Welcome to Building for Beginners (BfB), it's for builders just getting their feet wet in the gunpla hobby.
The goal of this tutorial series is to show new builders how to build a great looking model out of the
box using only basic tools.
If you're already building at this level, and you want to take your skills even further; check out the
Sinanju start to finish series. The Sinanju series covers a wider range of more advanced techniques.
Some sections of this tutorial will feature "Pro tips". These tips will offer some additional advice related
to the content of that portion of the tutorial; which while it may not be essential it is helpful.
I will be building the Real Grade Justice Gundam for this tutorial. I chose this kit for a couple of reasons:
the Justice packs a lot of detail and features into a small kit, the color scheme is a nice departure from
the normal tri-color Gundam, and it's very affordable at under $30 with free prime shipping through
Amazon (If you have a college .edu email address you can get six months of amazon prime and
instant video for free).
The topics to be covered are:
Removing parts from the sprue, sanding, and assembly
Panel lining
Decals & details
Topcoating
