I like the way you make these build videos dude! And for taking the time to panel line and putting all the decals really helps alot when you can see all the contents of the kit and deciding wether a kit is worth the buy
I'm almost done applying the decals to this kit. Can't wait to top coat it! I initially used the green metallic stickers on this kit but wound up removing them and filling in the parts with metallic green Gundam EX markers. Looks much better!
All that’s left is Deathscythe and the G team is united once again. Btw, it would be great to see you put them all in dynamic poses together in the later video.
Man, i like the way you build. Very simple and clean! I hope you make a video on your step-by-step procedure on how the way you build and the tools and materials you use. Keep up the great work!
did you top coat or paint the inner frame at all? pause the video at 1:09 and the inner frame is so nice and clean. The Wing Zero Ver Ka maybe my next build. I plan on taking my time with it. and i mean taking my time. plan on making it my best one yet.
Yes I did topcoat inner frame. some parts direct on inner frame and some parts assemble armor then topcoat. depend on how complicated they are. overall just make sure all noticeable areas are coated
A newbie on Gunpla here. Just bought this kit on our local hobby store and haven’t started building it. I Was worried what matte topcoat to use on this model since there are plenty of brands. Good thing i saw the Tamiya TS-80 comment which was a life saver. Love the video bro keep it up! Maybe next time add some voice and some info to it. ♥️
Can I achieve this matte effect after assembling the model or do I have to apply top coat on each piece individually? It looks breathtaking man, great work!
Yes, you can. I also assemble then apply topcoat later. I normally apply topcoat by section like arm, leg, torso and etc then assemble them together later.
This is gonna help when I install LEDs in the Wing Zero. Also great job! (Edit) one question: Did you topcoat the Gunpla piece by piece or in each part of its body (Torso and arms etc)
From my experience, most cracks happened when the paint stuck in seam line rather than panel line. When the paint stuck in seam line, it takes longer time to dry which means more time to erode plastic. It could happen when you do panel line after assemble. It is better to do panel line before assemble for some parts. if you are not sure, just do panel line on each part first then assemble later. I use only black.
Did you have any trouble sliding in out the shield out of his gaunlets? Because theres a waterslide decal where you connect the shield and maybe it will rub off or has the topcoat protected it?
I just take the shield off first time. They are all fine. I also concerned about this point when i connected the shield so, i actually didnt slide it all the way to his gaunlet. Yes, topcoat protects decals but topcoat can be scratched as well so, I just hang the shield like so.
Can you tell me how to properly paint the eyes? From the looks of it you used a Tamiya clear green paint, let it dry, and paint it with a basic black color? Then let it dry, and carefully use a q-tip to remove the black paint from the raised edges. Did you use a Tamiya thinner or will 99% isopropyl alcohol will do? Wouldn't that remove the green too?
Clear green is acrylic paint. Black is enamel paint. if you use enamel thinner to clean up, the green paint underneath won't be removed because they are different type of paint.
I'm do with h this kit, I hope I can send you of my kit. I followed your method on this Video, thank you so much for your replies! More power to your channel
Hi May I ask, what black color did you use for the eye part paint? also, is this all the black color you used on your MG Gundam Wing EW kits? thank you! I've watch all your videos especially the your EW series
Use acrylic or lacquer paint to paint colors for the eyes. Then use black enamel paint for surrounding. Use enamel thinner clean up excess. acrylic or lacquer paint that you painted in the beginning wont be removed because they are different type of paint.
@@Armstudiogunplaspeedbuild thank you so much! I'm currently building Zero Verka Kit, and using your video as my guide and will follow your procedure 100%... =)
Black is enamel paint. clear green is lacquer paint . Use enamel thinner to clean up. Clear green wont be removed because they are different type of paint.
Hi sir, I don't have an airbrush yet, can I use a brush (as a replacement) to paint(black and green) on the eye part and the (green color) on the arms part. thank you so much!
@@Armstudiogunplaspeedbuild thank you so much! More subscribers to your channel! I look forward for MG talgeese I, II and III on your videos soon!!!! Thanks again.
Hey so I just bought this kit, would it be a good idea to top coat each part body part that you build or just spray the whole Gundam when finished assembling?
The goal is to make sure topcoat cover all area. If topcoat on whole kit, it will be difficult to reach some hidden area and also it hard to turn it around. I think better spray by each section like head, arm, shoulder, leg etc.
That is awesome Wing Zero. I have questions cause I like to build Gunpla one day. - this set is for beginners that I can build - do I have to put stickers - can this set make poses like the wings spread open - I notice deep line cuts that were scraped is that important
-I dont recommend this kit for beginner but if you really like it, you can start from it -It depends on you. Sticker gives more detail. This kit comes with waterslide decals. it takes more process than clear sticker but not as difficult as dry transfer decal. -yes -those lines call "panel line". I didnt do extra scribing. I just drop black paint to highlight them.
@@Armstudiogunplaspeedbuild I read that master is great for beginner. I'm not into painting cause I might mess up and stickers looks good but I prefer not. Also for black paint on the lines would u recommend it for beginner or not and wat is waterslide decals.
@@jamesdeadlocked6664 I dont recommend this kit for beginner because there are loose parts on body which need extra glue for plastic. MG is good for beginner but, if you dont mind about small parts. I would recommend RG. Waterslide decals is a sticker that you need to cut it from the sheet, soak in water then slide to the part. Panel lining makes kit look better. Yes, I recommend.
@@Armstudiogunplaspeedbuild I don't mind the small parts. I mean in Google it said master grade is good for beginners and also I like detail looks. I have no intention of putting stickers. I just like to assemble and do black lining.
Hey so I have another question, for the eye portions I assumed you used something like Mr Clear color clear green. Did you spray it on there or did you use a paint brush to get those clear piece green?
For this kit, I used air brush spray on it becuz there are some other clear parts. So,I painted them in one time. Sometime I use paint brush to paint the eyes as well. If the part is small, there are not so much differences between spray and paint brush.
I normally apply topcoat by sections like arms ,legs, torso etc. However, if that section has clear part, hidden area or difficult to reach, I will do it by pieces.
@@kuretsunaryuuki3804 clear sticker is precut and already has adhesive. It has clear thick edge noticeable. It can be pulled off but not many times. It will be deformed. Waterslide decal need to be cut, soak in water and slide to the kit. It has very thin edge. It can be moved anytime, if you put water on it. Topcoat must be applied otherwise it will fall off. Dry transfer decal need to be cut and rubbed on the kit. It doesn't have edge. No chance for mistake, if you stick it wrong, can't reposition. only can just admit it or rub it off.
@@Armstudiogunplaspeedbuild im looking to get this as my 1st kit. I know master grades are not really reccomended for begginers, but I have years of experience with the biggest most complex lego sets. How long did the whole process take you?
@@Hashishkov This kit is good but there are loose parts on its chest armor. Just glue them and it will be fine. I used to build lego too. They are different but not difficult. You can do it for sure. I dont build whole day and everyday. I normally spend 2 weeks per one kit.
bandai should copy the DEATHSCYTHE from dragon momoko 🤣 the badass one ....... dont they just admit its exceeds the expectation from bootleg brand 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That kit is based on tv ver. Currently, only wing proto zero is released. I think bandai will complete all 5 in someday but probably not fancy as dm ver.

