I love the muv-luv designs. Though this kit makes the shoulders on the Raptor look enormous.

I’ve been really enjoying Build Fighters. Me and some of my internet buddies watch it together every week on synchtube. I hop e some of the new suits recently revealed get models before long.

A lot like that yeah. I think the Sengoku’s black shows through a lot more, but I realize the anime is gonna do things that can’t be perfectly replicated. I should have picked a model that was less tricky with it’s paint! I’ve bookmarked your site and I’ll be watching and looking forward to your Sengoku build.

I’ve ordered the MG Sengoku, but I’m sure the paint ideas will be applicable to the HG version too. But be warned, I’ve got a large backlog and won’t be getting to it for a while.

Airbrush and Gunpla! 9 years agoI only recently got a decent airbrush (Iwata neo) and I’ve been experimenting with it a lot – get messy, make mistakes as Miss Frizzle would say. But I’d like to use it on my HG Sengoku Astray to help me get the right kind of reflective red/black sheen the gundam has in the anime. The flat red plastic just isn’t doing it for me. Any advice?

like this perhaps? http://www.graemenattress.com/wp/10/ – the effect is a “candy coat”. The basic idea is you lay down layers of paint to produce the effect. For that I used Alclad gloss black followed by Alclad chrome followed by Tamiya clear red. Once my Sengoku arrives, I plan to do something similar with it….

Pie in the sky 9 years agoOne thing I’d like to do one day is get buy a model Reventon (or Aventador) and paint it like Gundam Unicorn’s Unicorn mode and then get a Veneno and paint it up like Destroy mode. A bit beyond my skill level at the moment! But maybe one day.

I love the both the Phenex and the Sengoku. Working on an HG Sengoku soon and hope to get the paint the same kind of red/black satin look from the show. And hey two partial gundam kits for free equals one kit bash!

Hi Syd and Ryan!
I just finished catching up on the previous episodes (phew!) I’d like to ask about painting my HG Sengoku Astray. In the show the red parts are actually this glossy red/black like this […]
