Well nope, the base for the red parts is the Titanium color, ontop of it I painted the clear red to make it red and a deep metallic color . And it`s Mr. Aqua Hobby Clear red. Look up tutorials about Candy colors the technique is similar
I though, what for tanks works, might do it here as well. Its my first Mech.. Think that it is a bit obersized for that scale, but not inacceptable, or unrealistic. Ok it is an constuct from another dimension and has higher powers, but the japanese seawater in the air seems to be stronger.. 😀
Thank you! Yes, this is my first kit. I did take time and care building it though. Panel lined with Fine Point Gundam Markers, and top coated with Winsor & Newton acrylic matt varnish.
Thank you for comment. That was not priming yet.. just showing the inner frame that amaze me to look at. As usual i will unassembled all parts to do painting.
I built the same one.It’s easy to transform, but not without scratching paints off. It’s Hinge Grade. 🙂 Everything hangs onto a hinge. I think Bandai intended this kit to be unpainted & played with. Ideally, buy two & build one as mecha & another as fighter jet & paint them the same colors.
Looks great. I really don’t like yellow on my kits, so yellow turns out gold in my case, but seeing it done like this with the shading, makes it look actually really nice!!!
They look great! Welcome to the hobby!!!
I’m trying to do a custom paint job on the HGBF Build Burning Gundam
