So I had an armorless Sol Road Runner remaining after I stole her legs and gave them to Sol Hornet. I took this as an opportunity to try my hands at kitbashing and painting.

I had a HG Age-1 Full Glansa that I used for the armored parts. It was already built but was one of my earlier gunplas so I wasn't particularly happy with it, making it a prime candidate. The main part I modified are the thigh parts, the inside of it is a mangled mess, bit it looks ok from the outside.

I only painted Warhammer minis before, and I guess this could be comparable to painting a vehicle. But the joints make the painting process more painful. If I ever do another repaint, I have to get an airbrush, brush painting large parts is never a fun time.

I really love this kit. Just an awesome mech girl with loads of decals. And Kotobukiya decals are a joy to apply, even if I wasn't precise with it everywhere.

Unfortunately you need Sol Road Runner as well to get the armored legs, but it was worth it. I'll probably try painting and kitbashing with the leftovers, or I guess I could just leave Road Runner in unarmored mode. But that would be less fun.

The Motocompo is its in own box whithin the box. The Sousai girl Emma has quite a bit more parts than Alice. Both should be fun though.
