Looking good, just enough white to break up the red tones, and some grey for added contrast.

Thanks. I'm thinking of making the DRAGOONs red, and the backpack itself maroon.

That's exactly what I was going for. I didn't want it to be over...powered? I guess...by red, like some Gundams...



Don't get me wrong, I love the Astraea type F, but it is a bit of a sea of red.

It looks good,really like how the grey follows the frame.I'm on the last of the painting and the first steps of coating now.Minor setbacks here and there,but hopefully by friday I should be done with mine.

First half of the matte coating should be done by tomorrow.Half to apply a second coat to the other half of the build,so it'll be ready for completion Friday.Looking really good so far,contemplating decal choices.I have the normal yellow stripes I'm might put on,might not,but I also have small warnings signs and labels I can put on around it.

Done and done.I present the GM Striker Custom.For my first paint job,not too bad.Really had troubles with it,which is why it doesn't look that great,but you can't learn without mistakes.I can't wait to see everyone else's though.I know they'll blow mine out of the water.lol

The biggest problem is that the paint keeps wearing off the model,so he's now stuck in that pose perm.lol
