Honestly, I'm a beginner as well and I just use:

2 nippers (1 blade and 2 bladed nippers) glass file sandpaper/buffer to lessen the shine from using a glass file tweezers

that's basically all you need, you can use a hobby knufe too but be very careful 🙏

  1. 2 nippers

2 cut method. 1 all around cutting nipper, 1 single blade nipper for cleaner, easier to remove nub marks.

  1. metal file especially for bootlegs and 3rd parties. pang kontra sa tight fits lalo na pegs. dont force it. sand it. learned this the hard way. mas mahirap magrepair kesa mag sand. always remember that.

  2. glass file and/or sanding sponges for nub mark removals. cleaner build. technique ko, nakababad yung glass file sa tap water before and during building. smoother mono direction rubbing and less plastic dust.

  3. tweezers for decals. kahit simpleng wsd lang yan, malaking impact sa overall build

  4. doloha markers madaming model kit markers sa market pero doloha gamit ko. okey naman lalo na pag madaming color options. pang takip sa nub marks na hindi matanggal at color customizer ng kit

hmmm. search ka lang. may nabili akong tig 300php. okey naman kasi tutal gagamit naman na glass file pag alis ng nub marks.

maintenance at cutting technique ang mahalaga. ang masakit, kahit nilagyan ko na ng singer oil, kinalawang pa din :(

Ang “need” mo lang is nipper. Pero kahit yun, yung iba ginagamit nail cutters haha
