Toothpicks are used for stirring the paint that the stuff inside are well mixed. If you paint directly from the bottle like i do. I helps to stick a toothpick in there , stir it now and then to prevent it from drying up.
Bottle
Any bottle! Well , this is a must. Bottle filled with water to wash your brushes when you're done.
Brush
I use 3 different sizes of brush. The fine brush is good for painting tiny parts such as eyes for your HG1/144 models or sangokuden models. Medium and large brushes are for larger surface(duh) lol.
Tissue paper
Tissue paper for wiping your sweat after a long day of building gunpla! LOL ofcos not my friends. Tissue paper are used to dry your brushes after you've washed them , so that you may continue to use them. You don't want wet brushes to dilute your paint.
Rubber eraser
Rubber eraser is for cleaning up your panel line mess.
Tamiya scissors
The blades are thin , they're good for cutting out gunplas from their runners.
Blue tack
Blue tack is good for holding pieces together for painting , it can be used to hold pieces to be left for dying too. One of my most important tool in painting ^^
Newspaper
To understand worldly affairs before we begin our gunpla! LOL , duh. Newspaper are to be spread out before we begin painting to prevent the paint from destroying our beloved tables and floors.
Sandpaper
Sandpaper is for removing rough edges. I often use sandpaper to thin the handle of my weapons before painting them , so that they would fit better after painting.
