At the start of the video the subtitles say “ if you have a kid but you’re not sure how to start building it”

This was awesome! I got an RG Red Astray I've been sitting on for a good while. I'll have to pick up that chisel blade when i start that build.

Great demo with the exacto. I usually use the pliers and then just start sanding the nubs down but it’s so hit or miss. Definitely going to buy one this weekend!

Awesome, I just have recently purchased a tool kit but it did not have the x-action knife. I'll also get that to make cleaner model kits.

Hi bro! Awesome video! I'd still consider myself a beginner Gundam model builder (last model I've built was a High Grade kit, 15 years ago, without knowing these building tools). Now that I'm able to buy a Master grade (my dream Heavy Arms model) for my own, I'm afraid to even touch it haha. Anyway, more power to you and your channel. (P.S. Would like to know the name of the green grid mat though an where to buy it.) (PPS: Great video, but with some blurring issues, especially when we need to focus on the item, Samsung phone cam issue maybe?) Thank you

@aMilla can I mention if you look at a knife making store you can get adhesive backed sandpaper for making your own sanding sticks. Rhynowet is the brand I use 🙂

@aMillaGunpla Жыл бұрын

I usually use DSPIAE's adhesive sand paper, but that might be cheaper, thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks for this. What are the blade numbers for the Chisel and the one you use for Detail work? The Standard Blade is a #11, I know that much… and that’s ALL I know ! 😀

@aMillaGunpla 2 жыл бұрын

The chisel is #18, and the smaller blade is another brand, but you should be able to use the X-Acto #16 🙂

Please guys, always cut away from yourself, not towards.

@saifaldin_ Ай бұрын

And as somebody who had lost blood a few times to gunpla; I’d also like to add: be careful where you put your fingers, especially the ones not holding the knife. And don’t force yourself to do gunpla when you’re sleepy or too tired. That’s when accidents tend to happen. Get some rest and continue later.

Sorry to hear that! You could always make your own sanding sticks using sandpaper and popsicle sticks like I did in this vid. Sometimes it even ends up cheaper and better than pre-made sanding sticks!

As for the other tools, do you have an art supply store nearby? They may have some comparable tools you can use.
