This is a kit done in the MKII GB.
Target to achieve:
First, i need to give credit to Yasuhiro Imai (Dengeki Hobby Oct 2004). Basically, the color of this kit is almost 100% following the Dengeki Hobby that i have. Trying to achieve the kind of pastel dark blue in the magazine. In the end, i would say it's 80% similar to it. It's so much difficult to follow exactly the color i want due to the base white i had, which is quite inconsistent.
Also used tons of metal parts! Really happy with it, except it cost me a bum!
Pastel color with shinny Metal, it's the kind of effect this Gb is all about: Computer 3D Graphic finishing.
As for the Finishing, the flat coat i had is almost to the borderline of becoming silvering ady. Very light scratch will have visible scratch marks. However, the final finishing is almost rubber-like, Something similar to GFF.
Overall, a very fun build ^_^
C & C welcome!

sky_tokyodrifter: Thanks bro! Yeah, it was a big relief, especially after a whole month of digging square holes.
As for the metal thrusters, it's from HiQ parts. The bolt is from Alders Nest.
Bomber Vince, YGTan, masterqq: Thanks guys for the kind words. ^_^ My next few projects will be scale models mostly cars n bikes, need to ask advice very soon....... :P
