Gundam "MS-09 Challia's Rick Dom (GQ)" GQuuuuuuX - Started building this kit and really wanted to focus on removing the nubs left behind on the legs from the runners. Thinking of using masking tape to airbrush some camo on this build.

gMS-Ω GQuuuuuuX

Started painting the GQux and just can't get my head around the design yet. Sprayed the red pieces silver, and the yellow pieces gold. The white pieces have been sprayed gunship grey and the blue pieces dark blue. Planning to airbrush a light blue over the dark blue pieces and a light grey over the gunship grey pieces.

LM314V21 Victory Two Gundam "Ver.Ka" - Kit complete!
I did run into a few minor issues during the build. The thumb ball joint was too loose, so I had to glue the gun to the hand. Additionally, the arms were a bit brittle and kept popping off during the photoshoot.
Overall, it is a great kit and looks awesome.

I love taking photos of my finished kits. I also love bringing them into Adobe Photoshop and adding a bunch of HUD elements, backgrounds, lens flares, blur, etc.
Had a lot of fun with this kit, I practiced most of my disciplines: airbrushing, water slides, weathering.
My dosage is something like 1 MG for every 3 HGs. Off to the next build!

Brushing on Army Painter strong tone and removing with a paper towel to get some grime
So many decals on this kit, I finished off this step with another intermediate top coat of Tamiya TS-13 Clear. Next step will be some silver dry brush and Warpaints strong tone
I started applying the water slide decals I purchased online from Delpi decal ( www.delpidecal.com ).
So far I'm really pleased with the quality, the paper soaks up water evenly with a clean separation, making the whole experience consistent and quick.
Kit is mostly assembled and ready to begin adding the water slide decals I ordered from Delpi decal. The water slide decals the kit came with are great, but I'll use them just as a back up.
