Building a Gundam is Art! Custom-painted Susanowo Trans-AM HG Version!


Source

This is a Susanowo Gundam. The image above is the box cover image below is a built Susanowo Trans-AM mode, got the image from this site cause I was not able to capture any while building it.

This was actually a gift by @jassennessaj for my kid, haha, I have a 1-year old btw but I said 'Gundam' when he asked what to give Zion for his birthday and to my surprise, he shipped one. It was a Susanowo, HG.

The parts were of 3 colors: black, pink and magenta. As you can see in this image grabbed from the same source as above:

So, I have decided to paint it with a different color. Black and Silver. I used Spray Paint for this job.

By the way, it's only my first time to custom-paint a gundam build. I plan to do more like this so that Zion has a stash of Gundam! (He won't probably be allowed to play, stuck in a glass cabinet for him to look at and appreciate lol)


Here's Zion's Custom-painted Susanowo Trans-AM

Buildin a Gundam is not really that easy. Even if you're not painting it. You have to make sure to cut the parts clean. Not breaking any. Make sure you don't lose any piece at all. It also takes time to build, more than 2 hours. Painting it adds up to the difficulties.

The paint-over I did isn't that simple as well. If you look at the photos closely, it's not plain silver nor plain black. It has little speckles in it. I used two colors for it, varying how far or how much I spray onto a certain part.
