lol thanks! this was a cheap organizer i found at the tacklebox section for fishing at the big box store. i bought all 3 sizes and this biggest one was originally intended as my upright paint bottle organizer (4 rows when the dividers are removed) but later found a better paint organizer. it was a metal grill cutlery organizer which i figured was…[Read more]
I’ve always liked desert camo. I thought it would look good on the Mark II. I also just wanted a Gundam model that wasn’t so brightly colored, but a little more muted.
It’s a great idea IMHO! Had to look at it a few times, and I have to say, it looks better and better the more I look at it. It’s also a very original color scheme.

they’ll eventually be…
Looks fine from here. It looks like the back of the missile pods have some wear to them, so you could have fooled me. So it’s not bad hand painting, it’s an awesome painting job with weathering 😉
If you don’t mind me asking, how did you get that cool effect on the red at the front of the pods? Looks really great!
