Looking good. When doing car kits, I like to spray a coat of Tamiya Smoke to tone down the shininess of chrome parts. You wouldn't know the chrome parts were sprayed with Clear Smoke once dried.

How many coats of clear red did you achieve the color you wanted?

I haven't done the clear red yet. The one piece that's red came molded in that color. The clear ones are the ones I want to paint clear red.

Completed the Reborns Gundam. I used some Tamiya black panel liner on it.

Thanks! I put it on a stand and posed it (apparently that's a thing).
