Need a sanding tutorial

Got a tip to share? Have a question about the hobby? Need input on parts or weapons? Have great idea for a custom figure or vehicle? Too lazy to do it, or just want to share the idea with others? All that and more goes in here.

Hi everybody!

Does anyone could tell me where to find a good sanding tutorial?

Thx for the help.

Could you be more specific what you're trying to do? I mean, basically, you just run sand paper over a part until you get it to the place you want it. For smoother results, use some water to moisten the area being sanded. Use heavy-grit paper if you need to make major modifications, fine grit if you just need to clean up edges or remove paint or something. Is there something in particular you're trying to accomplish?

Thx for the reply. And yes, what I want to do is to "erase" Bigboa's straps.

Do you have a dremel? If so, use that to get off the bulk of them. If not, just use regular sand paper. After that, I'd suggest getting some needle files to do the detail work (I imagine you want to preserve the muscle structure). Just take it slow.

Thanks Darko. I have to get a moto-tool. :whistling:
