HG Hyaku Shiki Revive #3

Testing on gold color.

Base on same airbrush (HP-CR 0.5mm), and at constant pressure (28 psi), same primer (GSI 1200 grey) and same base coat (Gaia gloss black + Gaia EX03). Testing with Gaia 122 star bright and Mr Color SM 207. 

According to GSI web site, SM 207 require a coat, hence I use EX03. 

For comparison purpose, I also applied mr color acrylic H30 as coating on Gaia 122. (PS : was using EX03 first, but end up it melt the gold paint hence have to redo and use acrylic base clear gloss). In addition, it might not be necessary to do a clear coat on star bright. The clear coating does impact the reflection of the surface, while it is still shinny, it gives a different effect. 

Compared to Spray can, the outcome is a lot better but is it the best the paint can do, certainly not. 

Will have to test again with different air pressure and try again.
