Nearly done with quanta just some panel lining left to do on some parts:

I am overall happy with the end result. The head kind off pisses me off since the panel lines on the face I had to do by hand the grooves were too shallow even for doing a panel wash. Also my first time doing the whole "panel wash" thing instead of a fine gundam marker. It worked out pretty well for the most part.

No poses you say? well those are to come after finals week!

Strike Freedom Gundam and God Gundam. Low quality picture, but you get the idea. They look beautiful and mean as hell in person.

badass build 00nissanninja, I really like those silver-grayish inner parts. What type of paint did you use?

Great builds Dark, any thoughts of painting either? Btw, doesn't the MG SF give you an action base?

I got 2 action bases with Strike Freedom, but I haven't built them yet. I don't think I would paint Strike Freedom because I did a lot of polishing and detailing in it already. It looks really shiny in real life.

Thanks! I used tamiya metallic grey for those parts. That paint sprays really easy, makes very nice even coats. I'll also be using it for the rest of the panel lining. I used it on some parts for panel lining and it looks pretty sweet so far. Just waiting for the paint to cure some more.

I had a god gundam a long time ago, I broke it though (and shinning gundam just didn't stay together well)...Takes me back to hearing "burning finger!!!!!!!!" I can see some of that shine off of strike freedom well done

Age-3 Does look like a pretty awesome gundam. Waiting for the next unicorn gundam as I watch zeta gundam. I think that might be the next kit I build. That or gundam epyon.

For those of you who watched the Age-3 episode, did you guys notice this in the opening theme song?


Looks like we're going to have a Vagan/Gundam hybrid mobile suit!!!

^Yeah I did see that! I was thinking "looks like zeheart and the vagan's are getting tired of the ever evolving gundam." Honestly it took them long enough expected something sooner. I was wondering if they were going to figure out how to make there own age system from the sounds of ep.29 it seemed like they might be on their way.
