Camo gundam DONE

well, dont apologise. You are here to learn, and this is a good enviroment (compared to some others)

When doing gundams, seams are always an issue.  Always prime before you paint, to see if you missed a seam.  Very VERY diligent with them, you will master it.

Well here are the final pics of it done

Almost done with it all I have left is the thruster here are some pics

Just a little up date got some weathering done and some battle damage done. I also put a decal from a gundam decal set on his left shoulder I thought was a cool one for like a recon team. C&C welcome

Technical and Historical Notes

That explains it. I like the F-91 designs. I've been thinking of building a HardyGun for a while now. Any build tips?

The only real tip is to just make sure you get the seam lines real good they were pretty bad on the 2 I have from the F 91. But other then that the werre realy no probs.

That looks pretty good. I've used silly putty as a mask before, but not for camo. The demarcation lines look good and sharp, I may have to try it out. What specific gundam is this? I like the design of it.

Thanks man it's the F 91 RGM-109 gundam I also have a f 91 gun cannon I am doing in the same paint to make it look like a recon team.

camo on Gundams is fun. I took photocopy line drawings of my Kempfer and made all sorts of drawings and sketches to figure out what I wanted. In the end it turned out to be all gloss white. Looked like a Patlabor when I got done with it!

My very first gundam was the Serpent Custom HG and I did it in grey/tan custom paint and used a tecnical pen to make thousands of dots in designs over the entire surface.  Took a while but it looked good!

My next will be Zakus with tan/ dark yellow camo.
