there are a lot of waterslide maker in ebay. maybe you can try to track down a reputable seller and try to give them logo and size you want for printing.
-
no. if you dont sell it, then you are just another modeller who really likes to customize his own work/model/toy.
-
Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

@no3ljm congrats on getting your grail. the fact that a lot of people are happy for you means that some of them (including me) has Vf-4 as their grail as well -
cant decide. I like all, except 1.
-
It is a different item but I got two shipment via registered SAL this month. Both shipment only took 3 days from posting to dispatch from Japan.
-
my only chance of owning an Armored Ozma was taken from me http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/shop/en/item_s-1796263.html
-
this is the reason why I bought the Tornado Parts for 25F even though I still have no 25F back then
-
18k to 20k for alto/ozma armors parts in mandarake are good as sold the moment they are listed so people really are serious. it is not about inflation, it is just about that the super parts are made to order and most likely will never get re-release. heck even the cheap (at release)yf-29 alto super parts were sold at 15k yen

you can seal it with the tamiya spray can and this will sort of work as a "save point" just in case you had a problem with enamel. you have to be careful with that Tamiya can though, afaik, their clear coat are lacquer based (which is fairly hot) and when ABS is soaked on it, it will crack and crumble. so just do mist coating (you can mask the Joints to be sure). I kinda agree with Ignacio's suggestion. YF-30 is already matte so weathering master or pastel (maybe white or very light grey) will be able to stick on it without problems. Just mask and apply it, and if you ever have any mishap, just use water to clean it back to original state.
-
afaik, drybrushing is used to weather model to simulate PAINT Chipping.
-
is it the valk with bewbs?
-
I read it when I use google translate on weibu or taobao(forgot which). So I assume as much since it was a common practice for china BL/KO gundam kit as well as complete different 3P kit, they have this habit of adding FIRST release extra to attract buyers.
-
each to his own. imo, the VF-0 in the OVA was rendered with very minimal weathered look. even the yf-30 rendered CG image has some sort of color fading.
-
afaik, the VF-1 is a first run premium for the toy. Succeeding batches will not have these. so if you PO now, yes, most probably you will get it.
-
if I have an AB, I would try this salt weathering to add color fade http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/57027-salt-weathering-techniques/
-
If you are having second thoughts on quality, checking out the review before buying is an option as well.
-
of course it has to do with the popularity and the over-all look of the valk or in this case, the color plus the fact that Bandai valk has always supplies issues (with the exception of the Tamashii online release which is made to order)
-
cool. I would've grab it if I saw it VF-11C at 30k yen. Did not know that this is that expensive. Last Yahoo Auctions for this item was only sold for 17.5k yen. http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/shop/en/item_s-1215338.html
-
ill buy 3P as long as it is not straight KO/BL.
-
It is still relatively in-demand in Yahoo auctions. minimum of 22 to 24k yen without commission so it is a lot better to get the 250 at Mandarake while they are still available.
-
OT: good luck applying that in China even Bandai took a lot of effort to get some results and all that KO company did is change their Legal name
-
i totally agreed up until the vf-2ss part anyway, I will support this for hopeful cheaper and varied Makorosu stuff
-
he has already done it, you can check the yf-30 thread
-
yeah, he should be convicted for the crime of hanging the Battroid/Valkyrie upside down.
-
I meant the third party team from China.
