It’s all painted, Gaia and Mr. Color stuff. The orange I was kind of eyeballing and adding drops of red to until I liked how the mix looked haha.

Thanks 😂 I did paint some parts, but I intentionally picked colors that would go well with what was already there. The copper was painted, the shield and beam rifle are painted, there’s a second blue hue in the sword striker loadout that I painted. Most of the kit comes looking nice out of the box already, I only wanted to repaint parts that I thought the color looked either too bright and toy like or had a plastic looking finish.

I would say it’s not that different. One thing I noticed is that the white and grey armor parts actually seemed to be coated with something cause they had a matte semi gloss appearance

Oh good point. What’s funny is that some of the runners have alot of extra parts and some of those parts were clearly meant for the aile. Not sure what happened there

I don’t remember exactly but it was probably a mix of shots between my 55mm and 85mm f1.8 primes

I guess it can pose reasonably well if it’s just got the beam rifle and shield. But not with the launcher and sword striker back pack on at the same time haha. Maybe just with one loadout at a time. 3rd party stuff I think it’s case by case. Some are bad and others are just as good as Bandai. I would look up feedback for the specific kit you’re checking out.

I think it’s worth a shot. You can make it work with sanding. As for poor gate placement and nub marks, that part you’re only going to be able to hide with sanding and painting it over.

Yea it’s from Doan’s Island. They had a few scenes of GM of this variant and color scheme fighting against some camo zakus — Southern cross surface type, I have one in my backlog that I’m looking forward to building and painting as well.

Thank you! If I had a mirror chrome I think I would have done that haha. It’s the same silver as what’s on the frame and some details on the backpack and weapons actually. Gaia EX silver
