wow pretty good for first! Thank you so much I only regret that I used ceramic colors while I were supposed to use acrylic! Acrylic colors give better results (that's what I learned later).

not bad for the first try, yea acrylic is much better than ceramic although that gives it like a texture of battle damage in a sense XD.

I love the sculpture of this resin kit. I might buy another one and spray it all in gold! A friend told me that this design was originally created by High-Dream.

Nice work! Thanks for pointing out the difference in paint types. I have considered buying a couple resin kits, and will have to also experiment with what paint looks nice on a robot.
Your Grendizer came out very glossy. This is due to the ceramic paint?
Also, in the first pictures of loose pieces, are the small holes in the matching knee and elbow joints for small pins to hold the parts together? Glad you could share the project here.

Dude! That Grendy kit came out AWESOME!!!!!!! And, You're worried about messing up a paintjob for an SOC Great Maz? You did a damn good job painting this kit; and I believe you'll do just as good or better when you get ready to paint an SOC. Great job there, bro! zozo-Magengar

No, it's only lookin' glossy due to my stupid phone camera...But take my advice 'n use acrylic colors for much much much better results! Just be quick and ready with the colors you wanna apply on your resin kit cuz acrylic dry fast! Also, it's better if you buy a fine sandpaper to smooth some unwanted lil' parts before you go for the painting. The pins 'n holes are to only guide you on where each peace should be attached, but of course you will need superglue to assemble it 'n hold it together! Dude! That Grendy kit came out AWESOME!!!!!!!

Great job there, bro! zozo-Magengar Thanks so much, buddy <blush!> OK, guys...Now, I wanna show you a display stand I made! It's foam and acrylic plastic. After I put Dizer inside, I think it's better if I cut the 18cm X 18cm box a little bit from the front side, so Dizer doesn't look so far away...What do you think? ...or shall I better rotate Grendizer that way (as in the photo below)?

I can't decide which of those displays looks better. In #1, you can display smaller figures (Duke Fleed, and Maria gashapons) in the foreground out in front of his feet. In #2, you can display just Duke Fleed (gashapon) out in front of his left foot. But, certainly one or two small human pilot gashapon figures would go nicely with the display. zozo-Magengar

Does Egypt have an Ebay? Here's some leads from Ebay (USA)... shop.ebay.com/i.html?LH_BIN=1&_kw=Duke%20Fleed&_fcid=62&_jgr=1&_localstpos=&_sc=1&_sop=15&_sticky=1&_stpos=&gbr=1If you can't find any Duke Fleed gashapons, any small Duke Fleed figure will do. zozo-Magengar I can't decide which of those displays looks better.

eBay Egypt? You mean an eBay website in Arabic? No, but we can buy from it (that's how I got my GX-04S and this resin kit). Soon, the Double Mazingers -- I hope!

Nice! And, your autograph on the base there adds a nice classy "signed baseball card" touch. ;D

One to paint with acrylic in a more professional way and better colors, and one to paint all-in-gold! + Astroganga resin kit hmmm...
