                        I have been contemplating a gundam dio for years now, but never got around to it. I need some advice. Help kudasai! I am good with MG kits so please factor the 1/100 scale-ness in when you reply. Thanks!

                        PS: I'm also abit of a newb in the realistic painting area of mecha as well, so feel free to let the knowlege flow like coolent out of a busted Zaku II head.

                        Some people spend their whole lives wondering if they made a difference. Gundams don't have that problem.

                        How about the proof-of-concept using 1/144 gunplas. ^ ^
                        The are cheaper so if you screwed up at least you haven't lost much...
                        Also if you are going to use off-the-shelf scenery building kits those N scale kits are much cheaper than HO scale kits...

                        Once you are happy with the result you can try using 1/100 kits...
                        people living in glass colonies shouldn't throw nuclear stones.
