u got a lovely wife who can appreciate this hobby with you...

amazing... take modeling to another level.

BTW been drooling on this kit for years, been seeing it at some shops in taiwan but ended up not buying it...

My first hgbf, certainly not the last... Really impressed with hg quality these day. My last hg is aile strike.

kinda want to custom color to MAS color scheme as tribute to latest incident
hope I wont get bash for this

I think its an interesting way to show tribute
Do post when u're finished

As long as the mobile suit not a grunt unit, I think is OK. Maybe a resilient ms such as exia repair, since it later upgraded to be more powerful.

kinda elaborate why cant use grunt unit? some grunt have better look in MAS Color like ReZEL, or Overflag
thats a bias view to use only main cast as main highlight

edit: dont have any best gunpla to custom paint, HG Arios is likely my target, Overflag is already custom painted sigh

Because grunt unit are destined to be destroyed.

Agreed, or simply call them 'firework' units.

Cannon Fodders you guys meant

Yes. Kinda disrespectful.

one hell of a painting job needed huhuhu



one of the most beautiful sticker i've seen..
the gold and green part were printed on the backside of it....


shame on you MG Turn X

again, thats a bias view
you guys are feeding by the "destined to be destroyed" in anime, nothing to do with gunpla
gunpla is scaled model, the way to expressing your passion in plastic modelling

I support all the grunts and main suit as long it have better view of gunpla should be, some of them I initially hate but its turn out grow(like) with me

Well said, naz.

It could still be the protagonist's Gundam, but that doesn't mean it didn't get destroyed in the movie.

The act of painting a Gunpla with the intention of creating a homage itself is praiseworthy, and it is not judged by that person's choice of Gunpla. I think even a heavily weathered Zaku II with a tiny painted Malaysian flag across its shoulder pauldron would look excellent. Now where did I put my picture of Merdeka Gundam 00Q...?

Well, you did asked us to provide feedback whether it's disrespectful or not. If you content with your view, then just do it.

thats not a feedback, more like an opinion since most of us dont do custom painting, I know you dont do custom painting
feedback more like someone who already did/experience it

and thats not my view, thats a general view of gunpla, no bias between 'grunt' or 'protagonist/main suit'
many gunpla modeller do custom painting regardless it is grunt or not as long as they found fit with their choices

that with all the words, I decided to use my existing HG Arios which is main suit rather than grunts

Lol this is kind of silly.

A grunt unit might not be a GUNDAM, but it is still a Gunpla. As simple as that.

apa gaduh, do whatever u want la.... it's still a toy..
for age 14 and above
