I figured, now’s as good a time as any to get started on that La+ project. #ガンプラ
Ten runners on the base kit, plus an extra four for the special shield. Runner A1 is completely made up of clear parts (which is awesome—won’t have to paint them!). #ガンプラ
And there it is: Runner B for the inner frame, with clear and opaque parts molded together. Amazing stuff from Bandai—but it’s gonna be a pain to paint around. #ガンプラ
Gotta start somewhere so:
Feet…of possibility. #ガンプラ
Legs of possibility. #ガンプラ
Waist of possibility. #ガンプラ
Torso of possibility… #ガンプラ
…now with arms of possibility! #ガンプラ
Head of possibility. #ガンプラ
Backpack of possibility. #ガンプラ
Weapons of possibility. #ガンプラ
Shield of possibility... #ガンプラ
…that is the base for the Super Shield of possibility!
Snap build’s done. As long as you’re careful it’s a great kit out of the box.
Gonna have to take my time with this one to figure out how to paint around the clear parts and transformation gimmicks. That and I have ideas for detail work. #ガンプラ
Parts of possibility (again). Sanded and ready for paint prep.
There are supposed to be two shades of white plus a light gray. Still thinking about how to pull that off. #ガンプラ
In the end, I think these are the only multi-molded pieces whose opaque parts I’m gonna have to paint.
These are parts for the feet, shoulders, and sleeve. #ガンプラ
Decals. #ガンプラ
Paint, decals, and topcoat done on the first wave of parts. On to the second wave! #ガンプラ
Done with decals and topcoat on the second wave of parts. On to the last wave! #ガンプラ
Sigh. Why is black so much easier to spray than white? #ガンプラ
Two words: liquid mask. #ガンプラ
Hello, Banagher. #ガンプラ
Re:assembly of possibility. #ガンプラ
Homestretch! Up next: final assembly. #ガンプラ
It’s about time to unleash The Beast (of Possibility). #ガンプラ
RX-0 Unicorn Gundam (Unicorn Mode). #ガンプラ
RX-0 Unicorn Gundam (Destroy Mode). #ガンプラ
Unicorn at rest. #ガンプラ
Unicorn in action. #ガンプラ
And that’s a wrap! What a build it was.
RG 1/144 ユニコ—ンガンダム完成だからLa+プログラムが終わりです!
