Cant complain. Good work on the hornet. :rock:

Looks beautiful!

Found some time to paint up RKF Kamen Rider Saber.

I had this figure sitting in my to-do bin for the longest time.

Cool figure. I skipped the SHFs for Saber so I'm pretty pleased with this result. The one thing that bothers me is that the sword is such a tight fit in the hand and it's made from a soft plastic so all the paint on the handle just rubs off and leaves traces in the hand. Oh well, I'm just gonna leave it in his hand anyway.

The whole right arm was repainted in metallic red which may or may not eat away at the joint. Only time will tell! A couple more picture here: https://imgur.com/a/5ZcPdyO

Also, I tried printing some stickers out for the Wonder Ride Book, but because I use a clear sticker and it goes on to a black surface, it didn't turn out good at all. I will have to look at alternatives.

RKF Saber is already fanastic, but wow - beautiful. I've started painting more RKFs and I don't think I'll ever reach your level because I'm too afraid to mess with the super super tiny details. I just painted up Calibur and Rogue, myself.

You ever thought of using nail polish to paint? Maybe even as a coat? Once it's fully dry it never rubs off. Sadly, I believe every RKF actually has that issue where the weapons are just too big for the hands to hold too well - let alone paint. It's my one gripe, but I still love the line.

Yeah I actually use clear nail polish on the eyes. Works pretty well but the smell lasts a long time!

Yo this is fantastic!

(and reminds me I need to paint my saber so-dos)

Finally got around to printing a tiny sticker

SO-DO Kamen Rider Decade Complete

Just a lot of silver paint. The face sticker was awful and I had no luck using paints, so I just used the stickers on top of paint. I cut the stickers up a little to make them sit on the parts better.

Love the suit. I don't collect final forms but how can you not love this?

Shishi! How do I tell if I overthinned into paints? I feel like my citadel black and gray are not adhering, possible due to the addition of air brush thinner (I used it to help transfer the paints from the pots to some bottles).

You can tell if paint is too thin if its not adhering!

But first, did you prime your paint subject? Citadel paint is not going to stick well to raw plastic like SO-DO.

Adherence is pretty much the big tell. You should always go very easy on the thinner because its easier to add it than remove it. The only real way to reverse the thinner is to get more paint and mix it back in again.
