Any of you guys interested in doing a Aoshima LB Works kit community build ??

I know a couple of you have one or more of the kits, they are fun super easy quick builds.

I thought there’d have to be a mini coming up to test out the 3x lens.

I have thought about doing another car but I’m trying to stay focused if the 2 MGs kits I want to build next. I’ll build one soon tho.

I think I’m only missing the police kit rofl

I'm always down to start a new build, though I don't have any of those kits in unstarted form. I think out of those I only ever had the 4door Kenmary.

I'm beginning to think I need vision-assisting items as well :lol:

That’s a neat looking but if kit Luke. Have you tried it and played with the different lens yet? I bet it’s a lot comfortable now with those thick sweat bands for padding
Yeah, for the fine up close detail work using the 2.5X, so good to be able to see the small details again like I use too. Should have got one years ago.
Yep, so much better, comfy!
I reckon with the 3.5X lense id be able to paint a MG pilot figure, would just need the right brush and paints
:oops: Correction! I have been using the 1.8X

All the ones ive seen you make and paint are excellent mate, the 2 piece design makes painting them so much easier.

You should get some of the Metal Color chrome silver, airbrush then buff with cotton ball. Perfect for the polished ali look.

I shouldnt have rushed them as they would have turned much tidier

I definitely need more metal colours to use for hoops. Way cheaper than a lathe :lol:

Those ones up there remind me of when people paint centers then sand away some surfaces to reveal the metal underneath... Very cool look!
