Gundai painting guide

[HjnA]

Is there website where I can see a step by step guide to paint a gandai model? I have never painted a model before.

Err...is it Gundam or Bandai you're referring to. I'm not an expert on this subject but if you go into Youtube and type either of the names I spelt out you might get a hit on what you need.

Cheers,

Thanks for your reply.

I do not mean tips guides like these. I have lots of those on Youtube. My thought was a guide that showed detailed instructions how to paint ex HG Gundam Gusion Rebake or different model with new paint and design.

Ah. You want how to paint rather than how to paint I’m afraid I can’t help you with that — the closest my interests come to this kind of thing is BattleTech.

Hi there,

If you want to just do plain painting there is that, then weathering if required. Alternatively there is pre shading then modulating main colours to suite and the weathering.

The style of painting using an airbrush is down to the effects you are trying to recreate/create. The choice is yours in the end as there is really no right / wrong way. It is down to what floats your boat.

Most importantly, have fun doing it.
