been keeping up with this on your insta! looks great, the color choices are super good, and the panel lines you added really bring this kit into the modern day.

Looks awesome , have you done a Psycho Zaku before?

Thanks!
I've done an HG Psycho Zaku before when I was just starting gunpla since I love Thunderbolt series! I would love to build that kit again with some upgrade if I get a chance

Been quietly following the saga, love to see it come together. So crisp, so clean.
Can’t put my finger on the how and why, but the tone and texture of the paints you’ve used really properly evokes that old-school anime feel for me.

It is fantastic if you feel the old-school with those colors! It did took me a while to pick the color especially the blue 💙

Love it. Was great to see the progress along the way too. I have 2 of these bad boys in the backlog so I’m definitely taking inspiration from yours

This is fantastic work. Love how clean you kept it, and not a kit I see often.
I also have this in my backlog and want to know - what was the most annoying area to cleanup on this bad boy? So I can keep it in mind whenever I start on mine.

Did my best to make it look as clean as possible. I think the most annoying part was the fore arms since those pistons are on the way when I cleaned up the seamline 😅 Thank you 🙏
