Started this project last month haven’t have time to finish due to no cash and busy schedule I do plan on finishing it up and painting all the detail before I start school next year. View
The Sword Impulse is done. This is my very first painted MG kit and it has some flaws but I like how it turned out. Definitely the most time consuming build I have done so far.
PG chars zaku 2 wip. Finally got the eye to light up after much swearing at the wiring 🙂 slow progress due to work and other commitments but its a great build and highly recommended if you can get hold of one at a good price.
Got those last parts top coated, finished the assembly and applied the water slide decals today. Everything is back apart and ready for one last spray of dull coat.
First, I sprayed them with a clear lacquer dull coat so my paints would stick. Next, I sprayed Tamiya clear red to change the original pink color. After that, I carefully sprayed some Tamiya white on the ends of each beam effect part followed with some more Tamiya Clear Yellow on top of the white fading into the red.

Just waiting for the top coat to dry so i can finish the assembly of the head. I couldn’t get the water slide to look right to me, so i used a sharpie to color in the lens on the mono eye. Testing with an LED light seems to have a nice effect, so hopefully the LED i order will work.
I’m using some crappy acrylics but with pretty solid results. The light green is called palm leaf, the dark green is English ivy and the purple is purple pansy. They are cheap crafting acrylics, but i have been thinning them and getting them to work out for me. also I’m using krylon crystal clear acrylic top coat if you were curious.
The paints you are using for the copper look amazing and your weathering effects are quite breath taking. Air brush work im guessing? Can’t wait to see this kit finished.
Thank you. I used the dry brush technique and tamiya weathering master B for the weathering. I started off using the airbrush but found that I can get better detail on models this small using other methods
Progress from the last few days. I was hoping having all of the assembly completed last night, but I forgot to topcoat the last pieces of the backpack so I have to quit there…
Well. This is the first model kit i have ever build. from ” Gundam build fighters ” Anime. It all started couple months ago i was trying to find some ,Mecha, Anime to watch….
Getting back on the Sazabi until my package arrives from HLJ. The whole chest is done and decals are on, so its just waiting on a final top coat. Getting ready to start up on the head and then its on to the weapons, to prevent getting weapons block on this kit
here is my sinanju stien so far. i screwed up on a few peices like the thrusters on one of the legs (broke) and hands, but in certain areas the mistakes look like battle damage. Since I am a former M1A1 tanker I thought it looked good on the paint. will post more soon.
