Paint Stripping via Acetone

Credits to sir vanz of GMAC / MAC :)

Materials you'll be needing~





Apply some acetone on the cottons~




Rub it on the part/piece to be stripped~




Viola~ :D





Verdict~
IMO, this is more effective than using denatured alcohol..I haven't tried using IPA's for paint stripping, so can't compare it yet to IPA..and oh, using this one for paint stripping sessions is so...exhausting :))..

Progress so far (WIP Strike Freedom FBM)

I'm already done painting the whole frame and some of the armor parts of my SF, and if you'll ask me right now..I think I can finish this guy by this week. The only problem that's stopping me on finishing this guy is the Flat White that's not available here in my place. YES, it's NOT available..I already looked/asked EVERY HARDWARE here @ Castillejos Zambales, and at Olongapo! which pisses me off <_<..anyway, here's my progress so far.. Till my next post! :D

MG Blitz Gundam Ver. Amuro

Hello! My long gunpla break is over. And yes, finally done working with this guy! This kit also marks my return in Gunpla after going on a hiatus for almost a year and a half (moved to playing airsoft) . Photo(s) we're taken by " Modus " (of ModPink Design Studios), a very close friend of mine (He's like my brother from another mother hehe). Everything we're hand-painted using Tamiya Acrylics. And I swear, this will also be the last time I'll handpaint using Tamiya paints. I will be switching over to either Citadel and/or Vallejo paints. Tamiya paints gave me a headache. Seriously, I have to strip and paint most of the parts OVER AND OVER AGAIN just to make it right. Weathered the kit because I plan on making or putting it on a diorama. Not sure when, but you bet I'll work on it after my next build. Anyway, I now present to you... My MG Blitz Ver. Amuro! Thanks for viewing~ Still need to work on my h...