@@Armstudiogunplaspeedbuild Thanks! May I know what color did you use to panel lining? Is it black or gray?
@@CoTroll It is black.
Hi, what clear green paint did you use for the clear parts? Or you did with airbrush?
I used Tamiya X-25 acrylic clear green painted with airbrush.
I notice the different tone between blue parts. Do you paint those parts or they have different color out of box?
They are different color out of box.
This is gonna help when I install LEDs in the Wing Zero. Also great job!
(Edit) one question: Did you topcoat the Gunpla piece by piece or in each part of its body (Torso and arms etc)
Yes exactly, but assemble clear parts after topcoat.
did you have any issues with cracking parts? And do you only use black liner for all of your builds?

@@d9_1056 Black is enamel. I think acrylic is difficult to clean up.

I normally apply topcoat by sections like arms ,legs, torso etc. However, if that section has clear part, hidden area or difficult to reach, I will do it by pieces.
@@Armstudiogunplaspeedbuild Thanks, very helpful. One more question though, do you apply that top coat before or after applying panel lines/decals ?
Topcoat after panel lines/decals
Did you paint this kit prior to building?
I applied flat topcoat on it. I mostly do it by section like arms, legs, waist, wing etc.
@@Armstudiogunplaspeedbuild thanks! That’s all I planned on doing to it, was panel lines and flat top coat
The waterslides decals should be applied after topcoat or before topcoat??
Before topcoat
@@Armstudiogunplaspeedbuild did u topcoat the wings too
@@mrlezac988 Yes, topcoat whole kit
did you panel line straight to the plastic or did you coat it before panel lining?
Straight to plastic

Do I need to top coat if I want to use the waterslides?
I highly recommend. Waterslide decals fall off easily. Mark setter would help but not as good as topcoat.
What panel liner did you use?
Tamiya panel line accent black
Do you use any additional paint?
I just use clear green on clear parts and flat topcoat whole kit.
