Tips & Tricks
- For better results, some or most of the details are needed to be applied with Gundam Markers or Mr. Color paints.
- Topcoat (Mr. Hobby recommended) can be used to protect applied stickers and if any, marking decals and/or painted details.
- If using matte/flat-finish top coat, it is advisable not to spray on the translucent parts - can be done by masking or spraying top coat while the said parts are separated.
Notes & Trivia
- As with the previous two Gundam Aerial kits, the Gundam Calibarn also comes with an alternate red camera eye stickers that doesn't actually appear in the show.
