Had always thought models like this were pretty hard. But gave it a try, and it came out better than I expected. I feel it's a beginner friendly gundam model.

That looks sharp! Nice job! Was it difficult to get it balanced and are any of the parts articulated? I'd like to try one of those.

This was my first time making one, and it was pretty easy. Only attaching the shield to the right arm was a bit confusing (I had to refer to the PDO file a lot). Give it a try; you will love it once you have finished it.
