Agreed… lots of stencils or other small marks on it. Gives that appearance of a functional mechanism needing maintenance.

That's a cool looking beast Mike - despite it giving you problems.

Completed another one. The MG Gundam Kyrios. I started this one at the in-laws when SWMBO and my mother-in-law had a "craft" day. Still need to clear coat it and do a panel line wash.

Bravo! I read through this topic again and you can tell how much the subject clicks with you. It’s cool that you have this as a way to make models that celebrate the most beautiful design work; it may be fantasy but it has logic to it.
Make more models!

Thanks! I've always had a love for mech like Gundams. I grew up watching Robotech. Once I started building them, I got hooked.

Very striking colors! Looks great.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Nice! I still can’t get myself to pick up a Gundam kit no matter how hard I try. :bag:

You're just scared that you'll get hooked on them too. :giggles:
