some Mr. Mark Setter; which was sponsored by Ikan (thanks beb). This will be the last MG I work on for this year. Why? Firstly, this MG sapped a huge amount of mojo; I'm exhausted. And secondly, I ran out of display space in my dinky apt... lol. Anyways, here's some pics of the finished product. I dare not play much wiv it coz the paint made the whole thing hella stiff... ouch.

kellefe : Yo bro, good to hear your sinanju is in progress. Pearl white is basically a translucent paint; i.e. it's not a solid color. I'm not sure if you can get a 'rainbow' color effect from pearl white spray cans; the effect I got was more towards a glossy milky look instead. I'm not sure if this is what u want, but this is basically what I got.

|
What about the white tube? are you spray paint it white again? or just spray a finish coat on it?

Kellefe : I handpainted the gold trim after depositing the gold paint from the aerosol can into a small container. For stickers, I used water slide decals as it's much easier to apply than dry transfers.
|
|
|
|
and for the sticker ,
u using water slide decal or dry transfer decal ?
|
|
|
|
Its ok cmos~
by the way , how u settle the gold trim on the gold part ?

Btw Kellefe, I think you'd realize by now I'm running this site incognito... so I would prefer not to give out msn info... many apologies dude.

Kellefe : That's the basic idea. I would say, by the time I got the right shade I wanted, I would have used up around 3 cans, if I didn't make any mistakes. Plus minus a can or so depending on how intense you want the red. It's a personal choice... ;)
|
|
|
|
oic ..
which mean u used one can per layer right ?
do u mind give me ur msn so that we can discuss it more convenient ? thanks

Kellefe : Ok... here's what I did. I spray on just a single layer of silver. It has good coverage so no problems here. The red is not so straight forward. One layer would give you a pinkish look. 2 layers would give you a mild red. I stopped at a third layer of clear red. A forth layer might be too deep/intense for some. A sinanju may use about 3 cans of clear red. I made a lot of mistakes, so re-spraying took up an extra 2 cans. If you're careful, 3 should be just right.

Kellefe : Yeah dude... Clear Red is a translucent/transparent red. Um... nope... I haven't tried Mr. Hobby spray cans... but from what I read at gunpla forums... Mr. Hobby is as good, or even better than Tamiya ;)
|
|
|
|
oic
is the tamiya Clear Red is transparent red ?
do u try before Mr hobby spray can before ?
compare to tamiya which one preferable ?

Kellefe : Hi. Nope, I did not do a top coat. Basically, it's a single coat of TS-30 Silver Leaf onto the raw plastic, followed by several coats of TS-74 Clear Red with some time to dry in between each coat.
|

|
|
Hi ,
do u do gloss finish ?
example the Mr Hobby Gloss Top Coat ?
And do u do white primer before u spray the clear red ?
