    I noticed that my SOC GunBuster has a chip of paint missing from the groin. He fell a couple of days ago, but I didn't notice it until tonight when I was taking some pics. I want to touch it up with some paint, obviously I will have to mix my own color.

    Any advice? Anything I shouldn't do to make it worse?

    It really depends... touching up chips on die-cast is a harrowing task with mixed results... you're likely best just leaving it alone...
