A small intro...

So, to get the formalities out of the way...

My name is Vu and an alias I like to go by is Sifu Seafood (I like compound rhymes). I just very recently got into the world of gunpla about 2 weeks ago from this post and I've enjoyed every moment of it so far!

I decided for my first build to be the HG G-Self. The main reason was G no Reconguista sparked in interest in Gundams again. The last show I watched was Gundam Wing and Endless Waltz which was like... a decade and a half ago.
Panel lining and matte topcoat.
With this kit I learned how to do practice all the basics... Which I don't think I need to go over in much detail. But at the very least, I learned how to remove seam lines with Tamiya thin cement and do some panel lining with a pen.

This was my 2nd kit.
With the Wing Gundam Fenice I learned how to do a panel wash. I'll never go back to pens (unless there calls for a specific reason)... haha!

Not only do you have more control, you have cleaner, smoother lines.

And my latest build... An RG Wing Gundam Zero EW with battle damage. Which will be on its own post!
