MG Wing Gundam Ver Ka - Elysium Version
My second painted kit. I bought this kit in Surugaya during my trip to Japan. I picked it up on accident thinking it was the Proto Zero for really cheap (don't judge me I'm relatively new to gunpla and the Wing lineage is only just starting to make sense). After realizing my mistake I decided this would be perfect to practice some modeling techniques on and give it a good paint job.
I did rescribing, closed the seamline on the head, tightened up some joints and tried highlighting/preshading. I wanted to go for a pastel color look along with introducing some of that signature Katoki purple as the shading under the white. I absolutely love the final product. Just wish the arms weren't so janky and I could get some more poses, but just touching it causes the arms to fall off.
Did the entire thing using Gaahleri Kaleido colorworks, airbrushes and varnishes.
