For a first attempt, its very good wor!
Shading might b a bit strong but i'm sure yr subsequent kit will b better!
Kudos!


I dun hav ab... :(
was afraid the shading might not be obvious, might have over done it a little haha:D

for hand paint, I used tamiya weathering master:s12:
some parts used airbrush for shading
not bad ar.
as wat mention before, ur shading too strong. esp the feet. look almost like
weathered.
else, everything was quite well done. :)

u mean the red part? that's done using weathering master so it might not look as natural as the waist part(red)
yea...kinda rojak... some airbrush and some handbrush(with weathering master)

can tell the difference in certain parts, but overall quite satisfied since it's meant to brush up my painting skills:s22:

where got flaws :sad:

looks so good I feel jelly :(

hmm...some parts frosted due to spraycan topcoat
some parts the paint got scratched/chipped when assembling
managed to minimize the damage

overall a good experience, hopefully the next kit will be better
intend to test out panel scribing and adding rivets in the future:D

think he's gonna use it for the psychoframe
a gloss black base would be recommended

thinking of testing out yellow candy gloss as a substitute for gold, hopefully can give the bling of hyaku shiki/akatsuki
