Gunpla Mech Mods: Polishing Airbrush Nozzle
http://hobby-photos.blogspot.com/2012/07/polishing-aribrush-nozzle.html
WARNING: Doing this might damage your nozzle. Polish at your own risk. This is how I polished the inside of my airbrush nozzle. I was not satisfied with just thinner in removing dried up paint. 2 Rolled tissue (if you roll it really fine, it would reach the outside of the nozzle). 3 Tamiya polishing compound. Taped the other end of the tissue to fit the drill chuck. Mounted the drill on a table clamp like so:. Managed to get a picture of the polished nozzle. This is a 0.2mm nozzle.

Gunpla Mech Mods: July 2012

Drop-in Mod for Airbrush Compression Spring. Chopping / cutting off the airbrush compression spring is one of the AB mods I wanted to try out. Since I didn't want to chop / cut my stock needle spring, I found out that the springs you find in a Rear Sliding Damper and Brake Set for Tamiya Mini 4wd (15198) are a perfect fit. Here they are shown compared to the original spring. When put together, it is two coils less than the original, one too many than I hoped for. Trigger pull : Needle retraction. This is...

Gunpla Mech Mods: Dry Brushing Using Ordinary Paper
http://hobby-photos.blogspot.com/2012/03/dry-brushing-using-ordinary-paper.html
Dry Brushing Using Ordinary Paper. You read that right! Ok, so here's a really simple way of doing weathering on your model kit. I sprayed on silver (industrial spray paint) on plain paper, let it dry, then cut a small piece. Rubbed the painted side on the tracks of this kit (border break heavy guard). May not work with all types of paint. only those with "powdery residue" like flats, or in this case, silver. ZeddArckham v4.0.1. 2012 Mechapinoy OmniMecha Contest: Apocalypse Now!

Gunpla Mech Mods: November 2011
http://hobby-photos.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Making an Explosion Effect. Fiber Fill (those found in stuffed toys). Button cell battery (CR2032). A couple of strong little magnets. Hot glued the magnets on the inside part where the battery would mount. The batteries would easily attach to the magnets. On this project, I used a total of four individual LEDs. Here it is with lights off and on. I joined this in the recently concluded GBWC (Gunpla Builders World Cup) Philippines. Here it is on display at Robinson's Ermita. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Gunpla Mech Mods: Clips Parts Holder For Airbrushing
http://hobby-photos.blogspot.com/2012/02/clips-parts-holder-for-airbrushing.html
Clips Parts Holder For Airbrushing. Here is a new batch i made for my parts holder, with a twist! This was reinforced using good old masking tape. Compared to the ones most modelers use. So why did i even bother changing the position of the clips? The marked area is where you hold them when taking them on and off your styro base. As you can see, the one on the right gives easier access with minimized risk of touching other parts. Here is a common scenario using the traditional set up:.

Gunpla Mech Mods: HG Astray Red Frame WIP
http://hobby-photos.blogspot.com/2011/08/hg-astray-red-frame-wip.html
HG Astray Red Frame WIP. This is for the GBWC 2011 :D. The two parts of this torso is a nightmare for masking as well as the leg parts. Here are some pre paint mods done for easy slide on of parts once painted. Sorry for the poor quality pics, my cam is still busted. Cut off all pegs on lower part (encircled). The L markings on the red part were filed down to accommodate those on the grey part. Arm and lower leg mods. Sliding the red parts on the lower leg. ZeddArckham v4.0.1. Making FMX, FMVS or FMS2.
