Read MoreGunpla (plastic model kits) are a snap together assembly and do not need plastic cement to complete. We always recommend having some plastic cement handy as a part of your modeler's tool kit. If you prefer to fix your model in a particular pose then plastic cement will work. Plastic cement is also perfect to use if a joint is loose. Apply plastic cement in a single thin layer and allow it to dry completely before test fitting. Re-apply more cement if necessary.
Gunpla (plastic model kits) are designed to be built and displayed without the need for painting. Kits are molded in different colours replicating the colours of the actual mecha from the Gundam series. A technique called colour separation, where multiple parts of the model are molded in different colours on the same sprue is also used. Gundam kits often include stickers or water-slide decals that can be applied to the model to enhance its appearance. Some Gunpla kits come with pre-painted parts or parts with pre-applied details, such as metallic or translucent finishes.
Many modelers still choose to paint their kits to customize and add further detail. Painting allows for more creativity and personalization, enabling modelers to achieve unique effects, weathering, and colour schemes that may not be available out of the box. However, the kits are designed to be enjoyable and visually appealing even without painting, making them accessible to a wide range of hobbyists.
Both frames offer the same amazing articulation and customization potential for your SD Gundams. The main difference is purely aesthetic: the white frame provides a clean, neutral base for showcasing your colorful armor pieces and accessories.
The white plastic can be slightly more prone to showing minor scuffs or marks compared to the gray. However, many builders find the clean look outweighs this minor drawback. You can also minimize it by handling the frame carefully and avoiding excessive contact with abrasive materials.
Absolutely! The white frame creates a striking contrast with darker armor, making the details and colors of your SD Gundam stand out even more.
Yes, both frames share the same easy snap-fit assembly, making them ideal for beginners and experienced builders alike. No glue or complex tools are required, just follow the instructions and enjoy the process of bringing your custom SD Gundam to life.
