@askDNA this is a hobby I've always wanted to get into.

I custom painted a single Transformer once

@Thenerdyverseofmadness It's been quite fun! Can recommend.

@askDNA do you airbrush? Or hand paint?

askDNA, 5 months ago

@Thenerdyverseofmadness Lucky for me, gunpla requires no painting. Although I may get some markers to touch up places where I couldn't sand out the plastic stress marks.

@askDNA oh, is it just model building? I had a friend who painted Gundams

@Thenerdyverseofmadness I think it's a thing for some folks. Could probably make it look really realistic if one got really good at painting them. For my first attempt, I'll just be happy to get some decals nicely aligned.

@askDNA Oh dude, I get that feeling! I'm so anal with just the Lego ones haha

@askDNA @Thenerdyverseofmadness welcome to the slippery slope of Gunpla! Your wallet will never be the same again ;)

@BongoMcnulty @askDNA hahahaha. I don't think my wallet can handle another expensive hobby hahaha

@Thenerdyverseofmadness @askDNA oh, it's all "I can't afford it" at first, but you'll be building MG Shinanju's and Sazabi ver.Ka's in six months 😂

@BongoMcnulty @Thenerdyverseofmadness Not going to lie, I've been looking at more.

@askDNA @BongoMcnulty OH, I'm sure maybe one day!!
