Is there a difference between these two besides color

I've never made a gumpla before but have experience in warhammer and want to know if one of these is better, I'm planning on painting it. Any help would be appreciated

Need some advice regarding Panel Lining.

I recently started using Tamiya Panel Liner Black for my gunpla. Now, I'm used to markers, and so I usually color my lines when I cut out the part and directly wipe it clean - I'm impatient like that.

I KNOW the liquid panel liner needs to dry a bit before giving it a wipe with thinner. But, like I said, I'm not the most patient one out there. So maybe I need to change my way of working?

What I really like to know is:

should I do panel lining during or after completely assembling the gunpla kit?

AFTER! You can do everything all at once.

During assembly.

Use markers for small details during assembly. Do all bigger ones afterwards.

I'm relatively new to this hobby - less than a year - and I only just started looking into more advanced techniques, so all advice is accepted.

So I've loved modeling and gunpla forever, but recently I was diagnosed with early onset rheumatoid arthritis and mild hand tremors.

Modeling has been difficult and painting even more so. If there is anyone out there that can offer some advice on how to deal with this, or would it be better to just give up and try and find a new hobby?

Gunpla help!

This has been bugging me for ages now: What do I do with the leftover runners? Do they belong in the recycling bin, or in the regular trash?

En nog eens in het Nederlands voor het geval er Belgen hier zijn die ook van Gunpla houden:

Moet het afval van mijn Gundam bouwpaketten in het PMD of het restafval?

I'm asking this wherever in hopes someone has an answer, I recently bought the FM Aerial, when I opened it I found it seemingly was missing the Decal sticker sheet. Is there anything I can do about this or am I just shit out of luck until I can find a replacement for sale

Okay. So. I kind of hurt my wrist working on the MG Shin Musha Gundam (Which is finished. Wish I had a better camera so I could show it off).

I want to work more on my other models, but my wrist keeps feeling sore. I’ve tried looking up stuff about wrist strain with building models, but I can’t find anything.

So. Tumblr Gunpla community. Any tips, or advice? Would appreciate almost anything.

Reaching out to the gunpla community I need some advice. I have a new airbrushing set and I am using acrylic paint to paint my 1/144 zaku. The problem is the paint has started to become too watery to use and is starting to run. Please any advice on what I can do or in general?
