Still A Work In Progress. I Havent Been Spending Time On Any Gundams, Kinda Burnt Out. Technically Sandrock

Still a work in progress. I haven’t been spending time on any gundams, kinda burnt out. Technically sandrock isn’t done either cause have to make custom decals on the shotels. Heavyarms still has a bit of work but It’s slowly coming along.

Anyway these are probably my favorite builds so far. Made my own custom colors and did a unique color shading thing that I like.

Esentially my gundam wing project. Wing gundams blue has changed since.

Recently changed the blue on my RX-78. I originally went for more realistic colors but I really fell in love with the verka blue. I may use this color on something else in the future.

Im half considering re-doing the red too.

Scroll down for progress updates! I haven't been in a good mental place the past few days. So I decided to paint the second gunpla I ever ow

XXXG-01D

Since I’ve been working on a new deathscythe I thought I’d give a bit of a call back to the first gundam I have ever painted and take new photos. I was so new to this and extremely impatient. Lots of silvering on the decals, nibs that weren’t properly sanded down, paint defects. I destroyed a few decals and used some of the transfer decals for some parts. I really had no idea what I was doing. I’m still learning but I have learned so much since then. Most of all I’ve learned to take my time. Painting these gundams is a therapy to me. It’s one of my many anchors, so I just wanna thank all of you who compliment or show interest in these as I’m doing them ❤️❤️❤️
