  4. Thanks for the nice comments guys!

    @GunStray: the rough gray is a gray colored primer to prepare the kit for painting. But I use it to also serve the purpose to check for inconsistency.... like to see if the seam lines were puttied correctly, if the new panels lines were well drawn, if my modifications looks natural on the kit..etc.

  11. how did you plan out on where you put the panel lines.

  12. @Giovanni: I usually use a pencil and draw panel line design on the kits to see how it look first, the use chisel to make the actual panel lines.

    As for ideas, that just either come natural to what I feel would make the kit looks good, or take ideas from professional modellers.
