@Akaru88 That looks fantastic! Wonderful metallic color. I'd be tempted just to display it like that (although I just love Zaku and Zaku adjacent suits)
I would love to display it with no armor, but unfortunately, it’s Gundam Marker EX which doesn’t look the same after topcoat and doesn’t tolerate UV light very well either.
@Akaru88 You painted all of that with a Gundam Marker? And here I thought airbrushing the inner frame was too much work. Fantastic job.
Gorgeous!

I’m sort of new to this—but do you paint each piece of the frame individually and then assemble it or?
I personally assemble the kit so that I can decide on what needs paint then I take everything apart, paint it, and put it back together again. I have heard of people that paint will the parts on the runner then cut them out and assemble, but I don’t like that method because it leads to needing to notch up nub marks and it’s hard to get a good result that way.
Do you organize the pieces by letter to keep them straight?
