Hobby Japan ‘ぜんぶ塗らない模型製作のススメ’ Arrives for Faster Builds

Overview

• Hobby Japan drops ぜんぶ塗らない模型製作のススメ, a smart guide to finishing kits faster without compromising satisfaction. It speaks to builders who want momentum and quality in the same workflow.
• The book expands a popular magazine feature into a full-bodied reference. It reframes “all-or-nothing” painting as optional, and doubles down on efficient prep, selective detailing, and finishes that look premium out of the box.
• Coverage spans Gunpla, MODEROID, and scale models. Techniques embrace today’s color-separated tooling, targeted panel lining, texture-aware topcoats, and quick-hit accents that upgrade surface depth.
• You get 14 total builds, including four new examples using different methods. The aim is simple. Reduce full-paint steps where it makes sense, keep the joy high, and clear that backlog with pride.
• Specs are clean and useful. A4 format. 2,200円（税込）。Published 2024/10/01. 電子書籍版あり. It’s designed as a go-to you can reference at the bench and actually use.
• This hits the moment. “タイパ” thinking is shaping hobby culture. The book champions intentional shortcuts, not corner-cutting, so more kits make it from sprue to shelf in style.
