That sounds about right. I've never really counted, sometimes it can take me a couple weeks just to find enough time to build.cosmicjellybean wrote:How long does it usually take you to do a kit?

I don't do a whole decal sheet, just the one's I like usually, but you could spend all day doing that! I found the 'pour type' Gundam markers are my fave way to panel line, Tamiya stuff put me off for the smell/ABS melting side effects...

I'm just not sure if I should disassemble the RG's into chunks or not, their skeleton is from softer plastic and I don't want to coat joints into place.
Should probably start with Justice's backpack thing.
@Tempy I'm pretty sure I've done some of the MG's in a day, but I know in lose my patience towards the end. Found it works better for me to space it out and give it all the same amount of attention. It's the same when I've done one leg and then start on the other, because I think I know what to do I start making stupid errors.
